A Critics Lounge

This’ll be a lounge where we can just make fun of critics and reviews and even review and criticize stuff yourselves!

Rules:
1: Nothing inappropriate
2: It’s also for getting away with opinions (what it means is everyone has different opinions and this topic can be used to get away from backlash)
3: Arguments ok, but not to the point where it gets out of hand (and could potentially ruin friendships)
4: No making fun of flowlab critics or devs.
Aside from these, go crazy.

Is this 5 out of 5 or 5 out of 10?

5 out of 10 which stinks because that means they call the movie mediocre. If you watch their video review, it’s even worse

(I forgor to mention: We ourselves can review and criticize other things, but only product, film, or game wise, but we can mostly just talk about stuff like how ign or rotten tomatoes is out of touch)

IGN sucks

I looked at their review video and they thought that the plot was “really hampered by trying to be a fetch quest and a razor-thin political conspiracy”.

Mostly Elita

They called out Elita’s character for being one of those Mary Sues which makes me confused since it took them so long to realize what a Mary Sue was, but they still aren’t able to recognize one since Elita actually had moments that made her an interesting character mainly when she wanted to report Orion and D-16 for breaking into a train just so she could gain back her rank.

Mostly D-16

I especially got confused when they were talking about D-16, (Megatron) since it felt like they thought it was supposed to be mainly about him when talking about plot in the beginning and then describing Orian’s relationship with him immediately afterward.

They even called out the animation style for being too fast-paced (which ain’t a surprise since they couldn’t handle a sonic game)

ign rated sonic x shadow gens 8.5 out of 10. that game is a 10 out of 10! (in my opinion anyway)

Either way, that’s about as good as it will get for the new modern games + they gave mario and luigi brothership a 5/10 but their gameplay made it worse

My only complaint on the movie was mostly the fact that it was aimed at families and younger audience, plus the advertising of it prior release didn’t do much justice since it didn’t really show much on the actual movie other than goofy side scenes.

The movie itself was very good and was probably one of the best movies of that year. There were scenes that were kind of dark and showed the depressing side of this Transformers universe.
I just wished they used some Stan Bush songs like from the original 1986 movie, that would have been the peak of humanity.

The trailers made it look like just another fun, family movie when in reality, CINEMA. I give praise to that kind of stuff though. Plus, a little Linkin Park would’ve been nice too since a little homage from the live-action stuff wouldn’t hurt.

I thought the movie was pretty good. Sure there were a couple of dumb spots, but critics were definitely a bit harsh

Yo. I just watched Moana 2, but not exactly understanding lots of the hate around it. Sure it didn’t exactly feel like the right sequel for it, but what the heck is everybody mad about

What stinks is that lots of the youtubers I saw who said it stunk sourced their argument from rotten tomatoes who gave it like a 60 or something (which isn’t a bad score) and that’s it. It’s not a bad source but it shouldn’t be your ONLY one

I’d say it’s way too far from perfect. The only good qualities are the 100% scores
