For Michael Bay, today is a totally great day to be Michael Bay. »

SHOCKING news: As reported by Michael Bay, a recent screening of the new Michael Bay movie which included Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay went great! Not only did the director of Crystal Skull find Michael Bay’s movie to be “awesome”, but in Michael Bay’s opinion, Spielberg might even feel that the movie is perhaps Michael [...]

Michael Bay doesn’t dare throw down with Mickey like he did with McG. »

Seriously? This peculiar Mickey Mouse toy, in all of its obscurely-motivated, cross-promotional, outright oddballness, makes more sense to me than anything that happened in Michael Bay’s Transformers.If 2009’s Transformers: Revenge of the Idiotic Plot Contrivances ends up having anything as cleanly-designed and simply recognizable as Mickey here, I promise to throw away all the “Michael [...]

Michael Bay, why must you destroy everything that I love? »

I had planned to write nothing on this site about next summer’s crapquel Transformers: Rise of the Bile. After all, my one-blog army that took on Michael Bay and the Geekformers in 2007 had surprisingly little impact on that movie’s box office results, so I had begun to think that the Allspark-like power of my [...]

Updated: the Blogophone game took a turn for the surreal. »

Remember a few weeks ago when I suggested a new bloguverse game/meme/time-waster called Blogophone? The concept was to work like this: 1) I create a message and tag it to a single blogger. 2) That blogger interprets my message and repeats it on their site, changed or not. 3) The second blogger sends the message [...]

Bashing Michael Bay is the right of all sentient bloggers. »

I was pretty much going to leave Michael Bay and his idiotic Transformers movie alone for a while after getting it off my chest yesterday, but now I come across Transformers: The Abridged Script at the wonderfully acerbic The Editing Room blog where movies are boiled down to their most sarcastic essentials and reprinted in [...]
