Transformers The Reviews Thread

[Avangarde]

Seriously, someone rescue this thread before it derails completely.

It's kinda hard considering the movie isn't out yet, so the hypsters cant post there reviews, and all the other discussions on reviews are in the threads with the people that got the early screening. IMO the Review thread should have been created when the movie came out.

well, it IS out... kinda.

As far saving this thread, that would require Mod's pi$$ing off their friends by warning them to chill with bashing every poster who may be looking forward to seeing Transformers , and we have seen how that goes.

You know, what´s funny about this, every early review I seen of this movie praises it... and not a single one of them makes me any excited to see it. This movie definitely will have its audience and will please it, but I´m just not part of it. And every time someone says, in a way or another, "typical Michael Bay movie", well, that´s when I don´t feel like seeing it even on cable at 2.a.m. and if I´m drunk.

It is funny. Every review I've read has a lot of comments that would give any other movie low marks, but since this has incredible action, it's getting the OK from the viewers. Kind of reminds me of that statement that ends with "...with thunderous applause." Ahh well.

From one of those reviews:

First of all let me say this is not designed to win Oscars or NAACP Image Awards. So all you pretentious ****ers can go suck a male weiner. Not every movie has to be "good" or have "brains" or "heart" or "soul" or "make sense" or "tell a good story."

Yeah...that last part there kind of sums up the type of people whom I will NOT be taking advice from with regards to what movies are worth seeing.

 

[Golgo-13]

So is this the thread for OUR REVIEWS, or just reviews in general?

 

[Kargo Warrior]

Reviews in general.

 

[The Lizard]

Here's another great quote from one of those genius advance-reviewers posting on AICN:

Bumblebee choosing an appropiate song to help Shia woo Megan Fox (for me, the best scene in the movie).

I really dont what to say....if the reviews are bad then everyone that doesnt support the movie would be like:I knew it,Bay ruined it,i'm not surprised with the outcome etc.etc. but since the reviews are all the way positive at this point now the same people are nitpicking the reviews and finding stuff just to critisize it for the sake of it...i think there are some people that will hate the movie no matter what just to save face and turn out to have been wrong about it

 

[Prodigal__Being]

As alike other movies from this summer, I'll be listening to my own review, much like TMNT, Spider-Man 3, Pirates 3 and Fantastic Four 2.

Note that it gets it wrong. "freedom is the right of all sentient beings" is one of optimus prime's famous lines. Quoted long ago in Beast Wars.

Bay did his homework, Negatrons.

 

[Kargo Warrior]

Awesome!!! Thanks Wesyeed!

 

[Mr Jide]

"I don't want to be "politically incorrect" but this movie is not for ****s or fairies. It's for REAL MEN so it's about cars, exploding, punching, Michael Bay's gorgeous sunsets, the friendship between Tyrese and Josh Duhamel, etc. Like 300, you'd have to be gay not to get hard from this movie. "

Sorry but that quote was hilarious...lol

I'm pretty sure that review is a parody of the typical positive review.

It's frighteningly accurate.

"First of all let me say this is not designed to win Oscars or NAACP Image Awards. So all you pretentious ****ers can go suck a male weiner. Not every movie has to be "good" or have "brains" or "heart" or "soul" or "make sense" or "tell a good story."

It's a parody of all the Bay apologist and source-material haters giving the movie positive reviews for being big, dumb and loud. It's very funny though.

wow. This pretentious snob took as many jabs at the fanbase/source material as possible. Smelling his own farts must have killed the imagination part of his brain. Clueless prick.

hahaha!

Dude, thousands of fans have been petitioning for that line to be in the movie since September. Bay didn't do squat for research.

That is the line picked by and voted by fans to be a line spoken by Optimus Prime in the movie.

I'm so glad "do a barrell roll" didn't make it

 

[The Kid]

Oh I remember that. LOL see, bay knows what transfans want. He knew the do a barrel roll thing was a gag... If all this "bay doesn't have a clue about transformers" bull was true, optimus would be saying

these pretzels are making me thirsty

LMAO WOW

Ummmm I going to write a full review by tomorrow night around this time.... Since I'm a poster and I've seen the movie and hopefully answered all your questions

 

[superherofan777]

There are new reviews coming every day so i dont know where to post them anymore...so i think a thread about this would be nice.

Anyway here is a short review on EONLINE:

Yes, I've seen the movie, and yes, it is freakin' awesome.
The first time you see the robots, it reminds you of how great films like Jurassic Park and ET changed the way we experience the movies. That's all I'm gonna say about the film. Check out the review on Daily 10 on July 3.
