No wonder the car companies keep going bankrupt

Because car companies aren’t manufacturing dinosaurs, I guess.

Why the heck DIDN’T they put Grimlock in the new movies?

This entire franchise exists to appeal to our inner five-year-olds and when I was a kid there was nothing more awesome than a robot that turns into a robot dinosaur.

[Insert obligatory joke about young Mike Bay and fireworks]

Well, this (and the comics) make me want to run out and buy the Twins. Thank you for this, MGK. Rock on.

Mudflap said: “It’s not even an Italian car, for Christ’s sake.”

Mac said: “Audi isn’t Italian.”

Mac, any comment on whether or not Jeff Goldblum was actually killed by a dinosaur?

Yes. Win. All of those positive tired internet memes.

If nobody else is going to show their nerd colours, I’d better.

Dude, that Grimlock images you used is from The War Within where he turned into some tank thingy, /not/ a T-Rex.

Y’know, I thought the two of them were a riff on the “Dumb Hick” stereotype.

That’s what I said in the last thread. I thought they had much more similarity to Mater from Cars (minus everything good, of course) than any Black stereotype.

Well, I did see it… and it looked like a 2-part G1 episode saturated with about an hour and a half of stupid jokes, plot contrivances, and other nitwitisms.

I think, after meditating on the matter, that’s what happened. There IS the seed of a good movie there somewhere. Unfortunately, it’s buried under an absolute tide of “Michael Bay trying to be funny” stupid shit.

I’d rather see that than Bay’s shittacular “masterpiece”.

Can anyone doorstop Simon Furman and ask what he thinks about M. Mudflap et M. Skids?

CB: I didn’t actually see the second movie, but had a friend who saw it last week explain what the worst parts were. You’d have to pay me an insane amount of money to see that piece of shit.

ps238principal: I would gladly pay to see an adaptaion of “Carwash of Doom” and that’s no were near how good the comic could be. It’s not even the strangest story the comics ever came up with either.
