Good bye Mr.Bay, although I never liked the focus of humans and military in your TF movies, you did make Optimus Prime a certified bad ass....with a head fetish.

Now bring on another director.

Hopefully we'll get director who's more in touch with Transformers lore or someone who actually gives a damn about the bots themselves.

Its kind of ridiculous that after 3 movies, the only developed characters are Optimus Prime and Bumblebee. The rest of the Autobots and Cons are basically cannon fodder.

Plus Bay's American jingoism and supermodel fetish is getting tiresome.

Yes.  biggrin.gif  Having rewatched it, I can definitely say TF2 is the worst. The climactic fight scene was spoiled by too close-up shots, which Bay only learned to avoid in TF3. And the entire bit with the Decepticons chasing Sam through the desert is just dull.

Also, in TF3, is the existence of the Transformers still covered up? Didn't the Fallen announce himself to the whole goddamn world?

I never understood the point of Bay and the writers keeping the Transformers a secret. How does it drive the plot?Oh wait.....forget that

Anyway there was a newscast about the Autobots being exiled, so after two and a half movies, major cities getting destroyed and countless lives lost,
finally the whole world knows their existence. rolleyes.gif

Seriously Bay, thank goodness you're leaving.

Unfortunately as long as these movies keep making money.....which it will, Douchebay will keep directing them and the sad truth is it will be always garbage.

Someone above quoted 'Leopard never change its spots'. QFT. Bay is arrogant stubborn a*hole that never takes the effort to improve anything.

Just looked at the BO gross for this movie, and by end of its run its gonna come close or match DOTM's gross, which means the quality of the movie franchise isn't gonna change anytime soon until they run it to the ground.

By the way Humble Books Bundle is having a bundle for Transformers comics, recommended for those wanting a more respectable treatment of the franchise. Includes works of Simon Furman who IMO is one of the best TF writers to date.
