This isn't really new news - he's been saying that for about six months.

I liked it anyway. But alot of tv shows/movies suffered during this time, and he was not able to get an extension on the movie release date to get a better script made up.

Oh well, I look forward to the next one anyway.

The film director should never say his movie is 'crap'.
I also liked his attempt to deflect the blame to others.
Pretty sure the opening credit reads: 'A Micheal Bay Film'.

Look at all his interviews from '08 & '09. All talking up the movie, just like he's doing for upcoming movie.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Any director is gonna talk up his new movie, not like he's gonna say it's a steaming pile of crap.

But his movie didn't say written and directed though, he didn't write it. He did best he could with what he had.

I'll be there day it comes out, can't wait to see it.

I think it's a good sign that Michael Bay has admitted this and hopefully this means that he will want to do a better job with DOTM. After all, the entire point of admitting to having made mistakes is to try to avoid repeating them. Well, he certainly won't have another writer's strike to blame for DOTM.

And yeah, as the director he would accept responsibility for the film's successes and failures -- if it's a problem with an actor or writer... whatever, you're the leader, therefore you accept responsibility. Such is the burden of leadership! (Rodimus Prime'd!!)

I don't think he is capable of doing a better job.

I don't think that the writer strike had anything to do with super crap editing, soft porn pretenders, D**k bots, farting parachutes, pot cookies, the twins and on and on.
