The Blaze Radio Network. On Demand. The Jeff Fisher Show. Saturday mornings, 9 to noon Eastern. On the Blaze Radio Network. Now, last week was the opening weekend of Transformers. I went to see it on Friday night. And I talked about it a little bit on the Saturday broadcast last week.

And I didn't bring in my Transformer expert, my son Maximus, to read. review the movie. So in the last past week, I mean, the movie has dropped huge, a huge, 82% drop from Friday to Friday, which is almost unheard of. So, I mean, it clicked off. It's going to be lucky to make, you know, 240 million. The reviews were horrible for it. I will say that my personal in-home transformer expert,

who has graced us with his presence today. Hello. Maximus Fisher has not talked a lot about it in the house. Now, granted, they don't let me hang around the house much, so I mean, I try to, I'm only there a little while from time to time in the evening. But normally he's blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, about Transformers. And I haven't heard much from you about this latest movie.

So do you, did you like it? Yes, I very much enjoyed it. In my opinion, it was a really good movie. Okay. Now, I know that your bias towards transformers in and of itself, but all the reviews, two and a half hours, machines, fighting machines, machines, other things just blowing up, a little wishy-washy story. What did you like most about it? personally I did like having the new characters show up and the old ones showing up as well like

Megatron it was cool seeing him and Barricade was cool too it was cool seeing Barricade again did you enjoy Anthony Hopkins he was really good in the movie yes did you enjoy how they brought history how they tried to bring history back in with the Transformers yes I did as far as King Arthur yes that was actually really cool I know my mom liked it because she's a big fan of King Arthur's stuff. Don't let that cloud your judgment. I'm not. Okay.

Don't let that. Don't. All right. So I'm looking at the rating of the Transformers movie, and this one appears to be darn near the worst, according to all the record books. So I'm looking at this ranking and see if you agree with this. Okay. All right.

The Transformers' movies. The Transformers Age of Extinction is number five. Or worse to best. All right? Mm-hmm. then Revenge of the Fallen, right, then Dark of the Moon, we're getting better,

then the regular first Transformers, and then number one would be Transformers the animated movie. Now, I loved the Transformers animated movie from 1986. That one is great. In my opinion, it's a classic, but...

That's why we have you here for your opinion. My opinion is I do not agree with that list. I love all the Transformers movies, but worst to best, that would not be my list. Really? What would you say it would be the best? The best one. If we're just going to live action movies,

it would definitely be Age of Extinction for me. Really? I loved the last night. Don't get me wrong, but I loved Age of Extinction. I think you agreed with it. with most of the people. This last one's pretty much stunk. No, it didn't.

This one, it was good. I liked it. I'm not lying. I'm definitely getting it on Blu-ray release day if I can. Are you? Yes. Are you definitely getting a job to pay for that? I have money.

All right, I'm just mess with you. I'm just mess with you. So number one is? The number one for me, age of extinction, but I would rank the original 1986 movie a little higher than that just because of how classic it is but if we're going just the live actions

it would be age of extinction for me and then this last one this last movie that we just saw last weekend that has dropped got horrible reviews it's the worst one ever what's Michael Bay thinking it's all confused nothing but blown up nothing there

is that the last one is that the last on the list? no matter what? No, not for me. What's the last one? The last one on the list for me, that's a tough one. I think... That's why I'm asking you.

I'm not sure. Because if I rank the live action movies just in general, from best to worst... Yeah, what's the worst? Or for me, it would be best to least best. How I would go. It would be Age of Extinction.

Transformers won. Then I think... Revenge of the Fallen and then Dark of the Moon. I love Dark of the Moon. I will binge all those movies in like a day if I could. I would.

Except you can't do that because then you wouldn't have a job. Oh wait. I've done it before.
