Megan Fox Quits Transformers Movies
- Thread starter Logan Westbrook
- Start date
Hopefully no-one will replace her, honestly I could handle the military parts of the first movie, and the little bits they had in the second, but the kids and their families? ugg. I want giant robots kicking the crap out of each other, not listening to some dumb twit babble on.
Agreed, going to Michael Bay movies for depth is like using David Caruso one-liners to sound clever. But DAMN his action scenes are awesome.Sonicron said:
On-topic: I think Megan Fox quitting'll be a good thing. It'll drive the whole movie focus back to the frigging robots.
So, one pair of boobs is gone... not that anyone really remembers (or wants to) but there were plenty more to choose from in ROTF. So, don't celebrate just yet.
Besides, there's still plenty more shit to be redeemed. The main actress leaving and the main actor admitting to coming across as a douche (hey, at least he admits it) are the least of our concerns when bad scriptwork and cinematography are the real fundamental problems. And then there's the "humour".
So basically, my thoughts are, "Megan Fox left? So what?"

Are you actually implying that close up shaky cameras make for a better action scene? Not only does it do fuck all to engage the viewer into the scene (It mostly just makes the damn thing hard to watch), it's nauseating as all fuck.manicgreenapple said:
OT: Until the entire project is scrapped and picked up by someone who actually knows what he fuck he's doing this upcoming movie will be shit.
and slowmo... and any other stupid gimmicks... oh don't forget useless characters who don't mean anything or characters that disappear half way through, or characters who appear in two places at once. Transformers with powers they never had just so they look cool.. not to mention random scenes that have only partway something do to with whats going on when they are shoved in the middle of another scene... plus a million other things... I enjoyed Trannies 2 but god damn it was a shit movie.Onyx Oblivion said:
You got that a bit wrong Furb. I can't compare Transformers 2 to Avatar since I haven't seen Transformers 2 (while I genuinely like Bay, just didn't interest me).Furburt said:
It's just that you called those movies "bland, dull and unimaginative" and that's basically my review of Avatar.
So, in other words, I'm just being a nitpicky jerk (and I love it, btw).
When the hot stupid girl abandons ship, that's when you start running as fast as you can.
btw, I was going to make some joke because everyone forgots her name but I forgot it while scrolling down.

None of those words are accurate to describe Trannies 2, the movie was shit, but it was imaginative, exciting, and colourful.JourneyThroughHell said:
Yes, I happen to really like that kind of camera movement. Probably the reason why I like movies like Cloverfield even though almost everybody else got a headache from it.AndyFromMonday said:
OT: I wonder how they're going to explain Mikaela disappearing from Transformers 3.
Sadly, mine start to fade and fail me quite often.Furburt said:
Well, that's quite a contradiction, don't you think? I have never heard of "exciting shit".theshadowcult said:
Good move for her, bad move for the movies. Like her or not, the way they were actually coming out during the promotion of Revenge of the Fallen and basically saying that she was just there to show some T&A and get little boys excited was frankly quite an insult (even if it was the truth for the most part). Should be interesting to see what they do with the character in the next one.. probably more interesting than the actual movie itself.
She didn't quit, she was dropped due to her comments about Bay last year.
Though quite frankly, she's be doing porn now if it weren't for him picking her up.
He's still the devil though.

You don't see the irony of your post (or mine for that matter) AHHHH cyclic pointlessness!Eyelicker said:I had to laugh at just how redundant and pointless that comment wasHK_01 said:
I don't think people should hold out for a reboot. I don't see how the franchise can ever be more than a mindless blockbuster. The new videogame set on cybertron during the war sounds much more promising to me (its cartoon canon so it will look cool at least)
As for comparing Avatar to Transformers I don't see how you can make that comparison really, Thematically, stylistically or 3difically they are totally different movies. It just sounds like you don't like big budget effects driven movies.
Huzzah for asses starting one man jazz ensembles ^_^. When your ass gets famous and has live performances can i get a front row seat........wow that sounded worse than i thought O_O.Pegghead said:
