Michael Bay on Megan Fox: She's got to grow up

Director of Transformers and Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Michael Bay has voiced his opinion on Megan Fox's statements about her acting role in ROTF.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Megan Fox has been outspoken about the acting - or lack of it - she gets to do in Michael Bay's "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," but in a new interview with the Wall Street Journal, the director said his starlet is being "ridiculous."

"That's Megan Fox for you," Michael said. "She says some very ridiculous things because she's 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do. You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, 'Okay Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it.' But I 100 percent disagree with her."

This is just sad.

What happened here is the Media took something Megan said out of context, posed it to Michael as a criticism of his directing, and being the smart well articulated understanding man he is....swallowed it up and just let him mouth fly fly fly away.

So in short, the reporters tried to start a fight it would seem, and Bay was suckered into it.....quite easily I may add. I find it funny too this guy (As a producer as well) would attack what is clearly the most marketable aspect of the film. I would argue it's even more marketable then the robots.

As for Megan, she said she would be apart of a third film being she acknowledged it made her who she is now. And Michael, again being wise and understanding, found it necessary to re-word that as "HE" made her who she is...along with Nicholas Cage and Will Smith and Sean Connery and Bruce Willis and any actor ever to appear in any of his movies :roll:

So Megan for the most part is going to be in the third film, though I'm sure by now she too is rooting for another director to helm.

Speaking of Directors, if you had to choose, who would be the director you would see pick up the franchise?
I like Jackson.
Emmrick also has a way with explosions and the Apocolyptic if Unicron is tied in. But he seems too impressionable by the marketing staff as seen in Godzilla and even 10,000 BC.
Len Wiseman (Live Free or Die Hard) would be nice being he has the same grit feel and action pace as Bay. But doesn't seem to mind developing a character or two.


Any thoughts?

They even have a nice wiki page dedicated to Quebec Beer!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quebec_beer

(I was pointing at "Le Fin Du Monde" an appropriate R.E.M. song for a nuclear explosion

or "nookie lar" according to a once famous presidential running mate.

OH Oh, "inspired by French beer" The last French beer I tryed was called "Belzeboot" or something like that and was horrible.
I'll try that Quebec beer and comment on it later.

Oh damn now I remember that the beer shop that had nothing but beer from all over Germany and the world closed down.
Oh I'll find a way to try it.
