Why do people get paid to be "critics"?

What credentials do thse guys or the tomato guys have that makes them qualified to read my mind on what type of movies I will or wont like?

I never understood why people follow these guys off a cliff like mindless zombies...must hate movie...critic guys say no good...feed me brains...smh

I liked all 5 Bay movies and all the new Star Wars movies....deal with it. [-(

Others are worse, I am sure. But to me TLK was more dissapointing and failed at delivering what I was hoping to see. I dont think anyone expected aything from the EMOJI movie and Bay Watch had the hot actors in swimwear. But Transformers had very little Transformers (or transforming) and a very small aount of Optimus and an even smaller amount of evil Optimus, which made up the main marktting of the film. So while I dont know if all this makes it worse, it definitely makes it most dissapointing.

Because it's just so fracking cool to belittle movies (and everything else) you don't like or agree with. This world, and almost everyone in it, has become a cesspool of hatred. With any luck, there's a large asteroid headed this way.

I'd have to agree on all of these two. And sure, these movies can be enjoyed on SOME level — just like you can enjoy a Big Mac and a big ole glass of sweet red "box wine" — judging them on any sort of serious, critical level as art, acting, dialogue, pacing, plot... they fall apart.

Props to the critics for their experience, knowledge of film history, and gall to flat out call-out a dud. #CallingASpadeASpade

And sure, I like Transformers and explosions, too.

Point is, this ain't no Citizen Kane... maybe not even a Police Academy 3... or Earnest Goes to Camp... or Madea Boo 2... or Sharknado 4....

And yeah, I bought it, too. (Hides in shame.) \\ :POPCORN:

I actually enjoyed TLK. By no means my favorite TF movie and it has issues, but I didn't think it was that bad. I didn't have the empty feeling that I had after seeing AOE, so that was an improvement.

Oh hell no. Blatant use of homophobic slurs is absolutely not tolerated. I would outright ban you for this, considering you did it knowing you shouldn't, unfortunately we have rules to follow, just like you. This is your first warning.

Yeah, sure, there were things I liked about it. Honestly, Mark doesn't bother me. I thought the mini Dinobots were adorable. (Pity they got as much/more screen time than the actual Dinobots.) Cullen and Welker are epic as always.

But I cringed every time Prime said "I'll KILL YOU!!" or the whole screen was filled with a bunch of dudes that just looked like knights of the round table instead of... well... you know... Transformers.

Transformers are iconic and cool enough to star in a movie without having to make them look like knights... or guys in trenchcoats... or Predators... or... Giger Aliens.... or Rastafarians... or... swirly dust clouds of morphing nanites...

But I digress.

Razzies. Warranted.

The real tragedy of this is that Isabella Moner (or whatever her name was, the girl who played Izabella "With a Z!") didn't get any nominations at all. She was easily the worst part of the entire movie. And that's saying something.

I came across the nomination list else where and I can't see the last knight taking home all the awards (after all have you seen the mummy? That trashes the legacy of movies made in the 1930s) but it will get some razzie treatment. Although I would be surprised if the higher ups at hasbro and paramount take any notice

TLK was indeed a bad movie. Not as horrible as AoE, but still bad.

By seeing the other nominee, there's FAR WORSE movies than TLK that deserves the awards. Except the "combo" one. Because it's hilarious.

People have to remember that The Razzies are just taking the piss. Quite often, the movies nominated are movies that I often enjoyed (I had low expectations for Baywatch but it turned out to be a good movie), while Oscar nominated movies I've either never heard of and then watch and don't really enjoy.

Critics, awards ... they don't define why you like or dislike a movie, don't let them influence your opinion.

People still care about The Razzies? Why? All they are is a pointless reward show giving bad movies people already know are bad a little meaningless title.

But by god Emoji movie is the one that deserves all of the bad rewards, there is pretty much nothing redeemable about that movie.

(It's funny fans think their important in the grand scheme of things, that's never been true and never will be fans are just another group of customers who so happen to be over dedicated and obsessed with the property)

Yes. Yes, I can.

Anyhoo, I saw the first bayverse Transformer film in theater, but that was the only one. I shrugged and watched it for what it was, a neat live-action version of toys that I liked. I winced through the juvenile humor, the bad writing the half-baked plot, and the annoying interpretations of the main characters. I figured "Hey, it was their first outing - they're just getting a feel for things. The next movie is bound to fix all those mistakes."

And the rest is history...

From what I gather, and from went Burn told me regarding the site's position on hosting/linking to full scans of the Legends comic (while it was on sale in Japan), Seibertron's "Rule 3" doesn't allow any content to be hosted or linked to while it is being sold, presumably in the USA (as the Legends comics, as part of the toys, were being sold while this site hosted/linked to images of them).

With regards to the soundtrack, there might be a time when TLKOS is unavailable, like AOE's is ( https://m.facebook.com/SteveJablonskyOf ... 4193663390 ). However, currently, TLK's is still available via iTunes. That said, the version being asked for is not the same as the version at iTunes, and is more akin to a "sample" than a full soundtrack. Thus, it could be considered as not being sold and as suitable as the comics to download.

