I just watched (read: skipped through to the robot fights) Transformers: Rise of the Beasts and the very last scene of that movie introduces a crossover with TF/G.I. Joe, and tbh I could not be less excited about it.
I was kind of excited for that Transformers because I watched a lot of Beast Wars as a kid. But all the previews looked pretty meh, then I found out my favorite characters wouldn’t be in it, so I said fuck it. Still have not watched it.
Yeah the novelty of these movies has worn off about 15 years ago at least.
If you want me to be engaged with the movie for the full runtime (and not skip around to the big fights) then it needs to be a movie entirely about and with Transformers. I don’t give a shit about any “human story” they want to tell. I don’t care about the people in these movies and I literally never have, not beyond an “oh shit those giant robots are incredibly dangerous to even be around because they’re so huge” kind of thing.
I thought the opening of Bumblebee was awesome. We got to see a live-action Cybertron and a battle between bots. Then the rest of the movie happened.
Imo, someone should adapt the War and Fall of Cybertron games for movies. It’s literally what the people want; not more squishy humans trying to navigate a giant robot fight between their legs and feet trying not to get stepped on.
I wasn’t even that against the human aspect, I just wanted more characters from Beast Wars. I very much would have liked to have seen Blackarachnia because she was my favorite.

You must be very brave. You’re the only person I know who made it all the way through that movie.
I didn’t even do that lol.
