Hmmm, Core Mythology, huh?
Whatever that means to them is one thing we will never really know. But, I do know what it isn't. It isn't ROTF. If it was, they wouldn't need to go back to it, would they?
Now, I'm not a fancy, high-class hollywood executive or anything like that, but isn't this something they should have addressed in, I don't know, THE FIRST 5 HOURS OF FEATURE FILM?
Granted, I watch the hell out of both movies... thanks to rifftrax. I wish I could watch them because they were good movies and not because they are easy to laugh at... At, not with.
After dozens of viewings of both, I can say with a clear conscious that I have absolutely no idea what any of the characters motivations are, nor why they interact with each other the way they do. I've been a human my whole life and can't understand the social gymnastics performed on screen by the humans in these films.
Transformers 3: Death of an Intellectual Property will follow the same pattern as the first two films, regardless of any nonsense spewed before hand by its financiers. Isn't this nearly the same thing they said before ROTF came out?
If anything, Bay should just keep doing the same crap he has done this far and keep any established cannon from the cartoons and comics out of it.
To paraphrase the ROTF Rifftrax at the moment of primes death:
Mike: Wow, his death had more emotional resonance in the animated version.
Bill: That's not a sentence you hear very often.
