I believe it can be done. I'm like a huge fanboy of TNMT. That was MY SHIT when I was a kid. No other toys mattered.

A video game like the Batman games would be soooo sick. A live action movie can certainly be done today and be good, it just needs to be the right people. I want it! I would be crazy excited. TNMT to me, is like star wars for those people.

in this one Bay probably is gonna write in that Megatron and Optimus Prime become great friends or some shit

Because the last one made a Billion dollars world wide. That might have a "Little" something to do with it.

How the hell did that piece of crap movie make a billion dollars? I couldn't finish watching it the first time through, and my 5 yr old son begged me to turn it off. We tried again later, and it was still a horrid craptastic movie that I walked off and did something else rather than suffer through the end of, FYI watched on Netflix.

The third was better than the second, but that wasn't saying much. It always comes down to the same stuff: Bay thinks he can write comedy, has the obligatory black guy in a shot that says some stereotypical black guy stuff (Anthony Anderson, Tyrese), then creates racist robots and gives them the same lines, lens flare, Shia Labeouf talking so fast that nobody can understand him, parents say something parents shouldnt say, lens flare, hot chick that can't act, lens flare, lens flare, Optimus kicks ass and is the only bright spot of the entire movie, lens flare, end credits. Thanks for the money.

Although I'm actually a big fan of the franchise, this is actually so true.

But don't forget the Shia Lebouf scream-like-a-girl scene they worked in the second and third ones. I think those are hilarious though.

Looks like Tyrese Gibson is going to be in 4 as well.

I'm not sure I get the hate for Transformers. They are action movies meant to entertain through really good special effects and robots that destroy each other and that's what they do. If you are looking for these movies to be some epic story for all time like LOTR and are subsequently disappointed then that's your fault.

I don't get it either.. I almost wonder if it has everything to do with it being Michael Bay.

Because they have possibly the worst dialogue in movie history? How is "It's an action movie" an excuse for shitty scripts? I've never understood that. Why should I settle for an inferior movie overall just because it's an action movie that has cool explosions?

Then you have to despise movies like Roadhouse.. or Steven Segal movies.
