    I like the movies, I really do. But if Michael Bay keeps leading the helm Transformers is never going to get the positive attention we all long for.

    When the sea level rises,I will blame it on greedy Paramount for letting Michael Bay's explosions contribute to global warming.

    Bay is good but they actually need a scriptwriter or someone who acts as an intermediary between them both with an ego as big or if not bigger than bay's......this way we will have a story that properly flows and connects and also makes sense.

    Also this may mean i was correct.....that when Bay wad talking about someone else being able to pick up the story and go with it.....his reason for aoe being the way it was....was indeed about multiple movies being made within the same movie verse just by different directors....get the feeling optimus in creator land is a prime candidate lol

    The texturing quality seemed off , and the way the human made TF's transformed looked awful to me.

    Remember, this is my opinion. And who am I to get on someone for having a different opinions? I'm not one of those asshats from IMDB.

    Frankly I don't have a problem with him. It's Krueger who needs his ass booted from scriptwriting.

    Congrats, more shitty movies. TF4 will be by far the worst performing in the US, despite the highest percentage of higher revenues from IMAX and 3D. Toyline not selling. Trend pointing down, fast. As stated before, international box office is nice, but Hollywood still makes movies for the U.S. first.

    So the question is, will he be back directing? What direction does TF5 go in now? Believe me when I say there will be plenty of pressure to make significant changes, especially considering that not only did the movie underperform their expectations domestically but it also created another PR hit to the brand, with a negative consensus all around.

    Someday we will get a live action Transformers film, and it will be successful. The quicker he's completely removed from having anything to do with them, the quicker it will happen. News like this is worth celebrating if all you care about is mere existence and not the quality of said existence.

    I respect your opinion and I do agree about IMDB and don't forget about Youtube, that one is way worse.

    As long as the film rakes big bucks, Bay will make tf movies til he dies or has his brain preserved in a jar at this rate.

    Just compare GI Joe to Transformers. If the Transformers movies were doing as shitty as the GI Joe movies then you'd have every right to complain. GI Joe IS DEAD ever since ROC. Nobody gives a rat's ass about GI Joe or Thundercats. Transformers is still going strong.

    What other toy line has shit tons of 3rd party support like Transformers? What other franchise has a huge convention every year like Botcon? What other toy line has tons of exclusives & Japanese releases? What other 80's franchise has movies crossing the billion dollar mark? But instead of counting your blessings you continue to copy & paste the same tired stale complaints from 2007.

    If you don't like the movies that's fine, go collect Generations or Kre-O or 3rd party. But STOP crapping on the movies that are making this franchise grow & grow & grow. Be happy our favorite franchise isn't dead in the water like GI Joe or Thundercats.

    James Gunn should direct a Transformers film. He really nailed it with GotG.

    I hope he stays as Director. They are my favorite films and I enjoy his style and his team.
