Hmmm...nice art piece! :D This could actually go on for a little longer...and perhaps loop for 3 hours!

I'm still annoyed with what they did to Devastator.....

 

Man look what they did to poor Starscream! You didn't expect something similar for Devy? I'M still pissed about the "Starscream" design as it is! Half of his lines should've been delivered with a smug looking grin on his face, yet for every one of them, he was still frowning. They tried to use the excuse that his tone of voice was enough to convey the emotion. That works for villains like Darth Vader yes, but NOT STARSCREAM!

 

UGH!!

I hope for them TF3 has all the robots sitting in a formal lodge with monicles on sipping tea and discussing a Jane Goodall novel with the class and sofistication so desired.

 

lol awesome !

The Dark Knight: Christopher Nolan and his brother Jonathan Nolan take a comic book hero with a history of particularly camp adaptations, and produce a $185 million film with revenue in excess of a billion dollars. Critical reception is overwhelmingly positive, including two Academy Award wins.

 

Iron Man: Jon Favreau helms a $145 million first-time adaptation of the Iron Man character; the end result nets approximately $585 million at the box office and achieves a level of critical praise far surpassing expectations.

 

Revenge of the Fallen: Michael Bay produces a $200 million sequel to his 2007 Transformers effort. The end product nets $830 million at the box office. It also receives an overwhelmingly negative critical reaction, and is Michael Bay's worst reviewed film to date. Public controversy swirls around accusations of racial characturing. Post-release press is marred by public criticism and in-fighting from members of the cast and crew.

 

So, what does this tell us? The Nolan brothers were able to produce a sequel film with a lower budget, higher box office take, and significantly warmer critical reception than Revenge of the Fallen. Similarly, Jon Favreau - hardly a name one nominally associates with summer blockbuster season - produced a film that earned back it's budget four times, won critical praise on par with The Dark Knight and proved to be the cornerstone of the new Marvel film initiative.

 

Again, someone explain to me: precisely why is it that the Transformers franchise cannot be adapted in a way that doesn't insult the intelligence of viewers and critics alike? Is there some sort of unwritten rule that states adaptations of modern fantasy material are incapable of smart plotting and well-written dialogue? Because The Dark Knight and Iron Man seem to have demonstrated that this isn't the case. Is it written somewhere that summer blockbusters aren't allowed thoughtful character study? Because The Dark Knight and Iron Man seemed to have ignored such a rule. Is is that intelligent films simply don't score at the box office? The Dark Knight and Iron Man would dispute otherwise.

 

But by all means; let us hear once again that Revenge of the Fallen is and always was bound to be a crass, moronic mess because - despite evidence to the contrary - this is somehow the way films of it's ilk must be made; and not because the director is a publicly obnoxious egotist.
