    Well he does have a history with advertising.

    Did he not make the comment while he was down here (at the press conference in Eveleigh, if I'm not mistaken), that he was technically unemployed? It would make sense that if he was offered some work while down here undertaking his contractual promotional obligations, that he'd accept piecemeal work if the schedule allowed.

    Note I said "technically" unemployed. I doubt he would have been begging on the street, but that's not so say he wouldn't want to keep earning between films if possible.

    Found it on youtube. Very funny. He's almost paying out on himself, with his only line being an excited 'I used 7 helicopters', for the mere bank commercial.

    And while on the topic of Michael Bay, is this one (looks like Southpark?)

    Never watched much of Southpark, but recognised the animation style. I thought the cartoon was funny, but was never impressed that it was often being marketted to kids because it was animated and focused on kid characters. I do occasionally watch it if it is on when I am home (not often with my work hours), but I won't bother to tape it.

    You can only see "Imagination land" if you're watching on Channel BT. SBS is a series behind.

    I dont know if he is taking the mickey out of himself or just talking normally!

    It's a horrible ad though, it's very confusing and jumpy.
