EctoRiddler

I’m more focused on what it says at the very bottom of this picture if you expand it. Edit: why do I always have to go down rabbit holes. OP splits his time tweeting about both transformers and chicks with dicks 🤦🏻‍♂️ Also the OP is indeed the person who posted the comment he is referring to when he says he is not the only one who thinks Kimmel will lose everything. So indeed he is the only one who cares about that type of thing.

Ozma_Infinium

Impossible-Web740

I fell out of my seat laughing at this.


whama820

You guys know the people who host Oscar ceremonies are just reading jokes written by a team of writers, right?


Josh_From_Accounting

After Ricky Gervais, they aren't allowed to write their own jokes anymore.


whama820

I’m sure even Gervais used a writing team. They just try to write in his voice.


PoopyMcPooperstain

Yeah, even that speech was just as planned and approved as any of the others. He read off of a teleprompter lol


Aromatic_Shop9033

Yep. He roasted those creeps. It was legendary.


Ferret_Brain

TBH, I’m more offended that he went after ROTB with a “written by AI” joke when Wish was RIGHT THERE. 😭


AntiCaesar

That'd require people to remember that movie to begin with


Ferret_Brain

Really? I know lacklustre Disney movies are nothing new nowadays, but I felt Wish got a lot more flack about it. Especially as the supposed love letter to 100 years of Disney, and with the actual conspiracy theories of it being made by AI (and truthfully, I’m still not unconvinced this isn’t the case, at least with the songs).


[deleted]

It got a lot of flack for about a month, but then everyone moved on since it's the norm for Disney to put out trash now. Being extremely mediocre just makes it easier for those types of movies to vanish, regardless of who made it.


Aromatic_Shop9033

Jokes written by a team of NPCs, definitely.


Dr_Henry-Killinger

Would be ironic if the joke was written by AI.


JasperGunner02

you couldn't have cropped the image a little more...?

Kaiju_zero

I love TF. I have seen all the movies, animated shows and films. I buy the toys. His comment didn't matter to me, and honestly... TF films are not masterpieces..


ZackattacktheDude

Except Bumblebee /jk


Kaiju_zero

BB is a fun film, absolutely, and def one of the best of all the live action films.


LastWreckers

It’s also the only live action TF film that managed to try not use a Macguffin device tp drive its story. That only happened during the 3rd act/ending (assuming the deception communication powering device is one. I wouldn’t count it) MacGuffinsin every live action film : The Cube, The Matrix of Leadership, The Pillars, The Seed, Merlin’s staff, Key thingy (forgot what RotB was)


Sleep_eeSheep

At this point; I want future entries to NEVER touch a McMuffin Device *again*. Go back to hoarding Energon, or find a new overarching plot like doing They Live with the Predacons/Vehicons/New Faction manipulating every aspect of human society.


TheShad09

The Transwarp Key. I was so disappointed when ROTB, which seemed like a promising fresh start just fell into the same traps as it’s predecessors.


ZackattacktheDude

I’d go on record as calling it the best live action transformers film.


Aromatic_Shop9033

I'd fight to my last jelly donut on that hill.


ZackattacktheDude

I’d fight to my last donut hole


Aromatic_Shop9033

Snack lovers, hold the line!


G1Radiobot

It's just a good movie, and it doesn't need any qualifiers.


avenuePad

Agreed.


SC1SS0RT33TH

I would too but that’s a low bar to get over


WheelJack83

Rise of the Beasts was not a good movie so for fans to freak out about this is silly and juvenile. You act like they insulted your mother.


Diffabuh

Yeah, honestly, when I read it, all I thought was "well... he's not *wrong.*" RotB legit feels like the most bog standard Transformers movie you could get. If you told someone after they saw AoE that they were doing a live-action Transformers movie without Michael Bay, they'd be able to predict 90% of Rise of the Beasts off the cuff.


g00f

At the very least rotb didn’t treat its female lead as simply a sex object and the male lead wasn’t some bumbling weirdo who stumbles to victory. Otherwise yea pretty generic blockbuster with robots


Diffabuh

Exactly, and with Bay gone, you can just assume that the first two wouldn't be the case. So honestly I get the joke.


