I've just been raped.

Just going to leave these here. They evidence why Michael bay is a hack and how all the transformers films are identical in both script and layout. They're a con designed to get your money from you:





Can't link the video as it's on their website but worth watching too

Oh sorry, just to clarify, I will not be watching transformers 4. If I ever do watch it (nope), I'm certainly not paying for it.

My brother loved Transformers 4. He said that a lot of the bullshit was cut out(Shia mostly) and that it featured less annoyances and was just a strait up popcorn movie. Transformers is no a glorious movie it is just action, the film is based off a mother fucking Hasbro toy line for crying out loud. So you should never expect a deep film. You have to take it for what it is and for what it is worth it is great although the 3rd sucked.
Transformers by no means should ever be taken as a serious film and this is why people dislike it because they shove it into a box it was never made to fit within. I did not see this 4th Transformers(very sad) but I will eventually. You have to take films for what they are and never under or over hype them. I have never paid to see a Transformers film with the expectation that it will show me the meaning of life.
I pay to go see SHIT GET FUCKED UP! That is what it is about!

To be fair I must disagree.

I can certainly empathise with the whole 'I just want to see an action film', but transformers isn't an action film, it's vomit on a screen. I left transformers 3 about 20 minutes before the ending because I was getting a migraine. I didn't feel like I'd missed anything. Hell I've still not watched transformer 2 and I don't think I missed anything by not watching it either.

Michael bay has rehashed the same script 4 times, and people still pay to see it. I'm not one of these people that hates Michael bay because he just makes the same format movie over and over, I hate him because he makes the actual same movie, and they all suck balls. The scripts are simplistic, almost childish, the characters are forgettable, the humour is childish, borderline sexist in some cases, and the famed action scenes are often so confusing and mind numbingly complex that you lose all focus on what's going on as your brain tries to compute who is fighting who and what forgettable robot character is trying to kill which forgettable robot character.

Again, it's down to personal taste. But there are action films out there which have less than half the budget, and less than half the 'action', which are still 10x better to watch and lose yourself in. I cite one example, dredd, which I thought I'd hate, but actually turned out to be fucking awesome owing to how simplistic and light tough it actually was.
