Hey Guys Lets do a poll and see which of Mr. Bays films are the best and rank the best ones in order from his 1st movies to his current movies.

Here are my Picks

1. Transformers
2. Transformers 2
3. Bad Boys
4. Bad Boys 2
5. Armageddon
6. The Rock
7. Pearl Harbor
8. The Island


I know he produced other movies besides just directing them I dont know how many exactly I just know the main stream line of his movies his most popular ones.

My Least 2 favorites are Pearl Harbor & The Island the Island was a ok movie but really didnt kick it up to the end of the movie.

Pearl Harbor focused to much on Human Emotions and The Lovey-Dovey Romance crap but the action was top-notch.

Bad Boys 2 was one of his best ones sometimes I like it better than transformers, one of the best scenes in that movie was the interstate scene 40 cars & a boat and Mr. Lawerence flippin out was priceless.

That is what kept me hoping for a Bad Boys 3 I do see one happening with Bay doing other projects and Transformers 3 in summer 2011 I dont expect this movie anytime soon.

Also Martin Lawerence is busy doing his stand-up comedy thing for Starz and Will Smith has some new ones coming out such as a prequel to I am Legend and Hancock 2.

I can't say I care much for most of his films but I won't say I hate the guy and stereotype him as much as the haters do.

I like Bad Boys 2 and both Transformers movies because I feel they are right up his alley.

I do believe he wants to do Bad Boys 3 but presumably with pressure from Paramount and Hasbro to get Transformers 3 done in 2 years. I think Bad Boys 3 will come a bit after that.

What I heard about Bad Boys 3 is this is thier final time together and something about they are Captains or something like that getting ready to retire.

I am still waiting on Beverly Hills Cop 4.

I am sick of this rebooting crap stage hollywood is in are they that badly out of ideas that they are rebooting movies now.

The Crow

Red Dawn

Predator

High Lander


Some of those dont need a remake such as Red Dawn, The Crow or High Lander.

They are **** with classics and they will make them poopy with a remake with new guys in them that wont even be like the original movie.


What next Godzilla, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Spies Like Us.

Leave these films alone they are nothing wrong with those.

Fix movies that really need a remake Mortal Kombat, Double Dragon, Water World others like those need the remake not classics that were actually good.

See now it is either a prequel, sequel or a complete remake.

You sir are correct.

My list:
1. The Rock
2. Armageddon
3. Pearl Harbor
4. Transformers
5. The Island
6. RotF

(I didn't see the Bad Boys movies or the remakes, so I don't judge them)

Fix movies that really need a remake Mortal Kombat, Double Dragon, Water World others like those need the remake not classics that were actually good.

The first MK wasn't bad, but the sequel really needs a re-thinking. Water World was really good, maybe a sequel instead of a remake would be better.

Never mind Bay's 'best' films, how about Michael Bay's 'good' films? That would be a short list...

1. The Rock
2. Transformers

I've liked most of his movies, I haven't seen Bad Boys 2 or Pearl Harbor though. The only one that didn't appeal to me was Bad Boys, I thought it was kinda dull.

1. Transformers
2. Armageddon
3. The Island

1. The Rock. Cohesive plotline, decent characters, occasional wry humor, courtesy of Sean Connery.

2. Transformers 1 &2. Say what you will, the movies breathed new life into the TF franchise, and realized our dreams of watching top-class CG-rendered Transformers on the big screen.

3. Armageddon.

Transformers Movies, Armageddon and Pearl Harbor are impressive Bay's movies.

I love Michael Bay movies Big Grin! Well, most of them anyway Roll Eyes.If there are two things you can expect from his films, it's there will be plenty of action & the explosions will be big & beautiful! Honestly,"Pearl Harbor" was a terrible film, but once the Japanese planes showed up in Hawaii.That was the only moment I was looking forward to & I wasn't disappointed. I don't think he really expects to be taken seriously. Look at his filmography:
"Bad Boys"
"The Rock"
"Armageddon"
"Pearl Harbor"
"Bad Boys 2"
"The Island"
"Transformers"

1. The Rock (9/10)
2. Transformers (8/10)
3. The Island (8/10)
4. Armageddon (8/10)
5, Bad Boys (7/10)
6. Transformers ROTF (6/10) (it would be 4 but I am TF fan so...)
7. Bad Boys II (4/10)
8, Pearl Harbor* (4/10)

* - but there is a fanedit of this movie made by Adigitalman, which is only 2 hours long and dont have any love/romance subplot at all.

I don't know where to rank the Transformers movies, but they'd have to be pretty high. These movies made me aware of Michael Bay's existence. I saw Armageddon once, but I didn't pay much attention to who directed it.

LOL @ people that hated Pearl Harbor for having a plot and not just being explosions.

1) Pearl Harbor
2) Armageddon
3) Bad Boys
4) Bad Boys 2
5) The Rock (Sean Connery is the sole reason it's this high on the list. Nic Cage and Bay... I thought I was literally in Hell for parts of the film.)
6) Transformers

That's it. Everything else he's done was awful and/or garbage.

I would have to say his hands down best movie was Playboy Video Centerfold: Kerri Kendall.
Then Pearl Harbor, Great White: Call it Rock and Roll, Meat Loaf: Bat out of Hell II - Picture Show.

The rest are either moderately enjoyable watches (Bad Boys, The Rock, TF1, and Armageddon)
Or horrible movies (BB2, ROTF, anything else)

The only film of his that I liked was The Rock, which I thought was really good. It was entertaining and had a story that I found interesting. I never saw the Bad Boys movies, but if you all mean the Will Smith/Martin Laurence vehicles, you can keep them. Armageddon I found to be too formulaic, and no to everyone who's preparing to scream at me for not liking something Bay did, I am not insulting the film or its maker I just don't care for the formula that Armageddon utilized. My pal told me horrible things about Pearl Harbor so I passed on that one. Like, before I die I'd like to see it, but if I die without seeing it, I think I'll live.

I don't know why everyone bashes Pearl Harbor, I think it was a decent movie. Not Saving Private Ryan but worth the money on DVD. I think they did a decent job at portraying the massacre of US servicemen at Pearl. The love story? Eh, wasn't bad, wasn't great didn't alter my mood on the movie at all.
