I'm taking a break for an indefinite time. I know a lot of you probably don't care, hate me etc. but I thought I wanted to post it here. It seems that most of the people I liked have moved on, and new people that I don't like are coming in.
Goodbye.
Adios; see you in a month.
You have impeccable timing, Adams.

Pfffffft, why would I use a gaming console for games? It's not letting me play blurays because it needs a L;JSDHSFJKLGFDKLHKL update. Which it won't allow me to acquire. Trollstation 3.
GG Wowhead. Nice way to use a quote. I might now have to spitefully start calling ye, WoWHead!

Hayden was worse. In a movie full of animated robots and no plot, Shia's acting wasn't bad enough to stand out in my mind. Hayden was in the same movie as Jar Jar, and I still remember thinking what a bad actor he was.
I watched Transformers Dark side of moon yesterday. There was quite a bit of stupid animation, wrapped in a stupid movie, with a stupid plot, and Shia still stood out as stupid. That's got to count for something.

Nah he came back after 26 days; wish he would have waited 4 more days.

to be fairly honest, who watches Transformers for the
Plot
?
seriously, there are some movies that you watch for their deep plot that makes you reflect upon the human nature, and live a good story, that somewhat you could reflect upon real events, and make a significant conection to one or more of the characters............
and then there's movies that you just watch for the shootings, fighting sequences, copious ammounts of blood, or cheap laughs. Sometimes all of the above combined.
You seriously think kids saw Dragon Ball due to its deep plot? awesome characterization? wrong and wrong, it lacked both, but it was a hit anime because it had some damn good fighting sequences (where else a fight with the same dude can last 15 episodes? go on, name another anime that does the same....)
You think people saw hostel for its OMGWTF plot? Wrong again, those who watched that extremely disturbing sick-gorn-fest did so because they wanted to see copious amounts of blood.
People don't go watch Transformers for top-ace performances, or good-written dialogs, or even a coherent plot....... they watch transformers for the explosions and the big-ass giant robots duking it out man.
Teen girls watch Twilight for its skilled actors and plot? nope, they watch it to drool over the cutie bishonen completely idiot leads playing jacob and ed.
Some movies are just not meant to be taken seriously :P so one has to lower their bar when watching such movies.

as an extra comparison, going to a movie theater to watch transformers and expect a deep plot and top performance on their actors, is like wanting to have a good plot on a porno movie.
Who watches a porn film for the PLOT? those that watch porn do so for the hooters, not the plot.

pff, it was still a close enough call, we're not gonna get technical over a few days.

I'm not saying that Transformers had to have a deep plot. Any plot would be nice. Dr. Seuss write more interesting dialogue.
Per your example Rankorr, people still shouldn't watch the whole transformer movie. They should stream the exciting clips online with the door locked.

Agreed. I don't go to the movies to listen to a symphony orchestra, but a movie whos only soundtrack is a metal dumpster rolling down a staircase is going to piss me off.

meh, I stopped going to movie theaters ever since that incident that-shalth-not-be-mentioned back in 1999 (I stepped onto something VERY SQUICKY on my way out)
if I wanna watch a movie I just get the DVD. And I do own the entire transformer trilogy, whenever I play it, I just fast-foward the boring crap, and watch the giant robots kicking the crap out of each other.
Again, just as people don't watch porn for its plot but for the hooters, so too people watch certain movies due to an over-abundance of a certain element.
Sometimes that element is shootings, sometimes is blood and torture, sometimes is cheap comedy, and sometimes is fighting scenes.
Of course I tend to apreciate more the movies that have a good writing and plot mixing it with nice action sequences (Like "The book of Eli"), than those that are pure action and crappy plot/writing, but that's another thing entirely.
when someone is watching a michael bay movie, they do so for the explosions, cheap comedy, and massive shooting scenes. I honestly tought that the plot and writing of Bad Boys 2 SUCKED-ASS, but dare to deny to my face that the shootings weren't awesome as frick?

I find it creepy that Adamsm is stalking me... I didn't know he was into goats too.
Anyway, back on the hunt.

You don't know how my brain works at times.
And I've never seen any of the new TF movies in the theater....and sadly, I was far too young to see the original one in the theater =P; but oh well. That is about the only thing that would actually get me into the theater to watch a Michael Bay Transformer movie and spend money for it: If they did one about Unicron.

That McDonalds hamburger had a soggy, nasty bun, an undersized and dry beef* patty, and negligible amounts of condiments. The french fries were soggy, and the soda was flat. But, hey, at least the bag it came in was colorful.
Take the movie's budget away, and give it to countless others who would make a really good movie with that money.
