Michael bay left speechless...

[Sinnertwin]

Wow.
From the prewritten responses to Michael's departure, that was hard to watch.

[liegeprime]

oh wow, that was just painful to watch, I guess he wasn't really fully prepared to wing it. Bad day at work I guess .... but yeah that was quite embarrassing

Bay often comes across as so arrogant so much of the time that I must admit I don't feel a helluva lot of sympathy for him here. If something bad or upsetting had happened to him pre going up on stage then fair enough, cant blame the man one bit. But if it was simply because the teleprompter wasn't working then for someone who 'creates dreams' surely he could nut-up and wing a 3 minute talk about what he does for a living.

Yep

I reserve judgement on anyone that I have not personally met. If others want to be influenced by what they read / hear in the media whose job it is to be controversial and create headlines, that's their prerogative. Until Michael Bay runs over my cat, he's OK in my books. Going back to the first movie in 2007 and the subsequent comments such as 'Michael Bay raped my childhood'; if that's the biggest worry in your life you're doing OK as well.

I judge him by the movies he makes and stuff he directly says.

And you don't think for one second that the studio has any influence or that his interviews are edited? I'm sure you mean 'indirectly' otherwise I would be very interested to hear your conversation / interview with him.

At least Bay takes the time to have quick chats w/ fans and sign autographs. Megan Fox on the other hand totally ignored fans and purely engaged w/ the media. So in my personal experience, I found Bay to be reasonably approachable. I may not be the greatest fan of his work, but as a person I don't have an issue w/ Bay.

Getting close w/ Michael Bay


This was as close as I could get to Megan Fox - posing for the media

I'd rather spend the evening looking at Megan Fox than listening to Michael Bay

IMHO she's not that good looking IRL. :/
