TRANSFORMERS BayGirl To Become Possessed Murdering Megababe Cheerleader?? Let The Fetishism Begin!!
Merrick here...
Megan Fox has joined JENNIFER'S BODY.
The script is by Diablo Cody, who wrote JUNO, which comes out in December. We've been hearing pretty good things about JUNO; you can check out its trailer HERE.
As far as JENNIFER'S BODY goes...
The story, described as similar in tone to "Heathers" and "Beetlejuice," follows a cheerleader with a perfect life who becomes the girl from hell when she gets possessed and begins killing boys in a small town. Her best friend must then find a way to stop her.
...says THIS STORY IN HOLLYWOOD REPORTER.
Actually, it's not entirely clear from the story whether Fox will play the supernatural psycho, or the friend who has to stop her (my bet's on the psycho). Either way, seeing Ms. Fox on screen will be most... agreeable.
She sat on Bumblebee. Lucky damn robot. No wonder he couldn't talk. And, no wonder he chose to stay with Shia.
By the way: AICN, and phrases like "Damn you, Michael Bay!", are mentioned prominently in the "making of" materials on the TRANSFORMERS DVD that came out last week.

I mean, for Hollywood girls anyway. I don't get why she's so popular. I really didn't buy her as a high schooler either. She looks about 30. Actually, I AM 30 and I look younger than she does...
-
... Uhm... I mean, this looks like an interesting story.
-
... Uhm... I mean, fuck you Michael Bay!
-
I'd still take fifth or sixth if it was her though grooowlll.
-
Still though, she's banging "David Fucking Silver".... She can't be that smart.....
-
the ole Angry Pirate...Yarr!
-
..was that Deadly Friend..?
-
I'd like to tie her up...doahiohiuuohhhhchopherupstuffherinasuitcasethrowherinaswamp...hot
-
Damn You Michae! Bay!
-
Cheerleader killing boys, not so much.
-
one look at her and you can map her past and future career and personal life out
-
Good going Michael Bay
-
And the fanboy love for Winona at that time was off the charts. Megan Fox inspires masturbators, sure, but can she open a picture? Doubt it.
-
. . . but there is nothing in the description of this flick that sounds like Beetlejuice. Unless Jennifer is forced to dance the Calypso I guess.
-
Wow! Still won't get any of you any closer to Megan fox, or anybody like her. Or me, either, for that matter....Damn you, AICN! And Michael Bay! And George Lucas raped my cat. That's all I'm saying.
-
When you think of Michael Bay, his films, or the hot starlets he banged behind their boyfriend from BEVERLY HILLS 90210's back. Just keep this factoid in mind. Michael Bay has a 13 inch penis. Explains everything, doesn't it?
-
That was the name of a Hole song off the 1994 album "Live Through This" - any connection? Besides Courtney Love and Megan Fox being unbelievably skanky?
-
Ass to mouth then to the tits and back to the ass.
Always practice safe sex, guys. -
Nice comments fella's, no wonder the Hostel movies are so popular on this site.
-
Ah, Hollywood sure knows how to update a concept. Life must be tough for Mr. Diablo Cody as it'll be hard to ever write anything that lives up to his awesome name...
-
Def worth ass to mouth + proballiy bald as the day she she was born OH!
-
I can't NOT think of sex when I see her!
-
I didn´t see Transvestites, but the girl is hot.
-
is probably what Megan Fox has been doing since she was 16. The rusty trombone and watersports is where she's at now.
-
I agree, but that's probably cuz everything we've seen her in, including Transformers, calls for her to dress like a whore and act as if she's got the intellectual capacity of one. I mean, just look at that photo above. The only thought that enters my brain when I see that is, "Please, my darling, open those legs."
-
but can the broad act? Not that portraying a psycho cheerleader requires London Stage worthy chops; but really Megan, are you an actress, or just yet another set of Dow Cornings finest with a pretty face attached?
Still...as a guy...there is an evil part of me that secretly hopes Megan will make that hard left turn into Porn. -
That loser has defiled too many attractive women... He's Gen Y's answer to Scott Baio... Only sadder...
-
did anyone see michael bay reference the "damn you michael bay" guy in the dvd extras? good stuff.
-
Excuse me for a minute.
-
but i had a dream i went to see 'cloverfield' and there were 3 monsters in it. one was eddie murphy blown up to about the size of king kong, another was a floating eye, and the other was some kind of godzilla type of beast much larger than the rest. eddie murphy chucked the statue of liberty's head.
-
I damn you for that Michael Bay!!!!
-
In simpler words he discussed all the bashing that he received on here. Death threats and all.
-
And that photo is God's work.
-
the cubes
-
and said I'm supposed to have intercourse with her.
-
that is all.
-
It doesn't matter what her religious beliefs are, if any. What matters is that God has decreed that, in his glorious name, I really ought to make love to that girl as soon as possible.
-
Obviously you haven't seen to many 21st century highschool girls...THEY DO LOOK LIKE WHORES!
But I will say I agree that being called a Baygirl can't be good for ones career -

I hope Megan Fox keeps her personal trainer
by stereotypical evil archer
Otherwise its just regular sexy fare
-
One of the greatest American dark comedies ever. Can this really be that entertaining?
-
Looking at that picture.
-
Beetlejuice only came out nineteen years ago!!!
-
It Must not be "God" talking to me...cuz the voice in my pants is saying nothing about "making love" to Megan Fox.
Unless of course "Gods" idea of "making love" involves 3/8" cotton rope, some heavy duty electrical tape, a rented panel van, and quart sized container of Doctor fisties incredible edible backdoor lube.
Ahh that Megan...brings out the best in us all doesn't she? -
you are so right. the guy comes off as such a pompous ass. i had never really seen much footage of him before i watched the extra footage on transformers.
he can make some pretty cool 'splosions though. -
...a strange sensation, and sound....
WAH-KOO-KLAK!! -
"High school whore! Step out of that dress now...or we will Kee-yall you."

