Oh wait, it’s just Hasbro up to their old tricks again. We saw the first trailer for Battleship hit the net a couple of months ago and a lot of people at the time were saying it’s kind got a similar vibe as Transformers. I kind of washed that aside hoping for something a little more interesting, sticking within the confines of the board game. Um… no.
This thing is just an excuse to put out another Transformers movie in 2012 but not officially call it Transformers. You don’t believe me? You will Dr. Jones. Have a look below the seats for the laughability of the fact that Hasbro has the gall to call this anything other than what it is: Transformers Again.
I’m going to give Peter Berg the benefit of the doubt. I’ve enjoyed all of his movies. And The Rundown is one of my all time favorite action movies. Trailers for blockbusters are made to get the mainstream movie watchers in the seats. I remember watching the Hancock trailer for the first time, and saying to myself this looks like shit. And except for the third act, that movie turned out to be was really good.