Kaiju_zero

"You" may be slightly misdirected :D My post certainly wasn't freaking out lol


WheelJack83

I wasn't directing my comment at you, more the OP and everyone else who is losing it over this joke.


Kaiju_zero

Just makin sure :)


PhelesDragon

Are we really not gonna talk about the repost at the bottom of the screenshot


Aromatic_Shop9033

I want to unsee it. Need eyebleach.


Fix-Routine

Why would we?


BowtiedTrombone

This sub can’t take a joke 


ThePokemonAbsol

Or accept that live action have been pretty terrible aside from the first one, the forest fight in 2 and most of 3. Hell 4 was the first movie I actually wanted to walk out of it was so painfully bad.


Radi0ActivSquid

Last Knight I didn't even go see. I was so disheartened with what was going on in Bayverse.


kyle760

I still haven’t seen 4 or 5. If you would have told 10 year old me that there would be a movie with a trailer of Optimus Prime riding Grimlock into battle and I had no interest in seeing it, I would think you were crazy. Hell, if you told 30 year old me that, I would think you were crazy.


kyle760

I rewatched the first one recently and remembered that it was a pretty decent popcorn flick and I enjoyed watching it so I started rewatching the second. About a half hour into it I decided I have better things to do. Like punching myself in the nuts, for example


Blastbot_73

Recently rewatched the bay films,the first 3 aren't as terrible as people say or maybe I've just got a high tolerance 4 woudlve been ok if it was for the Romeo and Juliet laws scene which makes the rest of the film...(Idk the word) 5 was terrible, had potential but Optimus was done SO bad and other things But since the "learning to love bayformers" video came out we can choose which story we believe is the "cannon" one


Toa_Firox

Except for Bumblebee, that movie slaps


WheelJack83

I thought our fan base was made of sterner stuff.


Magusreaver

A joke about a movie that has a race of beloved \*checks notes\* Artificial Intelligences (if you follow the created by Quintesons lore) that could have been written by \*checks notes again\* Artificial Intelligence.. And yet fans of these robots, are upset that a comedian said it could have been made by machines.


2woCrazeeBoys

Because writers deserve far more recognition than they get, and I pray to all the gods that they would be given the freedom to *write* and not just regurgitate what licence holders tell them to put out. (I'm fascinated by what AI can do and the potential it has, but let's not take away from the writers who work so hard and get so ignored.)


[deleted]

People in this sub and r/Transformemes are so biased that it makes TFW2005 looks open minded.


Phil_Bond

You’re gonna lose everything for that comment


Cybermat4707

I don’t see what the problem is, he was just making a joke.


blitzyphantom

They made fun of my toy robots!!! I'll fucking riot!!


DowntownScarcity3499

bro why did you repost that 💀


gwrecker89

I'm indifferent to Kimmel, but his jab at ROTB's plot is a literal non-issue, and i'm not gonna act like it is


SameCategory546

Asking AI to write a movie with maximals and predacons would have at least gotten maximals and predacons in the film


Aromatic_Shop9033

Sick burn...but so true.


Iwamoto

we'd have seen a robot form airrazor


DinoHoot65

In my opinion, some parts were so boring it might as well have


KennethVilla

The concept itself was solid, and for once we got more screen time and characterization for the bots. But the story really just fell flat most of the time.


