Just like the newer toylines, just because you name them and color them after the G1 characters, that doesn't excite me when they are completely different alternate modes.

The casting is so bad. None of those guys look like transformers, or any sort of robot for that matter.

Jazz? They left Jazz, the first stereotypical robot in the movie? Oh, GREAT idea. $10 says he sounds JUST like Jar Jar.

I do not understand the hate for this movie. I would understand the hate for this movie if we'd seen a ten minute clip of Starscream skipping around and being voiced by Harvy Firestein, but as it stands now we have a handful of grainy pictures, a cast list, an anouncement teaser (which shows nothing and, per the information we have, has not much to do with the actual movie. It was a quicke trailer thrown together to hype the movie. )and now a list of Transformers that will be in the movie. And based on that evidence, people are already declaring it the worst movie of all time.
1. Bay is a bad director, yes, but not a Uwe Boll kind of bad director. Bay is a director that is all flash and no substance, but his movies are watchable. And it's not like ALL his movies are terrible. 'The Rock' is an awesome action flick. Bad Boys 1 and 2 are generic as all hell, but at least competent movies. Pearl Harbor is pretty inexcusable, and Armageddon is crap, but we're STILL not talking about Uwe Boll levels of shit here. He can make a watchable movie when he has somebody to keep him in line, and that's why Spielberg is producing: To keep him in line.
2. Some of the changes are questionable. The Optimus paint scheme, unless it changes between now and release, does rather suck. The flames on Optimus are jarring, but they're something you'd get used to in ten or so minutes. And I know a lot of people crap themselves in rage over the fact that Bumblebee is a Camaro instead of a Bug (Personally, I like the Camaro), but if these two things have already made you declare that the movie will suck, you weren't ever going to give it a chance anyway.
3. Bay has not shit on the fans to the degree that has been portrayed by the fans. If he had, he would not have cast Peter Cullen as Optimus, and there would not be serious discussion about bringing in Frank Welker as Megatron. Has he made changes? Yes. Are some of them questionable? Yes. Just like there were questionable changes with Spider-Man, X-Men, The Lord of the Rings, and any other movie that has ever been adapted from pre-existing source material. But the notion that everytime something is announced he's punching fans in their guts is an absolute joke. The changes here are no more massive than the sorts of changes other franchises have had. And sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. Fact is, we won't know until the movie comes out.
I'm not going to sit here and tell you this movie will be good. I can't do that, because I haven't seen in. Hell, I REALLY can't do that because it isn't even finished filming yet. There's a very real chance it could blow, but there is no way, with the evidence we have right now, to determine whether ot not it will be as bad as people are already declaring it.

Amen Edit, just watched that trailer man does this look bad... If you're talking about the one with the space exploration on Mars or whatever, none of that will be in the movie. It was just something they put together so something would be out there for the public...and if that was the best they could come with, this movie is damned.

how can they do Jazz without Scat-man Caruthers? They can not. Next question. This f***ing movie looks so dumb. Michael Bay is a bad joke of a director. These Hollywood dumb asses just keep on ripping off great past things and bastardizing them for a quick buck. I got the real Transformers from the 1980's on DVD and I will stick with them.
