Re: Transformer 4 running time.
Now, I haven't seen this movie, so take this with not a grain, but a chunk of salt. I'm a big fan of occasional mindless entertainment, I enjoy an action movie every once and a while, or a stupid comedy; but I hate being advertised to when I've already paid for the media I'm ingesting. The last thing I want to see when I've already paid $12 to see a movie is tons of blatant advertising filling up the screen, it's borderline offensive, and one of the main reason I don't watch these movies.
Then……don't watch them. Nobody is forcing you to watch said movie.
Use your 'voice' with your money and go spend it on some other movie or something else altogether.
By the way, if there's a movie that you think has a chance of being not-so-great…
No one said that you had to pay for it either.
There are ways to watch movies in the theater for free. (Yes, legally.)
Local television stations and radio stations will sometimes give away free movie tickets.
Not to mention, movie companies that are unsure about a film will have test screenings.
Various other companies have sneak previews of films before they are released.
Do some research online and look for this.^
Movies are cool, but free movies are even better.
