Mark Wahlberg better sing The Touch in this one.

Seriously though, I hope Unicron is in this one. Just because it would seem to be a shame to have a big multi million dollar movie and not use it to present a big planet eating super monstrosity destroying everything. It's what multi million dollar movies are for.

They should save Unicron until the end of this universe they're trying to build. Why would you have the biggest threat the franchise has to offer show up before the end of it? They already screwed up having The Fallen be the villain of the second movie. They should have saved him for close to the end, too.

Because this horrible fanbase treat these movies like it's supposed to be for them when it's not it's meant to get new people into Transformers it worked for my little sister and it works with many kids and I have seen many a thread that had older people stated they either got into Transformers because of the movies or got back into it after leaving it.


Do these movies have bad humor and less robot action sometimes...maybe but really unless your Disney no one is really going to treat Transformers as a serious franchise and you guys are actually lucky to have Bay be the director because most Directors are going to do what he does but with less quality and that thing is pandering to normal audiences.


The bad humor you people so hate is pandering for them so is all the big explosions and gruesome action scenes and all of it is done with some quality especially thanks to Industrial Light & Magic and other companies.


These movies are not great but they are entertaining popcorn munching movies and for many that's enough if people are expecting a movie like MTMTE it will never happen.

It's his lack of talking and the other obnoxious sounds he makes because of that that those who don't like him don't like.

Note that when I refer to the sounds he makes as "obnoxious", I say that not as one who dislikes Bumblebee (as I do not hate him), but from an objective standpoint. It's like calling Kade Burns from Rescue Bots obnoxious: It's not knocking the guy, it's true (and people love Kade's obnoxiousness).

Well, considering he's getting his own stand alone film, I think it would behoove him to find his voice - and quickly, as I know I certainly won't sit through 3 hours of his idiotic noises, and I'm sure many others won't either >:oP

Maybe we're going about this title all wrong. Maybe it's not Optimus who's the last knight. Maybe's it's someone else. Maybe Prime even knights this guy.

I can see it now:

Optimus: "From this day forward, you will carry on the legacy of those long since passed. You will forge a new brotherhood to continue what we started. By the power invested in me by the great Knights of Cybertron, I hereby dub thee Sir Cade Yeager, the Last Knight."

You can have a 'good' movie, and still have a great summer popcorn flick; just look at Civil War, or Deadpool, or Pacific Rim, or any other on a long list of 'good' films. These movies are not 'good', and a lot of people are sick of the nonexistent quality of the writing and - sometimes - acting and direction.

It's cool if you like them, but they are far from being even 'average' movies, in fact, I'd say that they're almost as bad as the Star Wars prequels, but for (mostly) different reasons. These can be good movies, they could even be great movies, Guardians of the Galaxy has shown us that one can indeed elevate schlock, and turn it into a great movie going experience, and it all starts with the one thing they've been lacking from day one, solid writing and solid acting/direction.

I liked the idea of Knights and Pirates when Funpub gave them to us 2 years ago, I actually think it falls into place nicely and helps this very cramped universe grow that much more, and wouldn't mind various mediums exploring it more in-depth :-?

MTMTE did it first with its still-ongoing search for the ancient and legendary Knights of Cybertron.

Ok, what would these movies have to do to be considered "good"?

I can't quantify that as well as some others probably could, but, I'm pretty sure that we all know the general rules, you know, quality writing, a coherent plot, depthful characters... like I said, it's cool if you like them, I like them too, but they are not 'good' movies'.
I am not a G1 fan, please treat my opinions as such.

Compare these two tidbits from Age of Extinction:
a) One of the cast, Drift, was never mentioned by name during the movie's 150 minute runtime.
b) There was apparently time for a scene outlining exceptions to the age of consent present in Texan legislature (although the details were off).

While those aren't the only problems, or even the largest, I think it's fair to say they're clear symptoms of the lack of clear goals/vision/structure in making the film.
