Michael Bay: Megan Fox "Says Some Very Ridiculous Things"

Image...
Megan Fox slammed Transformers director Michael Bay for focusing more on special effects than acting, but he doesn't mind.

"Well, that's Megan Fox for you," Bay tell the Wall Street Journal. "She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do.

"Nick Cage wasn't a big actor when I cast him, nor was Ben Affleck before I put him in Armageddon. Shia LaBeouf wasn't a big movie star before he did Transformers -- and then he exploded. Not to mention Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, from Bad Boys," he points out.

    I read the whole article and Michael Bay has some rly big ego. She was correct, that movie had no acting in it, less than the first movie. She said the movie put her in the job, so why did he need to make a lil list of actors.

    yeah mike you found them and helped their careers, but you should be worried about finding someone to help your movies not suck.

    Its not like Megan Fox is wrong. Everyone knows that if it wasnt for the green screen and powerful CGI Micheal Bay would be a nobody and Tranformers wouldnt have made a dime. Personally i am growing numb to movies that are so CGI and animation heavy that you dont even notice the actors. And who the fuck does Micheal Bay think he is?
    He actually tried to take credit for Will Smith, Ben Affleck, and Nick Cage? Seriously Micheal?
    Guess you never heard of movies called Six Degrees of Seperation, Good Will Hunting, or Moonstruck?

    you can see bay's level of maturity in his responses. this actually makes me like megan fox more and bay even less (if that's possible). bay has never been a good director because good directors have to be able to do it all, not just coordinate elaborate sfx and vfx. but his self-congratulatory attitude and narcissism make him a less than desirable human being.

    best thing here would have been for him to agree that he was not focusing all of his attention on the actors but rather on the action sequences...

    I am tired of hollywood selling me the same shit over and over again. It doesn't matter how good of a cook you are if the recipe sucks.

    Wow! If Michael Bay tells me that I have a lot of growing to do.. Michael Bay, the most pre pubescent-mind director of the history of moving pictures tells me that... I don’t know how to feel.

    And he’s right about actors. What is Ben Affleck Oscar compared to Armageddon? Nothing! Leaving Las Vegas? I don’t know that movie.

    "People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting."

    is he serious?
    a movie is NOTHING without good actors.
    any movie.

    and I have zero interest to see either Transformers films.

    yesindeed! that makes so much sense, thank you!

    "People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting."

    THAT'S why Shia is in the movie!

    It all makes sense now...

    At least he didn't blame Megan Fox's "toe thumbs" as the reason for all the special effects. I would have. ;P

    The movies I like that Michael Bay directed are The Rock, The Island, and Armageddon. But I'm not into very computer animated movies and I don't like Shia LaBeouf movies either, so Transformers is a crappy combination.