People who like Transformers still HATE Bay's "improvements"
by irc-hollywood
there has been no revision by fan's, i think 90% of them would still want another director on a sequel.
-
When I was in highschool girls dressed like cheap whores.
-
for the aicn talkbacker's version of tramsformers to come out. I swear if I had a billion I would waste it just to see how the movie would come out.
-
If the WB are looking to cast a younger actress as Wonder Woman, you've got to figure that Megan Fox is (an option) being considered.
-
What magazine? Is there more?
-
How can you even dream about a girl that not only fucked Brian Austen Green but has his name tattooed above her pussy. GGlrrrblllarrrghhh!
-
Don't mess up our visual
-
someone should teach her to breathe through her nose.
-
With everyone that makes transformers out to being this god awful film is that while it may not be the citizen kane of the sci-fi genre is the fact that it certaintly isnt as bad as most of you all portray it to be. Do I think It could have been better. yes i do. But be patient and wait till Transformers 2 comes out and > you all.

BRING IT!
-
Not that it matters anymore. I'm sue Cody's script is all about grrl-power as represented by a shallow Maxim Bay bunny.
-
Will Megan still be playing Cassie Hack in the HACK/SLASH movie? Because that would be a much, much better role for her than this pile of ass sounds. Maybe they can just call this movie THANKSGIVING and let Eli Boll - sorry, Roth - make it.
Megan Fox makes me want to do the thick piss. -
Come on -what the fuck do you guys want from a movie based on a 1980s toy line? You hear people discussing this shit like it's fucking Shakespeare. Lee Strasbergian acting techniques and method characterisatoin aren't required in a film based on a car that is also a robot. For fuck's sake, get some perspective.
TRANSFORMERS had one hot ass chick, a likeable lead (Damn You Shia LaBouef!!!), some amazing action sequences, flawless SFX, and a rollercoaster ride of a movie. If you want deep characterisation and complex plotting, I recommend THE CAUCASIAN CHALK CIRCLE by Bertold Brecht, or some shit. -

Remember when all the Transformers watched her do Shia LaBoeuf?
by tallboy66
Because they were just sitting ontop of the car, making out, and all the Transformers were watching. Kind of a creepy note to end it on. But, really, Brain Austin Green tat? Please, tell me that's a lie.
-
Let's be fair, unless every photo of Megan Fox ever taken has been done by Michael Bay, he is not responsible for perpetuating her whore image - she is. I'm not judging (by God she's hot!) but if she keeps vetoing shots like that one in every magazine and website ever, she's going to look more smutty than sexy. Her image is going just the wrong side of La Lohan's.
And on her age: she's actually only 21. Maybe she should lay off the cigarettes and other unhealthy diet aids, if you know what I'm alluding to. -
Is it creepy to have a tattoo of Shannen Doherty on my cock?
If it is, thank god I never went through with it. That was some drinking sesh, my friend. -
That's a regenerating hymen I would like to break over, and over, and over, and over, and over... I'm sure Harry would agree.
-
She is smart enough to know that she is no great actress...but that through good genetics and a little bit o science she is in the top 1% of fuckable females on this planet. So she is simply cashing in on her only true gift before the inevitable happens and she ends up at 35 working as a prop for a Las Vegas Magician.
Thank the Devil for Whorish looking girls who are willing to give us what we want. -
Check out the pic that CHUD.com used for their article
-
Did she read all of those ? I guess she's both sexy AND smart. Is she still available ?
-
say it needs a part 2 to make it look good. but I think part 2 will be a much better film than the previous effort. Lets not forget this film was pretty well received by the general public.(Which is who filmakers make films for. Not to say you are one of these AICN elitist who think the average person is an idiot, but I know alot of people who consider it an enjoyable "yet" flawed film. And the fact remains, Transformers is esentially a toy commercial turned film.
-
I don't have a strong opinion on Megan's acting ability, only because I haven't seen her act enough to feel one way or the other. And just because another actor/actress declines a role shouldn't be a factor in one's own decision. Imagine all the movie roles that have been passed over with later regret. And just the opposite is true, too. There are quite a number of actors and actresses who wish they could turn back time and pass over a role (and perhaps more than one). And as to the role of Wonder Woman in the "JUSTICE LEAGUE" movie, I'm pulling for the acting talent of Kate Winslet. In my opinion, she would succeed where others would fail. And to me, she looks like the classic Wonder Woman.
-
just because a person happens to like a movie that you consider "Bullshit", Thats taking it a bit far isn't it. LOL. It was a very entertaining summer blockbuster. What were YOU expecting from it. It sounds like you had extremely high hopes...and maybe thats were we differentiate.
-
for Wonder Woman
-
obviously this has struck a nerve with you. So you tell me what you would have done differently, since you have this big ax to grind.
-
appologizing for the movie. as stated before I liked it. I didn't say it was the greatest thing ever put to film, It was exactly what I thought It would be And I wasn't dissapointed by that...And you said "when is genre and giant robotsa justification for crass stupidity"(in reference to transformers apologist) And also reffered to us as an enemy against genre and cinema....I was only qouting you. I agree genre has nothing to do with the movie being stupid(as you say) or enjoyable(like I thought it was) I'm not a big fan of Michael Bay, but I dont want him crucified either.
-
with your last post, I thought It would have been better animated, but having said that, for a live action transformers movie, I enjoyed it and I'm guessing so did alot of other people.
-
Hell, its "I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!" all over again!!
-
Yes, I went there.
-
Megan gets Megatron rusty, if you know what I mean.
-
Cuz I damn Michael Bay
-
Oh boy, how many posts from you in here now ? 20 ? 30 ? Remember me asking if you are on some sort of medication which you said no to ? Man, do yourself or at least a bunch of us a favour and go see the doctor. You don't even have to tell him anything. Just print out this thread and hand it over to the guy. I'm sure right after reading two or three of your posts from this he will write down a note with a really sweet description for you, no further questions asked. Until then, just lie down alright ?
-
Your are right in saying that just because a certain film is enjoyable that does not make it "Good" I agree , I watch Misquito(SP? all the time and its a truly horrible film, but I laugh till I'm bout to explode. Transformers isn't a film so horrible that people buy it just to laugh, Its just a solid film. Not great not bad. But thats so many films are made(that and money of course) because the fact of the matter is Somebody likes something that you may not enjoy and vice versa, you can't tell me that there are movies that many consider mediocre to be better than average no matter what the general consensus. Hell I think the Predator is better than Star Wars and before you go into a rant about that keep in mind that My favorite films of all times are Aliens, Edward Scissorhands, Terminator, The Thing & The Exorcist. So I would like to think I know a LITTLE something about cinema...what it comes down to is to each his own.

