ohh dont even get me started on bashing Michael Bay on Transformers trilogy..
I'm a fan of anime series and movies are a big let down by following differnet storyline and involving more humans than bots!

BTW Luffy, remember that sheild that sword :p
mahn i always have goosebumps when optimus and jetfire powerlink in anime, F'in A

lol @ movie defending guy :D

I'm not defending the movie for being ****.

I'm only pointing out that the faults aren't really faults. His reasoning for hating the movie is nonsensical. Your so-called anime trilogy is actually a hasbro-takara collaboration, in which Cybertron is not even a sequel to the first two in Japan. Also, it is that so called anime trilogy that deviates from the established concepts in the previous transformers shows. (which were all american productions except the ones never released outside Japan).

The only real anime transformers were never released outside japan. They're all mentioned in the picture posted above (Headmasters being the first of them). Transformers is an American franchise through and through.

I will definitely say that the movies are not as good as your so called anime, but they are following principles from the entire metafranchise, not just one rather small subset of shows.

Just watched Pacific Rim... Just one battle and the sfx were great... first half was too slow and kinda boring 6/10

Raincoat (2004)

i dont know how many people have watched this one but its a good movie, its how the real life romance is,

if you like shitty romantic movies from $hahrukh Khan, it may not appeal you

Yep, still remember the Starsaber Sword, Skyboom Shield and Requiem Blaster. Combine these and you get the Hydra Cannon.

3. The minicons were there. Those tiny robots you've forgotten about were minicons. Your point #6 even mentions them :lol:

those names I mentioned were not human sized. They were Decepticons. NOT MINICONS.

Besides, its a Transformers movie and not some Salman Khan/Ajay Devgn over action cr@p , you need to mention about the weapons and attacks. Hollywood has already damaged the reputation of some really good Anime/Marvel/DC characters like Goku (DB Evolution), SM (SM Returns), Hulk, Thor (made them look much weaker then they should've been), etc.

I watched this one. Even though it was slow it has it's own merits. If it was released in today's time it would have got enough recognition.

here is a list of good movies i recommend, picked up from imdb :
IMDb: MY ULTIMATE BEST MOVIES: 2000-2013 - a list by Dr-Faustus

Democracy is a myth
Commando (2013) - IMDb 6/10

Good fight choreography, bad story, bad acting, Pooja Chopra is just annoying, very good cinematography. I just loved all the jungle scenes.
Check it out only for action scenes (and nothing else)

Minicons are not another faction...they're another transforming race aligned with either the autobots or the decepticons, depending on whom they form their mental bonds with.

Mini-Con - Transformers Wiki All the minicons from the live action movies are mentioned here.

So those small robots from the movie are first minicon decepticons. And then they align themselves to the autobots in movie #3.

Besides, its a Transformers movie and not some Salman Khan/Ajay Devgn over action cr@p , you need to mention about the weapons and attacks. Hollywood has already damaged the reputation of some really good Anime/Marvel/DC characters like Goku (DB Evolution), SM (SM Returns), Hulk, Thor (made them look much weaker then they should've been), etc.

So you want a live action movie that behaves like power rangers? :lol:

This isn't a cartoon, where exaggerated expressions are an integral part of the effect.

And like I said, you're attacking the movies with really absurd claims that they do not follow your so-called anime. It is an american IP owned by hasbro and TakaraTomy since inception and almost all TV shows are completely american funded.

Your so called anime is the one that actually deviates from the history. In fact, even minicons were first introduced in the Unicron trilogy. They were added to generation 1 and beast wars through comics much later. So you can see that Michael Bay *did* actually take your so called anime into consideration.

Luffy, you should really watch generation 1 and the real anime extension of generation 1, followed by generation 3 (beast wars era). Generation 2 is actually a generation 1 rerun with edits. You will realize that your argument about not following the originals is baseless.

Take a look at the timeline I had posted previously.
