Here's the chance to throw the Netflix side some love: Daredevil and Kingpin!

I'm nitpicking the inaccuracies in the writing on this site, something I thought we all enjoyed.

There is a explanation. An explanation so huge, it is literally impossible for there to never have been a time on Earth without Transformers.

Why did you watch the 5th film in a series without at least seeing the 4th?

When going over the list of great historical people who knew about Transformers, they show the crazy-haired eBay profile head shot of Sam from the first movie.

What the review calls blatant product placement was a 2-second scene of Wheelie ogling a car website. It was a quick joke and I don't see how it could possibly be seen as blatant, especially to anyone not in China.

It had the girl be competent, but still a kid, and the woman be sexy, but in the usual male destiny role… so, no, there wasn't anything overt, it just had women not being helpless (so yes, MRA's would probably be mad).

American forces are mostly villains and fairly inept in this movie.

No, he's not. He's a junkyard mechanic that didn't go to college.

Why do you insist that the movie thinks Cade is a scientist when it explicitly informs us that he's a self-taught garbage mechanic/inventor? There's a lot to criticize, stop making stuff up.
Also, my 7 year old can easily recognize and name all the different robots, although this latest round are indeed becoming less

It's an established universe with a certain tone and history; it doesn't make sense to stray from that into heavy improv, meta deconstruction, or something else they may have wanted to try. Star Wars is myth, it's not supposed to be fresh.

I look forward to seeing how they make a very giant ape fight on the same level as an indestructible, regenerating monster with atomic breath. It would like having Batman fight Superman, only without any gadgets.

It came from the pitch meeting.
Exec 1: "We can make our own steaming platform, see?"
Exec 2: "…So?"
*CEO shrugs, flips the on switch*

They should at least start with his banishment from Alphabetrium.

Why the misleading headline? This isn't part of the Bad universe; these were dads trying to one-up each other. Get your facts straight!

… Get off my lawn.

That's what fans of the show called it. There was a debate over being called Standers or Standees so they settled on Stans.
Either that or some nonsense slang.

I thought maybe the Seige Perilous before I realized that's not really an Avengers thing.

They're all trying to crack the code to be the next coffee, which was 50 cents at a diner and free in waiting rooms until suddenly fancy versions were making billions.

You must be a cool frood.