Which one made more The Bourne Ultimatum or Transformers
by fearofablackplanet
-
Look man, you're going way over the top with your rants again, which you do a lot.
Chill out Mr. Patient, we're just talking fun and pretty un-important stuff here. -
Could not make even the simpliest line in Transformers convincing. "Why are you here?" (Deadpan look) "When have you had to sacrifice in anything in you perfect little life?" (Deadpan smile, show some conviction for crying out loud). Pretty bad. Maria Pitillo in Godzilla bad. Good thing they didnt' make here fake cry, though. Still, she's more than welcome to give her next performance sitting on my face.
-
Hack/Slash is waaaaaayyyy cooler than this turd pile.
-
And it hurt!

You and I have clashed before in the Eli Roth talkbacks regarding whether or not a film is good/bad vs whether or not people like it or not. I'm not "defending" the movie - you yourself have made the point that you can like a bad movie. What I'm saying is that you can't expect TRANSFORMERS to be Citizen Kane. No matter who you get to script it, a movie about giant robots that turn into cars and boomboxes will not, and never can, rival the nuances in character that a Shakespeare or Mamet can deliver. For the record, I agree with you: TRANSFORMERS would be best served by a CGI, almost photo-real cartoon. But the beauty of your argument is this: THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT BAY MADE, BUT ON REAL FILM!!! It IS a kids movie! For Christ's sake, a robot pisses on John Turturro! This is for KIDS!!! There's no way you'll get in there the kind of existentialism of Blade Runner, for example, or the tenderness and simplicity of The Iron Giant. But it's based on a cartoon that was invented to sell toys! It's a fucking commercial, stretched out to movie length, and as Bay made some of the best commercials of the 90s - HE'S PERFECT FOR THIS SHIT!!! This is the same tired shit I hear about the BAD BOYS movies - maybe you don't like them, maybe you hate Martin Lawrence, maybe they're too focussed on action and bad puns and the slo-mo super-saturated colour and the Michael Bay Signature Shot (camera circling as the Bad Boys stand up, slowly) - but whatever your problem with the movies from a personal preference viewpoint, you CANNOT argue that they are badly made - and therefore bad movies. They are technically exceptional, often brilliantly pre-vizzed and choreographed, and a hell of a lot of fun to watch.
M-O-M, lighten up. Turn off your brain for two hours, just watch a non-threatening, harmless, non-philosophical actionfest for what it is: a popcorn blockbuster. Sometimes, you just need to turn on, tune in and drop out. Bay's movies, more often than not (and he's not without his howlers - ARMAGEDDON and PEARL HARBOUR?!?), are perfect for this.
It's just a toy robot commercials movie! -

Is incredible! To the haters, well, fuck you. She has certainly managed to make into my list of hottest babes ever on film. And that's a small list. By the way, there are better pictures of her online.
-
and give me a break, she can act just fine, and, I read an interview of her and she doesn't seem like a slut or anything. Actually she seemed like she had her brain on fairly straight and wasn't so full of shit like some are the days.
-
Check, check, check. Megan Fox here I come.
-
Yep, M-O-M, we're all agreed on that - hot lesbian sexorcisms to banish the evil within. Fnar!
Lornsorrow: you lie like a bitch! There are NO bad photos of Megan Fox. Anywhere. And if there are better photos than that, then, my friend, pony up and prove your words with deeds. I demand URLs!!!
Cameron1: you sick puppy. In fact, you're in good company in THIS talkback. -
I have to disagree with you about a movie about fighting gigant robots from space can't be on par with shakespeare or mamet (as you put it).
The thing that makes Sci-fi and Fantasy so great is the fact that we're dealing with the same stuff mythological and religious legends deal with, and that's metaphores. That's why stories containing supernatural elements or aliens or ghosts or gigant robots from space can be at least as great or even greater than "regular" stories.
It allows you to approach difficult subjects without scaring the viewer away like you might if you approach them head on.
Look at The Twilight Zone.
Even Shakespeare used ghosts in his stories, and mythological supernatural creatures. -
...I believe she's originally from my hometown. If Rockwood produced her, I feel like it should have done a little more for me. Hmm. Obviously not something in the water.
-
Hell she may even be a genius for all I know but you cannot tell me with a straight face that she was remotely convincing in Transformers. I half expected her to look directly into the camera at one point.
-
just wait until my GoBots movie drops.
-
I have to say I liked it. Didn't like Armageddon or Pearl Harbor, but liked Transformers. Sue me.

You wet, lusty, brainless, mouth-breathing, tight-clothes-wearing, superfluous-a-having Jennifer Connelly doppelganger, you.
-
I really liked Transformers. That's got nothing to do with it being based on a cartoon, comic book or toy franchise, I really liked the movie.
I wrote some opinions on why I think it's good in the Doomsday talkback, but unfortunately the TB died before anyone read it and I can't be bothered to write it again.
But my point is, it's a good ride and I think if it hadn't been, it wouldn't have been an excuse to just say it was based on a cartoon. -
What I mean is, I like it for its entertainment value, but I also appreciate the work, craftmanship and art that goes into making any film at all.
There's art in making something mainstream too, even if it's art of a different kind. It's still about conveying a particular feeling. You can't make a movie that's NOT art.
You still make creative decisions no matter which department of the movie you work in. -
it wasn't "based on the cartoon." There was very little of the original source material, concept, or delivery in this movie. Just because the original cartoon was simplistic doesn't mean it can't be elevated somewhat in a live-action adaptation.

They made this movie already - it was called "Idle Hands", but instead of a cheerleader it had Seth Green and instead of a hot chick it had Jessica Alba. Oh, wait...
-
From one of your posts; "Nigga, you's a nerd for LIKIN' this shit. Likin' Transformers ain't gonna get you no pussy". Thank you, that was a classic AICN moment.

that rant had me in stitches you fucking fanatic, the movie was a blast it made fucking millions and you and your basement dwelling cretin brigade are in the serious minority, i just hope bay continues to rape your childhood... its a fucking film you moron about robots...

