I'm starting to really understand the serious Transformer fans more... extreme reactions to the Bay movies, as I'm only casually involved there. This? This is kind of my thing, and... yeah, this seems to be a bunch of Hollywood types trying to cash in on a bunch of nostalgia, except their also cashing in on the cash-in...

Geez, for someone who started with Lost Galaxy, it is strange to find Goldar of all things being my breaking point. Maybe it's because I can't see the connection at all here, other than the obvious "they're both GOLD with wings and a sword!!!!" Like... why are we putting Goldar into the position of major plot point, writers?

I dunno, but I'm not going to go see this movie in theaters. Hell, I question whether I'll even rent it just to see what it ends up being.

So I don't agree with you but i don't disagree with you. I don't want to say that this is just hollywood banking off of nostalgia but without that nostalgia this movie would never have been made. As for how this movie is being handled I want to think that they are doing there best to remove any sentai from it and make it just power rangers. Making Goldar and weapon made of Gold and not a Griffin man seems like a start. Just like makeing rita and ex ranger and introducing the Zeo crystal.

honestly as for the hate like transformers PM and i can talk about that for the 1st 3 films i was heavy in the fandom and back off because of how toxic it got over those movies.

My advice is to make an opinion on everything you see but don't write off the film yet because the execution may be well awesome. remember mythbusters proved you can polish a turd
