What does /tv/ think about these movies? I know they're generally considered stupid, but are they so stupid they're funny/entertaining?
Not at all. Watch Furious 7 for that
They aren't even good as dumb popcorn movies. My brain will never be able to turn off enough for me to enjoy it.

No.
I am amazed by it though, they made the same movie 4 times and it was worse and worse each time but they make so much money
Tbqh tho it's a bit hypocritical to see he same nerds who love capeshit hate this cuz they are basically the same
>>69712512
Normies love to hate transformers to feel better about themselves. They shit on it and then proceed to talk how amazing Ant-man was.
The action scenes are so poorly directed they give me headaches. The comedy is dumb, not in a stupid funny way, but in an insulting way, and the incoherence of it all is just jarring and insulting on so many levels. Really bad movies.
Fast and Furious is where you want to go for big dumb action blockbusters.

Never seen 4, but I agree on rest
Never fell for the "but 3 was the good one" meme

It's because they shit on the characters and have that shitty Michael Bay humor. They tried to recreate that scene in the 1980s movie where Megatron offers Optimus a truce and Optimus accepts it then Megatron kills him, but Bay just decided to have Optimus rip off Megatron's head. Completely ignoring the whole "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings'
Also just remove the humans and it'll be watchable

This.

Optimus is more of a space Arnold than space Jesus in these. He just throws one liners and shoots everyone in the head.
>>69713014
Also, how come in the first movie, he can't even beat Megatron and was willing to sacrifice himself, but in the third one, he just decapitates him in 3s with one arm?
>>69714060
Megatron was very weak in Transformers 3 due to his injuries.
What's more funny is that after Megatron dies in Transformers 1 he says
>You left me no choice brother...
But in 3 he mercilessly rips off his head.
>>69714347
This too
>>69712319
I can't believe there has been 5 of these and not once has a Transformer been the main character
>>69714404
Anon we had 4
>>69712319
Some of the most enjoyable movies ever if you like giant robots beating the shit out of each other for 3 hours, which I do. Extinction was great because it took it to the next level with robot dinosaurs.
>>69714431
the new one is going to have a human as a main character as well.
>>69712319
>are they so stupid they're funny/entertaining?
no they are not.
>>69714395
>Survived a war big enough to rip apart literally his entire planet which he then had to destroy thanks to some half-ass plan by his idol and meth addict nemesis
I know it's 'NOT MUH OPTIMUS', but I'm amazed it didn't come to this sooner.
The first one is pretty good. I mean, jot fantastic, but it's good. A little lowbrow at times, but nothing jarring or drastic.
>>69714588
Transformers 1 isn't good, it's just not as bad as the others.
>>69714588
>Transformers 1 is good meme
They are all more or less the same movie, saying 1 is great, rest are awful is just stupid.
>>69714853
How is that not the same thing?
>>69714995
No, the other three or four are pretty horrendous. I particularly loath the scene where a human talks (face-to-face) Megatron into attacking Sentinal (I think that was his name) as if it were an episode of Doctor Who.
the First one was pretty good(as a popcorn flick)
The second one was intolerable
The third one was good too
The 4th one was beyond intolerable(I liked the character of Lockdown though)
they are making a new one with new set of writers, I hope it will be a true transformerkino.
But Transformers movies have a great soundtrack desu
