I don't know if he's stupid or smart for turning it down. As a fan, I would love to be in it but I wouldn't like to be the guy in the movie that everyone hates.

i didnt feel like reading it if hes not trasnformer fan then iunderstand but he is not a well known actor yet so if i where him i would take any acting job i can get good or bad but then again heh movie may suck if he where to be in it but i wouldnt know i havnt seen his movies yet only time will tell if he made good decision or not.

Maybe he knows how difficult it is to work with Michael Bay and Michael Bay's Ego.
