Board 8 > I honestly do not get all the Michael Bay hate.

(+) Yeah! (+)

G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra stayed pretty true to the spirit of the comic, though I guess not so much so the cartoon. Not the best movie in the world, but it had it's moments.

Batman Begins was just awesome.

Transformers series was pretty good IMO. Sure, it wasn't as cartoony as the cartoons (lol?), 2 of them gave the humans far too much screen time, but I thought it gave the Transformers a nice transition to "modern" and the action scenes were really well done.

I used to play Skyrim but then I took a patch to the knee.

Transformers had more story to do with Shia LaDouche than the title characters. That's why I hate him.

He's hated more than he deserves, but he's still bad. Transformers was probably the best film he's directed, and it was pretty bad.
He's just... mediocre, at best.

G.I. Joe also was not directed or produced or written by Michael Bay.

I don't necessarily think it's hate, just a widespread acknowledgement that he just shoves as many explosions and shaky camera scenes to make his movies seem as cool as he can.


To a lot of people this automatically means hate because it feels like a cheap sell out.

I personally think Michael Bay's work peaked with Apocalypse Now.

The confusion may result from the fact that you don't actually know what movies Michael Bay has worked on.

Yeah... GI Joe and Batman had NOTHING to do with Michael Bay.

I did, however, enjoy his work on The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Groundhog Day was great. I think thats his best film.

The Rock was the best

You guys are crazy, his best work was when he made Lord of the Rings.

I like Michael Bay movies. They are terrible, but I like them anyway.

Despite all his great classics, I don't know what the **** he was thinking about with Catwoman
