    There is no issue if you had permission from the creator to upload his work that he took down.....did you get permission?

    Yeah, he does not profit because he deleted it. I'm clearly not the one that needs a teacher. It is a 5 minute video of angry joe talking about revenge of the fallen that he deleted almost 5 years ago. Yet somehow you seem so concerned about making it a priority to patronize me for simply reuploading a video that was previously deleted. You aren't doing much, just being a jerk for no reason. Besides, even if I was making money on it, I still wouldnt care, what are you gonna do? Cry about it some more in place of angry joe, who clearly doesnt care about a review for revenge of the fallen with only 6 thousand views. Give me a break, jesus the incompetence and just standoff nature of everyone on this damn site these days for goodness sake. It literally feels like we battle over every simple thing these fucking days. And I love how you act like I'm taking credit for it, when the literal video title is angry joe transformer review, WHICH HE DELETED! "He wont profit", yeah no shit, he deleted the video, my God the stupidity of this conversation.

    And on that day, Angry Joe deleted his YouTube page, because some random internet stranger reuploaded a 9 year old movie review. Legend has it that, after the video was reuploaded, he was at a point of no return and his YouTube career was destroyed. /s

    Bumblebee has almost as many positive reviews as The Last Knight.

    Man!!!this movie sucked.....Just 5 second s on Cybertron......CliffJumper's Prime death .....almost exactly the same death.......Silly girl...and her Silly life story........Honestly from the trailers I was hoping for something more , than just the trailers.....but I already had my suspisions.Okkay it had Soundwave and his exact voice, Starscream, Ravage, Wheeljack , Arcee, Shockwave and is British accent.....but all this squeezed into....what was it ...5 seconds?????

    EVERYTHING AFTERWARDS IS GARBAGE!

    Okay the Story was about Charly.....I get it, but where was the Transformers story part???????Where is the rest of the Movie.This movie really felt squeezed together....it honestly didn't work for me.I hope the next movie will have no humans in it.

    This movie makes me wish they made a sequel to The Last Knight instead, with the reveal of Unicron!

    something tells me you dont have too much luck with women, hmm?

    Did you read the synopsis before watching? This was pretty much made extremely clear in every single press, media, and advertising situation.

    Sounds good. Like the Bay movies, right? Nothing but wall to wall robots interacting with each other and absolutely NO presence of useless, neurotic, coked out, irritating human characters

    Ahhhh, there we go.

    Why people think that if there is human in Transformers = bad? I mean, aren't they transform into something called human's vehicles?

    I believe that the main reason people believe that humans in a Transformers movies result in the film being bad is because the previous five films had emphasis a large chunk of the focus on them, maybe even more than the Transformers themselves. Also, there were a lot of humans in the film who weren’t likeable or interesting; Sam from the first 3 films and the mechanic’s daughter, as well as her boyfriend from the 4th film come to mind.

    Personally, I don’t mind humans, so long as they add, not take away, the experience, and it seems this film has finally done.

    It was bad because the story felt fake, not because of the actress (she got an Oscar nomination at age 14 for being in "True Grid"), but because it felt fake....I get the ET reference by some fans....I didn't like it because the whole damn story was about Charly.....where is the rest of the Movie.So we're at that point again......Oh yes...the next one has to be awesome because than the rest of the Transformers arrive and we finally get the Autobots vs Decepticon War, we deserve" nah, we needed that 11 years ago , this sucks! Bumblebee sucked, because it's the same Old excuse after all.Because, they refuse to get it right!

    Here's how I think it went don't when they were thinking about making a new TF movie:
    Well TLK tanked what should we do? Let's make a super cutesy Bumblebee movie. We'll set it in the 80s and throw in a couple scenes with G1 designs to attract those fans and we'll cutesy up BB by giving him a fat round baby face. What cutesy 80s movie made a lot of money? ET!! Ya lets rip it off!
    Funnily enough, just yesterday a co-worker mentioned he heard BB has a Spielberg feel to it. No wonder when they ripped off ET LOL.

    Wrong. The amount of negative reviews given to Last Knight are the same number of positive reviews given to Bumblebee.

    The term you are looking for is "inspired by", which Knight has openly talked about. If we are gonna call it a rip-off, then we may as well call the Iron Giant a rip off of e.t, and every other similar film a rip-off of e.t, whether they are good or bad.

    Just watched it.

    Bumblebee is a quieter, less explosive and more character driven Transformer movie. It's basically an xmen: first class and xmen: dofp for transformers series. Bringing similar elements, while retconning all bayformers movies at the same time. The Decepticons are great again, and the fight scenes are easy to follow. If you look closer, Bumblebee is made with recycled parts, but arranged in a better way.

    Rating: 7.5/10

    I just saw it and very much enjoyed it. Opening sequence is totally like the FOC game and you see a few more recognisable - in a Transformers movie?? GASP! - classic characters than expected, with the only fugly Baybot designs being Shatter and Dropkick, transformation sequences are slower and clearer and the combat is no longer a motion blur of grey and brown pointy things rolling around the screen. Steinfeld is likeable enough for a human and the other supporting characters are fine, I suppose. Soundtrack is VERY 80s, in fact it’s a little bit TOO overdone at times, but that’s a minor quibble.

    For me, the only serious downsides were the pointlessness of making ‘Blitzwing’ Blitzwing, since we only ever see his robot and plane modes - any second string Seeker would have worked there instead of wasting a decent character - Shatter and Dropkick’s Baybot looks and the absolutely dreadful John Cena and his generic ‘army men’. That guy cannot act at all and all the military sequences were straight out of a particularly bad episode of The A-Team, which was a real shame when the rest of the film was so sharp.

    This film wasn't about Cybertron, it was about Bumblebee. Charlie added a lot to the movie and gave Bumblebee a chance to actually communicate and have character. You're lucky we actually got Cybertron scenes, in the early EARLY screenings, those scenes never existed. I can't stop you saying what you're saying but this film was great and was better than the bay films.
