Enjoyed the stream even if there was minor audio loss here and there. Very good pictures from your friend as well. Hope TF5 has an equally enjoyable presentation in 2016.
one thing is certain they hype these movies up alot. The actual hype is alos way better than the product they sell (ie movies) Just going to say this. As movies they suck (so far) and as a transformers movie they are horrendously wrong in so many ways. I cant wait for this psuedo fan base to dissolve quickly onto the next big thing so that we can move on to maybe a reboot with some depth character and story that is in some way a shade of what we all like about transformers not just the average consumer who could care less about who optimus prime is or was. Done just done with this and the hype machine. I want bumblee bee to be Bumble bee I want optimus to be ops I want what these characters have been in just about every iteration to be that and not just this bad ass version of every character. I cant even stand hound because in the one way they got him right they cant even name him who he really was " Bulkhead" He looks like bulkhead even has the right vehicle form but for Bay sake he is now hound. That angers me we cant even get new characters right just to appease the almighty baygasm
wow today is a busy day in the transformer world. this and botcon all in one day. head going to explode.
I agree with some of your points, but part of me got really annoyed as well. Not everyone sees it your way (for the most part, I do). I realized the film franchise wasn't going to be G1 or any of the other toons that came out before the film. I had problems with ROTF and DOTM. But I'm still a TF fan, and instead of griping about shit that I can't change, I choose to enjoy them for what they are. I'd rather have something than nothing. You should thank the film series for strengthening our hobby. That is all
