I guess I get a kick out of Bay’s over-top “OH SHIT” drama.

He’s a great director, and the Rock was amazing and Armageddeon was OK at best (Sorry to offend, it’s not a bad movie, It’s that it takes so long to get to the excitement, as opposed to development, when action is all I want).

But Transformers is only one of the movies he has made where almost all the fighting takes place in the last 30 minutes or so. I expected continuous fighting throughout, since its Transformers, after all, but it was kind of stoic up until the end.

Jim defended him once in our class, but not really for the reasons I do. Jim claims Bay is an evil genius who takes advantage of stupid people by making films that pander to the generally stupid American public. Which is one way of defending him I guess, but kinda narrow to me.
