This is true. Though, I'm not always looking for Citizen Kane in my entertainment. I can find just as much entertainment in watching something juvenile and simple as i can watching a serious, moving picture.
^This. This isn't Citizen Kane. It's an entertaining popcorn movie. Maybe it's cuz I'm a fan of the franchise anyways, but the first one was everything I wanted from a live action TF movie, and this one apparently goes even deeper into the mythos, so that's a win win for me. And shit, Devastator! He's freakin huge!
QFT. Taking the stuff I loved as a kid and adapting it into something more that I will appreciate as an adult is what gets me excited. Taking the stuff I loved as a kid and repackaging it as nothing but 'eye candy' and base silliness... well, I'm not 13 any longer and I want more than that. The options are not just Bay's…
