Simple fact is Bay's over-the-top approach has got him where he is. And the simple fact is, a part of being a director is to do the kinds of things that Bay does. As a director, you have to know what you want, and then go for it. And before it's said, I'm not a Bay Apologists, so you can shove that one. In fact, I don't even like half his movies. I dislike Armageddon, never bothered with Pearl Harbor, the Rock...is tolerated, and I hate Bad Boys with a freakin' passion. Even Will Smith couldn't make up for the sheer SUCK that is Martin Lawrence. There, I said it. But the simple fact is I dislike these movies, not because of Bay, but because...well, it's freakin' Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, and Bad Boys...how many explanations do you need?
I enjooyed Armageddon and saw it a crapload of times. But then again opinions differ.