Northlander: good points made on sci-fi as a genre using archetypal imagery and futurist characters, but the whole point of the TRANSFORMERS thing is that they were based on the toys first. Imagine people getting this bent out of shape over a CARE BEARS movie, or fucking THUNDERCATS - "the imagery of Thundera as an arid planet doesn't take into account the felinity of the lead characters blah blah" - you can just imagine how fucking silly that sounds. Something like STAR WARS is a whole other deal - the movie was a movie, separate in and of itself, BEFORE the merchandising blitz hit. The TRANSFORMERS cartoon series was made AFTER the toys hit - it was, essentially, a hlaf-hour commercial selling new Transformers to the kids who watched it weekly. I find it hard to imagine even a great writer turning what is essentially an animated sales pitch into an iconic example of the best of the sci-fi genre. If I'm missing an example, please enlighten me - but I'm not bent out of shape over Bayformers because - what else do you want from a two-hour live action toy commercial, which is in essence what it is? The SFX were awesome. Hot chick eye candy. Some funny shit. Some loud, explosive shit. The end. It did exactly what I wanted it to do - so why are people disappointed it wasn't the next MATRIX franchise or something?
It's a toy commercial movie. I have very low expectations for movies in THAT sub-genre, and I was rewarded. So why all the hate? -

I liked the Transformers movie too. A lot actually. And I'm not at all sad it isn't deeper or more thoughtful than it is.
That said, I still think it would have been possible to turn the source material into something deeper and more thoughtful.
Again, I'm not complaing it wasn't, just saying it could have been.
I was never at all into the cartoon series as a kid, but I loved both the toys and the comic books. The comic books were actually often really well written sci-fi. There were some really good issues of that comic. -
What I'd like to know is, if any of the people who just can't let go of it (like that MCXXECMFEE guy, mainly) have a touch of Asperger or something.

I also need to know if you have an Affiliate program. 'Cos if every looney tunes sent you $1400 USD to fuck a virtual Megan Fox...
You, sir, are an entrepreneurial genius.
ATARI: Get in line. As from the number of posts on this talkback, it's a very long line.
Excessive Bay hatred: I think it's partly people who don't like the style of his movies - and I absolutely retch when I see the OTT "patriotism" (RE military fetishism) in Armageddon. USA flags everywhere. More military hardware than Robert Heinlein dreamed of. Guns. Lots of guns. Bay has done more to establish the US in the movies as a militaristic war machine rather than a country than any other director on Earth. He is the polar opposite of Ridley Scott when he made Black Hawk Down - ironic, really, since BLACK HAWK DOWN looks exactly like a Bay movie but is, ideologically, absolutely opposed to Bay's movies.
Some people just can't stand stuff that other people like. I think Eli Roth and Paul WS Anderson suck shit as directors, but I acknowledge their right to exist as film-makers, no matter how shite their movies may be. And at least Roth is TRYING to make great movies. PWSA is just the useless waste of flesh that hangs off the goddess Jovovich. -
than being a pretty girl. If you are, you don't need talent.
-
to put it in her butt
-
One thing you have failed to make clear to all of us here at AICN:If you hate Bay as much as you claim, then why do you watch his movies? Why do you give the man your money?
-
Anyone got a bigger version of it? (& any others, come to think about it.....)
Megan Fox as a posessed psycho killer? That works for me.
What a way that would be to go.... -
I've seen her at Whiskey Bar a few times. She is absolutely gorgeous, but comes off like more trailer park than glamorous. And Brian Austin Green, her "man", never comes across as anything BUT a total douche bag.

Guess we have to get our news from websites that aren't close personal friends of Robert Rodriguez...

...to read that entire post. Jesus.Well, if you have learned your "lesson", as you've put it, I would hope & think that you've reached the nadir of your "Bayformers" ranting. Because 99.99% of your posts on this website are devoted to slamming all-things-Bay regardless of the subject at hand. You are, without a doubt, completely OBSESSED by Michael Bay and his cinematic take on TRANSFORMERS. It makes you look like a complete and utter loon. Quite frankly, I'm amazed that you seem to think you still have so much to say on the topic. It's unbelievable.Many of us have tried to address this with you but you don't seem very interested in listening. (Much like the many other questions I've put forth to you that, for whatever reason, have chosen to ignore.) TRANSFORMERS is not the end of cinema and it's certainly not the metric with which to measure other film fans' credibility. I think it's high-time you let go of this albatross you've chosen to place around your neck and move on.
-
...she is built for speed. That girl would destroy you.

Megan Fox can also star in When I Was a Teenaged Whore. :)

