Wait are people talking about the Transformers movies as being anything other than hokey campy overstuffed garbage?
Please. You may like them because they're terrible but don't try to fool yourself into thinking that you like them because they're any good.
I, unlike you, enjoy them because it is awesome seeing Optimus Prime, Bumble Bee, Hot Rod(Rodimus), Megatron, Starscream and the Dinobots fight each other over whatever issues they come up with. I also enjoy them because I enjoyed the Transformers cartoons growing up.
You like certain movies I'm sure I would find complete garbage for your own reasons....do not tell us how or why we like/dislike movies.

I could put aside the horrible story and just go for the cool robots fighting aspect, but the cgi is just terrible. Practical effects would go a long way to making the movies at least popcorn flick watchable.

War for the Planet of the Apes has me a bit worried. The last two were so good. Two of the most rewatchable movies in the last decade in my opinion. The last one was good because you felt for both the humans and the apes. You understood why each did what the did. This one makes the humans look like the bad guys and the dialogue isn't great.
The music in that trailer didn't seem very good either, and Haymitch's delivery just sounded so dumb. I'm hoping that the trailer is just a poor remix since I agree, the first two remakes are just outstanding movies.

Spider-Man is my favorite hero so I hope this one turns out well. Vulture looks bad ass. I think I saw Shocker in there too. I wasn't even aware he'd be in it but it certainly looks like him. Not a big fan of how prominent a role Tony Stark seems to have but I understand.
I am thinking the majority of Tony Stark in this movie will be shown in the trailers to draw interest. They are trying to separate themselves from the previous films and the focus on high school life is one way to do that, but so is combining Spidey with characters they never previously had access to. The shot of him at the end swinging around town with IronMan is a sample of that.
Amazing Spider-Man 2 is proof that people are super hero fatigued and even a huge name like Spider-Man isn't enough to put buts in theater seats. They need to deliver on this movie, pressure is on! I have faith though, anything Feige touches turns to gold.

Thats because Spiderman, as a film franchise in general, has been kicking fans swiftly in the balls since 2002.
So yeah, pressure is on. The 6th one is the charm right?
