i was going to make a joke about them but not sure anyone would remember.
It is kind of amazing the halo effect Kevin Feige has had on the industry as a whole. The guy helped to redefine what the word "franchise" means. For better or for worse.
so many of these mothafuckas end up on the roof of your house, never to be seen again
Movie studios. Stop it. You're not going to create a "cinematic universe" that's successful like Marvel's. You just aren't.
WB actually has the IP to possibly pull it off. But this and the Universal Monsters shared universe... yeah, no.
Not really. It all depends on the execution. The real issue is all of these different studios simply chasing after the success of Marvel. Forcing concepts into this relatively new paradigm that don't work or are just simply....dumb.cinematic universes are a cancer.
.The only thing that could justify Bayformers
Yup. Never mind the depth of their studio owned IP such as DC, Harry Potter and the Hanna Barbera catalouge to name a few they even own former 80's franchise heavyweights like Thundercats.
Warners also have licensed stuff like Minecraft which if, and I do mean IF, handled right could be a huge franchise for them.
Dragon Flyz gotta be right around the corner

I'm still baffled that Universal would try and launch a cinematic universe based on a group of public domain characters.
Rom and Micronauts... wrong cinematic universe.
Who did Centurions?
This makes no sense at all. Transformers is an A-List Hasbro brand, but everything else listed there is B-Tier or C-Tier at best. No one cares about those properties.
G.I. Joe vs. Transformers is the only Hasbro crossover that makes any sense, and it isn't even mentioned.
GI Joe sequel was garbage
* TFP was going to lead into a massive Avengers style Unit: E crossover to jumpstart the other brands participating. Ratchet and Fowler from TFP; Duke from GI Joe; Synergy from Jem and the Holograms; Princess Lollipop from Candyland; also characters from MASK, Stretch Armstrong, Micronauts, Sectaurs, Primordia (the renamed Inhumanoids) and more.
Well marvel was able to make lower tier stuff like thor, guardians of the galaxy, and iron man huge without xmen or spiderman.
Yo, Hasbro, where the Ponies at? If you gonna mash everything in, do it properly.
People are joking about getting My Little Pony involved, but ironically, it is actually the Hasbro franchise best set up for a crossover like this, since it already has dimensional travel established.
Why is "film studio" in quotes
Paramount release the fewest number of films out of all the big studios and the vast majority of the stuff they produce and release themselves is utter fucking garbage.
They are a far, far cry from the studio that made Godfather and Chinatown. At least Sony still has Sony Pictures Classics.
