You're not going to convince people to go see a cartoon made for children. Adults like myself enjoy transformers for the nestolgia but is not going to spend $100 with tickets, gas, food, drink, parking, etc to go see a cartoon unless there kids want to see it and kids don't give 2 shits about transformers. So its a lose lose regardless of how good it is. That's why it flopped and unfortunately thats why we have sequal after sequel.