Yeah I agree about the OTT patriotism (I'd actually rather call it Nationalism). Especially since I live in a country where nobody celebrates the National Day or hardly anyone knows the lyrics to the National anthem.
There's a big difference between being a patriot and being a nationalist. A lot of people seem to forget that.
Btw, I don't want to give off the impression that the Megan Fox I'm providing is virtual in any way - it's actually the real thing.
Just send me the money and she'll arrive. Honestly, Atari.
Just send me the money first. -
HA!Looking worse for wear? Well, you're the one who took the time to write it. (Nice work on including the word "shit" 13 times in one post, too.) However, my apologies for feeling that my question did not require the full dissertation treatment. I appreciate your ability to waste an incredible amount of time on the subject. But I'll be damned if I willingly let you further waste mine as well.Nice try though, MoM.
-
We all love cinema. That's why we all post here. How is this news?
-
Wow. you hate Michael Bay more than I hate Paul W S Anderson. Wow.
You're an intelligent and thoroughly well viewed cinefan (half the stuff you referenced in the HOSTEL talkbacks I'd never heard of) but where does this hate come from?
Case in Point: BAD BOYS II. Way too many people badmouth this movie, except that when you ask for definitions why: nothing. It seems to be de rigeur to slag off this movie for no reason. What are your reasons for hating it? The action is flawless; the effects, exceptional (most of the CGI replacements you'd never notice). Is it the script? The plot? The stars? Is it 'cos it is black?
The BAD BOYS movies aren't to everyone's taste: this is true. If you're a fan of French existentialism, this ain't it. What these movies are, are dumb Saturday night popcorn and several beers entertaining crowd-pleasing lowest common denominator action blockbusters. There's no point sneering at other people who "didn't get it" with these movies, because they are so easy to understand that EVERYONE gets it. But just because YOU don't like them, doesn't mean that they are bad movies. On every technical level, they are flawless. On the creative level - well, that's all purely subjective. If you want to pick at holes in the plot, fine - let's get into that. But your hatred of Bay movies just sounds plain irrational - and for such a smart guy as yourself, that's doing you a grave disservice. You make yourself sound a lot dumber than I was giving you credit for. To each their own, my friend: one man's shitpile is another man's treasure. Let us like our Bay movies, and you can have your obscure Euro horros etc. -
Northlander - am I hailing a fellow Brit? Nice to see you if so, sir!
If not, greetings from the heart of England from the very English Spud. And I get what you're saying about patriotic vs nationalistic: my bad. -
i've been visiting this site for over 10 years now and i've seen quite a transformation. i enjoy cinema (if you can call it that these days), but i'm far from an authority on the subject. all i have is my opinion. and my opinion is it's a lot of fun to occasionally stop through and read the posts, especially when people get so belligerent towards each other. so i just wanted to say keep up the great work!!
-
Damn it. I can't stand those passionate/uptight "cinema fans" lecturing on which the classic, mediocre or atrocious films are. My personal taste in films is all over the place, i can like all kinds of films for many different reasons. Please stop being so annoying.
-
Nah I'm scandinavian.
But I like Britain. It's a nice place with nice people (and beer, gotta love that Guinness). -
I hope nobody actually owns that fake paypal email I wrote down before.
-
...so what you're saying is, the reason you hate Michael Bay's Transformers is that you went into the theatre expecting to see one thing, but didn't get it?
That's what this is all about?
You not getting what you want?
That's why you, nearly six months after it opens, still rave on about how much you hate the Transformers movie?
Quick question: Does this happen in other areas of your life when you don't get what you expect?
If the guys at work and you decide to go for a few pints after work at the local place, and you end up going somewhere else, will that piss you off too?
Just asking. -
Two words: stay gold. One of the few consistantly entertaining things about the talkbacks for big tentpole studio franchise adaptations is the one or two supernaturally obsessive OG fanboys who whip themselves into such paroxysms of absolute loathing that, in comparison, even the most fervent of al Qaeda zealots would be forced to seriously re-evaluate the sincerity of their commitment to their own cause. The Unabomber's manifesto was only slightly calmer and more nuanced than that little origin story you posted there. You couldn't pretend to be that pissed off, and really, why would you want to? But, from one bored guy to another, thanks for the memories... of MURDER!

So, the above article doesn't make a case for what I said above about not sounding too sluty! But, here is an interesting one (I thought she came off pretty interesting in this one:

also, check out: Megan-fox.net for other pics and stuff. -
I guess you are the one to tell me about tinyurl. I guess I'm just busy with life and other shit and on the slow side when it comes to some of these internet things...
-
you're right, I could have mentioned it nicer. sorry bout that.
on the other hand, look below the Post talkback button.
I mean, it helps people read the posts you make. -
I hope those urls I poster are usable, those pic of fox are very worth it!

"posted"
-
is Memories of Mushmouth. blah blah blah bayformers blah blah. The article is just talking about her being hot and possibly a psycho cheerleader. She HAPPENED to be in Transformers. So of course you just gotta, just GOTTA come in here and piss all over everyone's party. Douche.
-
her body looked fine in Transformers, though her acting matched the film (i.e. it SUCKED). I'm not convinced this girl deserves, or will ever have, a real career.
-
Damn my eyes. Your 40-mile-long link took me a magical bedroom where I was looking down at a beautiful blue-eyed brunette goddess... and then I read the words alongside it, in which she talks about "pinching a loaf" and leaving it in a friend's toilet. I'd say that just ruined it for me, but I'd be lying.
-
Cheers, Sir! We'll be meetin in the Razor TB's afore long, I guess.I must say that Megan Fox is built for speed, as you say, and I Stand Ready to Let Her Destroy Me. what a way to go....p.s. why bait MoM--just to watch him dance for you? dance he did!

I think we can all agree on the fact that this woman is one of, if not THE, most fuckable female on this planet right now.
But can she act?
Ah fuck it, who cares? Just put her in HACK/SLASH as Cassie Hack PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!! -

but enough about that movie how about some more megan fox pictures!

