Michael Bay Picks A Fight With Hugo Weaving For Calling Megatron Role 'Meaningless'

On some level, sure, Michael Bay is right-- actors have pretty cushy jobs, and any complaining they do ought to be taken with a massive grain of salt and recognition that they're doing OK. But that's not really what Weaving was doing here. He was stating some basic facts about a voiceover job that didn't challenge him that much and wasn't that meaningful...

Michael Bay Will Return To Direct Transformers 4

As you can tell it's still far, far too early to speculate on the story for a new film, or even which stars would be back for a new film-- though I'm guessing that the franchise is as finished with Shia LaBeouf as he seems with them, so I'd at least count on a new lead...

Check Out The Trailer For Universal Studios' Transformers: The Ride 3D

I'm no fan of Michael Bay's Transformers movies. In fact, I'd go so far as to say I'm an opponent of Michael Bay's Transformers movies, sent back from the future to prevent mankind's destruction via rock-stupid summer blockbusters. Still, while I may decry the Transformers films for dry-humping the lowest common denominator, there's no question that they're damned impressive from a visual standpoint....

The studio is apparently thinking of replacing him with Jason Statham, which is hilarious, but there's no offer yet so don't get your hopes up. And even though LaBeouf is out, Michael Bay hasn't quite let go of the dream-- sources say that Bay might stick around as an executive producer (which we knew) as well as a director...

And therefore it's no real surprise to hear from Hasbro that they are in active discussions with Paramount, Bay and Steven Spielberg to make a fourth Transformers movie. Of course, Bay is probably only involved in this as a producer, but thats still probably fine with him-- he doesn't just get a cut of the movies that succeed...

Aside from the fact that Murphy seems weirdly hostile to the Transformers fans who have made his movies a success, this all makes sense.

What Fox originally said was that Michael Bay, “…wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is. So he’s a nightmare to work for.”...