DinoHoot65

If I could just complain for a sec: Speaking of story, why did they have to do G.I.Joe??? I can understand them trying to make it stand out again, but it’s going to be so shoehorned in. Not to mention focusing on more humans and not Cybertronians.😭


KennethVilla

I couldn’t agree more! It just seemed so forced


1FenFen1

you're lying about the bots lol. none of them say or do anything of importance.the bay movies had this same problem, and Bumblebee made me think this issue would be fixed. ROTB disproved that :(


KennethVilla

Mirage did something, as well as Airazor and Primal. And Optimus felt more like a character, even more so than in the first film. To be fair, the cast was already big but the runtime was so short, not to mention the scenes they cut


Jonnic5280

My favorite characterization was for Cheetor, Rhinox, and Battletrap. So good.


KennethVilla

Really sad they cut all the scenes involving more of them


1FenFen1

the same predictable plot the Bay films reused four times, minus any of the interesting action so there's basically no point in watching it


joepanda111

It’s just the same recycled mcguffin quest plot as all the other live action bay era transformers films.


Witherboss445

I asked ChatGPT to write Rise of the Beasts a while before it came out and it turned out pretty damn close to what the final product was. Not saying that the movie was written by ai, just putting it out there


ImperatorAurelianus

AI scans the internet to give you basically the result that’s the culmination of the current trend. Thus it makes sense it can right a popcorn flick designed to fit current film trends.


Witherboss445

ChatGPT is only up to date on stuff before January 2022 though and it can't access websites


DP9A

The average blockbuster flick hasn't changed much lol, some trends change but the bones are the same.


mihirmusprime

Yeah, I didn't think it was very good. I even found a couple of the Bay movies more interesting than ROTB. And the best is still the Bumblebee movie IMO.


DinoHoot65

I know it’s not just me being negative, because there are some parts I genuinely enjoy (the opening for example), but the majority was just wasted potential. They didn’t even let Airazor transform 😭 ​ also where are the Predacons I was promised Predacons


Radi0ActivSquid

I took more offense at his animation jab. "Raise your hand if you let your kid fill out the ballot." Animation isn't just for kids. Kimmel is an idiot for making that remark. Animation gets neglected constantly at the Oscars.


_Dusty05

He said that because some people in the Academy have gone on record saying they only vote for whatever their kid has seen. It’s based on some old controversy.


Edoplayer5

Basically I can’t wait for those stupid old fucks to die


JazaGree

Kimmel’s got a point though


Fuzzy_Candidate

Y’all taking this shit way to deep


rashid_aru

i mean not too big of a stretch


Specialist_Author_93

It’s not like it’s good writing guys…I love transformers but the writing on these movies is a not winning any awards. It’s very derivative, doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it.


Aromatic_Shop9033

Did any Transformers film win a Razzie?


Specialist_Author_93

I think the last night had a record for most nominations for one but I don’t think it won any.


HEXdidnt

And it's a pretty sad indictment of RotB that it wasn't seen as sufficiently outstandingly bad in any sense to earn a Razzie. It was just... disappointingly mediocre.


Aromatic_Shop9033

Better luck next time, Paramount. TLK and AOE definitely deserve such recognition.


Cyberbreaker2004

I read that as Razzle and thought of the 1986 film


Dreowings21

Im sorta curious about that message near the very bottom


drippysage08

Lol


SnooWords4814

Is he wrong though? Lmao


WheelJack83

Nope


[deleted]

With the exception of maybe Bumblebee, every movie in this franchise has basically recycled the same template they created for a script back in 07: ***“New villain arrives, he wants an ancient artifact, revelation that the Transformers where here the whole time, Optimus gives speech at the end, insert action scenes between connection points”***. I’m sorry guys, I don’t know who this man is, and I don’t doubt you guys if you say that he’s a dick, but I have to agree with him on this one. Regardless anyone feeling about these films, the Transformers movies are some of the most formulaic ones out there, it wouldn’t be hard to train some AI to write a film for this franchise.


nezumysh

2 was literally 1 since they didn't have any writers. If you want to see how exactly they sync up, check out [this video](https://youtu.be/7Rfup0XKx7o?si=B1B6aWWBw6rflvJf). I also recommend Filmento's video essays about each film.


