Robzy: I agree with what you say. As the director Bay is the leader and it is his Giri to take responsibility for the film, for all its successes and failures.

However what I was addressing were comments like these:

Teh end!
...which make it sound like people are solely crediting/blaming Bay for the script, which is inaccurate. Sure, Bay should take responsibility for the questionable modifications he made to the script (I sure hope Orci and Kurtzman never wrote about Jetfire farting a parachute :/), but I think it's inaccurate to state or imply that he actually _writes_ the scripts in the first place.

It's more like he looks at the script and thinks, "Now where I can insert more explosions and lewd jokes?"

They were on board as writers for the first two movies. I just hope that Bay steps back and tries not to modify their script too much. He didn't mess around with the script for TF1 as much as he did with ROTF, so he tones himself down like he did with the first movie I'd be satisfied.
