So apparently director
extraordinaire Michael Bay
put up a fuss about director
actually extraordinaire McG (hey, he produces
Supernatural, I'm in the man's debt) for using robots,
big robots, in his new film
Terminator: Salvation.
I'm completely on Michael Bay's side here. I mean, before
Transformers came out, there had never been big robots on screen before. Somebody once tried to tell me that there was a whole tv series about transforming robots, and that it was even called
Transformers, but I slapped him in the face and told him to never question Michael Bay's creative abilities.
If I were Michael Bay, I'd go right for the next obvious target: Brad Bird's
The Iron Giant. That film was a complete rip off of
Pearl Harbor.
