There is not a force in this world that could possibly get me to sit through another shitty Transformers movie. They're terrible in every way a movie can be terrible.

Thumbs up,my friend.

Problem is people go in Expecting a Scorsese flick. Its a Transformers movie, I go in expecting massive ass explosions, over the top battles, big ass robots, dumbass juveline humor, and a REALLY hot girl. The entire point of summer movies like these is to go with friends, laugh your asses off, and have a good time. It's not supposed to be like The Departed.

Its designed for entertainment, and specifically entertainment for groups of people. It's by far not the best movie I've seen, it has DOZENS of flaws, however, I had a DAMN good time with my friends watching it, and most of all, I was Entertained. It pisses me off so much sometimes to see people lose the entire point of seeing movies.

I expect, at least as good as the cartoon I used to watch.  The first one was at least around that, while the second was not.  The third isn't seeming to hold up either, from what I am seeing.  The point is to see stuff in keeping with the cartoon, as I am a fan of the cartoon.  I can tolerate some dumb stuff, as I also liked the GI Joe film, but it has been months since I have seen anything.

If theres one thing that annoys me is when people compare movies to a series. A series can have hours, upon hours of content, greatly rivaling any movie, or trilogy for that matter. And in respect, its not fair to ever compare something to the original, this is practically in all forms VERY loosly based on the original cartoons. By no means is it even following the same storyline or arcs of the cartoons, therefor should not be compared. Apples to oranges my friend, sure they are both fruits, but still very different. Same goes for this, if they were shooting for spot on accuracy and intended to follow the entire storyline of the origional Transformers series, this would be a completely different trilogy altogether. Anyways, I'm tired, rambling, and I'm starting to question if half of my statement is even coherent. Bedtime. Night.
