This is Michael Bay's directing style perfectly stated


Add in that he thinks people are [frick]ing sheep and no matter what crap he puts out we will go see it.

“They love to hate and I don’t care; let them hate,” he told MTV’s Josh Horowitz. “They’re still going to see the movie! I think it’s good to get a little tension. Very good.” From Michael Bay himself so ya Michael Bay can go suck a dick and die for all I care because I will never see one of his movies again.

Oh for the love of god really I know you like to troll but come on when you start throwing around crap like TF4 is along the lines as Terminator 2 you just look like a fool. This is bad trolling when you say things no one can actually believe.

@Jollem

Really I don't care if you like TF4 but to really say it is on the same lines as Terminator 2 that is just insulting to Terminator 2. Terminator 2 is easily one of the greatest action movies of all time up there with Robocop 1987, Die Hard, or Predator. None of Michael Bay's movie come to match those guys especially not his Transformers movies.

@Jollem

You are more than welcome to have your opinions. But you should have known someone would have jumped down your throat for the Terminator 2 comment lol

I however, disagree with you, but I'm glad that you are so objective about the film. It's refreshing to see people like what they like and not be ashamed of it.

Kudos to you, sir.

@Iron

It's not that he actually believes it, it's that it gets him attention. He will tell you that Cap 2 and GotG were the worst movies of the year, while TASM2 and TMNT were the best.

He's a contrarian, and he loves the attention.

AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 10:51 PM
But the site wouldn't be the same without him, come here Jollem, so cute
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 10:55 PM
See what you mean? You compared Transformers 4 to Terminator 2 without even giving any details. You were just asking for attention yet again. It IS cute though
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 10:57 PM
Hey, Avatar was like Blade Runner! You don't agree? Well then you just are a hater! [frick] details!

"t4 was along the lines of terminator 2"

Its like saying Avenger was along the line of Terminator 2. That's an insult to Terminator 2.

Jollem doesn't like to get into arguments with me, because he loops points around and gets stuck. Then says that I'm a meanie. No worries Jollem, I'll leave you alone
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 11:03 PM
That's the problem Jollem, you can NEVER explain your opinion. You throw out 1-liners to antagonize others, then put up your imaginary defense mechanisms. I'm harassing you right now? LOL I'm posting logical points on a website, but I'm just a meanie, right?
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 11:04 PM
Anyways, I'm the only person that doesn't like Michael Bay on this forum obviously..........oh wait

"You throw out 1-liners to antagonize others"

Shhhh... some people are just sensitive
AsgardianHobo
AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 11:12 PM
You can like something all you want, but if you compare this to Terminator 2, maybe you could elaborate a LITTLE bit? Nah, that's not Jollem

Just like all little kids, I want to engage in some type of conversation. But like the true adult you are, you run for the hills at any type of confrontation.

AsgardianHobo - 9/24/2014, 11:22 PM
he's the master of what he does. t4 was along the lines of Godfather and others. a damn fun rollercoaster ride

Explain my point? [frick] you!

When I think of Michael Bay's "directing style", I'm reminded of what the Joker said in TDK:

"See, I'm a man of simple tastes. I like gunpowder...and dynamite...and gasoline! Do you know what all of these things have in common? They're cheap!"



And I, for one, enjoy talking with Jollem. He's just having fun (as we all should do). Sometimes, we have to let old grudges die.