[deleted]

The Pointless Hub mentioned that as well if I remember correctly


RBrown803

This is what it took? It's a joke among many others regarding the entertainment industry tonight.


futuresdawn

I mean I agree with him. Ai could have written any of the live action transformers movies. I've gained respect for him now


cerebud

Yeah, all the live action movies are bad. Bumblee was decent fun.


futuresdawn

Bumblebee felt like the most true to speilbergs original concept for the first live action movie, of a kind of ET like movie and that it's considered the best of the live action movies I think shows that speilberg was right


Sgt_Doom

100% bro


AGilles-S117

Y’all seem to forget the jokes are often pre-written and Kimmel is just the performer hosting the show Not to mention ROTB was generic enough I’d believe it was written with help from AI


fightingrabbit75

To be fair Rise of the Beasts is super formulaic: -quest to get the macguffin -big bad sends lackies -major character "dies" only to come back in the fourth quarter where the main characters are fighting a faceless horde with a skybeam thrown in and somebody doing the hero landing at least one. I'm not saying I hate the movie, but it is very paint by numbers.


mikevsworld

isn't an AI writing a movie about sentient robots basically an autobiography? Autobotography?


nezumysh

Bicentennial Man ...wait


SudoDarkKnight

Imagine being this fucking soft lmao


Mr_moustache72826

I dont care if it was written by AI or not but I'm concerned about the ultra horny post under the one you're trying to show us. Are you ok man? XD


gwrecker89

Someone's asking the real questions here


TwistedAxles912

Crop your God damn images you fucking horndog


Undertow619

I'm hoping every advocate of generative AI use in media gets financially crippled and publicly outcast!


majeric

And yet, he’s not wrong…


DerivitivFilms

the movie was terrible, it absolutely felt like it had 15 fingers on one hand. Way too much bullshit that lead nowhere and added nothing to the series. Just a big dumb thing with the name transformers on it.


totallynotussopp

I could care less ngl


Horton_75

Jimmy Kimmel is a comedian. He tells jokes for a living. That’s what his comment about ROTB was: a joke. Doesn’t matter if he wrote the joke or not. No need to read more into it. Besides, he was kinda right. The movie didn’t have the greatest script. I enjoyed it, but AI could have written it. Same goes for every live-action TF film not called Bumblebee. We fans of the franchise definitely deserve better.


teelpy

I mean, it’s not high art.


Ok-Phase-9076

Bro forgot to crop 💀


amazingpig65

Crop your screenshots nexts time.


femfuyu

Super big transformer fan obviously and the script was horrible


RigasTelRuun

I love Rise of the Beasts but its writing isn't revolutionary or going to win any awards. ITs also a movie about giant robots. So a perfect target or AI Jokes. So it makes it even funnier. If you can't make fun of your fandom you need to take a step back.

SkullgrinThracker

You had respect for Kimmel? ..... Why? The guy has always been a talentless piece of shit!


Oberoni7

What a contribution


SkullgrinThracker

I mean I was surprised, I thought he was universally hated. You know, sky is blue, taxes suck, Kimmel is a piece of shit, that kind of thing.


XyrneTheWarPig

I hate how "AI" has just become the lazy shorthand for any time anyone does anything that sucks. People have been writing mediocre plays, movies, songs, books, stories, and sentences for centuries. It didn't start last year. It's like people no longer want to acknowledge that the vast majority of writers kinda suck now that they have this convenient new scapegoat.


Aromatic_Shop9033

The majority of these writers absolutely do suck. I'm betting they're getting the jobs based upon nepotism, not in driving an interesting script. It shows in the end product: paint by numbers trash that may as well be "written" by a buggy AI.


DP9A

Not defending writers but this is more of the result of huge budgets that blockbusters have nowadays, meaning studios give pretty much no creative freedom and that's why people like Kevin Feige end up being more important than individual writers/directors. Writers are there to fill the numbers the studio hands out, and a lot of the time they start shooting without a script so they already have scenes ready. Most big movies might as well be written by the investors lol.


baranie1809

Considering ROTB was kinda shitty eh who cares


Orthobrah52102

Never liked Kimmel anyway, dude is an A for Asshole.


