Not that I ever sat around thinking about what Michael Bay would look like as an M&M, but if I had to guess, I would have put him in royal blue, or bright red, or maybe hot yellow-- really, either the same color as Optimus Prime or Bumblebee. But now there is, dear God, an actual rendering of Michael Bay as an M&M-- peanut, naturally-- and it turns out he's purple.

I wish I were making this up. You can see the new ad at Bay's website, which is touting both Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and a new M&M flavor-- strawberried peanut butter. It's really unclear which is more horrifying, that flavor or Bay's visage--stubble included-- transformed into an M&M. But I do like the idea of being able to hold Michael Bay in my hand and crushing him.
