Have you seen the newest trailer for Transformers? It’s unbelievable. Not in the ultra-cool, Gen X/Y connotation of the word, but rather, “What the hell is Michael Bay thinking?” Precisely 17 seconds into the first real glimpse of the 80’s cartoon series-turned-another-movie we find Sam Witwicky, played by teen actor Shia LaBeouf (French for “No Real Career”), wearing a vintage The Strokes band t-shirt. I understand the movie’s fictionally centered around killer robots that morph into vehicles, but believing anyone still enjoys The Strokes enough to don the one hit wonders’ apparel six years after their debut is bovine fecal debris.
Michael Bay, why not sport a band with some real talent like Scissor Sisters or The Darkness? Either way, we know your too busy stroking your ego to remove Sam’s anachronistic apparel. That’s where C&V comes in. We decided to change the movie’s setting from 2007 to the correct year, 2001, when those “Last Night“-singing hacks scratched their nails on the chalkboard of America. Here’s what the above screenshot should look like. Take note Mr. Bay.

You sir are a moron.
Proof:
Some awards (2006):
Won: NME Awards – Best International Band
Nominated: MTV Europe Music Awards – Best Rock Band
Meaning:
1. They are still an active band
2. They are quite successful
Do some research before spewing shit like this.
