They should have gotten this for Dark of the Moon, miles above The Last Knight in every way. I mean recognition is good but Christ they deserved a better film to hang their hats on.
This is how you know that the awards system is biased because deserving films like Transformers don't get the recognition that it deserves because the VFX and scores for the franchise are outstanding regardless of the quality of the overall film. Personally, Suicide Squad winning an Oscar for make up is a step in the right direction for the recognition of films of all types and genres.
