This is an exert from the news blog section of the michaelbay.com site regarding his thoughts on making the new films:
So it was the narrative already contained in the toys that drew you in?
Right. But the thing was, you would think I would watch the movies and the cartoons. I couldn’t. I would get 10 minutes into the movie and I wanted to just shoot myself. O.K., I’m dead serious. And all these people on the Internet saying, “Michael Bay, you wrecked my childhood and blah blah blah.” I’m like, Are you kidding me? Your childhood couldn’t have been that great, watching those cartoons. [laughs] You’re remembering something a lot sweeter than it really was.
This kind of proves that such a person isn't really cut out to take a franchise like this and continue it. It's quite a good example of how, in order to make the films, some degree of butchery is going to be involved, seeing as he literally can't stand the original.
We at RMC.com loved the original Transformers Movie. Perhaps one day a REAL remake will emerge?
