Yeah... pretty much everyone hates Temple of Doom too. That's like saying "Why does everyone think Nazis are so bad? Haven't they ever heard of Hitler?"Dok Zombie said:
I think it was trying to fit a college coming of age movie in a Transformers movie that ruined it. I wanna see giant robots kicking each otehr's asses not someone's mom accidentally eating pot brownies. It wouldn't have mattered who played his role. No actor could have saved it.JeanLuc761 said:
I dunno felt like an indianna jones proper movie to me. At first I was like, "thats a bit outlandish" when they revealed the meat of the plot. But then i thought back, all of indianna jones movies involves some over the top ending. Soul sucking box anyone? I think LaBeouf did a good job in the movie and any shortcomings of the likability or believability of his character probably comes a bit more down to the writing. So I'm sure he could have done a better job but I don't think he ruined the movie, I don't think it was ruined. It's the victim of some harsh fanboys. Not fantastic but pretty good I didn't regret the ticket price. Blaming LaBeoufe for transformers is stupid. Writing, Cinematography and artistic direction killed those. But as they were financial successes we can expect more of it. I'm not gonna get off on a transformers rant here but certainly there was nothing the cast could have done to save that movie/movies. So i bear no particular hatred for labeouf or fox, they're prolly gonna be the sorts you see in a buncha half assed movies cause they got pigeon holed into it by thier breakout hits.
I think Spielberg screwed Labeouf when he said "I'm gonna make him the next Tom Hanks" I'm pretty sure Tom Hanks had more to do with that. So now if they guys not bringing you to tears hes failing as an actor. Still i guess his bank accounts gonna be ok.

I know what's wrong with him?StarStruckStrumpets said:
And I actually really like him as an actor, ever since Disturbia.
No kidding, it didn't help that they had that ridiculous "Seduction Transformer" either, WTF was that!?squid5580 said:
And seriously, whoever decided those two racist steriotype bots should be in the movie, should seriously be shot in the face.
I tend to agree, I think it was the "Aliens" angle, combined with things like the much criticized "Indiana Jones In A Fridge" nuke survival scene.
Also I'll be honest that one of the problems with movies like this is that they are too over-dramatic with some of these "lost temple opening" scenes and the like. Especially when you have this massive "permanant Opening" thing with collapsing stairs, breaking walls, dust of thousands of years going everywhere, and then AFTER that point they find the remnants of the guy who almost figured it out before them (or whatever).
It's simply overdone and doesn't make a lot of sense.

It wasn't a bad movie at all.. :/ I liked it, to be honest. If people are too fanyboy/fangirlish to accept anything after last Crusade, that's their problem. Indy 4 was awesome, and Shia is great. Yeah he was a bit too macho (or tried to be) in this movie, but overall he was still good. I kinda wanted to see him put Indy's hat on at the end.
Shia, if you ever read this: don't blame yourself. You were pro

That's... seriously mature of him. Personally I loved the movie, but I think LaBeouf deserves a lot more credit than he gets; this is undeniable proof, this statement. I don't really see what's so bad about his acting anyways. If he gets too bad for me to handle, I just imagine it's not even Shia, it's the kid from Even Stevens. It's not the kind of entertainment they intended, but it is extremely entertaining regardless.
You seriously are a bastard. Nobody asked your opinion, so kindly leave, or at the very least come over here so I can rip your balls off and shove them down your throat. I call it "The Crescent Moon".Hopeless Bastard said:
Wow. I'm actually starting to respect this kid. He actually owns up to his mistakes like an adult, instead of dodging the issue.(Although if the movie was bad, it was probably more the fault of the writers, but hey, it's the thought that counts) I might have to stop typing his name as Shia LeBOOF all the time.
On a somewhat related note, I didn't think Indy 4 was all that bad. Sure, it got ridiculous at times, but the franchise isn't exactly known for it's dedication to realism, and about the aliens....Why the hell do people hate aliens so much? I don't get it. "Dark gods? Fine. Evil Spirits? Fine. Ancient clans of Immortals? Fine. Aliens? WHAT THE FUCK? WHY ARE THERE ALIENS IN MY INDIANA JONES?"
Seriously, are really that out of place?
EDIT: Hell, why not? LeBOOF(couldn't resist), if you're reading this, I know you get a bad rap, but pretty much everyone famous does. You aren't a bad actor. Like I said, I liked Indy 4, and so did a lot of others. Now Transformers....Well, that's hardly your fault. That's all due to Michael Bay. Blame him, not you. *pats on the back* Ok, Buddy? Ok.

As much as it pains me to say this, no, I wasn't LaBouf's fault. It was the fault of a very terrible writer and George Lucas for sticking his dick up Indiana Jones's ass. That movie was so horribly written, I didn't have time to notice if anyone was doing a bad job of acting.
