I think they should have gotten Ang Lee.
Transformers isn't some quirky art house flick, it's a mega huge summer blockbuster with tons of destruction, explosions, and huge robots.Originally Posted by Mr-K
Maybe you don't like action movies and that's why you don't have faith in Michael Bay, but Bad Boys 1 and 2, The Rock, and Armageddon tell me that Michael Bay will do a bang up job with this movie and give me the large amounts of explosions and robots that are needed to make this movie worthy of the Transformers name.

Michael Bay directed Pearl Harbor which automatically negates everything he has ever done that could have possibly been good.

That's complete non sense and you know it. I didn't like Pearl Harbor, actually, I hated Pearl Harbor, but that doesn't change the fact that Michael Bay is the master of everything that has to do with exploding and destruction in summer blockbusters.Originally Posted by Mr-K
Also, The Rock automatically negates any bad film he has ever done, and ever will do, because it was so fucking awesome. Believe.

Take out the sappy love story, Ben Affleck, and the drawn out plot. What you had was an awesome film of Pearl Harbor getting blasted. Other than that the movie sucked. Micheal Bay was clearly trying to go for that Titanic vibe and failed.

Look, I like explosions and shit too, but Michael Bay movies are just fucking goofy. They're so full of cliche and one liners that it's impossible to be taken seriously. Given, it's a movie about bitching transforming robots and giant explosions and shit, but Michael Bay has a tendency to take shit way too far to the point where it just becomes laughable.
Example, the end of Bad Boys 2 where they are crashing through that villiage in a hummer, it was silly. When he shoots the badguy, okay that's fine, but then he fucking explodes. Christ. Armageddon is another example of a movie that is just so incredibly dumbed down that it just makes my head want to explode. Again, I know, giant bitching transforming robots; but that doesn't mean the movie has to be retarded.
I liked Armageddon... It was a good pop corn movie.

That scene was actually ripped off from Jackie Chan's Police Story, which did it better and about 10 years earilier.Originally Posted by Mr-K
