    Dunno if the full title displays, so:

    To reduce whining, would you want a film more to their ideals? Just to reduce fighting, bickering, whining, etc. etc., would you want the movies to me more like they (the side you disagree with) want?

    Just to see if they are right?
    To prove them wrong?
    Any other reason?

    Unfortunately, human nature leads me to believe that someone somewhere is gonna complain about anything. Now don't get me wrong. Extinction was terrible, so much so that I've been scared off from the rest of the films, but I doubt the whiners will stop whining just because a film fits their ideals.

    It's a hypothetical compromise.

    No matter what the content, they're will always being someone to "whine" (since we're into belittling those with complaints) about it. It's just part of the wide wide world of creative entertainment.

    The day there aren't people "whining" about something, is a more worrisome thought than having too many "whiners."

    Star Wars is a perfect example of this. It's definitely made me scale back on claiming myself a "fan" of the series anymore.

    I've been seeing this a lot from some posters here. The "I hate the fandom" and "I'm embarrassed to call myself a fan" responses, but why. It's not like Joe Q public or the casual movie goer is coming here to read all about Tranformers, and thinks to themselves "Look at those whiny TF fans! They're such nerds arguing over something they're passionate about. I"m gonna tell my friends to look down upon them." The reality is that few outside of this fandom gives two-shits about how we act or what we talk about.
