Bad Boys / Armageddon / The Rock / The Island were better than decent and his remakes of the old horrors, Texas Chainsaw / Amittyville turned out to be some of the better reboots going around.
The sentiment above is why I never, ever listen to what any of
you mongs have to say about movies.

Most of
you have horrible, horrible judgement...proven over and over again by your high ratings and accolades lovingly offered towards shitty, shitty movies that a half-way intelligent poodle wouldn't bother to take a dump on. I mean, several of
you have fully admitted on multiple occasions to not caring if a
movie even has a coherent story...if it's splosiony enough. And those same idiots are openly hostile to those who want more then bigdumb dreck. I've no doubt I've pissed off some already who want to call me some sort of snob for saying this now and previously about it...because they like bigdumb movies and don't want to acknowledge, let alone even think about those who do not.
Who's hostile ?.
You should probably find a new thread n all cos from
the sounds of things,
you're just listening to yourself :P
And maybe my judgement is fantastic and have an appreciation for
the simpler things,
you just have limited scope my friend. Some of
the best action flicks ever survived with a limited story, Die Hard, Alien, Running Man, Rambo etc... fast forward 20 years and we have
the exact opposite problem, flicks falling over an over complicated story, 2012, Looper, Inception, Prometheus etc. But that's a matter of opinion.
If
you think a story is
the be all and end all of a
movie then I think
the fault is with yourself n all because there are very, very few movies that
you could consider unique in terms of story. Plenty of times
you said X
movie is cookie cutter but this
movie is spectacular but here's
the thing, all movies are cookie cutter.
Oh yea and Michael Bay, I'm guessing
you didn't like any of his movies ?. My point is that he gets how an action
movie is supposed to work instead of over saturating it with violence like Expendables or over complicating
the plot.
