Animated by hand? As opposed to what, animated by feet?

Look at its original source, though: pretty dark comic books. Besides, I mentioned in my previous blog entry that Dark Knight did better at maturing the franchise than Transformers, and I also said why I believed that was the case. Just in case you're curious.

........because honestly, who after a hundred years of being in a cryosleep frozen coma, wakes up saying "I am Megatron!!!"? Really, why are they fighting this guy?! He's greeting all the new faces he sees, he's not being antagonizing at all!

In all seriousness, it's not awesome because of the corniness of the line, and the hamminess of the way Hugo Weaving delivered it. And it was trying TOO hard to be awesome, but as I said in my previous blog, I can't take a PG-13 movie seriously when all of its other incarnations have been for little kids, and it shows in the way its presented.

Please elaborate, Janus. I explained why I thought Transformers' graphics were somewhat good at best and mediocre at worst, so I'm curious to see your point of view on it.

No, but cartoony doesn't either.

Thanks, Admiral Alex Humva.

Oh, that's the only possible way I can't like this movie, right? Never mind opinion or my preferences in plot quality over explosion quantity, I'm just looking at it wrong! Ah, that makes sense! If I looked at it the way I'm supposed to, I would LOVE this movie like it was the greatest piece of art since the Mona Lisa! That makes perfect sense!

Heavy sarcasm aside, can't you just accept the fact I don't like something you like and move on? You could argue the same thing about me, and why I would post this at all, but remember, it's not like I just posted it for no reason, I was pressured beyond belief about how wrong I was that I didn't worship this movie like everyone else, thus I wrote it in my defense.

Yeah, I guess that's true.

Jeez, you don't have to take my opinion so seriously. Sure, it's about alien robots and hot chicks and explosions. But the way I looked at it, they were REALLY trying to make it epic. And looking at comments of a lot of other people about this movie, I hear things like "it was the most epic movie EVER!" or "It has to be two hours long, it's more epic that way." So they seem to think it's epic, and that's who I'm directing this too.

And I highly doubt they used real human blood for the movie. There are makeup artists for a reason.

You know, it's funny you're trying to convince me that there isn't a lot of CGI, or at least not the main focus, in the Transformers movies by saying "oh, the only thing that's CGI in it are the Transformers themselves". Dude, they're the ENTIRE FOCUS OF THE MOVIE. It's like trying to convince a vegetarian to eat a hamburger by saying the only part that's meat is the actual burger. Doesn't work.

True. I'm not forcing people to hate these movies. I just wanted a safe place to show my views of them without being flamed endlessly and cluttering other topics.

Hey, I had fun writing this. I'm a writer. More writing for a writer is always appreciated. And 5 pages is NOTHING compared to what I should've done.

Oh, and WCX, you're right, and that's exactly the problem. People are enjoying it for all the wrong reasons. That's not really the sign of something good, IMO.

If that made any sense at all, I might make a witty retort.

Jim Cummings can also have a very menacing voice, just look at him as Cortez in the Road to El Dorado.

Funny! You need to try to see if she likes goldfish. Maybe next time I come over, I'll bring some Goldfish over.
