This one is from Superheroype.

Q: I believe it was Don Murphy said you had no nostalgia for these Transformers – does that make it easier to make the film, like a doctor operating on a stranger versus a friend?
Bay: Listen, I'm a huge Transformer fan now, I can officially say I've probably thought more about robots on earth than anyone in the past year and a half. Yeah, I actually think that because I wasn't a fan I think makes it more accessible to other people, does that make sense? Megatron was a gun, and I'm like, "I don't get that," and I did get a lot of flak from fans on the net, like, "Michael Bay, you wrecked my childhood." "Michael Bay, you suck. We're going to protest his office." They protested my old office apparently. That's true. The death threats freak me up, but I think we've – I would listen to fans on the net, I really would. I would kind of hear their comments, but I'm still going to make my movie and I'll still put flames on Optimus.

Edit: I think this is the same interview that was posted before. My Bad

Bay: Listen, I'm a huge Transformer fan now

But he wasn't before! (He still did a great job with the movie though)

I can appreciate having an outside eye, I think that does make sense and probably does help in a few different ways.

12 more days and I'll know for sure.

Why is it in all Micheal Bay pictures he looks like hes modeling clothes. His facial expression reminds my of Zoolander so much, I can't help but laugh. Wonder if he looks like that while hes directing, could never take the man serious if so.

Yes, it was. Though, it was through a different media outlet. I've been noticing this alot recently. It seems like some websites/news outlets are posting the exact same material. I don't know if they are stealing it, or if they are associated with each other. The first time I read this, I beleived it was a one on one interview, now it's claimed to be a press conference. Which is it?

Btw, this isn't a reflection on Seibertron at all (just to be clear). Keep up the good work!
