    Your suspicion is unfounded. If I was him, I'd laugh it off and go make love to a super model...

    ...and then post a video of it on AICN.

    But seriously, no one forced him to read AICN and no one should take flak on a message board seriously. Even if there was a real threat, there are appropriate channels to deal with that. Responding to their taunts only makes them taunt louder, and losing your cool makes you appear weak.

    People were told over and over again that Megatron's design was unrepresentative (and indeed all the designs).

    They weren't.

    Pretty sure they were told that it wasn't finished / final, and it wasn't.

    In other news, yes AICN is like some kind of sewerage tank where the stupidest people on the planet hang out.

    I said script, SCRIPT SCRIPT. That's what Bay talks about and is what I was talking about. Being told one thing, ignoring it and going one's own sweet way is a ludicrous way of critiquing a film.

    So what the hell has "Megatron" got to do with anything (besides being one of your many bug-bears that needs continual expression)? And you're wrong - We we're told they weren't "final"... worlds away from what you chose to read intp things.

    Then your a better person than I.
    Being told "your an idiot", "your scum", "your raping my childhood", "you deserve to die", "you should be murdered" over and over and over would penetrate my armour pretty quickly.

    Bay's no level-headed PR man - He's a movie director. Why should he react any differently to such stuff? Maybe, god-forbid, it actual hurts him even to be told such things are being said, never mind reading them himself.

    Michael Bay is an emo mecha fan? Seriously... that's so wrong... that just hurts my head.

    I hope Megatron talks with a lisp... and a deep, deep gay baritone.

    Poor Bay.

    It sucks when you work your ass off and all you hear is complaints.
    He already has Spielberg riding his ass and I bet no one on the net know's just how stressful that can be.

    Bay is just stupid, and everyone else knows everything

    Bay's completely, 100% justified in his reaction. People have done nothing but nit-pick his every move and word, and are condemning his project before even seeing the FINAL CUT.

    It's ridiculous, people. If I were in Bay's position, as a fellow artist/filmaker, I'd be saying the same damn thing.

    So at 38 hours a frame and less than 100 days to go, that means that they can only produce 1 minute and a half of footage between now and then, hehehe. Kidding, they must have a render farm from hell down there.

    Anyway, good for him for talking shit about Harry Ball's talk-backers. They're a bunch of hippies who just want to stand out to their buddies by talking bad about a movie. It makes them look intelligent and cultured.

    For those talking about 300, learn to read, he said top movies of the SUMMER. 300 came out in the WINTER...geez.

    And I'm betting on the TF movie doing far better than FF and Die Hard anyways.

    Now I'll be curious what the big rewrite in the end of the movie script will be. Because in the trailer there were scenes that were 100% from the early leaked script's end (such as the soldier guy (I never remember the names) sliding under the legs of you-know-who with a motorcycle. I doubt we'll see any stunning changes. But maybe they changed the script and decided to kill off someone else instead of ****? With the developement they Bots/Cons are getting in the script, I couldn't even care if they killed off the whole cast at the end, like in DW's first GI Joe crossover.


    And who ever said to Bay we fans think the action scenes in this movie will be too few? It's gonna be a "Bay action movie", it's going to have some really gorgeus action scenes, that I was always sure of and never complained about. What we rather wanted was character development for the TFs instead of using them as robotic versions of the Aliens for Independence day. :(
