i don't think everyone needs to like every film but the way people refuse to even take the transformers series seriously in any capacity feels so performative in a way no other series has ever been treated, very odd to me

anyone trying to talk to me about how much better real transformers is than the michael bay movies (which i haven't seen) sounds like this to me. I'm happy you have your thing but we live in very different worlds

watch the michael bay movies they're brilliant they're tainted with hyperconservativisim in the same way mold is used when making blue cheese. going into it knowing "this is gonna be propaganda" makes it infinitely more enjoyable

I'm sorry that sounds like a terrible use of my time on this earth

the Bayformers films have historically held no appeal for me but as someone who was an american 6-year-old in the early '90s i have to admit to a morbid curiosity for the next one for no better reason than they're doing goddamn Unicron this time like, for reals, front and center

they never made a Unicron toy so i tried to make my own out of construction paper i was ambitious as fuck; it was gonna *transform* (and for the record, i'd had success with homemade papercraft Voltrons and Enterprise-Ds) never did pull it off though i did make an arm or two