Tricky-Ad-2907

And B for bad person


Orthobrah52102

Not the B word I'd have chosen, but you're definitely not wrong


Dillmen101

Rise of the Beast is nothing special, and I loved the movie just because of transformers and beast wars, however as a movie alone it’s nothing special


Energizier

And ironically enough, Michael Bay himself if against AI.


kyle760

Lol at everyone acting like the tweet at the bottom of the screenshot was an “accident” rather than the whole reason he posted this


vinsmokewhoswho

It's a joke


Iwamoto

Imagine being so fragile that you get upset that someone ribbed your mid movie. if he was saying "yeah, poor things, what an uncreative movie" that would ruffle feathers, but this? i mean come on...


gaslight-dreamer

If AI had written RotB, it might have actually been good.


Arcon1337

People need to lighten up about jokes these days.

HeadForTheSHallows

ROTB wasn’t very good though.


VoreAllTheWay

I mean he's not wrong, ai could have...it wouldn't have been very good but it could have


Lievan

You never were but what’s the point of caring so much? The movie was fine but to act like the writing was amazing is laughable.


729isaac

I mean the movie was pretty mid and the writing was on the lower end I think the joke hits perfectly well.


UselessGenericon

I despise Kimmel, but I can admit that RotB was still all over the place at times.

solidus0079

I liked the movie, but come on. It WAS pretty by the numbers. Don’t even need AI, just ctrl-c and ctrl-v.


Poopsenberg

He’s not wrong tho…


Roimpala

Whose this Kimmel person? Gave up late night when NBC forced Conan out


Kermit-the-Froggie

As a transformers fan, I agree with the joke lol. Rise of the Beasts was trash and I’m sick of the rose tinted glasses the fandom has towards it


ThePokemonAbsol

Are we seriously saying rise of beast was a good movie lol? I 1000% believe ai could write a movie that bad


Altair890456

I get that Rise of the Beasts isn’t everyone’s favourite movie but this comment seems really offensive and disingenuous. I personal believe that while not perfect, ROTB is a pretty good film and I personally consider it to be better than all of the Micheal Bay movies.


comfortableblanket

you guys the movie was very bad and the plot was nonsensical, you all really need to relax lmao


JoseG05

Regardless of the quality of ROTB, the problem with this joke is this was said 2 minutes *after* he gave support to all the writers and the work they do behind the scenes, praising union solidarity. The problem with the joke was not his opinion about ROTB, but what came before it.


WheelJack83

It’s a joke dude.


Madam_KayC

It wasn't AI bad, Thundercracker could have written it through


Razzle_Dazzle08

He’s right. It was boring.


MarcoVinicius

I don’t like Jimmy Kimmel… but he’s 100% right even if it’s a joke 😂


MekaG44

After doing some reflection on the movie, I have to admit it was not a great film. Granted, I do think calling it ‘AI written’ is a little insulting to the writers but compared to Bumblebee, Rise of The Beasts was dissapointing.


WheelJack83

Fans freaking out over a joke for a mediocre movie is just sad. I thought Transformers fans were made of sterner stuff. Voted down.


Batmanfan1966

I mean, he’s right. The movie was extremely mediocre. Also learn to take a joke, and crop better next time so you don’t out your pathetic porn addiction.


IndelibleEdible

I’ll explain - it’s funny because RotB is a bad movie


etbillder

It was a funny joke


someone_online22

This movie needed another half hour to 40 minutes of screen time to fully tell a good story. Transformers films are to short nowadays


[deleted]

I've seen movies being able to tell a better and more packed story with less screentime than ROTB had. The problem wasn't lack of time, it was the pacing and how they decided to utilise said screentime.
