I might do the sequel. I might not. I wanna work on it, but then I'll stop for the strike. Then I might be on, but I don't know.
This article is more on his politcal views than anything else, and I frankly care less about those than I do his abilities as a director. Tell you what, when there's an offical statement about who's directing the sequel, then you can tell us what Michael Bay thinks. The last few bits of "news" from this guy have been pretty pathetic, anyway.
It's news because when the guy who makes the Transformers movie says something about the franchise, it's important. He rarely posts, so when he does, it's news.
Yes, nothing is confirmed yet. But when the man in charge of the new movies says that he's "itching" to work on it, that's a good indication that he'll sign on again.
it's been a slow few weeks for news, I'd figure when Michael Bay of all people says something, fans might want to know about it.

Why do all of the characters in TF 2 have to be G1 characters? Instead of your idea how about they take the really obvious choices like Soundwave, Shockwave, and Mirage, and then make a few new characters? Barricade was a new character and a
ton of people feel he's the coolest 'bot in the movie. So, common sense would tell you a few new characters is probably a good idea.
True. I really hate how fans can't look past G1 for potential movie characters, then those same fans claim to be NOT G1-purists, even though they ONLY want G1 characters in the films and want everything to remain as closely to G1 as possible... even though everywhere you turn nowadays it's G1, G1, G1, G1! I don't think there's been this much G1 stuff around since 1984! At least leave the movies for new stuff.

Yeah, that little part put a smile on my face as well. Truth be told I like Bay a little more now!