she seriously is beggin for it in that picture
by aicndoesntwantmorecowbell
ok im really horny right now.
-
The way she's covered in a sexy sheen of perspiration... the indiscretion of the lowered neckline and the lifted hemline of that short, sweet dress... the half parted lips, desperate for more... "You want me," she whispers, her husky voice barely heard, her breath caressing your neck, her hair cascading over your shoulders. She moves, lower, the flicker of a smile on those full, luscious lips; her dark eyes flash in anticipation of what is to come. She slips one shoulder out of her dress in one fluid movement --
Excuse me. I have to go clean up this keyboard. -
Thanks to the seething rage of the tbs Transformers plummeted to a paltry 317 million dollar domestic gross. The Catholic Church, the Nation of Canada and the Macintosh os welcome you into the land of vocal irrelevance. And - yeah - as Maestro Soprano once said "Its all about the cock-suckin, mother-fuckin money"
-
Nah, MoM doesn't need me to get him to dance. The boy has got ants in his pants.Definitely looking forward to RAZOR. (I'm sure we'll have some good TBs to look forward to.) Have you been watching the minisodes? How about that young Adama!
-
How bout his hot commander babe?
-
It's easy and short. Because he is a dirty little hypocrite who, despite strenuos protestations to the contrary, actually is part of the problem he constantly rails against- see the AvP TB.
-
"How bout his hot commander babe?"Yeah, no kidding. Quite luscious that girl (nip-slip and all). Too bad her face got torched!Makes me wonder what more they've got instore for young Adama...
-
I hear ya, buddy. Which AvP TB was this?
-
You keep on using that phrase as if it helps in getting some sort of flaccid point of yours across.MoM - your statements about cinema couldn't be more assumptive or redundant. I'm not sure of these "most people" you're refering to...I certainly don't know of many people who only subscribe to one or two genres of film. Is that how it is in Portugal?Anyway, thanks for completely missing the obvious barb contained within my previous post. I guess I should have closed it with a big "DUH" to make it more clear.
-
...make no mistake - just because you think you're some sort of enlightened cinephile, does not put you above the realm of Geekdom. On the contrary, you are (as you would put it) a "geekoid" and (as it just so happens) a victim to the "zietgiest" of hating one Mr. Michael Bay.How is that for base irony, MoM?
-
Fellas? This isn't the talkback for this kind of "art" argument...
-
Shocker."geekoid" - You mean there is another meaning for this word?! What could it possibly be?! I stand enraptured; awaiting your further horrific grasp of the English language.Newsflash: the "zietgiest" surrounding Bay & TRANSFORMERS was to hate them before, during, and after. I don't know what planet you're living on that would fail to receive this transmission. (I take it you did not read any of the Talkbacks preceding the release of the film?)The fact that some of the most bitter haters of Bay's work actually walked out of the theater and confessed to enjoying his film...just seems to be something that you, and you alone, can't overcome. I cite your many posts on the subject as proof.
-
You mean Portugal? Do you have something against Portugal?
-
...would address all the internet hate on the TRANFORMERS DVD? It couldn't be the zeitgeist of Bay hate now, could it? Nah.
-
It's possible I did mix you up - I remember you explaining about your TB name on one of the innumerable talkbacks about Roth and his torture porn stuff (still haven't seen MEMORIES OF MURDER but it sounds interesting), though you're far more likely to find me slagging off the extremely limited writing ability of Russell T Davies in anything even tenuously connected to Dr Who, and getting slammed as a homophobe in the process. We have tussled before though, MoM - though I do seem to have a bit more respect for you than a lot of the folks round these parts.
I mean, damn, people. Is it open season on MoM? He's a zealot on the Bay hate, for sure, but damn - he's allowed his opinion. Let the man speak.
RE the moisty glow around Foxy in TRANSFORMERS - I believe it was a sepia filter applied to his lens, plus a liberal spraying of baby oil in every frame. As stolen from Tony Scott, along with his shooting style, his editing, and all his ideas on how to stage action. Bay is Tony Scott Jr, and I've yet to hear him publicly admit to it, the bastard.
As for PWSA... supposedly he's an okay guy: I used to work with a guy who went to film school here in the UK with him, who says he's a great fella. I enjoyed MORTAL KOMBAT on its own terms - a video game adap that was watchable! Chris Lambert having a great time chewing scenery! PRINCE GORO!!! - and EVENT HORIZON was positively brilliant, if derivative. Still chilling. But everything he's done since just prove more and more that the bad far outweighs the good... And he's fucking Milla Jovovich, who is spawning the new generation of PWSA soon.
Bastard.
Oh, one more thing MoM - Reasons! REASONS why you hate BAD BOYS II!!! And that goes for the whole damn talkback. WHY do you hate BAD BOYS II so fucking much???
Back to the Body. Megan Fox is my bitch. I saw her way first. -
W.S. Anderson is spawning?
Good lord. We need to locate the seven daggers of Megiddo, stat! -
No shit! I swear I heard those unholy choir voices in my head when I read the story. But with Milla Jovovich! How fucking unfair is that???
"Let he that hath understanding, see the Letters of the New Beast, for it is the abbreviation of a film. And its Letters are - A.V.P."
When that unholy stillbirth of a movie was shat upon us from Fox, I knew that PWSA was the Hollywood Anti-Christ. Get the daggers, Northlander - let us end this!!! -
http://tinyurl.com/2eth74
not sure if it'll work though or if we'd need the originals. -
Because if PWSA teaches his spawn to love movies...
AvP: The Next Generation *shudder*.
Liking the Megiddo daggers, though! I wonder, though... if Milla Jovovich were to come to her senses and stab him in the shoulder with a Megiddo blade, who would PWSA see hovering before him in the air, gloating as he falls? My guess: the patron saint of great genre movies, John Carpenter. complete with PS3 controller and fried chicken in hand. He'd be grinning through his blunt-stained beard and red trucker's cap, as Anderson falls to his knees, his unholy reign on Hollywood over at last:
PWSA: "You have won nothing... Carpenter!"
He dies.
JC: "Fuck you for killing AvP! Fuck you!!! Now for that Escape from New York remake..."
The Shyamaln twist is that Carpenter is in fact the REAL Hollywood Anti-Christ, and we get the remake of Big Trouble in Little China, starring Shia LaBoeuf. I explode out of sheer rage. Memories-of-Murder plots elaborate revenge against Carpenter. And you get to wander the Earth with the remaining Megiddo blades, wondering what the fuck happened.
I'm going to stop drinking the fizzy brown liquid now. I feel very strange. -
You idiot, why don't you just mail your buddy who asked you about that Bay flick. Do you even have a clue what you're doing here? It's not about what movies you do or don't care about man. Passionate about cinema my ass. You're a madman. So what is it ? ADHD ? Asperger's ? If you say you're perfectly healthy and fine, well man, you're really wrong. You freak me out, go seek some help buddy.
-
Oh boy...
-
Well, that was a definitive answer my friend! Where to begin?
About the fact that BB2 takes nothing seriously... that's because it's an action movie, a popcorn blockbuster. I accept that there are smart blockbusters - for my money, nothing Bay has ever done touches the genius of the BOURNE ULTIMATUM )in fact the entire BOURNE TRILOGY) - but then, some movies are serious, some aren't. This movie is as far from Schindler's List as you can go, which negates any reason to compare the two. You may as well compare TRANSFORMERS to CITIZEN KANE. I think your biggest problem with this movie is in the way you're watching it: you're expecting some cinema verite masterpiece like Michael Mann's revamped MIAMI VICE, which has a great, sleazy little mockumentary feel to it: the feeling that it isn't a movie, but something some hidden cameras have picked up. BAD BOYS 2 is as realistic as BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA: it's a blast, a rollercoaster ride, nothing serious at all.
Did it need the Gitmo bit, or the Cuban bit? Not at all. The whole damn thing felt superfluous. You could have ended it after they get the drugs and money from the coffin, with a ten minute bit after that where they go to apprehend Johnny Tapia, and instead have to blow him sky high. Boom. Done. The whole Cuban bit was shit - and after the Abu Ghraib photos and all the mistreatment going on at Gitmo thanks to the Thief in Chief, well, watching BB2's Gitmo sequence now leaves a very sour taste in my cultured mouth.
Are they hardcore? Are they hell. Put the Bad Boys in DISTRICT 13 (seriously, that movie is fucking awesome!) and they'd last about five seconds. These movies are about two things: Will smith is eye candy for the chicks and the gay guys, and Martin Lawrence is funny when he's angry/picked on by his wife/being shat on by Joe Pantoliano/trying to stay calm with the Wusah! thing. Now, you either like Lawrence's humour or you don't. Fair enough. It's like watching anything with Shia LaBoeuf in it: I see why everyone raves about the kid - he's quick witted, his timing's good, and he has that fressh face but world weary air about him that seems incongruous. But I don't find him funny or charming: to me, he tries too hard, he's grating, and he's annoying. Do I think his appearance in a movie automatically makes the movie bad? Hell no. It's my preference. It's like liking Tom Cruise or not: he's good at what he does, but whether you like him or not depends on whether you like what he does well. You REALLY don't like Smith or Lawrence: fine, but it don't make them shit. They're damn good at what they do: you just hate what they do. Fair enough.
The corpses on the freeway bit was done better by the Adam Rifkin movie THE CHASE in 1994 - Charlie Sheen and Kristie Swanson, who looks so much sexier when screaming than Martin fucking Lawrence does. Enough said there.
We seriously have to agree to disagree with the action scenes. Take the freeway bit, for instance: it doesn't advance the plot> In the course of that scene, we understand how serious the Haitians are about offing the cops; how they're willing to do ANYTHING to get away; that Will Smith's character stays in control during the action, but that Lawrence's character is leaving the partnership precisely because he DOESN'T enjoy the action; and the bombshell that they didn't previously know - that Sid is actually not a desk jockey at all, but is a DEA agent in the field, which is a major personal affront to Marcus. All important stuff - and it gives Joe Pantoliano a good reason to give us one of his classic Chief exlpoding in the office scenes, which he does brilliantly. It shows how failing to complete an objective for the Bad Boys can actualy cause serious repercussions for the whole dept.
About the Americans having the right to invade who they want, when they want, with no reason or explanation: even the President does that these days. It's by no means just a Bay phenomenon. It's not something I enjoy watching, either, but it's the same with any soldier's story: he doesn't care what the politics are in the situation, why a war was started or whatever, he is paid to train and to fight, period. When the bullets start flying, you watch the backs of yourself and your men, and go after the enemy. Period. This movie isn't a political discourse: they're basically only a couple of levels above beat cops. They don't make policy.
I could go on. "Don't!" I hear everyone cry. It's a popcorn movie, not a deep and meaningful movie! You sound like you need to stick to Michael Mann, Scorsese or Joe Carnahan (not seen it, but NARC sounds like your bag). This is a silly, fun movie. Sure, it has flaws. It ain't perfect. But it goes great with a pizza and a six-pack. And that's how it's meant to be.

