Unfortunately, people judging other people for what they like is a part of life, it doesn't matter what it is, someone out there will think you're a lesser person for liking something.
Best thing to do is to just let it go, and realize that the person "the judger" does not really fully comprehend things like "taste" and "subjectivity".

glad I could help you get a quick laugh out of this at my expense.josephmatthew10 said:
even funnier. I'm DEAD serious. I'm not saying the plot events are good. just that they're better than watchmen. well at least one of them i can think of is.
In other words I'm not complimenting neopets but rather I'm insulting watchmen.
You're gonna have to face it: Transformers is not Vertigo. Or anywhere close to Hitchcock. No where close to Lucas or Spielsberg for that matter, and they raped their best movies.
If you like watching flashing lights, that's fine, but some people like to be well read in cinema. They will tend to look down on a movie they deem to have just been made to cash in and "exploit" their beloved medium.
Also when the hour-and-a-half flashy light-athon consistantly out sells the art house movies, Hollywood will continue to make more and more flashy lights and less art houses for the film students. That's when the flm students get pissed. That's part of the reason why I hate going to the movies now.
What I'm trying to say is if you like it that's fine. I love the Rush Hour movies and they weren't winning any awards. But there's also some industry politics behind it and some people are going to hate that movie for their own reasons.

Am I the only person that thinks "wow, that looks awesome", it really appeals to my inner child.Jazoni89 said:
Is it really plagiarism when its Michael Bay stealing Michael Bay's idea's?, can he like, sue himself?
I really don't agree with everyone arguing over subjective opinions like they are facts.
Then stop climbing on top of buildings to proclaim your love for Transformers 3? I don't know. People tend not to give a shit what other people think until they go and make a spectacle of themselves, just look at the fans of the Twilight saga. If it's a guilty pleasure or you "just happen to like it" then there's really no reason for you to exonerate yourself in my presence (although I'll admit I'm flattered by the concept), much less an internet forum.
I've never really been interested in the Transformers cartoons as a kid, nor the movies as an adult. Sure, I accompanied a few friends to them over the weekend for my "Summer Action flick" fix, but it's not like I had any nostalgic investment in them. They were just explosion scenes interlaced with a few plot threads, nothing else (to me). It was Skyline [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skyline_%28film%29] (2010) from the perspective of the invading alien robots and their compromised human sidekicks.
That's my viewpoint of the franchise, at least. You're welcome to your own, but now you have a little back story to my confusion over why people keep bickering about "Transformers this" and "Transformers that" on the internet. C'mon people, this is some really petty stuff right here. Wouldn't our collective time be better spent arguing over the more important things in life, such as whether the Xbox 360 is better than the Playstation 3, Cthulhu vs. Gamera, or Who would win in a fight between Mercury and Hercules?

Seriosuly, fuck those guys. Elitist douchebags annoy me so much. I liked the first Transformers, the second one not so much, and I intend to see Transformers 3, though not in cinemas.
People just like to ***** because it's not all poignant. Yes, the plotlines aren't great, but I thought they were alright. Nothing to write home about, but they weren't terrible. But apparently these days having opinions contrary to what other geeks think is taboo.

Let's put it this way, what you just said is the musical equivalent of saying Justin Biebr is better than Dream Theater.
It's your opinion, and if you enjoy it then, go watch it again instead of watching Watchmen. Good thing about the world today is that there is enough variety of any material to suit any taste.
It's hard to argue your taste is "wrong" because... it's a taste. People like whatever they like. It is, however, extremely hard to take you seriously. Take that for what it is.

I haven't seen the new Transformers yet, but I will do. I loved the first and second, it's great. Watchmen however I think was horrible. It was boring as hell and made no sense, because honestly I just didn't care about anyone in that film.
Transformers is fun. It isn't meant to be anything except that.

Hey, it's your opinion, and I respect that (hell, I really liked the first movie, can't say much for the sequels, though...), but some people just don't understand the meaning of the word "opinion"...
When you go to see a transformers film, everyone knows exactly what they're going to get and yet everyone seems surprised. Youtube can have things smashing, sure, but it doesn't beat being in the cinema with your friends watching something on a big screen which actually has production value (even if its value not to your taste)ACman said:
