Transformers: Age of Extinction opens in ten days, so Screen Junkies have made a timely Honest Trailer to remind us of everything we love to hate about this franchise. They turn their brutal honesty towards Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, starting off strong with a sardonic warning screen cautioning us, “The following trailer contains scenes from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.” Well, I’m glad they warned us.
Check out the video above for an unflinching takedown of a movie from “the director most likely to masturbate to an explosion”, featuring the derpfaced Shia Labeouf, side characters nobody cares about, and Megan Fox, who “combines the looks of a professional porn star with the acting of an amateur porn star”. If you’re searching for battles that look like two junkyards having sex with each other, look no further.
We’ve already summarized our gripes with the franchise using a one-minute video, and other UPROXX writers have explained why Revenge of the Fallen sucks in particular, but it’s nice to have another site backing that up. Bonus points for incorporating Michael Bay’s awkward CES bailout. Did I say awkward? I meant awesome.
