    The bayverse insulted the memory of G1. Bay-Lorenzo took pieces of the mythology as they pleased and rewrote the rules of the fiction as they wished.

    We would like a movie completely free of Bay's influence. Why do Bay and Lorenzo get to redefine Transformers for all of us?

    No I say!

    Let me have one good Travis movie without reminders of Bay, and I, and many others would very happy.

    Ebay:
    It's funny how the more fervent film defenders constantly accuse critics of not being open to reinterpretation of the brand...and yet when you turn the argument around and suggest the films themselves have somebody else take a whole new crack at them, it's like you've punched somebody's mother in the face with how much they lash out.

    Change is only good to them so long as it sticks within their extremely narrow range of preferences. Hypocrisy at its finest.

    Hypocrisy is when you change an existing franchise drastically for ten years and then get frustrated that people want a return to form.

    Again I and many more just want one good Bay / Lorenzo free movie, then you guys can return to crapping the bed.

    Because he and Bay, via their companies according to Bees credits hold the Lions share.
    And because the entire Bayverse is his own pet project/vision.

    He has been doing his job admirably, playing and dancing as you say, to create hype around his investement with minimal cost. The fact that people cant put 1+1 together and believed and continue to believe that this movie is not a prequel and its different to the Bayverse, its not his fault. Heck half of the posts in here are "He doesnt know what he talks about".

    Sure...the guy who is running the show for ten years straight and puts his money on the table doesnt know....

    I'm impressed Lorenzo knows what Beast Wars is. Bravo for doing his research.

    Lorenzo reminds me of Rambo from First Blood while the majority of the audience and Allspark Productions is Col. Troutman:

    "It's over Johnny, it's OVER!"

    "NO. NOTHING IS OVER, YOU JUST DON'T TURN IT OFF!"

    Well, I've done my bit and went and saw it.

    Curious to note that not even a month after it was released here, the cinema only has two showing a day.
