Title: On a scale from 1-10, how hard did Transformers suck?
Post by: Kitsunexus on July 05, 2007, 10:58:15 AM
I say 10. It was very very disrespectful to the serious.

I'm not even going to bother with it. Based on testimony from GUTS and the fact that the Even Stevens dope is in it, I'm guessing 10.

Good attitude. 8) This movie sucked hard. Starscream only had like 2 scenes as well, and they f*cked up the entire origin story, and added lame poop jokes and even an awkward masturbation joke.

No shit, seriously? Most of my friends went to see the movie last night. I wonder what they thought of it?
Not even Peter Cullen as Optimus could save the movie, huh? :|

That's a shame. I could tell by the way the transformers looked and were animated in the trailer that it was going to be f*cking wrong though. Oh well, at least you can get transformers stuff at target because of this.

SPOILER ALERT!!!!
I heard that Megatron & OP are supposed to be brothers. Combined with the 'realistic' re-imagining, does this mean that Transformers in this universe have sex?
If so, where are the women? Or can all the guys get pregnant themselves?

Damn opposite opinion here on the transformer movie.

Before you fall into this "popular poster says it's good, so it MUST be good!" trap, I'd advise to see it for yourself. I may have set the bar too high, but damn, I was REALLY crushed by this movie.

It had really, really good action scenes. The main problem was that there wasn't anywhere near enough time given to fleshing out the Transformer's personalities- the movie had like 100 human characters that it dwelled on instead and characters like Jazz had all of 3 lines (hell even Megatron only had about 10 lines total). Plus there was too much goofy humor that just didn't really fit. Overall I didn't think it was too bad and when you get to the fights it's actually pretty entertaining, but it was just super frustrating how much screen time was given to all the lame ass human characters.
Live Free or Die Hard f*cking RULED though, all you guys need to go see that. Best action movie I've seen in ages.

Completely agree. Transformers movie I guess would be ok if the original cartoon never happened,but as it is this movie is highly disrespectful to any of us from the 80ies. This movie is a reboot in all ways. The masterbate joke was so improper on a movie like this,as was the dog pissing and Optimus Prime saying"My bad". Everyone was rendered well,but looked nothing like the original. This movie is more or less for a new generation of fans. Nothing here for the old fans who put Transformers on the map to begin with in the USA.
As a reboot the movie is fine I guess,but you cant expect it to be any kinda homage to the original. It simply is not. Live Free or Die Hard,thats a bad ass movie in every way except for the so called hacker who gets a screen error,like a grafx card error, and blames his friend for "messin with his drive". That and the fact that hackers never leave home,they have no friends or social life,the "warlock" proved that in the movie with his "command center",so it would be impossible to place a bomb in the computer and wire it to the delete key without them knowing. If you ignore those 2 points the movie is totally bad ass. Esp the Dial a Thug/henchman jokes.

Ok, as I'm the die hard Transformers fan on these boards, I will say it was ok. I saw it twice, & will be seeing it once more, cuz a friend I don't get to see often wants to see it saturday.
Anyways, everyone, should always keep in mind, this, just like anyother Transformer series, is NOT G1! The only bot, that you could really say, is like his G1 counterpart, is Prime. And you know, the "my bad" line in it, I thought was going to roll my eyes, but, the way he says it, & plus since they (SPOILERS)
studied human language, it's understandable why they might have different personalities, like, Jazz for instance, is an African American in G1 & the same goes here, except, this actually makes a little sense. So, they say things, that humans say.....though, I hated Jazz's first 2 sentences. Mainly the first sentence.
Pretty much, I look at this movie as Humans.......featuring some giant transforming robots called Transformers. Maybe like an introductory movie to this current TF's universe. And I will say it again, this is NOT G1.
As for Prime & Megs being bros. From what I understand, in this universe, they are. And TF's themselves are younger in this universe, then they are in G1 from what I can gather. There was too many humans(as that is the main complaint of the more recent TF cartoons), but, I'm not 100% sure it could be pulled off otherwise, atleast, for the first movie anyways. Hopefully the next one, will get more into the various personalities of the bots themselves, & I know Starscream will have a bigger role in the next one.....which, will include the real Soundwave(as some think, that Frenzy in this movie, was replacing Soundwave).
As for fembots, yes, there are fembots, well, atleast one we know of so far, that originally was going to be in the movie. And that would be Arcee. She was however, in the prequal comic, & has her own toy coming out, based on the movie design for her. As for them having sex, that would be a no. But, even in G1, why they are all the way they are, is never truly understood, it's all a mystery, other the fact that they were built originally by the Quintessons.......that is, before they ever had the ability to transform. They were just workers(Autobots) & warriors(Decepticons) that the Quints would sell to various warring nations for a profit, but they eventually evovled to have emotions. And obviously, somehow there became a distinction between male & female.
The stupidest things in the movie for me, were Bobby Bolivia & his "mammy". Bumblebee peeing on John, & the masturbation thing. And the mom just plain sucked. But, overall, I enjoyed the movie, if only to see TF's looking like they might in real life. Though, personally, I would've liked less detail, as it's hard to see what all was going on.......not to mention I like the more standard style of TF's that have pretty much stayed the same over the last 20 some years, which includes Beast Wars, as they still have a standar type of transformation style like G1. The ones that deviated a bit were Beast Machines, which was that last decent series(emphasis on decent) to come out. Though, I would like to see RiD again, as I remember enjoying it alot more then Armada, which I hated.

