I've been stewing over some of the threads i've been reading over the past week or so. The overwhelming negative reaction to the good news about us finally seeing a trailer on Superbowl Sunday is what put me over the edge.
So many of my fellow tankers so obviously want this movie to fail because the characters aren't dressed in primary colors or because one of their favorite characters is black now or WHATEVER their reason for hating this movie before they've seen even two consecutive frames rubbing up against each other. There are other, more sensible members who are waiting to see the movie (if not AT LEAST the trailer) to reserve judgement before they cast it to the pit of move despair. So here's my question: what are you haters going to do with yourselves if the movie DOESN'T SUCK? Doesn't have to be a great flick. Doesn't have to be the next Dark Knight. Just not be awarded a Rotten Tomato at the end of next year. So, movie-haters, IF it's a DECENT FLICK, will YOU do?

E)
I'll admit I don't have high hopes, but it could work. Honestly, the main problems I have are the changed uniforms and poor casting. |

Eat my words?
Basically have someone type out every bad thing I've ever said about the movie and then cut it up and put it in some spaghetti. But judging from the toys and the images so far. It looks to be decent. |

If the movie doesn't suck, it will still suck for me.
Joking. But I have a very bleak outlook for the movie. I just keep having visions of retooled vintage vehicles painted in some horrible futuristic camo scheme with those lame launchable rockets all over them...It's been keeping me up at night.

F) pray that its success results in the expansion of the 25th-style/Modern Era toy line to include more figures from the ARAH line-up

Much like the recent TF movie, it WILL suck if you go see it with an expectation of seeing original cartoons brought to life.
Do yourself a favor, go see it...to see a good movie. Nothing more, nothing less.

A. I've got a huge pair and I'll tell you I've eaten shit before and will continue to do so. But I have to say in my own defense, movies these days are collectively pitiful to begin with, factor in the following, it's a summer flick, so we know the quality of those, they're releasing it in August which is usually the month the studios save their crap for, anxious to get the big money makers out in May, June and July the latest. That indicates even the studio thinks its a flash in the pan. The cast is less than excited about it due to interviews with Joe Levitt and Sienna Miller. The finally there is the X-Men rip off uniforms, and no one can give the well they can't wear yellow spandex answer. They are military, they can wear military outfits. Marlon Wayans aside I can give a rat's ass about him being cast in a white role. I don't really care for him or the character he's playing, I don't use that particular thing to prevent me from enjoying the film. I don't like that this is an alternate universe story and Scarletts from Australia and Snake Eyes is French. That crap just burns me. Also I wrote a script with a co-writer and we submitted it and it was refused because it was to American. So I'm bitter. We shall see.
