Haha, Jeremy Jahns complained about the changing aspect ratios. @WrathOfHan

So after reading the reviews, I've officially bought my ticket. This is the type of film that sounds like it's gonna be so bad that it's good. I can't wait to see all the explosions and CGI. Screw all character development. Who is asking for that in a film about a bunch of robot cars going around destroying shit? 

 

Sign me the fuck up for this!

LMFAO

Good lord, lol. Now we know how Hopkins agreed to this film.

Depends, how elaborate is the comic relief slaughter?

[ChiSoxRox]

@WrathOfHan The trailers were on the greatest mission of all: to turn the tide of human history.

AMAGAD this RottenTomatron™ reviews shockwave gonna reach Cybertron

I didn't expect anything less from Michael Bay than him to go out with a bang in the shape of 1 digit RT score.
C'mon Bay, you can do it!

Village Voice spoiler review, very funny...https://www.villagevoice.com/2017/06/20/heres-what-the-new-transformers-movie-is-like/

 

Spoiler

In the opening scene of Transformers: The Last Knight, we are presented with the spectacle of King Arthur and his knights locked in an existential battle for the survival of human civilization, even though we’re not really told who or what they’re fighting for. No matter, because this after all is a Transformers movie, so soon we’re faced with

Lol, I was going to post that same review.

[grey ghost]

Anthony Hopkins' soul slowly dying with each line of goofy, frat boy dialogue has my morbid curiosity.

 

Not paying full price tho. 

 

Fool me three times, can't get fooled again.

Average Rating: 3.2/10

Critics Consensus: Cacophonous, thinly plotted, and boasting state-of-the-art special effects, The Last Knight is pretty much what you'd expect from the fifth installment of the Transformers franchise.

Those reviews make me really wanna watch it even when they are telling me not to! It's so strange, every time they mention some plot point, moment or character that they thought sucked I'm like "duuuude, that sounds so rad!", not even exaggerating, it really does sound more and more awesome the more I read about it.

 

I just have to watch it now! And to think I was going to skip this one, bah!

[Noctis]

Cacophonous? RT taught me a new word...
