800 fucking million dollars?

Holy fucking fuck

Fuck

[theultimatebiu]

Where does that leave Battleship?

 

[Ozymandias]

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

 

[CoolioD1]

I ll finish by saying that I love Transformers movies and Fast and Furious movies just as much.

Peace to all.

I'm quite the fan of both franchises as well.

 

 

you're still dumb.

Stupid money for F&F. I assume another film's happening?

[water]

i haven't seen any of the f&f movies (yet) but the fact that they appeal to everyone from dudebros to feminists objectively makes them not stupid

[The Futurist]

With those numbers, Universal will never leave this franchise.

From what I've read of reviews it appeals to people who think the action, one liners and dumbness are genuinely cool and those who enjoy it ironically. Either way, the movie wins.

It's never goodbye.

82% rt is nothing to scoff at either

Theme park ?

Theme park ?

It is getting a ride at Universal Studios Hollywood.

And soon, an educational kids' cartoon on PBS a la the Magic School Bus, except it's now a Dodge Challenger.

I maintain that 100 is greater than 50.

 

Stating the obvious

[Warhorse]

Everybody always wanna rush into whining about Bay. Beautiful. 

Eh, I'm sure he still doesn't give any fucks! So all of this bashing and whining about him, is pretty fruitless. It's not making his workload or wallet any lighter!

So we should only discuss things if we can affect their paycheque?

FF is not self aware as far as I'm concerned, it's far too melodramatic. It's boring, uninteresting, unfunny and dumb.

But Michael Bay is just on another level. He thinks he's funny, he thinks he's smart, and he just isn't. His movies are absolutely foul. I don't like Fast and Furious but I don't hate it. Bay movies just make me want to hurt someone.

I like this comparison,

Transformers is like iJack, Fast is like Shay. One is long, boring, and gives you a headache if you watch/read it in full, the other you just want to watch 7 times over.

[Hatebox]

Apparently F&F has a moment where The Rock breaks out of his arm cast just by flexing. I just can't believe a movie that has something like that happen isn't a little self-aware.