However, Burn might have blocked the link, as he couldn't validate if it was SAFE. As the files were (ironically) grouped together in a zip folder, there is no way to know what is in them before opening. I'm not aware of any malware or viruses that can automatically infect any system upon opening a zip, though, so I'm still puzzled as to why they were removed.

You could always PM Burn, or the site. For me, someone already PMed me and simply gave me the link to get all of the files together that way.

There is a difference between something being good or bad and a person liking or disliking something.

It is entirely possible to enjoy something bad or not enjoy something good.

For me, Dunkirk was an excellent retelling of an historical event, but it left me bored out of my wits. I just couldn't get into it because I wasn't the right audience for it.

Conversely, the live action Super Mario Bros. movie and the two live action Flintstones movies are all really really dumb films and I love 'em! They're so stupid but endearingly so. :-D

I'm just glad 50 shades Darker was on there for pretty much every category. While TLK was disappointing, that movie series is far far worse, though still sad it stands on the same level

For me a film being "good" or "bad" means crap all as long as it's entertaining.

Like you said there have been really well crafted movies but they were just boring to watch.

Mean while there are movies that are "badly made" like the Room that leave me reeling in laughter.

This is why I like the Bay films (And the franchise as a whole) as bad as they can be, there have been some great things that I don't ignore.

Yeah, I mean, it's okay to like something bad or not like something good if you know you're liking something bad or disliking something good. I don't get why people must insist that liking something must always mean it's good or not liking something must always mean it's bad.

Like you said, The Room is a prime example of a horrendously terrible movie that is so entertainingly fun to poke fun at with how ridiculous it is. :lol:

Wait, it sounds like I can like or dislike something despite what other's think? ABSURD!

Next you'll be telling me that I shouldn't try and convince people to have the same opinion as me. That is crazy talk.

To be honest though, the only movie on any of the Razzie nom lists I've seen is 50 Shades Darker. I thought it was pretty bad and misrepresentative.

TLK is on the list... eventually :???:

I walked away from this mess of a movie feeling like everyone who sat through it deserved an apology from everyone involved in making it. The "plot" was total nonsense, and it seemed like it was written by a focus group of kindergartners that were swapped out every 5-10 minutes.

Justice League ended up surprising me on how much I ended up not disliking it, as it wasn't as awful as I was expecting it to be, as it ended up being a very middle-ground movie that wasn't great but also wasn't outright terrible either. It's probably the second-most decent of the DCEU films, with Wonder Woman still the only really good one.

I currently rank all the DCEU films like so:
Man of Steel: D or D-
Batman v. Superman: F
Suicide Squad: C-
Wonder Woman: A-
Justice League: C

Justice League ended up surprising me on both how much I ended up not disliking it, as it wasn't as awful as I was expecting it to be, ending up being a very middle-ground movie that wasn't great but wasn't outright terrible either. It's probably the second-most decent of the DCEU films, with Wonder Woman still the only really good one.

Most, if not all of these films are, IMO, disjointed. They lack cohesion, making me not really understand what or who I was looking at, or where the action was. The plot seemed thin, the human characters tacked-on and the Transformers were basically backgrounds with phases I had trouble understanding, featuring characterisations that seemed unnecessarily cruel and not in keeping with their original selves. The injection of unnecessary violence, (underage) sexual themes/misogyny, bodily functions, racial stereotypes, over the top product placement, Chinese government brown-nosing and suchlike seemed to be included to get funding and inject interest for the more cerebrally-challenged members of society.

I can sit through and watch all kinds of bad or mass market films (Top Gun, Marvel films, Pirates of the Caribbean) but I honestly cannot follow, yet alone be even be interested in Bay's films. They are beyond offensive, as to be boring, akin to listening to schoolchildren talking offensively in a playground.

In fact, it was so bad this time around, I couldn't even be bothered to buy the dvd or ticket, just to get the limited edition toy/s in Japan. If I had watched it for free on the internet, I would have asked Paramount to pay the parts of my internet and electricity bill that was wasted watching it.

TLK really did suck. Even my fiance, who I went with was like, 'wtf is this s**t?' I couldn't even follow anything, and the HUMAN is the last knight? Just like The Last Samurai.. give me a break. I wanted to walk out halfway through, and that is depressing for me.. :michaelbay:

Justice League is not bad.
Just very, VERY disappointing.

Honestly, the only part of TLK I genuinely enjoyed was the King Arthur battle scene at the beginning with Stanley Tucci as the drunk Merlin and Dragonstorm coming in to aid Arthur's knights.

Once that scene ended and we cut to the present day, everything else just felt so empty and bewildering as to why they were done the way they were.

I enjoy the Transformers movies.They are fun and alwasy seem to found new ways to use the Transformers themselves .
I dont mind if people dislike them,but I cant agree when some say they are unwatachable.

The point view can really change fromperson to person,so I dont think there is a really an singular way to define one good movie.

This.

Next you'll be telling me that I shouldn't try and convince people to have the same opinion as me.

Now imagine this every this time a movie comes out

i certainly hope that having played in what critics call one of the worst movies doesn't hurt Mark Wahlberg's career

Pfft, a couple bad movies ain't gonna do nothing to that man's career. He's got too much success in his pocket to be worried about either Transformers or Daddy's Home.
