RIP Robert Orci ‘Star Trek’, ‘Transformers’ & ‘Hawaii Five-0’ Writer-Producer

[Barkworm]

The list of his theatric work is horrible.

I know this guy wasn't exactly popular. Most of his movies are terrible and he can largely be blamed for making Transformers, Spider-Man, Mission Impossible, Star Trek, Watchmen, Universal Horror and Ender's game worse franchises than they used to be.

But I'm kind of surprised that just about nobody tries to seem sad for him and almost seem happy that he's gone. At least I can say Transformers Prime, the Transformers cartoon he produced, was OK.

OMG I'm so glad you wrote this, given the observations here. I mean.... omfg talk about timely evidence.

Once again, to combat the interpretations of clown world I'll say that we should have some degree of respect for anyone that dies - it's something that we are all going to have to face. But for f's sake you want people to emulate "sorrow" like a fifth grader without any emotional intelligence does about a random death because they don't know what else to do about it beyond acting sad.

Okay? Feigning "sadness" over every death isn't what "good people" do - it's what stunted people do. It's what psychopaths do. If you feel it you feel it, if you don't you don't. Scott Weiland's music impacted my life. I felt like $#!( when he died. Robert Orci didn't impact my life and he widely diminished franchises he touched. But it's ashame he died so young and I respect that he was part of pop culture that I know about, but no I'm not sad. OMFG.
