Why you have no reason to watch Transformers 4

From the Toronto Sun article here: http://www.torontosun.com/2014/03/27/ma ... -cut-above

Forced Chinese presence due to financing

In support roles, there is a rogues gallery of Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, T. J. Miller, Titus Welliver and Chinese singer and actress Li Bingbing. The casting of Li as “the CEO of the Chinese Transformers” reflects the movie’s mega-funding: Age of Extinction is a co-production of the U.S. and China.

The main people behind the movies didn't change at all

Meanwhile, Michael Bay stayed in the director’s chair and Ehren Kruger remained as the screenwriter who re-invents the lives of these Hasbro toys for the big screen. So there will be more of the same for Transformers fans, just with different human characters.

They never watched Pacific Rim to learn the most important lesson: the robots are what people care about, not the humans....especially the kids of the main characters

The plot of Age of Extinction revolves around Wahlberg’s character, who is a mechanic and inventor in Texas. When he salvages a battered truck that turns out to be a Transformer, “all hell breaks loose,” Wahlberg says of the plot.

His daughter is caught in the line of fire. “And there is a lot more to go,” Wahlberg says. “It was actually important to establish the new characters, the new people in the movie, just give them that taste.”

I have an even simpler reason not to watch Transformers 4.

I only watched the first one, and somehow saw the second one on TV, those films aren't for people who actually like Transformers, they're for people who like loud movies with explosions and special effects. They bring in like like 1 billion and people keep going to see them, so meh.
