    Just cover the suicide part with your hand and read it again.

    Yeah, you're being kind of pathetic. But whatever justifies your time watching the movie. I hope you feel like you "won" our "argument".

    Oh you're but a hypocrite ngnikolas, goes around calling people that liked it 'bad fans' or 'immature', just because you're indirect doesn't mean you guys ain't still talking shit about the others too.

    Some of you, "mature folks", can cry for a masterpiece toy commercial all you want, torture yourself everytime you see the movie getting money, accuse humanity of going down based on their movie tastes. That's not my problem, but the fact that people liked it SHOULDN'T BE YOUR PROBLEM either, you guys go around saying HURR PEOPLE SUPPORTING ARE KILLLING THE FRANCHISE, well, the majority seems to be liking it, wouldn't it mean that you guys, trying to change it, trying to get rid of Bay are the ones ruining it to the rest?

    Pretty sure we never asked you to off yourself. I don't know, I'm kinda senile, I'm real old.

    I can't beleive I'm saying this....maybe I'm just hung over, but I voted NO(and I've been an avid Bay hater for some time now (Cause Pearl Harbor sucked, just a little bit more than I miss you....lol) but I hope he at least does the 3rd one. The writers...now there's a different story. Get rid of em. Then maybe we can have a decent story to go with all those kick ass action scenes

    I never called anyone "immature" or a "bad fan". Nor do I give I-don't-wanna-know-who the satisfaction of "torturing" myself because the movie goes well. I feel bad, and I've explained why in many previous posts, but I don't cry in my pillow over Soundwave.

    And I never said that the praisers of ROTF are killing the franchise. They're just keeping it to low standards, which I'd like to see raised.

    Does that make me a hypocrite? Sorry pal, but don't judge only based on yourself.

    I would blame the writers myself, but they wrote a fantastic Star Trek movie. They also didn't write the ghetto bowdlerizations of Skids and Mudflap. It comes down to directorial talent.

    That's kinda because I never stated any kind of "ugh i've lost all faith in this place!" because of movie tastes, so there would be no reason to tell me to leave.

    But if you feel that the suicide hyperbole was that strong, I can change it to shooting your computer screen.

    I stated my desire to leave this place? But I'm a member for only three days! Maybe you're mistaking me with someone else?

    You said that people that didn't like the movie are the mature folks, in the past also showed disbelief that any smart person would've liked this movie, as I said, you were indirect, but the same way you can scavenge the movie for the bad parts I can notice that stuff in your words.

    That's what makes you a hypocrite.

    "Off yourself" means killing yourself. We never asked you to do that.

    No, you misunderstod. I didn't say that only the mature folks didn't like the movie, I said that it's natural that mature viewers would like to see something MORE than robots punching each other.

    I'm not being indirect. I clearly stated that I did not like this movie at all, unlike the first one, which I think it rocked.

    Except that, the killing yourself isn't 100% of the post, the idea behind it was maxing the effect of "if you don't like it leave" meaning of the post, kind of hyperbole y'know? It wasn't purely "YOU SHOULD TOTALLY KILL YOURSELF DUDE :)  ".

    Wasn't I clear? I even added "whatever way you find most fitting" because of that.

    Now, if we could hear this with Orson Wells' voice (bless 'm), that would be epic.
