Thought hot rod was bad a$$ & cogman was simply brilliant. king Arthur intro was cool, disservice to not see in 3d or imax. some fun easter eggs. biggest thing that bothered me was cades stupid hair. hope the movie does well enough to allow another sequel, I don't think this franchise is done yet. Many stories yet to tell. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-52453847857362466632017-06-25T15:02:31.502-04:002017-06-25T15:02:31.502-04:00Agree completely!

Imo the 30min of talking is pretty much exaggerated and was a good point to it to wrap up some loopholes such as what happened to Sam.

Prime nneded more screen time as a villan. personally i would have quintessa lock prime up and send nemesis prime. I don't want to see another marvel movie in another world. I liked all the movies except for the 2nd one. Jeez let the 80s go its not gonna happen. All this talk about character development the last film complain was not enuff TFs then when gv it to u u complain. ots a gd movieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-48814083889192155412017-06-25T01:08:51.893-04:002017-06-25T01:08:51.893-04:00Final piece....

Hasbro really needs to assert themselves and protect their intellectual property. I think there really needs to be a cleaning of the house over there. Throw out the writers room crap, don't do a reboot, and carefully and skillfully craft a story that unifies everything that's been in the movies thus far and establishes a solid foundation for a better, deeper, and more meaningful movie-verse in the future. They need to bring in people on the movies who are true fans and know the history of transformers. Empower these people to craft the direction of the stories instead of leaving it directors and producers that are content to turn their backs on the fans and make movies that do nothing but piss us off. When each movie comes out it's like going to the theater, getting kicked in the balls, and then realizing afterwards I paid for it. <br /><br />I don't know how many more substandard, sad, irrational, and completely annoying and worthless transformers movies I can take before I turn my back on the movies all together. I really hope things can get better.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-22707697106448762652017-06-25T01:07:48.383-04:002017-06-25T01:07:48.383-04:00Continuation from above...

What really worries me is that Hasbro and Paramount are now sold of this transformers through time concept where we're going to see transformers in the 1980's, ancient Rome, and in who knows what other times. This is a completely lame concept that feels like a cheap rip-off of the newest X-men movies' concept of telling stories in different eras. Here's an idea for the writer's room, maybe they could do a movie about the Dinobots set in pre-historic time [sarcasm]. This way we could maybe actually see the Dinobots in robot mode and actually hear them talk and have real personalities.

I loved the first one and have tolerated the sequels; each time hoping they might turn things around and get back on the right track but this movie, like the other sequels, just wasn't able to do it. In fact, I think it was possibly the worst of the franchise and the biggest piece of crap Michael Bay has produced to date. He might as well have taken one of the Cybertronian Knight's swords and thrust it into deep into the heart of Primus himself (if he even exists in this TF universe, that is) and save Qunitessa, the grand deceiver, all the trouble. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-48974841609908401692017-06-24T20:52:35.267-04:002017-06-24T20:52:35.267-04:00Don't see why no one likes this one.

There was a time when Anthony Hopkins, Mark Wahlberg and Laura Haddocks characters walked and talked for like 30 minutes straight. It was so boring I almost walked out of the movie. And the action scenes weren't even as good as the ones in previous movies.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04070760372081069008noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-54252282307918078152017-06-21T14:12:45.171-04:002017-06-21T14:12:45.171-04:00It's disheartening to have a moment like a ges...It's disheartening to have a moment like a gestalt form, but in an unceremonious fashion, in a split second, with not focus or exhibition.

It was so all.over the place with characters showing up out of nowhere, characters who were in previous films now have the same look, but different body paint. Characters that should have been used but we're most likey scrapped on editing floor. It just goes on and on and again, I'm a huge fan of Bay's and a huge fan of TF. This concept totally needs a Director that fresh. Takes the fans consideration to heart, tells a genuine story and you have a winner. Please, for the love of God let this be Bay's last one. He really destroyed this film.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01318672303892516915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14846463.post-59080227195556843972017-06-21T12:11:12.825-04:002017-06-21T12:11:12.825-04:00Thought the humans were actually good but this one...Thought the humans were actually good but this one has the most human time which none of us wanted!!!
