Ive listened to the original transformers album more times than I can remember!
I always wanted Hot Rod in these films. Saddens me.
At least he already has some footage ready and waiting from The Island![]()
seriously why couldn't Bay just copy and paste that whole plot scene by scene word for word into the movie?
He could still have his over the top action scenes so why not? How is it even possible to ruin a story from transformers? Any one of us could have made a better plot then Bay's attempts
I think Bay knows that he uses Unicron in one of his movies it'll be because he intends it to be the last Transformers movie he makes. I'm sure he's 'saving' that one
Went to see this today and OMG this is a terrible terrible film.
Bay has hit a new low with this, i am a transformer fan from the 80s and for me the films went like this;
1 = really enjoyed
2 = was good, but not as good as 1
3 = watchable considering all the points to take into account like continuity of story etc
4 = Awful
The film consists of terrible acting, ive seen wahlberg do some decent acting but in the this, horrendous, but not compared to the guy who plays shane, jack raynor, he made wahlberg look amazing, that guy was as wooden as wooden gets.
The story inconsistency compared to the previous films is just cringe worthy, apart from the third film forgetting the 1st two, and transformers were here thousands of years ago, apparently now
they visited us 25 millions years ago and were actually the reason the dinosaurs were made extinct as they devoured our world to create the metal that made them or something like that.
I know this happened in the other films but it was just amazing how many times optimus prime was at deaths door and then the next scene he's fine again, if you've seen the trailer, when they find him, and revive him, bits are falling off him, he's leaking and all that, basically barely alive. Prime says to wahlbergs character he needs the autobots to repair him, they have a conversation and wahlberg says what about me, you then see some scenes of him doing metal work and welding and all that, then the bad guys come, battle ensues, they escape and then prime drives down the road and just scans a truck and he's brand new WTF, why didnt he and every other autobot in the previous films do that and survive????
I can keep going, the list is frankly endless as to how bad this film was, like i said i was and still am a big transformers fan, i enjoyed the first three to one degree or another, regardless of there faults, especially in the third film but this is just cack!!! oh and galvatron is in the film but he's a truck for the love of god, a bloody truck i.e. a copy of optimus prime
The only things i will give this film is that the action sequences were very well done, and graphically impressive etc, and i did like howgalvatron was made
I am being generous though, the film is utter garbage.

Transformers 2 was on CH4 last night and I watched it again until i got bored.
I dont get how a man can put his name to films that are so truly awful?
Megan Fox is ridiculously good looking but other than that I want every character to shut up and die. His parents? Seriously. Every American "hero" soldier...
Does Bay have a hand is designing the terrible little Stereotype Jewish/Italian transformers that sound like something out of a Marx brothers film..?
Does he have a hand in the VFX "choreography" of the fight scenes (which are the 2nd reason after the Fox to watch the film but even they can get nauseatingly over the top and always involve a head being ripped off or full rib cage piercing from behind...)
Anyway.... No freaking way would i pay £12 to watch this....If its still on at my local cheap £4 cinema i might, just so i can slate Micheal bay some more... lol
He needs to get away from butchering my childhood memories.
I saw this last night, awful awful awful film, I went with a lass who is a huge transformers fan and we were both waiting for the film to end so we could leave.
Both enjoyed the first 3, as they are just popcorn movies. Main problem with this one is its just constant fighting, which gets tedious after about 40 minutes, no real storeline, plot holes aplenty and just general WTF moments.
