Verizon rules simply because of this.

HAHAHAHA! That was great! Bay always stays right in his "zone", namely cool explosions and "awesome" special effects! With him, you always know what you'll get. Nice work, Verizon.

I really wasn't fond of this guy when he was announced, but because of his sense of humor, he's grown on me. :lol:

Nice to see that Bay has a sense of humor.

That was..... AWESOME!

I was late taking Professor Bay's "Awesome" Class. But the world needs more "awesome" than "geeks" right now.

We need more guys to wake up in the morning and make the decision to go forward; as oppose to the spineless, easily scared cowards I've been meeting as of late.

I also respect the guy's sense of humor, but he needs to cut down on the explosives. :mrgreen:

When Bay wakes up he already has all the explosion triggers in hand. I want an awesome breakfast BOOM!

It would have been funnier if he blew up the TV.

I admire the guy for being able to make fun of himself, most people in Hollywood have their heads too far up their own ass to be able to do that.

I also noticed how he's got an 08 Bumblebee and a Leader Megatron toy on his desk next to his big (I presume "awesome"?) TV...

by **OptimusShr** » Fri Feb 15, 2008 9:32 pm

I want an exploding pool so I can scare the crap out of people.

by **Autobot Snake Eyes** » Fri Feb 15, 2008 10:45 pm

That was so funny!!
Mike isnt afraid to poke fun at how simple his movies are.

BOOM!! BOOM!!

he even has a exploding pool and leader megs if you look closely.
That would be so cool to have that BB they used in the film.

Not only was that ad better than all the other Fios ads I've seen, It was (as Bay says) pretty Awesome!

I am glad they showed the shot of Bonecrusher, He is awesome too.
