As you said, Bumblebee was good. However, with this being part of the mainline of movies instead of a spin-off (which didn't make a lot of money), I don't expect this movie to be much of anything besides another Bay-splosion crap fest.On one hand - Beast Wars is my favorite version of the characters (given it’s what I grew up with) and this announcement has me pumped.
On the other hand - I’m so burnt out on Transformers in general that even Bumblebee (which was objectively a solid film compared to its predecessors) still didn’t get me excited. Michael Bay ruined this franchise and its image in my opinion and it’s going to take a lot to redeem it.
At least Bay isn’t directing this one….but still you’re right, I don’t have a good feeling.As you said, Bumblebee was good.

He's listed as a producer, but that may just be a legal thing at this point.Is Bay involved in any way? That bum needs to leave the transformers alone and let a competent mind handle them.
The Jerry Bruckheimer of the transformers universeHe's listed as a producer, but that may just be a legal thing at this point.
I will say, getting the Creed 2 director is actually kind of brilliant for this storyline. Now they just need to not over-do-it with SFX and focus on story, but i'm sure they know that already, given it's been a chief complaint about the franchise for years.
After.....like 15 years we finally got a solid Transformers film (Bumblebee was great but also like a one off character movie vs the Transformers team)
I'm excited to see it this weekend and enjoy a fun popcorn film without random sex jokes and military propaganda
Great to hearIt was easily my favorite Transformers movie. The humans aren't nearly as annoying as the previous films. I really hope they make enough money this go around to make the next iteration of this series.
There's an Optimus movie coming out next November I believe. I don't think the box office will be there like it used to though. Paramount let Bay run this franchise into the ground.It was easily my favorite Transformers movie. The humans aren't nearly as annoying as the previous films.

Even though Bumblebee was great and this may be too, the brand has been tarnished.
I liked the film but also....I don't think these films should be about one characterBumblebee is better than it has any right to be, but yeah, audiences I think are pretty done with this franchise. It costs so much to gamble on. If this brings in enough money, the sequel they're alluding to will bring people back to see these.
