Transformers 3 (yes, already)

The result is still like being urinated upon, but at least this time Michael Bay was considerate enough not to ingest asparagus first

So uhh... does that mean it's better than the second?

Elitist critics who dont want to dirty their hands with the filthy peasant folks tastes.

critics loved Thor and First Class :I

What do you think is responsible for the divide between audiences and criics?

I would say age, but Cars 2 has an even lower score between audience and reviewers alike. :B

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

Okay, so let me try to break this down.

Dark of the Moon is better than it's predecessor for a couple reasons:

1. No Megan Fox: The ***** annoys me, ok? Being that I really had no expectations upon seeing the new girl (she wasn't even saying anything in the previews), upon closer inspection in the film, she was...well, not annoying to me. I guess that says a lot, right? <_<

2. Slicker visuals: Bay has stepped his game up from the first film, so it was very nice seeing all of the robots (as well as the action scenes they participated in).

3. Minimal annoyances from comedy bits: Revenge of the Fallen suffered from an abundance of "forced funnies," and much of this came from those irksome twin robots. This movie still had a few occurrences where this happened, but for the most part, the parts where funny was needed or placed hit, and it hit pretty hard.

Ken Jeong was AMAZING in this movie. I love that man.

Now, the cons:

1. Run-time. 3 freaking hours. Many parts could have been shortened, in my opinion, and placed on the special features.

2. *** SPOILERS ***
Shia Labeouf screams too much. He seriously does.
*** END SPOILERS ***


3. *** SPOILERS ***
The movie ended quite abruptly. A freaking final message from Prime, and then BOOM, credits. The final battle was the shortest I've ever seen in my life. Prime being able to kick Megatron's and Sentinel Prime's ass (the latter only being done with the help of Megatron) makes Prime look like this all powerful SUPERMAN. I don't know. I could have been longer to me, but then the movie would have been over three hours, hence, my suggestion that other scenes should have been shortened.
*** END SPOILERS ***


Anyway, that's pretty much my two cents.

Run-time. 3 freaking hours

[Bon]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

I knew you would bust my balls on that. :3

[Magus]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

What? No, not YOUR balls.

Transformers 3 should not be ****ing 3 hours long. Wanted to rip my teeth out throughout Transformers 2's runtime. Why repeat that?

Oh, because Bay loves ****ting on us.

Hey, hardly any movie should be 3 hours long. I hardly have the patience for that anymore.

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

Its not 3 hours long unless you include the 25 minutes of previews. The extra length grants more well done exposition.

Saw it tonight, its much better written and coherent than the second. Suffers from the same story telling though, DotM is much more human element heavy.

RE: Plot*** SPOILERS ***

Plot is identical to "The Ultimate Doom" episode from the gen 1 cartoon. Super space bridge to bring Cybertron to Earth.

Sentinel Prime betrays the Autobots and ****s up NEST.

Also they killed a TON of major Characters. Ironhide, Starscream, Megatron, Sentinel Prime, Shockwave, Soundwave and Barricade.

And yes, Prime continues his face-ripping spree.

Good job using spoiler tags, everyone!

please keep using spoiler tags, I have no idea when I'll be able to see this.

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

I cringed during the comedic parts. None of them were funny.

Anyway, I consider the first one to be the best. This wasn't as bad as the second one but it's pretty mediocre.

**** it, give us BAD BOYS 3!

[jacquel]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

Um.

*** SPOILERS ***
So I read that Megatron helps Optimus Prime fight the big bad guy in this new movie and Optimus thanks him by ripping his head off. Did Micheal Bay like... even glance at the characters this franchise is supposedly based on?

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

Oh my god this movie is going to break Valkysas' heart.

Does anyone know if there is a Black Guy #2 action figure(the fat one). He is my favorite character as he was given the 3rd most character development behind what's his face's gay german superbutler and Not-Megan Fox's lips.

[Valkysas]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

It is?

Are you talking about Eddie? Hardcore Eddie? (yes, that's his name)

there's no toy of him.

[John Mora]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

It'd take up too much shelf space?

[Jeroak Nelave]

Re: Transformers 3 (yes, already)

Saw it last night, i enjoyed it, and it was definitely better than the 2nd, but i felt it started to drag a little bit.

Oh...and Shia LeBouf has a future as a screaming prissy b****, and nothing they could do made him manly in the least.