SPOILERZ!!!!!!
I totally wasn't planning on it, but I saw the movie tonight.
For a long time, I thought the bashers here had been too touchy because its a remake. I thought that I'd score it maybe a 3 on the suck meter. That was up until the Autobots finally landed... #-o
Wow, its hard to believe how a movie could strive to cater to toddlers one scene, then be sexually graphic the next before killing lots and lots of people after that. And for a low brow slam bang action fest wanna be, things dragged on for so long.
It was so literally 'Two Grooms' that it was scary. The audience loved it. The poo poo jokes scored almost as well as the trailer for the Mr Bean sequel that preceded the movie.
If you're a fan of bad event movies, you'll probably love it. I couldn't believe how so many scenes were so identical to Team America, with the exact same music. Even though Team America was paroding Michael Bay 'extravaganzas' from years before even that movie was made. :P
It was great how they shamelessly updated Jazz's racist stereotype and made the lone 'black' Autobot the only one who died. :clap:
If perfect special effects and the occasional action-like scene justify a movie for you and can counteract pretty much anything... then don't worry, you'll have a good time.
I have to congradulate Stephen Spielberg for raising the product placement bar. I can't remember a movie with such forced product placement since Superman and General Zod played baseball with Marlboro trucks.
One last thing I wanted to mention... there was a super clean censored trailer for Super Bad with the url for the film's website where adults can watch the R rated version. But right before the Coming Attractions there was a very gratuitus beer ad.

Yeah, the potty jokes were uneccesary. But the one that killed it the most(but everyone except my group, laughed at) was the masterbation one. I was thinking of all the little kids surrounding me, not to mention, I just thought it was disgusting, whether there were kids there or not. And yeah, I ultimately didn't really like Jazz, never thought about him being the black guy that dies though. Then again, that is, IF he's dead. I mean, this is Transformers, they can do whatever they want. Even with super heroes, they can seemingly kill someone off, & then resurect them. Quite frankly, I don't look at any of them being dead, but, that doesn't mean they'll all show up in the next movie. If I wanted to, I could really nitpick this movie to death, but, I don't care to. No movie is perfect, & as a big TF fan, I went in there, knowing that, it's not going to be my beloved G1 or Beast Wars. I just take it for being a new universe, & hope the next one will be better.

I wouldn't have thought that Jazz was dead for sure if OP hadn't carried is guts around in his arms at the end and made a point of telling everyone that he had definitely died a gory death.
Why didn't Scorpinok take a polaroid of a plane in the Middle East and fly off to fight with his buddies when they were summoned?
Why didn't Bumblebee just regenerated a pair of legs with the allspark like 'Rumble' did?
How could they freeze Bumblebee with a CO2 looking gas without the nerd-brat shattering to pieces when he jumped in the ay?
Why was OP opening his chest all the time saying 'give it to me!', but it just melts right through Megatron's body?
Why do I care? :P

This came up when I was telling a coworker about the Transformers' only weaknesses being hot & cold.
Wouldn't they get frozen by outerspace while hurtling as meteors? And even if they could somehow magically set a course through space that missed all planets in between so they could float unconscious... wouldn't they burn up upon entering our atmosphere?
I would've let the masterbation jokes slide if they'd built up to a great film afterward. The worst part for me was the climax of the cartoonish secret agent getting pissed on by Bumblebee/Ratchet. I can't believe that it got by without an R-rating.

I'm not sure what you guys were expecting. It was a "Michael Bay" movie after all. All he knows how to do is action scenes. The movie is *filled* with Michael Bay-isms.
I was expecting the movie to *totally* suck ass, so when I saw it - it wasn't as bad. But yeah...
[spoiler? ...not really]
Also, the end part were the Even Stevens dipshit took the cube and played "football" to save the world really pissed me off. The only thing missing was the flashback were he failed the football tryouts.

Well, saw it my 3rd & last time today. It still seems ok, nothing spectacular. There are some parts that give me goosebumps, I think it's mainly hearing Peter Cullen back in his role as Prime. Shia I actually like, he's decent. There's plenty of cheese in the movie, but, oh well. I still don't know, if the movie was done my way, if it would've hit the general mass as it is. So, in general, I'm ok with the movie. Though, I think I'd rather see a different director for the next ones quite frankly.

