The original Transformers movie from 1986 was Epic on so many levels.
First there was the story, they fucking killed Prime in the first 20 minutes. It made an entire generation of little boys cry and I still get misty eyed when it happens, you have a heart of stone if you dont.
The animation was super smooth and vibrant, it was everything that you wanted a Transformers movie to be.
The soundtrack...nothing but 80's guitar rock, hair metal, and fast drums that kicked you in the ass, got you pumped up and asking for more, it was amazing, it fit perfectly and there was one song that stood out above the rest.
Stan Bush - The Touch
It was inspiring in a cheesy way, it was kid friendly and parent approved and it just worked with the story. So when I heard that this song was going to be in the new movie I thought, hellz yeah. Maybe they will make it one of the songs that bumblebee uses to talk with, since for some reason his voice box is still broken, or maybe they will use it as an inside joke like they did with GnR in Terminator.
Nope, they are using it in the main soundtrack, WOOOOOOO...wait...whats the catch? Yeah, there is a catch, it has been nu-metalized. It has been updated, modified and hipped up...and they fucked it up royally. So allow me to show you the next part in the continuing bastardization and raping of my childhood.
Im sorry children of the 80s.
Michael Bay is a bad bad man.
What are they doing to my childhood?
