When I think about the countless times they have gone in to battle for Bay, championing the movie on his behalf, only to have him come along and undermine them by agreeing with the rest of us (finally). They must feel really betrayed.
Betrayed? A slap in the face?Thats a pretty strong statement don't you think? You make it sound like Bay slept with their wives.

As you know (based on our disagreements in the past) I am a fan of ROTF. The reason I am a fan is not because I think it's the best movie of all time but because I think given the situation he did a good enough job. Ultimately it would of been better to wait until after the writers strike to make the movie but can you imagine the uproar if the fans had to wait any longer then they did for the sequel. So I applaud Michael Bay for not only making ROTF which I was happy with (again given the situation) but also for being man enough to admit their were mistakes and problems and that he wasn't happy with it.
