It's been said by multiple writers that Perry's too good a journalist not to have it figured out, but like Gordon and Batman, he chooses not to say anything.
I think if people pay attention to what they're paying for and know what they're getting themselves into, they don't have the right to complain when they get exactly what they were sold.
I'll just say there's a part of me that really ******* appreciates sitting in a movie theater and being able to watch Optimus Prime, with a sword and shield, ride a goddamn robot Tyrannosaurus Rex into a fight. I'm glad I'm still able to enjoy dumb stuff like that.
If you read the reviews of a pizza joint that tell you exactly what you're gonna get and you go in expecting something else, that's your fault. That's what I'm trying to say here. You don't go into a Transformers movie expecting anything but exactly what you've been told you're going to get...
Depending on who's writing them, sure they are. Batman and Superman have just as many bad stories as the Transformers do, a lot of them even worse.
I'm just saying...if I walk into a Transformers movie expecting anything but trash...fun trash, to me, but trash nonetheless, whose fault is it...
Yep. I don't expect anything more out of them than a bunch of robots based on toys I grew up smashing together beating the **** out of each other. If I went in expecting anything different, it'd be my fault for being disappointed. I watch them in the same mindset that I watched the cartoons...
From what I gather, the way they're setting the universe up is via short appearances that will make total sense to fans of the comics/properties, but for people unfamiliar with DC they'll be total headscratchers, which is why we're seeing such a disconnect between fans and critics.
I'm pushing 40, the only persons' opinion I give a **** about is my own. If a movie can turn my brain off and put me in another place for 2-3 hours and let me forget about the **** going on in the real world, it's done its job and I'll gladly fork over the $12.
Even if the movie is pure DC fan service, I'll be fine with it. I'm a DC fan, and I've been waiting a long time to see certain things on screen.
Then again, I love the Transformers movies simply because Optimus is a total bad *** so my opinion probably doesn't really count for much. It always...
