No, that isn't really fair. By that logic the next TF movie could get 50% RT score and be considered a masterpiece.....
How is it not fair?
Its a movie not a oppressed community....calm down.
-
Yeah, but is it nessecary? Why should they change who they are? Story arcs for characters are great, but they'ren't obligatory. IMO of course.
It may not be necessary if the movie is plot driven but this movie was character driven so it becomes essential.

Well, it's not realistic that's for sure, and unfair..
Why?
I'm kinda sick of these posts. I have the right to compare TA2 to its predecessor and I don't have too lower my expectations to be impressed. My opinion is the movie is good not great. It runs too long, its uneven, zero character development and almost zero plot. I had fun but its not memorable or great. Others share that opinion and the rest don't. If you can't face opposing opinions or try to lessen someone's opinion based on some nonsensical reasoning....that is your issue alone.

I'm glad I am not the only one who felt this was good but not great. There really is no character development in this movie. That was my major issue. Everyone is pretty much the same from the beginning of the first movie

The first is horrendous. This sounds like it will be worst.

7/10 or a solid B.
Pros
- great action
- good one liners
- humour
- good chemistry between characters
- Vision is cool
Cons
- Too much action sometimes and the best action sequences are in the first half of the movie
- Wafer thin plot
- Character motivation is weird (Why did the Hulk leave? Stark hasn't learnt anything from the previous installment etc..)
- Ultron comedic side makes him less threatening
- Hawkeye's family seems shoe horned in just to give him something to say and do
Overall I think I enjoyed TA1 more than TA2 but I still had fun.

Transformers is the only franchise in which we desperately need FEWER female characters or preferably NONE AT ALL.
What characters? Its just a bunch of noise and explosions.
-
There is always one breakthrough horror movie that crosses into mainstream. I think Poltergeist will be big but purely because of its brand recognition.

The answer is yes. TA2 will be huge but SW7 I honestly don't see it surpassing TA2.

deep down every movie about teenagers wants you to want to see them killed.
FIFY
The trailer for unfriended looked decent but it didn't grab me like Paranormal Activity did. Plus they should have released this near Halloween.

On Friday, it will cross $1B becoming the fastest film ever to reach this milestone (breaking the record held by Avatar, Deathly Hallows - Part 2 and The Avengers).
Just shocking
-
Wait, what? 400m?! Surely you guys are joking.
Its already at $120M in just 3 days and is not showing any slowing down.

So does Fast Seven look likely to beat Potter worldwide and become the number four film ever? I'm not great with international numbers. Seems like an additional 541 million wouldn't be TOO hard if it does 100 more domestic (at least).
I doubt it. I think it will cross $1.1bn just. But I am terrible at reading OS numbers.

LOL this leak. HBO, what kind of mess?
Can't lie I've watched all four episodes. Pretty good so far.

FAST AND FURIOUS 7 MAKES $800M WW. DISCUSS!

Hot mess you guys created here. Fucking congrats.

I maintain that Battleship is a much better film that Bayformers.

Where does that leave Battleship?

Any movie that stops the music and takes massive dramatic pauses before Vin Diesel delivers a one-liner multiple times one movie has clearly weaponized stupidity into a self-aware, tongue-in-cheek blast. Transformers is constructed with every ounce of its fiber to be a legitimate movie and not a tongue-in-cheek ride. Fast is the Colbert Report to Transformers O'Reilly Factor.
-
People hate Bay so much they ll always find reasons to proove his brand of dumb is more st00pid than everything else.
Ah, the self aware argument, Brilliant.
I bow down.
This has nothing to do with Bay. FF7 is grade A stupidity but the action sequences work because we actually have a connection to the characters because we have been through a lot with them plus they work so well together.
TF (excluding Shia) is filled with empty characters who shout at the screen when something blows up. There is no chemistry between any of them and they are basically just macguffins to drive to another explosion or location.

I wouldn't say FF characters have chemistry.
-
Why the insult part ?
Is your condescending attitude really necessary, here ?
I am not sure.
FF and TF are both dumb but, as already stated, FF is self-aware and actually focuses on characters who have REAL chemistry.

245.1M OS + 147.2M Domestic = 392.3M WW OW.
Looks like WW actuals may push it over Avengers' 392.5M WW OW.
Crazy......just crazy
Weekend Estimates: Age of Adaline - 13.4M; Furious 7 - 18.3M; Ex Machina - 5.4M | Avengers - 201.2M OS OW (55% markets)