10 bucks says Aspberger's is the most common disorder on these boards.
Funny trivia about Aspberger:
It's pronounced "ass burger". -
Yeah, he did THE THING. He also made HALLOWEEN, BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA, ESCAPE FROM NEW YORK, THE FOG, STARMAN, 4and THEY LIVE.
Oh boy. Then he made JOHN CARPENTER'S VAMPIRES, GHOSTS OF MARS... and he exec produced THE FOG remake.
For allowing that fucking travesty to go anywhere NEAR a cinema screen - and I'm more offended by the Fog remake than Alien Vs Predator, which at least had no original producers or writers of the Aliens or Predator movies on board - John Carpenter should be fucking horse whipped. I agree he's given us great, great movies - you have no idea what I would do for a new Jack Burton movie, and I'm forever defending ESCAPE FROM LA, which I really enjoyed - but after THE FOG remake, he's a hack for hire these days. He takes the money and runs. But whatever reasons he has for this - and I'm sure they're good reasons - he's stopped caring about what happens to his movies, his characters, and his enduring legacy. Now his name is just attached to shit. That's worse than if he were shit to begin with.
So fuck it... He gets a Meggido too. Right, Northlander? -
I'm aware it's some kind of autism variant. Who knows?
-
I'm not sure a Megiddo will suffice against alien forces.
My Bat-puter tells me it might be the same aliens that are behind the Elvis, Michael Jackson and Bruce Willis replacements.
No, what we need here is a version of Invasion of the Body Snatches, that has a happy ending. We need to see how these mindless drones might be defeated.
Although I must say I loved JC's Vampires. It's Vampires, and it's a western, with James Woods. Sweet.
I wish it would have been made into an official sequel to From Dusk 'Till Dawn or something, because FDTD 2 and 3 were crapioca pudding. -
Enjoyed the movie, but if it had really stuck to the novel, it would have been exceptional.
-
But osme people LIKE crass and stupid - it's kind of a relief from the intellectual stuff.
I'm really not going to budge you on this BAD BOYS II thing, am I?? >:p
You're not put upon this earth to "get it"... -
Jack Burton would kick some ass about now.
Sad thing however, if we got him today he would come in the form of Sean William Scott, and Wang would be played by John Cho. -
John Cho and Seann William Scott. I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
-
Cheers mate, it is a pleasure. Unlike a lot of others on here, I appreciate a damn good rant. I'll post you a url to my Russell T Davies rants sometime - they went on for fucking ever...
I know what you mean about the real relief being intellectual, intelligent movies - but BB2 is so much dumber than your average dumb movie that it feels like a respite in itself. I know you don't enjoy a movie THAT dumb in the way that I do, but BB2 actually makes BULLETPROOF MONK and other no-brainer actioners look intelligent by comparison. It's the same reason I love HAROLD & KUMAR GET THE MUNCHIES so much: it's so fucking dumb I can laugh with my reptilian, primal brain. It requires no effort whatsoever. Which is good, sometimes.
But unfortunately the Northlander has a point about Big Trouble, and we have to do something about that!!!
Will look out for ARMOUR - I like John Steakley, he's pulp reading with style. Reminds me of Mike Resnick (SANTIAGO is my favourite sci-fi novel EVER) and Robert Vardeman (loving THE WAR OF POWERS and its sequel). So, I'll keep em peeled for ARMOUR - thanks for the heads up. -
Don't give me that nonsense about what my intentions on this board are.
Last thing I come here for is to make stupid remarks to other guys on here. I knew you were gonna say something like that again. And I think we both now why that is, and that's because the last thing you want to admit on this board is that something isn't quite right with you indeed. Which I can understand by the way. What country are you from by the way ? I'm Dutch. -
Yeah?
How bout these:
A Rocky remake, starring Matt LeBlanc.
Colombo movie franchise reboot, starring Christian Slater.
Star Wars Holiday Special 2008, where Jar Jar and his family celebrates Life Day - And Natalie Portman Sings!
Top Gun sequel, starring Shia LeBeuf as Maverick's son
Little Shop of Horrors with McLovin from Superbad playing Seymore
Maculay Culkin in anything new at all
Hey you may laugh now, but one year ago, if I had said "Enter the Dragon remake, but as film noir" you'd have laughed too.
BTW all the above mentioned casting and remake choices (except Enter the Dragon) is registered TheNorthlander TM copyright 2007 (c).
Any attempt to film these movies with this cast without prior consent from TheNorthlander TM will be subject to criminal prosecution in a federal court, so Hollywood don't even try it.

