Those Transformers movies confuse me. Literally nobody asked for them to be 3 hours long, they don't work, and they do nothing at ALL to justify the running time. THOSE movies would absolutely be much, MUCH better if they were trimmed down to 90 minutes. They'd still be awful, but at least you wouldn't feel like NEVER watching a movie again once they were over with.
I'm convinced those movies being never-ending is all part of Bay's "F*** You, I do whatever I want and it makes a billion, despite all logic" thing that he does. "You say these movies are loud, stupid, and never-ending? OK... they're gonna be Louder, Dumber, and they're gonna keep getting longer! Watch the box office skyrocket, ya f***in' nerds!"" And it works.
