Don't like it? Don't watch it. Seems like a simple solution to me.
Pissed about how it was made? Make a career change and see how well you could pull it off. If you can't? Cry about it. Both have the same level of affect on me.
one is a bit funnier though. . .

They are going to screw up whatever they put into the movie. They messed up the Fallen (A flaming herald of Unicron in the comics reduced to an old man) Jetfire (A giant badass in the show reduced to an... old man) and they killed Jazz (One of the only G1 characters to survive the cartoon movie). Case in point, Bay and his team are going to kill everything Transformers then move on to another 80's cartoon and kill it off too.Sir Ollie said:
They would likely make Grimlock an old man, Swoop his wife, Snarl(Slag) a junkie, and Sludge a hippy. Now ask yourself, WOULDN'T THEY?
The movies they made wouldn't have been any better if they had ten times the budget, because money isn't the only thing needed to make a good movie. In fact, from a certain point on, it's probably the least thing needed to make a movie good.cuddly_tomato said:
No, it pretty much has been that way all the time. Those forgettable movies from the past... well, they are forgotten, only the important ones survived, that's why you might get the impression there were almost only great movies made back then.cuddly_tomato said:
The amount of popcorn-cinema might have been increased, but if that's the case, it's only because ~70% of today's theatrical releases don't even gross the production costs. You can't blame the producers to shit out shiny new versions of movies you've already seen a billion times, because that's the stuff the companies need to survive.
"You didn't like Eyes Wide Shut? Well, next time, I'll try with Shitty Movie #7: The Revenge, maybe that will make it"
He does indeed. I do agree that the amount of 'deep' movies has been on the decrease, which is a shame, but at the same time I certainly do NOT want every director taking their shots at creating that kind of experience... if I were Michael Bay I probably would've dialed down the bad jokes, screentime for humans and amount of military hardware in Transformers 2, but there's nothing wrong with doing what you're best at, and in Bay's case that's explosions and SFX. Sometimes a safe bet is just that, and in my book that's not a bad thing.cuddly_tomato said:
Oh, a few more things.
While District 9 certainly wasn't bad, I cannot for the life of me understand why the majority of film buffs everywhere hail it as something akin to the second coming of Jesus.
And in my opinion David Lynch can suck it. Over-analyze it all you want, Lost Highway was an incoherent bowl of snot.
Crap Director? Michael Bay is a genius! As much as I think his movies make absolutely no sense, you have to admit: he knows how to sell this crap. He knows that most people who watch his movies don't care about plot; they just want to see explosions every two seconds, so why should he deliver anything different? Just look at how much money he's bringing in.cuddly_tomato said:
So your saying that leg humping robots / dog humpings repeatedly on the big screen is directed towards my inner child? Sorry but there was nothing good about either transformer movie, I honestly would rather them never made a big hit with this franchise and let this craptastic movie deal die out with the first one, sadly thats asking a lot. Oh and I did play with the toys...and the Jazz I played with and the one on the big screen were far from the same autobot. I lose respect for people who defend shitty movies ^_^ (without legitimate brain damage of course)Spacefly said:
Ugh... Another 2 hours of people I don't care about instead of robots kicking the shit out of each other.
I enjoyed them both, I really don't see the problem with him making a 3rd film, plus the guy (from what the OP quoted) does some charity work too. I look forward to Transformers 3
I would say to Michael Bays what I said about the last two "Bad Bays! You do not do that again!" -smacks across the head-
OT: I don't HATE Bays' films per se, just don't care for the abundance of explosions in them.

Then Michael Bay is even more utterly pathetic than I thought possible. He should just grow some balls, have a heart and stop raping my childhood icons. Hollywood should just learn that a remake cannot be done well.Timotei said:
Har hear, Never understood what everyone was complaining about. Hollywood hasn't made a great movie in year's and anybody who tells me that avatar is the exception is completely full of themselves. Compared to the rest of the trash out there transformers is perfectly adequate and up to par.canadamus_prime said:
I liked Part one, they fucked up the story in Part 2 (all of a sudden Shiloh LeBitch has a code in his head! c'mon son) but the fight scenes was good.
I've never seen any of the Transformers films (haven't felt any desire) but I'm such they're not tooo bad. They're just like every other commercial Hollywood film with a lot of focus on special effects (correct me if I'm wrong).
John Malkovich is good though so... Still don't feel the need to see it though.
