TRANSFORMERS, CRAPPIER EVERY DAY!

Yep, that's why it was the 3rd highest grossing movie this year. The highest selling DVD and the most bought HD DVD like ever. Why the toys can't stay on the shelves. Why the movie line is so popular that the new animated toy line release was pushed back until June of '08 because demade is so high for movie figures.

I don't think you get it.
For a start, all those people who went to see it, didn't know beforehand that it was crappy.
And even if they heard, if they're a fan they'd want to see it anyway.
Second, real fans would go to see it no matter what, and of course they'll buy things. It's still cool updated Transformers figures and shit, even if the movie wasn't as good as it could have been.
Thirdly, KIDS YOU FUCKING IDIOT.
Little boys AND girls will go to see it and their parents will buy merchandise for them.

-lol. I laugh at your ignorance.
First counter point. It wasn't a crapy movie at all. Audiances loved it. I went 4 times over it's release with different sized crowds and each time they really enjoyed it. As for fans and the movie it's self.. acording to Hasbros data TF fans make up about 10% of TF toy sales. Even if die hard fans were the ones carring the movie, it would have had a huge drop off after two days. Your second point is summed up above. But, of course the movie wasn't as good as it could have been. What more could have been done really? It had a budget over 150 Million. Money is a reality which limits what can and can not be done. Considering that the main cast of TF characters didn't even make it on screen until an hour in is a testimate to the enjoyable script. Third, kids are by no means Fn'idiots.
You are entitled to dislike the movie, but you can not argue it's success and that a great number of people loved the film.

Needed more epic battles and less stupidly-long-drawn-out-"lol we're hiding behind a house" scene. Seriously, it wasn't even funny at the start, seven more minutes of it weren't going to make it funnier.

Still a pretty good movie, though. I didn't hate it as much as I thought I would.

... Too many humans. Just.. needed one. As a connection between humans and the Transformers.
No more. IT'S ABOUT THE FUCKING ROBOTS.

That's the main thing they fucked. And, seriously, last time I checked, it was NOT a good movie.
Decent, but.. not awesome.

Copypasta from something I wrote awhile ago about my thoughts on Transformers.

-It was a low budget film that was paid for through countless in-movie advertisements.
-The ads themselves had better plot than the movie.
-The storyline was terrible dialogue with some robots in it.
-We don't give a shit about humans. We watched Transformers, not Fleshbags.
-Not enough robots.
-That one chick kept switching in and out of her accent. (The Anaconda effect)
-Her accent was terrible anyway.
-"Oh, gee, maybe they're DNA-based robots--" NO. WHAT THE FUCK. HOW WOULD YOU KNOW YOU NEVER EVEN SAW THEM.
-The black robot was godawfully stereotypical.
-His first line was 'what's up, bitches'.
-The loser guy was into a girl...The girl was just a street ho.
-The loser guy ditches his best friend to pick up a girl. He gets the award for worst friend ever in the history of movies.
-The loser guy and ho are driving, where the background is just white. You can tell is a bad backdrop BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE THE FUCKING FLOOR OF THE STUDIO THE SCENE WAS SHOT IN.

I personally feel that it was the worst movie I ever watched.

Might be correct, but "low budget" isn't really the epithet for this film.

QFT. Infact, your entire post is QFT.

The kind of movie most people would want to see, one where it was mostly about the Transformers themselves would be to expensive to make. Think astronomical dollor amounts. Movie cost over 150 million to make, made a bit over 600 million world wide. To make even a 2 hour film (note this would be a half hour shorter than what we got) would most likely cost as much to make as it earned at the box office. Then there is the matter of time. It took ILM nearly 24 hours to render a single frame with a TF in it. Plus if you remove the human element the charm of the movie would be lost. The audiance would have nothing to really relate to and would be a far less interesting story. People who think like this make me think of Jaws, and these same people might say that was a bad movie. "It's about the shark, but you never see it. Instead we just get some lame Williams mood music."

If doing it properly would cost too much, then why bother making it and fucking it up?
Why not wait until it's easier to make so it'll cost less.
Also, ITT: PXLFAG tries to defend Transformers movie against the rest of /i/. And fails.

you say "done properly", but as a person who loves movies, knows how to put together a story, is a big fan of Transformers, and I say it was done properly. A movie with wall to wall robots would have floped at theatures. Die hard fans might have loved it, but the public at large would be like WTF?! I knew a great deal about this film long before it was released, and I had many fears as to how it would turn out. Even the things I didn't like about the script and character designs, I ended up loving. A very large leap of faith was taken on by Bay and Dreamworks, and the people of the world responded to it with great applause. Plus as a huge fan of Mecha in general I can say for a fact there is no other Live Action film ever made dealing with robots that even comes close to Transformers. Also I'm not defending the TF movie, I'm just trying to explain to some people what the meaning of success is, as it seems they don't recognize it when they see it.

Give it up. Why do you care so much?
Stop feeding people, you moron. WE GET IT.
You like Transformers. You think the movie was great.
Can't you just let everyone else have their own opinion about it? Why does it bother you so damn much?
Stop trying to make everyone think about it the same way you do.
IT WON'T HAPPEN.
