TF2 Revenge of the Fallen(thread): Bay doing coke off dead h

[Charlie Don't Surf]

ookers with your $10 bills.

The total will probably grow and I wouldn't scoff at $300 million domestic by the end of next weekend.

I'm never going to see this movie.

Lolwhat, yet another transformers thread?

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

The other one was closed for length. Much worse threads have gotten sequels (and worse movies! look at Transformers 1 :toocool: )

 

[Gusto]

I love you Charlie, so much.

The title I was gonna use for the re-thread was "Transformers 2: Thread 2: Revenge of the Locked".

No seriously.

He's snorting the coke off a dead whore because you killed the whore. With a stick. Which you had used previously to beat a dead horse. Which you had killed, too.

we're still having discussion without being outright mean to people. At least I'm trying to. And there's still the possibility that I become a hypocrite and see the movie out of morbid curiosity and self-loathing. I have a $10 movie gift card that's to a line of theaters I don't particularly like/go to often.

 

You know, I really wish Charlie would stop gushing about how much he loves the movie. The unending positive bias is starting to ruin the snarky bitterness of the forum, to say nothing of his reputation.

I don't care that you made a new thread, honestly. I just think, young Charles, that you're making an awful lot of decisions about a movie you have not even seen.

Sure, you have the first one to go on; that a sequel was made for a movie so stinky does not exactly bode well. But still. You seem like the type who would subject himself to pain and misery for the sake of making a sound decision.

 

[Frank]

He's making the right one.

He is not just basing it off his opinion of the first film. Like myself, he's also taking into account the overwhelmingly negative critical reception, as well as testimonies from friends who saw the movie and hated it.

 

[Calleja]

We get it Charlie, you have a huge hard-on for mBay, we don't need to see the angst that comes with it spewed all over the boards, dude.

 

[Steve]

In other news did you all hear Michael Jackson died?

Shia mentioned they are in the beginning stages of a new Indiana Jones film. Spielberg loves this kid so expect to see lots more of Shia.

Isn't that how Catholicism started?

I have talked to a few close friends that saw the movie, read a lot of very indepth reviews and such. I mean. I kind of feel like seeing it on a small screen wouldn't do it "justice". And I've seen Epic/Date/Disaster Movie. The Happening. I mean. How much worse could this be than that? Oh god. I'm talking myself into it

Anyways, I'm a huge box office nerd and this is a huge movie so I'm honestly interested in how much it drops off, if word of mouth does anything to it next weekend, how much of a bite Public Enemies and Ice Age will take out of it, etc etc. There also is a lot more reception/blogs to be written about it that could be really funny/entertaining and offer different perspectives.

I didn't say that that's where he got his current decision. I was just making the point that it's a possible way of reaching that decision. I just think it's best to make up your own mind rather than taking anyone's word--even the word of people who have similar tastes to you--because you just never know.

Plus, as fun as the last thread was it'd be fun to hear what you both think AFTER being able to form your own opinion based on what you guys saw, not what others saw. Chickens, buck buck buck

 

[Calleja]

YOU HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN THE FUCKING MOVIE!?!?!



FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

HEY, if you wanted us to go see it, you could have donated some bucks to the cause :grrr:

Well you see

Charlie, the movie is pretty bad but you have built it up to be the largest pile of stink since Carrot Top's sex video and when you finally see it it won't live up to your awful expectations and you'll love the movie.

This is assuming that the way Charlie enjoys movies is based purely on what he expects of them and not on their actual merit.

 

[Calleja]

I don't give a shit if you see it or not, dude, but how can you be spewing so much vitriol over something you haven't even experienced? Seriously.


What if you... I don't know... GASP... enjoy it???


I know, not gonna happen, but the possibility exists enough that all the arguments so far you've used against Transformers are as fucking valid as walking up to a friend of a friend you heard somewhere was an asshole and SCREAMING IN HIS FACE YOU HATE THE MOTHERFUCKER AND ASSHOLES LIKE HIM ARE GONNA CAUSE THE DOWNFALL OF SOCIETY!

I dunno, I tried to do the same thing. Go into expecting it be beyond awful so maybe I could glimmer a tiny bit of joy out of it. It didn't work, it was worse than I could have ever imagined.

 

[Jay]

Whatever it is that's eating you, it must be suffering horribly.

 

we're still having discussion without being outright mean to people. At least I'm trying to.

Well, the last thread went so swimmingly, including reports we had to deal with, so I'm just very excited about this one.

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

Whoa, calm down calleja. I don't really have much vitriol? I mean, if I've made a post all cussing up a storm and calling Bay the worst motherfucker in the world and a goat-raping anushound from Planet Shit-on-my-mom's-face, please link it. I'm just trying to spread the wide word of intelligent people that saw the movie and were heavily disappointed and sad they wasted their time/money.

I do feel a little uncomfortable condemning a movie without seeing it at all, but then again, I have not tasted many species of bird shit to confirm that it's not a delicacy either.

Well I didn't mean to start a bunch of personal fights, if any of my posts got reported for good reason, just let me know to tone it down.

Did Charlie make those arguments? I don't remember. I know I didn't, nor did I give them much credence. I mean, people I respect have described the movie as a cultural and aesthetic travesty and said that it promotes cinematic illiteracy, but saying that it's going to cause the downfall of society is a bit much.

 

[Calleja]

True, so you CAN'T say those many species of bird shit (funny, I didn't know poop had species) AREN'T a delicacy, just as you CAN'T say Transformers 2 is a bad movie.

Also, it's called hyperbole... you pair of trolling dolts.

 

[Cajungal]

Come on, Calleja, they're not saying anything inflammatory here. You're the one flipping out. There's no call for that. If you don't want to talk about the movie, then find another thread.

 

[Charlie Don't Surf]

I haven't really been trolling in this thread, I'm sorry you think I'm a dolt

 

[Steven Soderburgin]

Calleja, the point was that he doesn't need to taste bird shit to know it's not something he wants to eat.

 

[Calleja]

I'm not saying anything inflammatory either! I'm just going from the 20 pages of spewing shit against something they haven't seen. Where was *I* inflammatory?

Unless you mean the hypothetical friend of a friend character I created for hyperbole purposes. Then yeah.. sorry, that guy got flamed for no reason. I do apologize to him.

I thought about making a report at one point, but thought better of it and just put the person on ignore. What can i say, I thought it was a better plan
