“Stay away, lad! That’s Prime’s fight!” — Kup, in the original 1986 Transformers animated movie. I just watched Michael Bay’s Transformers movie at the Gateway Globe Platinum Theater. Believe it or not, it’s even more of an abomination than everyone expected it to be — from jumpy editing to fake graphics to gibberish computerspeak to […]Click here to continue reading "Transformers Movie Review: Optimus Prime was Robbed!"...Transformers Movie Review: Optimus Prime was Robbed!

Ooh! The term “nerd” hit a raw nerve. Ouch…
“Dumbing-down of society,” whatever, Mike, whatever…
Here’s what you should: write a screenplay, or hire someone to write it if you’re not familiar with writing screenplays, then submit it to Steven Spielberg.
That should settle all your whining.
Here’s what you forget, Blahblah: we, the moviegoers, pay those screenwriters’ salaries. Ultimately, we hired them to write that screenplay.
If you hire somebody to do something and they give you crappy work, you won’t call their crap gold.
Boggler,
Yeah, I was wondering the same thing. From the start, Mike had a low opinion of Michael Bay and Hollywood movies in general. Yet, he still went to see it. What’s up with that? A bad case of masochism?
But no, if Mike’s a masochist, then he would derive pleasure from the torture of sitting through the movie. Then he wouldn’t be whining, right?
If that’s the case, then everyone who watched the film and enjoyed it are the masochists.
Then what does that make of Mike? To me, he’s just a crybaby trying to get attention to himself. Or maybe he has Tourette Syndrome?
Mike, you’re not the center of the universe. You don’t own Hasbro nor the rights to Transformers. Get over it.
Make your own robot film instead.
Dawn Taylor:
Glenn Whipp:
Even if all you expect out of this movie is rock ’em sock ’em robot fun, Bay sorely underdelivers.
Wrong logic, Mike. You’re just like the typical guy arguing with a traffic enforcer, “Hey my taxes pay your salary! Bug-off!”
Such reasoning clearly illustrates how detached you are from the whole concept of entertainment, if not, from reality.
Better detach yourself from The Matrix. Swallow the blue pill (or is it the red one?)
Whatever. Point being, Paramount studio executives are smiling ear to ear right now. Michael Bay, Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci delivered the goods for them. Nobody (at least from Paramount) is calling their work crap right now. They’re the darling of the studios and the toast of 4,000-plus US theaters.
And bad news for you, Mike. Michael Bay, Alex Kurtzman and Robert Orci are sure to do the succeeding films after Transformers becomes a blockbuster hit (which is assured given the record-breaking numbers coming out of the box office.)
As for you, you’ll be sulking for the next several years. Boohoo.
