As much as I'd hate to admit it, I have to agree with him about the blockiness. Maybe not the fake part, but the boring part. Just wished he did something a little more terrestrial.

Im with Bay 100% 30ft blocky robots would be boring and unrealistic, I think a 1000 parts is much more visually impressive and stunning to see in a movie.
And not showing too much in the trailers is pretty smart, you dont want all the action of a movie to be shown in just the trailer

WTF is with this thing about being able to watch the video if you live outside the US?! Seriously! WTF? And it's not just MTV. CN and NBC won't let so watch episodes on their sites too. This really pisses me off! Why is this?

I figure it's because they don't want to cut the video 400 different ways to accompany different censorship laws in different countries.

I'm in New Zealand and I could see it.
Anyway, I'm glad he's handling it tbh. I could have all gone so wrong if a "big fan" of the show had done it instead. I'll always remember Danny Cannon waxing on about how much of a Judge Dredd fan he was blah blah blah and he get's the gig directing it and stuffs it up. A bit of distance is sometimes what's needed.
The thing that confuses me is when he says fans hated the stripes on Prime?? No, we hate the flames but it's done now, so...
Overall a pretty good interview.
