How can we lose so much more than we had before

Don't forget that Michael Bay also did that movie 13 hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi. Dunno if it's any good. I just know my parents liked it but they literally went to see it because they hate Hillary Clinton :shrug:

The Island is the best Michael Bay movie.

A lot of that is because he completely ripped it off from a 1970s B movie. Dreamworks had to pay "an undisclosed seven-figure sum" to the creators of "Parts: The Clonus Horror"

It had the extraordinary hack frauds dynamic duo Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci as writers. Of course it is plagiarised.

The Island was boring which is surprising for a Bay film. Normally you will be pissed off with his assault. Here it was just nothing. Fun fact he recycled a special effects shot from Transformers.

One thing is for sure is that to his credit Bay doesn't pretend he is an artist of any pedigree and gives no fucks. If you hire Bay, you are getting Michael loving Bay and if you don't like it you shouldn't have hired him like an idiot. Transformers is a natural consequence of that. It's like when John Woo did Mission Impossible 2, you got John loving Woo. neither is going to listen to the studio.

The star war is so bad that George Lucas has to save it

At least I know what people are talking about with Star Wars.

All I remember form Star Trek was one of the movies where they were in a prison camp and an alien started a fight with someone, and so they kicked his knees, but then the knees were his genitals and I was just a kid and was like, "how the gently caress would THAT work?!"

It’s interesting seeing Zoomers just discovering movies like Face/Off (and other pre-Matrix attempts to bring Hong Kong-style action to the US) and thinking that we all just went collectively insane in the mid-90s.

And had as grown up haircut. It's been his aesthetic since then.


Also he has some beef with Jean Claude Van Damme where JCVD tried to bait him into attacking him, and he obliged

I'm torn on Pain and Gain because on one hand it is mildly entertaining

On the other it's Bay looking at details of the real life kidnapping, extortion, torture, murder and butchering of several victims and going "haha, lets make a funny movie about these goofs"


I mean doesn't this sound hilarious?

"On the 25th of May 1995, after several meetings, Doorbal killed Griga during a fight at his apartment.The gang planned to bring Griga back to a warehouse where they could begin to extort him as they had Schiller; however, they were frustrated in their plan when they accidentally killed the victim early. Krisztina Furton, Griga's girlfriend, was also at the apartment talking to Lugo in a separate room to Doorbal and Griga. After witnessing her partner murdered, she was injected with Rompun - a horse tranquilliser - by Lugo. The gang began to attempt to extract information from Furton regarding the codes which would grant entry into Griga's home, whilst continuing to inject her with Rompun. After this, Furton stopped supplying them with information. A third dose of tranquilliser was administered, resulting in her death.

The next day – May 26, 1995 – Griga's body was concealed in Marc Schiller's stolen couch and Furton's body into a U-Haul clothing box. Both were placed into the back of a van and Delgado, Lugo and Doorbal drove to Lugo's Hialeah warehouse. It was here that the gang dismembered and disposed of the bodies of Griga and Furton, with Doorbal doing most of the work."

I think everyone confuses ConAir for a Michael Bay film because Jerry Bruckheimer produced it, and there was an almost gradient-like transition over three decades from Bruckheimer being the biggest name in blockbuster schlock action to Michael Bay taking that title. ConAir is basically in the dead-center of that transition.
