I guess if snobbery is expecting that a film not resort to cheap gags and chain massive explosions after one another in lieu of a plot, or character development, then call me guilty.
Can I just call you a snob?
Do you sit there and analyze theme park rides? Do you try and understand the meaning behind Buzz Lightyear: Laser whatever?
Do you attack the character development and motives of John Connor and the T-800 in Terminator 2 3D: Battle Across Time?
Because that's all these movies are. Attractions. Things to take your mind away from everything else in the world.
And they're even more so with 3D.
So stop your *****ing, and get the **** over it. Dont even give me **** after this post, because you are wrong. Plain wrong.
The fact is this. These movies are shallow, explosion fests with quick rushed stories, simple character development, and
amazing special effects.
Dispite your constant *****ing about the american public, there is not that many of these types of flicks that came out this year. Most of the Summer flicks HAVE been well made, character driven, movies, with actual plot, and some...very little, but some depth. But at the same time, sometimes I just dont ****ing want that.
These movies exist to thrill you. Nothing more. If you cant have fun during them, then what-the-****-ever. Watch something else.
It's one thing if you were lead to believe these would be films of the highest caliber, and if you were, insert insult here....
This movie never lied to you. Bay didnt lie to you. He said there would be more story. And there was. There was a story, a better on the ROTF. He said the humor would be toned down...and it was. Only one scene stood out as godawful...the bathroom one. There was also some pretty good acting from Shia. I mean, c'mon...the dude did the scene justice.
So there you go. Another rant by me over this stupid ass movie. It's ment to entertain you. You dont like movies that exist to purely entertain you? Fine. It's cool. But watch something else.
