The new transporter movie looks like shit.

Chakas · August 13, 2015, 01:34:40 PM

The trailer makes it seem like it was written and named by a 10 year old. The casting seems to be terrible. The car is incredibly forgettable and not a BMW. How can you have a Transporter movie without a BMW? It's a fucking staple of the franchise? It's sad that BMW probably lost the bidding war to have their car in this movie. At the same time, I'm kind of glad that they won't have their car in this movie because I think it's going to suck. And no Statham? Without him the movies are unwatchable. This movie looks to be the Terminator: Salvation of the Transporter franchise.

Behold:

No surprise, most movies are complete tripe these days.

It looks like Generic White Person Action Flick 7.

this is a parody right?
i saw the thumbnail and had to hold back a chuckle, that is the least intimidating white person they could have chosen

Maybe I'm just not seeing any but I struggle to think of a decent film released this side of 2010.

There have been some good ones sure, but none are really leaping out and screaming 10/10 at me. Can anyone just like, spit film names that they think are good from '10 onwards until I see something that isn't shit/meh/alright <_<

the kings speech - Got that one on the shelf near me, I hear good things but never had the push to watch it >_>
true grit - Not heard of <.<
drive - I'm just not even gonna go here because well, it's better that way.
the artist - Not heard of <.<
midnight in paris - Not heard of <.<
007: skyfall - Enjoyable, but Adele singing the intro soils the film fully for me.
argo - Heard of, missed the chance to see
chronicle - Rings a bell
john wick - Not heard of <.<
birdman, or, the unexpected virtue of ignorance - Heard of, was thinking of going to see it but for some reason that I don't remember I didn't and I subbed for one of my other friends who likes arty films a lot more than me >_>
nightcrawler - Heard of, I know it has Jarhead in it and uh... mordo had an avatar from it I think.
kingsman - Heard of, seems to be well received but um I never go to the cinema >_>
mad max: fury road - I do want to see that, not sure if I'll get to though.
ex machina - Same as the above, I think I already missed that one but netflix-senpai will save me I hope.

>_>

Maybe it's just me living under the rock and all that then, I struggle to watch films nowadays unless it's like 11/10 holy shit inject it into my veins because I just lose attention/interest >_>

I just... I've spoiled myself with video games I think. If I'm not actively shooting/dismembering/maiming/pillaging what is on the screen... it's hard to stay focussed. Unless what I see is doing that for me ala justified/the raid(2)/black lagoon etc

You should have a movie day and watch every movie on that list because they're all fantastic.

Must be that killing myself is better than seeing this film, so I shall avoid it. Thanks for the heads up.

But Generic White Person Action Flick 5 and 6 were so good though.

The transporter is really just a series centered on a male stripper

Literally kill yourself. 5 was terrible. The plot twist was shit and not surprising at all. Stealing nuclear codes is one of the most cliche action movie plot elements there is.

Shutup. The last two movies never happened.

No Statham in a BMW with flippy license plates, no Transporter.

I don't think I've even seen all of the Transporter movies

never really like the transporter movies anyway. Honestly never even like Jason Statham either.
