see? nobody cares about michael bay's latest cinematic abortion. this forum is dying. the movie sucked. oh well, i guess this versus theme might keep it on life support for a time.
so please, either join the chorus of "i told you so" or feel free to spit your hate, venom, and blatant denial in the general direction of those of us who were correct all along.
thread closure? doesnt really matter, since if its closed it will still likely remain on page one of this forum indefinately.

I expected a Transformers movie, I got a Transformers movie.
Considering I wasn't expecting Generation 1, I don't consider it any more of an abortion than making Optimus Prime a gorilla.
I liked it, that's not denial. That's me saying yes, I liked the movie. Could have been better, could have been far worse, but I liked it. Now you may jump on it.
Look at you, what kind of a name is "Schecter"? Pfft. More like Recter (Rectum.).
Recter? damn near killed her. wakka wakka wakka!!!
you'd like like, wouldnt you? so would i.
anyway, with a critique like "could have been far worse" i wouldnt say you're in denial. so you saw some quality in it. while i disagree, i can respect your opinion. its just all these people treating it like the second coming whom i feel desperately need to face reality.
-Anal Cavity. hahahahaha
i would have called it "giant robots which transform into various vehicles which you'll have no empathy for whatsoever"

yes yes, excellent way to defend your precious movie. maybe you should use that energy to contribute to this forum...expand it beyond two pages a page and half

Do you genuinely believed if they looked human it would be better?
They are giant, transforming, sentient robots from another world, remember.
If anything, they could have used Alternators forms, since those look like real cars and also cool robots, but again, mass shifting wasn't allowed (If it'd even be needed in that case.).
I liked the movie, I enjoyed it. Too much human involvement which I hope will be changed next time, but yeah, I liked it. Not without flaw, but I don't think it needs to be overly slated just because mugs are going overboard, which is what I feel you're doing.
Honestly, you pretty much had the noose around Bay's neck at the time concept art was released.
Re: Re: Re: Re: the official "hahaha i was right" thread
ac, you missed the point about empathy. now be honest: did you care when jazz was ripped in half? did you even give half a shit?
i know i didnt. they had no humanity to them, which is what set the G1 series apart. it wasnt about character designs and storylines necessarily, but about character developement and great voice acting...imho.
apart from prime, i really didnt care. and what of prime? was it really character developement on the part of the film, or simply the sweet nostalgia of the original series pulling at our heartstrings?
if you're happy with mindless robots with whom we have no empathy, then fine. my point however is that i as well as many are not...at all. and yes for us its enough to kill the point of the story.
yeah, got that jpeg in my profile. thanks again for your well thought and relevant contributions. i feel so intellectually humbled by your hotlinking skillz.
