Well, duh!
OK, ok, I'll elaborate a little better. If you attention to the subtext, you'll see I was implying that is a movie based on a saturday morning cartoon (it was on sunday on my parts of da world, actually, but let's not be so obsessive-complusive about this), and we shouldn't expect much about it, if we hope to enjoy ourselves seing it.
And, the question i made in my previous post had its answer also somewhat implied: A movie directed Michael Bay will be what? Anyone? A blockbuster flick filled with every possible cliché and 2-dimensional character. Expect for it.
And, besides, the cartoon was not, in its concept, that much of a thing: it was in the end a 22 minute long Hazbro commercial. I'm not even sure I know why exaclty I connected so strongly with it, back then (as opposed to any other saturday/sunday morning cartoon).
There were some details about it that made it great. To me, it was that the character were so varied, both in personality and design (on both sides). There were some strong leads: Megatron and Optimus. And there were some strong supportive roles: Grimlock, Soundwave, Starscream. Those details, for me, made the difference.
But, in the end, all I want at this point, is the goddamn FBG on Megatron's arm. Is that so much to ask?
And, also, F-boy, whatever happened to you inner child? Can't you remember how it felt to be excited over the next episode of your favorite cartoon? Sarcasm, sarcasm, sarcasm... it's all I get from you. |
