I've stayed away from the "big" Transformers boards on purpose, because I suspect some of the fans will be trashing the movie. I've been looking at a few other places.
On IMDb, the Internet Movie Database, most viewers seem to love the movie. At this time there are 15,317 votes for it, and they gave it an 8.3 out of 10, which puts it in the top 250 movies of all time at position 203. I suspect it will climb even higher after more people see it this weekend.
On the Axalon Underground, a board I respect, the users like it. Some of the people here can be harsh with their movie reviews, but if they are, they have good reasons for it.
On the TrekBBS there are some fairly negative fans when it comes to Star Trek, but there is also a good number of Transfans, including Benson Yee under the name God Magnus. Those guys loved the movie.
Ben Yee's movie review is here. Short synopsis - "You are in for an incredible treat."
That's how I feel - the movie was excellent. So is anyone else keeping track of opinions about this movie? Has anyone been watching the larger fan boards to see what they are saying? Are there some places we can go where more positive opinions need to be posted? How is the movie doing financially?
I know in my heart that man is good.
That what is right will always eventually triumph.
And there's purpose and worth to each and every life.
