Ugh. Worse than. If it's the worst, it can't be 'worst then'. I rarely speak up about grammatical errors anymore, but frankly, that was horrible.

It's really fun at first, but the bosses are all the same IMO. get in to their base, kill a bazillion AI's, get to boss, kill him/her, level done. Was really easy once you get all stealthy etc.

Physics, fun running around, climbing on everything were all really cool, but I didn't like the fact that you couldn't get the cops after you or do any real screwing around like in GTA.

I find it funny how the second one is already being made/greenlit. You can tell by the previews that this movie is going to be awful. Transformers looked good, and was a decent movie. Get off the Transformers "awful" train and open your eyes. If you really want a piece of crap, look at GI Joe, or Terminator Salvation.

Granted he wears a mask, but the kid doesn't have the chops.

The movie "Brick" says hello!

I urge nobody to go see this movie, so that maybe we'll get a decent movie out of a dated franchise going forward.

My favourite is the one immediately after! Although the one where the Na###o rolls that guy up in the blanket is not without its charm as well

If I recall correctly he was the oldest...

And you're not alone Jason14h (but your grammar is poor).

And sadly it's going to open big to millions of dollars of business, even if it ends up never making its money back or flopping. Movie audiences have ADHD, and they'll go see anything for their next fix.

I really don't see this doing all that well. I can see maybe a half decent first weekend because of all the fanboys, but that's about it. I have a hard time talking to someone at work who thought the trailer made them wanna see it. I just think this movie looks so bad, it's gonna keep people out of the theatres. There is zero chance that it gets Transformers money. No chance.

I say no more than a 45-50 million opening weekend.

Oh I agree, it's not going to break records or anything. But still - $50M? That's a lot of people spending a lot of money on something that is quite self-evidently a pile of ****.

That's a very funny statement coming from a guy that actually liked Transformers 2

So Watchmen without the strength of some positive reviews?

What's with movie studios ruining these movies? Have they not learned anything? I hope hollywood never make another movie based on my childhood again.

I hear they're considering making thunder cats. I really hope not.
