    I'm doing the same thing right now lol. This is the first time in days I've logged on since that new tv spot with grimlock smashing cons around. I even deleted my YouTube history from new tv spots showing up as recommended.

    I'm still going to be sticking around after the 13th but I will try to keep it to a minimum.

    It's these damn TV spots you have watch out for. I was satisfied with footage after that international trailer from a few weeks ago but these TV spots are apparently giving away more than I care to see which is why I haven't watched any of them and turn my head when they pop up on TV.

    I'll probably go on an exile when the movie is a few days away.

    Take care, all those opting out until after the 20th.

    I'm not real sure yet if I'm going to stay or not. I'm so excited about the movie I want to see everything now! :lol

    With the recent screening of The Last Knight in China and the inevitable minefield of spoilers I'm going into exile. I just got my tickets for the first IMAX screening at my local theater in the Netherlands, which is on the 22nd. After I've seen the movie my 3000th post here will be my reaction (or review).

    I hope everyone has a great time, but I'm sure that won't be a problem.

    :bay

    This is my official notice of leave until... probably the 23rd, trying to get that day off because of a concert.

    Transformers and Iron Maiden in the same day... I dunno if I can handle it!

    Saw the film. I enjoyed it. It didn't blow me away though. I hope there is an extended blu ray coming out though, it feels like parts were cut out to appease people bitching about AoE being to long.

    Exile is over.

    That's Bay's problem... he doesn't know what to cut out and leave in.

    Hahah,

    Glad you liked it, I share your sentiment, it was very good but incomplete and I liked AOE much better

    Yep perfect example he is credited as creating the twins. He does this and fans and critics alike call them racist and horrid characters.
    In a knee jerk reaction they are cut from the film dotm without explanation which was actually more annoying to me then them being created in the first place.

    I think I like them about equal. This movie is as good as any other summer movie. I hate critics, if they want to bitch about action and noise in a Transformer movie they should stop watching them and stick to oscar bait movies like La La Land or Boyhood.

    I agree and I don't. These films are what they are and after 4 of them people are ridiculous for expecting anything other than what we got.

    However I don't agree with the statement that ppl including critics bash these films because they aren't "artistic enough" they are different than other films the way they play out, for better or for worse. And I get why people especially critics don't like them. This one suffers from the same issues the others do sadly.

    But thankfully I love the robot designs, and although I don't agree with all of bay's directoal decisions I sat back in the third act and watched an insane over the top battle that looked and sounded fantastic. And it pains me as a transformers fan to say this but burton, Vivian, and Cade were the most interesting cast of humans of all 4 movies making me less annoyed when they were onscreen without robots.
