I just hated how the ending was so abrupt and so traditional. It made you walk a long way to end the same formulaic way you thought.

People bitched about The Social Network having an abrupt ending, but that movie's ending actually had a good sense of closure. Especially when compared to TF3's ending!

For another awful movie trying to appeal to all the easily entertained morons in the world, Captain America had a surprisingly decent ending.
The ending of Transformers was abrupt, but you could predict what would happen at least one hour before it got over-- you just didn't know when it would end.

I just can't stand how people can be amused by three movies worth of gratuitous special effects, lame action sequences, and auditory piercing metal and I'M the dumb one because I can appreciate "high art."

I can't tell which robots are good an which are bad, they all look the same.
PS: Don't you mock me for not liking Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and all that crap, MR. High Art.

PS: Don't you mock me for not liking Scott Pilgrim vs. the World and all that crap, MR. High Art. You didn't even see Scott Pilgrim vs. The World. Yet you call it crap. If you gave it time you'd see it's a fun, exciting film that was really nostalgic and enjoyable. I was using the "high art" comment as a joke because that's what some people have claimed Transformers: Dark of the Moon was.

It was the shit of all cinematic shit! In fact, the following best sums TF3 up as film AND shows just how Michael Bay and Stephen Spielberg made it:

I'd also like to mention that I just debated with several of my friends on this film and the entire franchise itself. Just like grinding, I lost in the vote that Transformers is awesome 3-1. I told my friends that you guys do not focus on coherency, development, dialog, and characters like I do. All you want is mind-numbing action sequences that lack suspense because they never end and are indescribable. The remarks they were making were hilarious, "Rosie Huntington-Whitely is so hot!" So, do you like the movie, or botox babe #22?
I've been thinking a lot about it and can conclude that Transformers: Dark of the Moon and the entire franchise is awful and dangerous. Awful because of its incoherency, and dangerous because when kids watch these films, many of them believe that that's the only reason to watch a film; for the action scenes. Not for the intelligence, not for the experiences, but solely for the action sequences. Michael Bay is the leader of fast food filmmaking.

Not for the intelligence, not for the experiences, but solely for the action sequences. Michael Bay is the leader of shit filmmaking. Fixed! But seriously, Bay is the Antichrist of cinema and people are just bowing down before is filmmaking "awesomeness." Why can't people see that he is just as bad as Uwe Boll and Friedberg & Seltzer? Why give him, a talentless hack, millions of dollars, when there are so many far-more deserving directors out there. As for the TF franchise, and not just the movies, it has become a disgusting, vile, abomination of it's once brilliant idea for a concept. Seriously, back in the 80's and 90's, TF's were some of the best toys around (because they had so much creativity and originality behind them). In fact, Beast Wars was one of the most acclaimed cartoons of the 90's! Now look at TF! It just sickens me and I am ashamed to call myself a fan. It is just more evidence as to why I KNOW that God does not exist and that there is little hope for humanity. I have said this before and I'll say this again: the Transformers franchise NEEDS to just die-off permanently and NEVER come back. If only Hasbro hadn't canned Transtech, then TF could have been given a proper conclusion and Hasbro could come up with a new original toy franchise. But no! They had to make excuses to recycle previous material repeated, and as result: constantly beat a dead horse. I know you were never a TF fan, Steve, but if you would just watch one, just one, episode of the Beast Wars cartoon, then you will understand my plight.

Least Micheal Bay and Steven Speilberg didn't rape Optimum Prime like Speilberg and Lucas raped Indiana Jones god aliens in a Indiana Jones movie and surrving a A-Bomb blast in a refrigerator WTF!

Just want to go on record saying this is the most hate I've garnered from one single review. I have four to five people at my school infuriated about this review. So did your review of The Passion ended up topping this one in terms of most hate garnered?

So did your review of The Passion ended up topping this one in terms of most hate garnered? That's the beauty of criticism. It gets people talking and people commenting. I would say this tops Passion. I've gotten some hate for my four star review here, and really none at school since many kids like the film. Transformers 3, it's a whole different story.

Regardless, how do you think the Transformers trilogy would have turned out if Mel Gibson had directed it? I personally think it would have been A LOT better if he had done it.
