Transformers: The Last Knight

Hopefully they do unicron properly, the way devastator was portrayed as basically a mindless dog was stupid.
 
Never really liked the movies I think they went to modern in look for the cars and got the transforming sound wrong. For me its like remaking star wars with vader without the breathing sound.
Transfomer: the movie is still the best transformer film around, always impressed me the voice actors used. Orson wells, leonard nimoy etc

Well its in there but with the transformations on the 3d models taking a while it still wouldn't seem right even if it was the original sound. In the cartoons the sound basically lasted the length of the transformations, not so in the Bay movies.
 
People love to hate Michael Bay and the re-boot of the transformers franchise but the $$$ and successes including toy and mechanising sales speak for themselves.

What does that have to do with the films quality?*





*Hint, nothing.
 
These films are so impossibly long. The second one bored me to tears - was just about to put on 'extinction' as a lazy Monday night film and it's 2 hours 45 mins wtf!!
 
Why are they still churning these out :confused:

I saw the first one years ago and thought it was meh. Made the mistake of starting to watch the second one when i was bored one evening and gave up on it.

They all look exactly the same garbage to me? People still lapping this junk up?

They have a massive audience in China and other parts of the East. It's the same with movies like 'Ice Age'.
 
If ever there was a movie series ripe for rebooting...

Damn right. It saddens me what Bay has done to the franchise. What grates the most is how he fails completely at developing the characters of any of the Transformers - you know, the interesting part - and focuses on human characters nobody gives a damn about. But hey, it has stuff exploding in slow motion ... :rolleyes:
 
I won't go near a film once i see michael bays name on it.

Just a load of cobbled together cgi action scenes and explosions with minimal plot in between.

Absolute tosh.

If you don't watch them, then why are you in here whining about them being made?

Obviously they must still be pulling in the cash.

Some people must be easily entertained is all i can say.

I think all the easily entertained people you are referring to is the target audience i.e. children :p

I watched them due to nostalgia, I never thought they would be oscar worthy or made for adults. The first was decent enough for a film about transforming robots interacting with humans but then they just kept making them longer and longer but some parts are still entertaining enough.

The audience for these films aren't critical, cynical, adult internet forum users :D
 
Have to admit to really liking the first Transformer / MBay adaption - its no Se7en, Shawshank or Inception but still imo a good fun film - but after that they went down hill fast

I dont even mind Shia too much, he isnt likely to win any oscars any time soon - if you dont take his parts too seriously its usually good "escapist" fun


Also really like Armageddon and The Rock which Michael Bay directed, although he has done a lot of shockingly terrible movies since then
