Michael Bay Succumbs To Stage Fright After Autocue Fails - Walks Off Stage

http://www.theguardian.com/film/2014/jan/0...ng-presentation





...though I don't really like M Bay, kinda feel super bad for him.

As expected, awesome trailer. The movie? With M Bay still behind it, same writers of previous Transformers flicks - not too sure. Will it be a box office hit, for sure.

I keep replaying the last bit. He he... worthy of being in a magazine/as a wallpaper.

One thing I can be very sure of -

No more Shia Lebaffff screaming like a little girl.

Hmm... China, dinosaurs, fossils... China, Dinobots, Transformers...

To put it better, Dinobots have been on Earth all along. I guess they were asleep in TF1, TF2 and TF3.

More like camera distance. The biggest gripe about giant robots/monsters slugging it out on the big screen is camera distance. I understand certain key action is closed in on purpose to highlight it but I don't understand why it is done to the point the whole action sequence is just a blurry mess.

Even "Pacific Rim" suffered from this, but not that bad. TF2 and TF3 were the worst. It was all just a blur in some of the sequences. Must be tempting in some way to make it this way, either by order of the director or the CGI folks.

All I saw was running, explosion and and bigger explosions and mayhem. Here's hoping that the story is "decent" and we will care for the characters.

It's still an M Bay product. Buyer beware. I'm not getting my hopes high.

P/S: Fans might be ranting about how disappointed they are on the way Dinobots are used in the movie later on.

New trailer - a CGI fest.

Story? Maybe nothing much to it.

Totally expected.

I would be double surprised if this movie is slighty better than the last two. Maybe it'll be better than T3.

T1 remains the best as pointed out earlier. Critics be gone for that one, loved T1.

Well, this week it is.

Reluctant at first to watch it... but will watch it anyways.

When you buy the movie ticket, you KNOW exactly what you are paying for.

At almost 3 hours long (2 hours 45 minutes to be exact), this will be longest Transformers film of all.

3 reviews on RT so far, all 3 fresh.

Apparently this is the 'biggest and loudest' Transformers yet with a breath of fresh air.

Here's hoping Mark Wahlberg and the cast deliver... but I'm still very cautionary. Don't want to get my hopes too high.

It is after all...

a Michael Bay film.

Pity, suddenly drop to 50% on RT. Expect the movie to be in the range of 40-50%.

57% - Transformers
19% - Transformers 2
36% - Transformers 3
44% - Transformers 4 ?

There is no way it can be worse than T3. Let's hope I'm right. T3 was the worst of the series in my opinion, T2 > T3. T3 was absolute trash.

This looks set to be the Bayiest movie yet.

Ouch... not good...

Thought of watching for fun even though expected it to be bad.... hmm... M Bay should have been hit by that air conditioner unit.

Went in with very low expectations.

Came out of the cinema with 'not too bad' feeling, but not a good thing.

Let me just say, humans in T4 = zero.

The saving grace of T4 is Mark Wahlberg + Stanley Tucci. Clichéd to the max though from start to finish.

Very disappointing Dinobots. The trailers / marketing covered them all over, but in the movie, they were there for such short time.

No idea how they 'started' appearing. I recall Optimus Prime cutting down something from the ship and then bam... he starts 'taming' it and it transforms into Grimlock.

Logic in T4 = zero.

Goodbye Sam Witwitcky's annoying screams, hello annoying teen Tesssa.

Everything that was T1, T2 and T3 was in T4 = sized up for longer time. Absolutely generic M Bay film. Forgettable and utterly embarrassing.

Michael Bay, please leave Tranformers alone. You have stayed on for too long, you arrogant *****.

I hope this movie does badly at the box office and M Bay leaves for good. Once again demeaning the opposite sex and potraying stereotypical characters (lol... Kung Fu... lol... suddenly out of nowhere). You shitty M Bay.

3/10

Quite possibly the most 'frightening' movie of recent times - - with a monster budget + critic proof film = you can achieve this sort of garbage today.

Had a good laugh...





Quite possibly the dumbest movie I've seen in years.

The first Transformers (2007) was amazing.

It had the absolute right amount of everything... from the plot (arrival to Earth, the Allspark, Sam/his parents, Mikaela oozing fresh hotness, the ending was poignant) to the breathtaking visual effects, the sound effects, the voice acting etc. Technically brilliant. Heck, this movie was nominated for three Oscars.

The first time OP transformed from a truck - - gave me chills. It was (and still is) the 'slowest' most detailed transformation of all the movies. Stunning.

Then it happened. The box office. Hollywood did what it did best. Sequels.

From worst to best...

AoE > DOTM > ROTF > Transformers 1

Worst is AoE. Ehren Kruger when questioned about the plot logic said "Logical Sense Doesn’t Have to Be the Be-All, End-All” Some days he felt like he was writing for a Cirque du Soleil show! He also said Michael Bay simply wanted to 'top everything he did before'.

As someone commented,

It does not need to be as 'realistic' or real-world based as possible. The story needs to be consistent and narratively coherent.

MY FACE IS MY WARRANT

Yeah.

The craze/fandom;

Girls = Twilight

Boys = Transformers

What's worse is the latter; there is no end to it. Twilight has a finite story.

I know each to his own, but reading the comments on the official FB site of Transformers makes me want to puke (if they are indeed real and not just sarcasm).

Sad really. The box office + fans = Michael Bay will be back for Transformers 5 and beyond. I hope the 'good' ratings are merely for pop-corn fun and not to indicate movie quality. Can't believe one can 'tweak' the box office by having the story & location based in 'China' to entice their local movie goers.

The bigger the 'China', the bigger the box office? A worrisome trend (movie creativity/freedom of writing/along those lines... I'm not against the country).

We might be seeing movie posters with "Filmed in China!" in the future.

Shame on you Paramount.

Authenticity over box office performance


Transformers 5 and 6 In The Works; T5 in 2016


Let it be lah... it'll be another dogsh*t anyways. A bigger one mind you.

...for the fifth time

M Bay's last time directing Transformers.
