I want a new version of that every summer.  :cool:

There was this wonderful invention called Blu-Ray.  Oh, wait, we already had DVD.  Oh, wait, it was on fucking VHS.

They don't actually need to remake the movie every summer for you to rewatch it, you know.

Unfortunately, it's the Timmays of the world out there that drive Hollywood to angle at the lowest common retarded denominator.

Just check the latest trailer, I was expecting Will Smith riding Optimus Prime at some point.

"Hit it!"
"Boom."


My god, such poetic writing; coupled with the intense melodrama of a world stricken by war could mean an easy ticket to the Oscars next year.  :cry:

At the very least I expect them to include Liam Neeson screaming at the top of his lungs "They sank my carrier!!!!!11111oneoneone".

Several singers have won acting Oscars. Jennifer Hudson, Cher, Barbra Streisand, Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra...

I thought you were joking, so I had to see this trailer :P
Sadly, you were not.

Still, it looks dumb enough to make a ton of money.

Wait, that's how you make money?  Why did they teach the opposite in school?  Goddamn it!  Damn me and my magnificent brain, doomed to a life of poverty! :(
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

It takes very intelligent people to make dumb movies.

Seeing as all movies are priced the same in theaters, you can't exactly charge more for a superior product.  So you need to appeal to the masses.  Having 1% of the general population interested in your movies doesn't pay a lot.  having 50% interested in your movies pays.
