When will you be planning to first see the TF5 movie at the theatres?

I never said I was "against Bay's vision of Transformers."
I hope for the best but am expecting the worst. Because I walked into the first three films with higher expectations - the first film was quite enjoyable but RotF and DotM were disappointing. I want - so desperately - to see Bay produce a TF film that's good, but based on past experience I dare not get my hopes up because it's more frustrating if the film turns out to be bad.

It's basically like a defensive mechanism. That way if the story is rubbish, then it's what I expected. But if the movie is good, then I'll be elated. It's easier to watch a bad film when I brace myself for it to suck. I recently watched the Warcraft movie - this was only made possible because I had really low expectations. Because if not for this, my inner voice of Disgust would be constantly and loudly nitpicking the film really, really loudly. When I lower my expectations then my Joy voice just tells Disgust to shush now.

I get that, but after 3 times hoping for the best, I think I'm out, even if it is Transformers.

I will see it 3 times (like every other TF movie) so I will help 'make up the numbers' for Bay.

This is why we can't have good films.
