Thread: Transformers:Dark of the Moon

Massawyrm loves the everloving **** out of TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON
Ain't It Cool News: The best in movie, TV, DVD, and comic book news.

****. Yes. Absent are the stepandfetchbots. Exiled is every bit of robot genitalia. And someone even told the Transformers to empty their bladders before the movie. Just about everything terrible that has come to annoy the living **** out of fans from the last two movies is gone. What’s left? Pure unadulterated Michael Bay for two hours and forty minutes. You read that right. Robots, cars and explosions for two hours and forty minutes. If that sounds terrible to you, then seriously, what the **** are you doing even thinking about seeing a Michael Bay movie? If you’re still holding out hope that Bay has discovered such subtle nuances as “story”, “character” or “dialog” then I’ve got a bridge to sell you. Those ain’t his bag. Bay is the reigning king of blowing **** up, and here he manages to outdo even himself. And if that’s what you want out of TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON then you will clap and giggle like a three year old tasting ice cream for the first time.

Bay attacked this thing like he had something to prove, and let’s face it, he did. After the complete and utter mess that was TRANFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN - a film for which even his most devoted and diehard fans wanted to see him on the receiving end of a CALIGULA wedding scene re-enactment – he needed to come back and be all the Bay he could be. And boy howdy, did he. But not only did he make a better film than the second (by a wide margin) he managed to make an even better film than the first. The first film wowed us with giant robots; this film wows us with giant robots going positively medieval on one another while tearing apart an entire city doing it.

Yawn. RT is aggregating all the bad reviews again? There's a surprise.

After seeing DOTM tonight, this is without a doubt the best 3D movie since Avatar. This is the total all-out, brutal, TF on TF, TF on human, and human on TF *war* movie that everyone wanted since TF1 ended.

As for run time, it started @ 8:50pm and was over by 11:17pm.

PS: go see it!

At first I feared that the Transformer's franchise would be boiled down to 'huge robots blowing **** up', and while the first one was just that, it also contained enough nods to the past to make fanboys like me smile and pretend that there was a little depth there. Trans 2 destroyed everything on every level, and it's a crime that it was financially successful. Now for the 3rd one, if it can be 'huge robots blowing **** up', I'll be happy.

I wasn't planning on watching the third, but just went after work. Michael Bay really toned down the random slowed down camera zoom in on hot chick, but it was still unnessary, but dammit that Rosie lady was purdy and could actually act. Sam's mother was right, dude must be packing. As for the rest of the film, an actual plot? Amazing!

So some of you peeps are wholeheartedly recommending this movie? :O

I didn't even know they were giving out zero stars.

it was terrible. I genuinely enjoyed the first one but the second and third ones sucked.

Just saw this tonight in 3D. Liked, not loved, the first one. But i thought it was enjoyable and met the hbo rewatchability test. 2nd one is beyond belief horrible. could barely muster threw it in the theater and never watched it again.

this one... wow. shocked how much i liked it. yes its long but it doesn't drag. there are some teeth grindingly bad attempts to be funny but it is really toned down. the 3d is filmed like avatar so its done well.. meaning he sets shots to film in 3d and its not just convereted in post. the reason why this film is not usual hyper-edited bay is because the 3d forced him to slow everything down.

bravo sir. film everything in 3d. you can actually follow the action and not get a headache. it reminded me of spiderman in that by the 3rd one (even tho it was also terrible) raimi really knew how to film the scenes where spiderman swings between buildings and everything was very fluid. same thing here. bay now knows how to film this sucker to maximize robot blowing up awesomeness.

look.. you don't go to this thing other then to see big f'ing robots beat the living hell out of each other and to see ***** blow up realy purdy. success.

I don't know about you guys, but I absolutely hate Rolling Stone magazine. I hate everything about it, especially the reviews. Maybe once upon a time it wasn't too bad, but ever since the mid 90's I'd rather die than read their lame ass opinions
