Transformers is as Bad as We Remember
I actually liked the first Transformers movie, and maybe a little bit of the third, but mostly the franchise has been just as big, loud and indistinguishable as we remember! And in case you forgot, Cinema Sins is here to help us out with their classic tributes to the first three movies! Though fair warning, the second two clips are both 20 minutes long. I guess there are a lot of sins.
Transformers
Revenge of the Fallen
Dark of the Moon
What better way to prepare for Age of Extinction this weekend?

The 6 Most Underrated Movie Transformers
Because money makes the world go round, we have once again arrived at another Transformers movie! This one is entitled ‘Age of Extinction’, the logical follow-up to ‘Revenge of the Fallen’ and ‘Dark of the Moon’. Why the new film isn’t called ‘Age of the Extinction’, I will never know. But all these titles raise the obvious point: how are future generations supposed to figure out the viewing order? Will it even matter by that point? Who cares! Explosions!
“I forgot to mention the Dinobots is all…”
The big draw this time around will be the Dinobots, and I’m personally looking forward to some robot stegosaurus action. Major characters like Optimus Prime and Bumblebee will return, but Shia LeBeouf, who played the part of the human, has been replaced by Mark Wahlberg, playing the part of the new human (the part he was born to play, baby!). So if there’s one thing we’ve learned over the course of the franchise, it’s that the characters are easily replaceable, especially the Transformers themselves. There have been countless bland and indistinguishable Transformers stuffed into each movie – but not all of them are so bad.
In fact, there are more than a few diamonds in the rough. Half a dozen, to be exact. Join me after the jump to meet the unsung heroes and villains of the Transformers movie verse!
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Are Total Bros!
New trailer! More Turtles! Hints of plot! The Shredder! Hot Leonardo action!
I’m not…I’m not sure how I feel about this trailer. This movie is either going to be awesome, and everything is going to work. Or it’s going to fall apart and be this weird, style-obsessed freakshow. The Turtles look cool…but they also look kind of weird. And the humor is…exactly the kind of humor we should probably expect from this movie!
I don’t know, alright! I don’t know!
What do you think?
Some Social Media Twerp Probably Got a Raise for This Ninja Turtles Tweeting Idea
Update: Donatello!
There’s a new trailer for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on the way – possibly today – but in order to see it, we’ve all got to start tweeting about the movie. Specifically, the producers want us to Tweet about each individual turtle, thereby unlocking a series of new posters, ending with the trailer itself. Click the link to see for yourself.
It’s a nifty idea, and I bet some kid the studio hired to be their ‘social media technician’ came up with the idea. Those are real jobs, I’m almost positive.
Mostly I just care about these new posters, which show off the full Turtles! Of course, the best turtle, Leonardo, was unlocked first. Donatello came last, so I’m gonna post him up here on top!
NEEEEEEEEEERD!
And he looks freakin’ awesome – except for the nose. Those noses are definitely weird.
But overall, I like the Turtles’ new looks. They’re different, and different is good. Click the jump to see Michelangelo, Raphael and Leonardo!
Star Wars By Way of Guardians of the Galaxy
Some Internet genius mashed up Star Wars with one of those awesome Guardians of the Galaxy trailers. The result is nothing short of brilliance.
Someone give The Unusual Suspect a medal, because he (or they) have won the Internet for today. That was probably the best trailer mash-up I have ever seen. And it makes me re-appreciate Star Wars like never before!
