I dunno if I can think of a director who'd do much better, honestly. I think what he really needs is:
a) A better editor
b) To work from a full script.
c) Spielberg to keep his heavy hand as producer.

That's what the real problem is -- it's that the movie was clearly started without a finished script. I think if Bay actually had a finished, well-refined script in his hands when he started Transformers III there would be no better director.

Spielberg's heavy hand also wasn't as present in Transformers II to its detriment.

And damn it all to hell we need a better editor.

Given Bay's standard style of work and priorities - Without someone's heavy hand he would still butcher a well written script into what we saw in ROTF. For Bay, plot and characters come distantly after Action, SFX and explosions. In the minuscule instances when he did care for story and characters, he did it very poorly or gimmicky.

Bay was infamous for the things we have seen in ROTF well before he even did TF1, the difference being that before he was more restrained by several factors in the movie industry (studio, producers, etc) but now he has been given full reign and it truly shows what a hack director he is and where the flaws of the first movie actually came from as here they are the same but x10000.

You know, this explains a lot:

Note - for anyoen asking why Movie dev has 2 yellow legs (instead of one yellow, one green as int he movie) I was using the original character concept art as reference, which does have 2 yellow legs. I don’t think this is available online anywhere, so I can’t post it up to show you guys.

Heh, I was wondering why Long Haul was yellow. Perhaps his concept version is French, cos he's-a-peein'! :p
