D'awww, was that a compliment?

I missed you in the football thread. Okay, there, I said it.

[Ouch!]

Someone actually said a Michael Bay film was better than any of the Bourne movies? Michael Bay's films could only be compared to that series in the same sentence if you were talking about the blood stained excrement that a Bourne film passed after being forced to sit through a Michael Bay movie... And even then it would be a long, complicated sentence.

Don't take the quote out of context. The Bourne films are far and away better than anything Michael Bay has done, but the way the action sequences (barring maybe the car chases) are shot are incoherent messes.

[Pheesh]

I don't care, he beats the out of a guy with a rolled up magazine AND a pen.

Say what you will about the lack of plot in a Michael Bay film, but the man knows how to direct actions scenes. That's a talent sorely lacking in Hollywood right now, replaced by shaking cameras and general incoherence.

Not really. Action films are easy to market. They pretty much direct and produce themselves. Especially if they are action franchises starring bankable people like Arnold.

[Loony BoB]

I just don't get why anyone is comparing giant robots that turn into cars to vaguely realistic supposed "action" movies. It's like saying that True Lies should have had serious acting and less comedy. I mean, what? They're not even close to the same. I would say that Transformers is an action-comedy while Bourne/TDK are action-drama. One is there for fun, the other is for serious. Perhaps some people here are just too serious about their movies to be prepared for fun.

Having said that, Michael Bay is not an actor that I would want to direct action-drama movies. Pearl Harbour? Urgh. Likewise, though, I don't believe that the directors of the great movies of our time would have done that much better with Transformers. Transformers aren't about insane twists and awesome themes and Oscar-winning actors. It's about big explosions, awesome special effects and hotties.

Waiting for Shiny to reply to thread.

And rather cringeworthy racial stereotypes. Still they've ditched Megan Fox so it's not all bad!
