  1. The Rock 1996 is Michael Bay's James Bond movie

    The Rock by Michael Bay is about an FBI chemist agent ( Nicolas Cage ) who calls for help from an old retired British Intelligence Agent played by Sean Connery himself. No wander there are theories that this agent character could be James Bond, making this film a kind of unofficial Bayhem!ed sequel to Connery Bond films. It's not like he didn't play James Bond outside of the main franchise. He did play James Bond in Never Say Never Again which is a real James Bond film, which is not a part of the main franchise. So maybe, possibly, he did that again here too. We will never know.
  2. Bad Boys 2 is Michael Bay's Magnum Opus

    Similarly to Michael Mann's Miami Vice Bad Boys II is about love, man... It is about how both Will Smith and Martin Lawrence love Gabrielle Union. And how they are willing to do international terrorism and kill many many people, to save her. True love bro!
  3. Blue Steel 1990 is the seed that grew into the reason Avatar didn't win best picture

    So it's 1990 and Kathryn Bigelow writes and directs an action thriller about a police officer. The police officer is female and the movie almost refuses to sexualize her. Bigelow casts a nice half-Jewish girl Jamie Lee Curtis. And pretty much the whole movie, not a single shot of her emphasizes or admires her body ( apart from one sex scene where we see a very erotic closeup of her stomach ). Making that movie technically feminist. Few years later, in 1994, as James Cameron ( who was married to Bigelow between 1989 and 1991 ) is trying to find the actor to play the wife in his film True Lies. He is reminded of Blue Steel by Bigelow. And decides to cast Jamie Lee Curtis in his film. Giving us that very strange, almost pornographic scene where she does a very erotic strip-tease scene with Arnold Schwarzenegger. More than a decade later, in 2009, both Bigelow and Cameron make a movie. And both of those movies are nominated for the best picture. Yet Bigelow takes home the price. Did Cameron lose due to his pussy curse?

  7. Is clarity in action a bad thing?

    I often hear how good action film-making is always clear and easy to follow. Camera isn't shaking like crazy and editing isn't filled with ADHD mania. Yet the more I think about it the less this makes sense.

  9. Watching a snippet of Bad Boys II and between Michael Bay films and CSI Miami I'm wondering if the Bridge in Miami - the MacArthur Causeway - is ~ever actually open~, or if it's just daily mass gunfire and high speed criminal and police chases ...

    "Sorry I'm late boss, a helicopter crashed into the commenter bridge *AGAIN*."

  10. Green Lantern Nearly Joined Michael Bay’s R Rated Lobo Film

    Fans of DC comics were shocked when writer Jason Fuchs revealed that Green Lantern was set to appear in a cancelled Lobo movie. The project was meant to be violent, gritty and fully R rated. It would have blended Michael Bay style action with the wild tone of the space bounty hunter....

  13. From: blenderdumbass . org

    Tony Scott appeared to be trying to outgrow Michael Bay in the 2000s. In 2001 he does Spy Game which is a kind of slightly bayhem-ish movie. Where Tony Scott is no longer trying to make pretty pictures, but is trying to go for ultimate intensity. His Enemy of the State before that, is still more of a classic Tony Scott. While making Spy Game his brother Ridley Scott ...

  14. *This is probably only interesting for people over 40 or so...*

    The famous Aaron Burr "got milk?" TV ad is almost 30 years old! It first aired in 1993 and was directed by Michael Bay (yes, *that* Michael Bay) a couple of years before his first feature, Bad Boys.
