god after reading that i think im just going to go crouch in a dark corner for a while shivering from withdrawals while repeating over and over "Suger, Spice, and everything nice"
Tim Curry should thin up a bit and come back in the sequel as the transvestite demon HIM. HIM confused me in a number of ways as a child, mostly it was the lobster claws.
Parallel Streaks: Tim Curry should thin up a bit and come back in the sequel as the transvestite demon HIM. HIM confused me in a number of ways as a child, mostly it was the lobster claws.
Tim Curry is MADE to play HIM. HIM is just a charicture of Tim Curry. Definatly.
PS: Wanna see crazy shit, watch the japanese version of Power Puff Girls
Yes! Welcome to the thread, have a cookie and a slow pan around a hot chick!
Michael Bay is eye porn with explosions. Sure his movies might not be the greatest, but somehow he makes them two and a half hours of awesome. Even Pearl Harbor was pretty insane once they released the director's cut with the dismemberment and exploding guys.

Thanks, dude. Always nice to see proper acknowledgment of Michael Bay's awesomeness.

The more movie-goers we have like this in the world, the more trash and cinematic-failures that Michael Bay and the like are pumping out will be acceptable and *shudder* praised.
Go hire a real action movie like 'Scarface' or 'Pulp Fiction' and educate yourselves. If you want a proper war movie, eBay your copy of Pearl Harbour and grab 'Apocalypse Now', or 'Tigerland'.

Do you actually think you're stating facts as opposed to opinions?
FUCK MICHAEL BAY AND ALL HIS DOUSH BAG FOLLOWERS. suprisingly they used to be human until the the land of normality was sucked into the mystical black hole of doushbagery which is transformers, and him making a powerpuff girls movie would suck transformers the black hole into it's black hole and form a rip in the universe so big that it would suck anything that ever lived into ever lasting doushbagery

Having seen a majority of Bays films close to their release dates (i.e in context), I feel I'm in a very strong position to be judging based on factual and observable evidence.
I'm very open to debate on the topic as I'm confident that Michael Bays directing career alone is enough to solidify my accusation of him being an over-rated director and a manufacturer of carbon-copy, cheesy Hollywood B-grade action flicks, usually with a black comic relief (or the equivalent) in most of his works.
First off, let me just pose a few possibilities in regards to who I'm communicating with- Clearly (judging by your avatar and username) you're a Michael Bay fanboy. I'd also hazard a guess that before Transformers was released, you had very little idea who Michael Bay was. Finally, I conclude that you're relatively young and that boobs and explosions are pretty much all that matter to you in a film, right?
In summary, this just means you'll probably ignore what I have to say as you're devoted behind a thick veil of Bay and probably wont see the light until you've viewed movies outside of the MTV net of guidance.
So tell me, at what point in my post did you think I was being subjective? I stated an opinion, yes but I also backed it up with a list of movies in reasons stead as to why Michael Bays work fell short of the mark. If you name any one of Micheal Bays movies, I will confidently list at least 1 (with explanation) and perhaps more titles that are similar in terms of genre, that did what he tried to do but more aptly and without the cheese.

What I meant was that quality is an entirely subjective matter. Regardless of what "evidence" you may have compiled, the overall quality will be completely open to the interpretation of every individual who observes it. At least where film-making quality is concerned. To me, Michael Bay is awesome. To you, he is overrated. To someone else, he may be on the very border of adequacy. You know what that means? None of us are right. Except to us.
For the record, I have studied (not watched, studied) the films of Kurosawa, Kubrick, Herzog, and the like. Herzog's little known book about his trip as a hobo? Yes, I've got a copy. So any argument that I'm not cultured enough, well, all that does is show that you're a film snob who knows even less than you claim I do. Hate against Michael Bay seems like any other, and calling someone a fanboy is a good way to label yourself a fanboy. Why else would you be so adamantly arguing against the topic? I watch hundreds of films every year, everything from direct to DVD creature features to foreign art house films about people wearing rabbit suits. At the end of the day, I don't always feel like being challenged by a film, or having to think.
Not every meal needs to be fancy. Michael Bay provides the perfect quick snack: they're loud, they're flashy, shit blows up, and you forget it when it's done. You've had a shitty day at work and you're tired. What are you more likely to watch, a Ukranian film about the human cost of war, or something where shit blows up and you can have a few laughs.
The answer being: it depends on the person.
Also holy God the internet is the stupidest fucking invention ever. I make a joke thread about a fake Michael Bay Powerpuff Girls movie and it becomes a debate on Michael Bay and fanboys.

Sorry about helping to necro this thread. I never realized that it could possibly escalate to this. I was just trying to enhance the joke (The attempt failed, but what can you do except roll right along, right?).

Point sustained. Though I could harp on, just looking into the eyes of your avatar reveals more than I'll ever need to know *tips hat*
For the record, I haven't studied shit in terms of films but I do know a good film when I see one and I harbour probably the most eclectic collection of DVD's of anyone I know. I also haven't studied music, yet I write and have been producing it for a decade, in my opinion it's not about what's been studied (though your repertoire does sound impressive). I never said that every film has to be mind-boggling, I merely stated that for any Michael Bay film, there's a more aptly directed and executed familiar, probably achieved on a notably smaller budget as well.
I also apologise if i de-railed your thread, I'll exit stage right hastily, good sir.
p.s in regards to your 'stupidest invention ever' comment - You posted a thread and it started a discussion, was your thread meant to do otherwise?

And here I thought that the Powerpuff Girls were stupid and so was any movie featuring them. Boy, am I wrong! I can't believe Samurai Jack is in it too! That just makes it MORE awesome!

the ending with HIM can mean only one thing: sequel time.
