Currently Browsing: "Michael Bay"

Does it matter that Transformers 2 is probably this summer’s worst movie? Sadly, no. It’s little more than crassly commercialized cinematic excess, but still some viewers and reviewers have latched blindly on to Bay’s teats as if they expect awesome-flavored milk to start splashing against their tongue. And yes, I am talking about all of FSR’s head honchos…

Kevin Carr reviews this week’s new movies: Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and My Sister’s Keeper.

On This Week’s Show: Neil hoses down the Magical Studio in the Sky with bodily fluids and testosterone after watching Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen not once, but twice. Kevin tries to keep a level head while suffering through a review of My Sister’s Keeper. There’s a minor Fat Guy smackdown as Neil tries to justify his stalker-ish excitement for all things Michael Bay, but eventually he agrees with Kevin with his Jurassic Park analogy. Then they serve up a Fat Guy Five about movies that assault the senses. Awesome!

That is a bold assertion, but you know what they say about assertions – shut up and watch things go BOOM. Now with video!

I refuse to make this article about Transformers. I refuse to talk about how awful of an actor Megan Fox is, who cannot even effectively scream “Saaaaaaam!” I refuse to espouse on the ridiculous plot. I refuse to complain about seeing John Turturro’s hairy buttcheeks in my face, 20 feet high.

Transformers 2 is at 21% on Rotten Tomatoes. Rotten Tomatoes is at 0% on Michael Bay’s give-a-shit meter. Based on the box office numbers, It would also appear that Rotten Tomatoes is at 0% on America’s give-a-shit meter as well.

Judging by their output for Star Trek, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and The Proposal all in one summer, it seems like screenwriters Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman don’t sleep. And they won’t get to anytime soon. We caught them not napping in order to ask them about writing for Michael Bay and their upcoming Cowboys and Aliens.

A small little art house film known as Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen opened up last night at midnight, and wow did it bring in some overnight green.

More than meets the eye himself, Robert Fure is Optimus Primed to tell you that Transformers 2 is the perfect summer movie.

And just like that, here comes your daily Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen update. This one should be rather easy, seeing as my main concern is hitting you with a bunch of new photos from the film, which hits theaters in less than a week.

Michael Bay’s website has unleashed robots — giant f*cking robots. As well, it has also launched 3 new TV spots and some fun facts from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

More Shia LaBeouf talking about how this isn’t his war, more Megan Fox yelling “Sam!” and looking rather attractive and more Optimus Prime telling us that there’s a lot that has been kept from us. It must be Wednesday, it must be Transformers 2.

The early review are coming in, and so far the word on Michael Bay’s Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is good — even if the film goes on too long.

Paramount and MySpace have released the full-length music video for Linkin Park’s “New Divide,” which will be featured on the soundtrack for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is coming. Seriously, it will be here in mere weeks and the excitement is off the charts here in my chair.

That’s right haters! Watch yourself! Michael Bay is going to deliver not one, not two, but 42 giant robots. Plus, if you see it in IMAX, you’ll get to see Optimus Prime at his natural size.

Universal launches its opening toy-made film salvo with Stretch Armstrong arriving in early 2011. Should the public respond by throwing their money back?

It has become clear in the three times that I’ve watched this brand new clip from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen that even though it is quite cool, it still wouldn’t have been worth watching the MTV Movie Awards to see it.

The folks at MTV have released a brand new photo from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen that finally gives us a clear look at the film’s main villain, The Fallen.

This week’s installment of Movies We Love is brought to you by Neil Miller’s love for Michael Bay, the number 9, and the word “badass.”