...and is therefore, by definition, EVIL (spit spit)
-
Oh yeah- Young Guns 2. It's what Billy The Kid says before he shoots someone. I remember thinking that was really cool when I was 12. As it were. MNG- the one where he posted some shit about how he'd definately be booking a date with Mr. Alien, Mr. Predator, and lots and lots of Mr and Mrs Dead People this Christmas. Based entirely on one shitey preview. Despite the fact that it is established that AvP2 has a fucking predalion in it, and is set in FUCKING KMART (the stupidity of this bugs me)- he is a dirty, pathetic little hypocrite who likes to pontificate on the various merits of high-brow cinema, berate people that enjoy dumb movies for being somehow lesser beings, and yet at the same time is salivating at the thought of a heinous marketing tie-in nightmare that is viciously defiling the heritage passed down by Ridley Scott, James Cameron, David Fincher, and John Mctiernan (All directors that PWSA is not fit to bring bagels to)He also thinks the Long Kiss Goodnight is shit- but can only express himself by loosely paraphrasing Chritopher Brookmyre's criticisms of that film in One Fine Day In The Middle Of The Night- and that anyone that enjoyed it is a submoron.On PWSA- a loathsome sub-boll director. I hate to say this, but shopping is actually good- despite having the unholy duo of Jude Law and Sadie Frost in it. Event Horizon is OK, MK is fun in a dopey way, and then there is the absolute sin of Resident Evil. Fucking Amnesia- I mean, what? Amnesia is the tool of the hack writer who cannot come up with a decent plot. It was so avoidable because the premise of the ganme would actually have worked fine, but noooooo- PWSA knew better. The only redeeming feature of Resident Evil is that it is vastly better than its sequel which is a complete and utter disgrace to celluloid. A stupid PG13 moron fest, populated by imbeciles with 0 charisma, moronic sub-bay action sequences and a soundtrack written by God himself (Satan has the best tunes). A complete soapy tit-wank of a film. I wouldn't watch the third one- even if it had the mighty Warwick Davies in it.
-
"I GOT A NEW HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT FOR YOU"- Your fucking English is beyond painful, and last time you said that you only take lessons in the language from a native. I hereby nominate myself. I don't give out gold stars for good work, but I shall have a thug stomp you every time you persist in attempting to be condescending without the intellectual chops to back it up. Tool. Unfortunately, you are correct about both BB2 and The Fog. I feel dirty and shameful, not to mention a little violated, admitting that.
-
it was early and I was hungover. I have no excuse really. Fuck PWSA- the horrid Milla defiling tosspiece. May the fleas of 1000 camels infest his arsehole.
-
I know exactly how clever I am, and, unlike you, do not have an over-inflated sense of my own importance. As it were. I also discriminate by quality. As it were. My point about your hypocrisy is this- AvP 2 is just about the stupidest script/ story ever written. The reason that the Kmart setting is so appalling is that it is an utterly wasted opportunity and squanders everything about the original Alien films (not to mention the 2 predator efforts) that made them classic. It shows little to no understanding of the property, and your DOTD analogy is spurious at best. To compare Alien and DOTD is appalling, it is an irrlevant attempt to confuse the issue. AvP is not a zombie survival film. It is- or at least should be- science fiction and not set in arsefuck, Texas, in the year 2007. The fact that they have chosen to waste an opportunity to do a big, bold Alien epic (which is what could have been done) is indicative of the low-rent marketing driven shite behind the film. As it were. With your constant harangues against stupidity in cinema (with a capital "C") you should want to, based on what we have seen, avoid this like a 90 year old hooker with genital warts. As it were. Yet you are enthusiastic about it.Fine- setting is irrelevant? then I'd like to see you justify the predalion. As it were.It represents the absolute nadir of film and the "enthusiasm" of the directors is absolutely irrelevant. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't PWSA himself hugely enthusiastic about the first one? As it were. Finally, I don't give a fuck if it will be worse than the first one (that would be impossible) but it could very easily equal the first one in crapness. Remember, these are the 2 dipshits that wrote At least it isn't PG13. My real hatred of this is based in my feeling that either way (box office bomb, or success) this will bang the final nail in the coffin of the Alien movies.

Console yourself with being correct about the fog remake and Platinum Dunes in general. -
I would really like to see an adaptation of an old book I vaguely remember called Earth Hive. I seem to remember the company/ military successfully managing to get an Alien back to Earth. Word gets out and these weird cultists become obsessed. They storm the facility with suicide bombers- get a facehugger each and fuck up the whole planet.That would be cool, and vaguely topical. If you want the predators can come down and hunt the Aliens for sport whilst a few isolated pockets of humanity attempt to fight both off. There you go, I've just come up with a better premise than Texas 2007 AvP 2: The corporate schilling.
-
my English usage is very, very based in dialect- but otherwise pretty flawless (as it should be), and light years away from your dismal, embarrasing attempts to drop common colloquilisms in to sentences: Ceilings of glasses and all that.The phrase is "Glass houses". My portuguese is shite though. The difference between us, dickhead, is that I do not rail or pontificate about people's mental faculties for enjoying bad movies. I do not pretend to be some almighty arbiter of taste. And if I did then I would scrupolously avoid shite like AvP2. Of course I have been suckered in to dross, but you don't find me telling the likes of Bodet that he is a moron for liking it. You on the other hand, our blessed guiding light in cinema, actively promote and seek utterly retarded shit. Hence the hypocrisy. If you are going to Talk the Talk you have to Walk the Walk. I'm done with you now. So fuck off.
