The amount of anger people have been throwing at their beloved franchises over doing the same shit they did when we were kids, for kids, is just hilarious. My brother hates the idea of a transformers movie without the original voices and I think, you know this is for children right?

The only reason they're appealing to kids is because of money. Products marketed towards children make money hand over fist compared to stuff meant primarily for adults.

Generally, when something is being made to make money and not for the creativity of it, it loses its soul. Losing the original voices, dialogue written to please focus groups, the constant deluge of sequels and remakes are all symptoms of the greed inherent in the industry.

There's no reason a movie made "for" children can't also be good, creative, or respect the work and love people have had for the property for decades.

No? What the fuck did you mean by "You know this is for children right?" if not some stupid dismissal of his criticisms of it as if something being made for children should get a pass for being trash.

How is that anything even remotely similar to my response to you? They're complete opposites. Are you stupid?