Id rather they delete the whole damn movie from whatever master storage method they have for it,destroy all copies produced,issue a apology note to the mass of true fans,air it on the news on the major networks,then make a new movie based on the 80ies story.
This will never happen, because since Godzilla,American made remakes and retcons have totally sucked except Dawn of the Dead. Its a American tradition like the 6000SUX. So basically we have to deal with it. I think the movie itself was ok,as I said before,there was some neat parts,but the movie is not at all aimed in any way at pleasing the 80ies generation that got the shit on the map to begin with. Its for the new kids,the ones who masterbate and get stuck with methhead looking juvie record gfs.

Indeed, they didn't even attempt to make the kick-ass movie they could have, given the source material. It's not like the source material was lame! In fact, they could have simply rehashed the plot lines from 1 or 2 episodes of the cartoon and had a much, much better movie.
I hate to say it, but those god-awful live-action "Scoobie Doo" movies succeeded in ways that Transformers should have been able to pull off. I watched Scoobie Doo on an airplane (horrible!) years ago, but at least it captured (a bit of) the spirit and formula of the original cartoon.
At this point, I'd be stoked to watch a halfway decent live-action GOBOTS movie! I am not kidding.
It is a sad day when the GOBOTS have potential to stomp the sh*t out of the Transformers.

Well,if they decide to toss a disabled kid in there like Chip Chase again,I guess it will be believable this time if he controls a Autobot via the internet since there is so much focus on the internet in the movie. Maybe Chip can get a awesome ride like Cory had in Silver Bullet,but one that transforms into another ugly awkward looking robot thats afraid of some cool air.
I really hated Chip Chase....

Michael Bay's just a director. I think that Steven Spielberg was more rsponsible for ruining the movie.
I also think its crooked the way they gave it stereotypical action/sci fi trailers with deep voiced narration... when a more accurate advertisement would've included spiced in clips from the trailer for Baby Geniuses 2: Super Babies.

So true. Or maybe clips from "Look Who's Talking" !

Who?
Anyways, I was thinking about it earlier. I have lot's of TF shirts, but, atleast for awhile, I feel like I don't want to wear them. I mean, yeah, I wore them to the movie, but, I feel like I'm a robot(pun intended?) just going along with the crowd. Once some of the hype dies down, I'll go back to wearing my TF shirts(which is what I usually wear when just out n' about). Once again I didn't hate it, but I'm not totally thrilled with it.
I hope, that the next series will somewhat enjoyable. I know the new show coming in January is aimed at 7-11 year olds, but, I think that's what G1 was aimed at as well. I know I'm not totally hip on the designs, with Optimus having a huge chin & broad sholders, more like Superman, but, the show itself, apparently will have alot of G1 references, & even has Susan Blu as Arcee(who played Arcee in G1). Not to mention, Wierd Al is going to be a Garbage Truck in it(maybe a Junkion??). I know it's supposed to be more of a super hero show, like Teen Titans(I'd prefer if it was more like Justice League personally if it has to be a super heroish show), but, I'm still going to give it a chance. Who knows, maybe it'll be better then the last 4 series that came out in recent years, or maybe even better then Beast Machines. I doubt it will be as good as Beast Wars or G1 which both have their strengths & weaknesses(though, I prefer G1 over everything else, if only for pure nostalgia).
I was originally hoping for a sequal to Beast Machines, that would "fix" Cybertron, & all it's inhabitants. We never got Transtech, which, at the time, most of us didn't want, but, in hindsight, it might've been alot better then what we ended up getting(RiD, Armada, Energon, Cybertron). And since Beast Wars & Machines continue the G1 universe, I'd like to see that continue if only for that reason. Though, I'd actually also like to see a pre-Beast Wars series, when they were on Cybertron in their Cybertronian vehicle modes, instead of all animals. They have done a little of that, with the new Beast Wars comics, & theirs a new mini series coming out soon, though, I'm gonna wait for the TPB.
Oh, & apparently, the new guy doing Starscream for the new cartoon, (who also plays Sponge Bob Square Pants) does a pretty damn good job at sounding like the original Starscream(Chris Latta), instead of the Vegeta wannabe that was in the more recent series! Anyways, guess we'll find out if it's any good. It's being made in NA this time around(like G1, BW, & BM), instead of in Japan(like all the other stuff), so, there's a chance it'll be decent. For some reason, Anime & TF's, don't go together quite as well as one would think. Sure, you see Trannies at Anime conventions, but, no company in Japan, has been able to make a decent cartoon of it, other then maybe the first few G1 shows in the late 80's like Headmasters, but I have yet to watch those. Gotta get around to that sometime.

Be thankfully you don't have an exposed Transformers tattoo. :wink: I started getting harassed more frequently due to the new movie's profile by people who want to brag to me about how they have a single T-Shirt at home with an Autobot sign on it. :P
Since the film came out, I've already had a couple guys come up to me and start yelling about how awesome the new movie is(!). :|

If its not the same guy, then they should use the actor who played one of the main villians in Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust. He sounds exactly like Starscream with better acting/direction. :)

Me too, but, I still look at it, that this movie might help the Transformers brand in general, like we'll get more merchandise in the future, that'll be appealing to G1'ers.
