So, this shit has been out for 3 weeks in all of its major territories and is only at $500 million, might end up at $600 million or so by the end of its run.
What went right?
Also, it dropped by a lot in China.

The plot literally never changes and the main villain always returns.
Is that good or bad? Don't know how many $$ make the others tranformers films
>>84960846
It's absolutely terrible compared to its predecessors:
Transformers 1 made $700 million
The second one made $836 million
3rd made $1.123 billion
4th made $1.104 billion

Yep. It's time for either a long break or a hard reboot. Completely abandon Bay's sensibilities and go for something more true to the most popular version of the source material. Since Paramount is in such terrible shape financially at the moment, taking a break probably isn't really an option.

A hard reboot hopefully. So we can finally bury baysformers forever.
Honestly speaking there was no point to this movie
>little beaner girl somehow survives on her own with robots that don't eat food and can't find her food without alerting people trying to capture them...somehow she's super healthy
>dead beat dad storyline goes nowhere and we somehow are suppose to root for him being a shitty dad
>random ass bitchy teacher that leaves her school out of nowhere and her story goes nowhere
>le funny nigger robot
>Megatron somehow still underpowered that he can't even kill one damn human
>Optimus going evil lasts like 5 seconds before he's back to being good again
>Optimus so overpowered he can kill everyone himself with no help
>no other transformer on both sides gets time at the end of the movie besides Optimus
Just a cashgrab that was shitty and if you wanted fights there was almost none anyways

Not surprising they kept getting made. Until now each installment was making equal to or more money than the last. It was like the films were immune to criticism. We would have seen more Battleship and Ghostbusters (2016) had they printed money like that.

I really liked the film, went to see it at the cinema.
Granted I probably enjoyed it more considering I went and saw it for free...
It was a hell of a lot funnier than the others.
Cogman was fucking cool.

It's been too long since Age of Extinction came out. The Chinamen lost interest already.

>Cyberton centric prequel story
>NO FUCKING HUMANS
>make it about the origins of the transformers who would become Megatron and Optimus
>Optimus as the dutiful scholar who becomes a warrior
>Megatron as the Gladiator who desires to rise above his station
>show that they were good friends and the war forces them to be enemies
>NO FUCKING HUMANS
do this and Transformers will be able to regain its former glory. Shit if they pace it right they can even milk a trilogy out of this

Maybe they should just make a Transformers movie with Optimus on screen for more than 10 minutes
better than MCU
