Transformers: Age of Extinction Super Bowl TV Spot

The masturbatory reaction to the Transformers: Age of Extinction Super Bowl spot reiterates what some of us, including our pal Jack Giroux, know. Our community has the shittiest memory.

The reactions to the Super Bowl ads for Revenge of the Fallen and Dark of the Moon were glowing with proclamations that "Michael Bay finally got it right." Then the respective films opened and everyone conveniently forgot how they reduced themselves to blubbing idiots due to 30 seconds of sizzle-reel footage and bashed Bay.

Oh but Optimus Prime is riding a Dinobot. It must be good this time, right?

In this day and age, the audience is told whether to like or hate a film after the fact and evidently before as well. Good old modern internet journalism/blogging.

For all the rants about how we've ruined the film going experience for ourselves with our constant need to know every tidbit of film going into a film, this age is also vastly different from the 90's in that the group think about certain films is put into the aether forthright. I miss my childhood. I can only imagine what my ID4 experience would have been had I succumb to all this rabble.

Taking my nephew to see this, hopefully his childhood movie experience can be as pure as mine was. Looks like a good summer film.
