    Well, duh, if people insist on still using dial up they obviously won't be able to download movies realtime, but with +20mbits broadband so easily obtainable and pretty cheap too, it's not far away.

    While I agree that Transformers wasn't a total cluster**** (and if I'm being honest had some pretty cool stuff in it), Michael Bay is total "Scheisse Meister". Someone should put a restraining order on the guy so that he's never allowed within 500 meters of a movie set. IMO Bay's Bad Boys II is amongst the worst pieces of tripe that's ever been committed to celluloid.

    :ha: If you're into watching Will Smith and Martin Lawrence pose and preen like a pair of frickin *****es, then yeah it's super duper. The dialogue consists of nothing but inane banter, the camera work is awful, the editing is so hackneyed and cliched it's almost laughable. And as an added it bonus, it's painfully looooong (the only thing worse than a bad movie is a long bad movie).

    While I was watching this flick I felt like Alex from Kubrick's "A Clockwork Orange"; with his eyes fixed open and being forced to watch brutal, nasty, mindless imagery projected on the screen in front of me. Unlike poor Alex I had the option to grab my remote control and hit stop.

    Sorry if that's harsh, but damn, if we keep eating this **** they'll keep feeding it to us.

    I'll take that goolash over his "horror/thriller" movies that are not thrilling in the least. Why anyone would want to take a classic scary movie and make it mundane is beyond me but I think that is his goal in life. To ruin beautiful piece of cinematic culture and piss all over it. I hear his most recent project is Hitchcocks Birds. Well done Bay you PUTZ.

    Some of Bay's ideas are OK it's just the way he puts them together that makes me hate his product.

    I don't mind something implausible happening if it's well done.Die Hard 4 comes to mind.

    Bay always manages to insult the audiences intelligence with some of the crap he pulls.Armageddon had incredibly far fetched plot & was also full of long shots of the cast walking in slow mo which really bugged. Don't mention the crappy love scene Aerosmith tie in either.Oh snap.

    Wow! That's an out of the blue shot at goulash. Now Hungarians everywhere are annoyed with you.

    The only thing more superfluous than a remake of The Birds would be a remake of Psycho... :suspect: . I checked IMDb and Bay is producing The Birds while Casino Royale director Martin Campbell is at the helm. I actually like Campbell (he started out directing a few episodes of the TV series "Homicide: Life on the Street"), but a remake of the Birds? Why? Yet another entry on the always growing list of movies that I'll never see.

    I actually kind of like Bay's "The Rock", but as Childress79 said, Bay's just so cheezy and heavy handed that I find myself laughing during the heroic and climactic sequences in the film.

    When Transformers came out Bay was plugging it on one of the local radio morning shows. The host ask why bumble bee is not a VW Bug. The guy exploded. They play the clip at least once evey other week. It is great.

    Peral Harbor was TERRRIBLE!
