Or to rephrase your question KnightConvoy, what would the movies be like without Bay?

We'll get that answer in the next movie. Hopefully it will actually have Transformers in the main cast.

 

I love how in the Bay version, Cliffjumper becomes the star.

 

First thing that came to mind:

Michael Bay: "Besides, who would you be without me, franchise?"
*epic Jablonsky beat*
Transformers Franchise: "Time to find out."

 

I would probably not be watching it. Shit, just last week I was watching TFP #23 in awe, then after it was over, I turned on DOTM, 10 minutes I made it and turned it off and re-ran TFP #23 again. 

 

All Bay-bashing aside, if he was the project director, i can see them replacing Arcee, and maybe having the US military be more involved, it's hard to say because everything Michael directs is far from kid-friendly & he would have to fall pretty far to be directing an animated show for children.

 

Unicron would probably have giant wrecking balls.

And Arcee would have breastplates the size of Mars.

 

Bay being involved with Prime is too horrible to contemplate...

 

Regardless of quality, many more members would immediately hate 'Prime' if Bay had anything at all to do with it. Sad, really.

 

i can't really imagine... Hehehe..  

 

Hey, I objectively judge the movies for what I got. A lot of T & A and explosions is pretty much it. Yeah I enjoyed those things but I wanted a movie about the Transformers. That is not what Bay wanted to make.

I'm over simplifying things but that's the gist of it. I won't ever deny that his movies were a good thing. I just won't ever admit they enriched the franchise (besides bringing in more people).

 

Change the thread title to: baybashers

 

Fans: you increased the popularity of transformers but the next generation won't include you!
Michael Bay: They will include me! They always include me!
Fans: On November 2X, 2010, when Transformers Prime comes out, you will be nothing, but someone people hate so much, they don't pay attention to your film plot and make connections to 9/11 and the Holocaust, you Nazi.
Michael: RAWR EXPIC EXPLOSIONS RAWR!

PS: Michael, if you read this, please don't hate on me. I'm a huge fan of yours just following the crowd of haters due to peer pressure.

 

Obviously snipped...that was the funniest thing I've read in here in a looooonnnnggggg time.          

You should post that or something like it in our Funnies or Fan Fiction  

 

Not a bad idea!

 

Optimus Prime would have tried to kill everybody by now, and 9/10 fans would have stopped watching after the first five episodes.

 

That as sooo funny, I just turned into a green smiley face and started laughing sooo hard I started hitting my friend with a sign. It looked like this 

 

Every episode would end with the silhouette of a chopper flying towards the sunset.

No matter what time of day it is.

Even if it's night.

Even if there are no choppers.

Even if there is no sun.

 

Good Lord, I missed Vector Squidma's post when skimming over the thread earlier - that stuff is  

Bravo, sir. Bravo.

 

  @ this post.

Also, Vector Squidma now has to write Bay-fied versions of every TFP episode. The Internet demands it.

 

I'd like to see his take on Bay Animated and Bay Beast Wars...
