    The first two Bay movies hold a special place in my heart. They may not be good, but they’re enjoyable and cool as fuck

      The opening of the first one is actually really good. Just a shame about what came after.

      Wasn’t 2 completely fucked by the writers strike?

        First just felt the most realistic to me (probably because it had a lot of military scenes and was probably a Pentagon propaganda) and a lot of the interactions between the humans just made sense to me.

        2 wasn’t that bad imo because I only watched it for cool robot fights and a lot of the scenes were still memorable. Next ones get progressive worse, literally the only thing I remember is that they had Sentinel Prime, robot dinos, and robot knights. Felt like cash grabs

      Really the only thing I remember about the first one is that after the movie was done, I realized I was on the edge of my seat basically all movie. It might be dumb, but it succeeds as an action movie.
