So many haters, come on! Michael Bay is the man no one makes dumb fun movies like this guy. I love those kinds of silly, explos-i-thon movies because you go in turn your brain off and just have a good time he is pretty much in a genre of his own at this point. We should give this guy more credit we need dumb fun movies like his, because it helps to make the really good action movies all the more special.
This is actually one movie that doesn't warrant an apology; it is neither amazing nor horrific. It's middle of the road with a bunch of character actors doing their thing with a few good one liners. As appears to be the case with his movies, the score was a high point.
Apologise for Pearl Harbor, and perhaps makes the next Transformers movie better than TF1 and TF3. Then we're even.

Oh yeah he directed Pearl Harbor...that movie wasn't fast, it was slow and about 2 hours too long.
Wow, 16 weeks for a major production is actually crazy impressive. I mean, I really don't like his movies, but purely from a logistics standpoint it's astounding it wasn't worse.
DOOOOOON'T WAAAAAAAANAAAAAAAA CLOOOOOOOOSE MYYYY EYYYEEEEESS
DAMN STRAIGHT YOU SHOULD BE APOLOGISING!
Can't stand that song. Also, I love that NASA uses Armageddon as training material. Potential recruits have to spot as many mistakes as they can in the film, and there are loads.

See, I get the impressive that action and explosions isn't exactly why people hated Bayformers.Falsename said:
When you go into a movie called Transformers, using a preexisting IP about robots that transform into vehicles and battle each other with very little involvement from pesky squishy fleshy humans, you generally expect the movie to focus on said transforming robots. Not an awkward coming-of-age love story about a teenage boy and the girl he wants to impress by getting his own car. Who then mysteriously disappears in the third act to be replaced by another attractive girl who is inexplicably attracted to the bumbling male lead.
Granted, I never watched the third film because I literally can't remember a single thing that happened in the second, but yeah, the titular characters not being the actual main characters of the films has a little more to do with it than not being "an emotional drama", in my opinion.
OT: I've got nothing against Bay. I've seen worse directors than him, even if his movies do mostly have horrible scripts. They reach the same level of campy weirdness that probably would've been praised back in the 80's, to be honest. Or at least would've been regarded as "something fun to pass the time" rather than "THE WORST THING EVAR!!!!" like they are now.
Yes, that is quite stupid.
What is more stupid is that Bay also said that Guillhermo del Toro is ripping off Transformers by making Pacific Rim.
So a double facepalm should be in order

apologize for your racist robots and i'll consider seeing another one of your films, Mr. Ma Ba Spode! seriously, they were practically wearing blackface.
Even in singalong, Michael Bay manages to piss me off. I actually kind of liked Armageddon, although I haven't seen it in a very long time.
