Good god do I ever want him to direct a third Bad Boys movies with Will and Martin. Absolutely love these movies, they are the ultimate guy movies.

Just one suggestion if you do make it Michael...you gotta get Will Smith to own a Porsche Carrera GT in the movie. That F'n car woudl be off the chain in a high speed chase.

Come on Bay...you were born to do these Bad Boys movies and I'd be dissappointed if there wasn't a third. I seen BB2 three times in the theater alone.

Bad Boys 2 was disappointing compared to the first one. While I loved The Island, which has been bashed for no real reason.
I prefer Mr.Bay to put all his effort into delivering a serie of outstanding Transformers movies, at least both Transformers 2 and 3 before switching to other projects. So that he could have achieved delivering his first trilogy. Yes, you could tell.. "he could just do Bad Boys 3 and you got the first trilogy by Mr.Bay" .. and I would reply that Transformers was the best Mr.Bay movie to date, it has been a huge success worldwide and it needs to be developed further and with higher production budgets and even better CGI effects than the competition. And competition is going to get tough in the next couple years with upcoming japanese anime based/derived adaptations of Robotech,Battle Angel Alita,Dragonball,Voltron and others. So in order to ensure an even greater success to the next Transformers 2 and 3 movies it's needed that Mr.Bay will work harder than before to deliver longer, more action packed and with better CGI and character development movies so that at least the Transformers trilogy will remain a huge classic and be rated as high as Star Wars movies or Lord of the Rings ones.
Transformers original manga/anime series have all the elements needed to deliver the best sci-fi trilogy adaptation to date. Transformers by Mr.Bay was an introduction for the general public to the Transformers saga, world, myth and concept. Now it's the really hard part that Mr.Bay needs to achieve, make the next two movies so excellent and better than the first one so that the trilogy becomes perfect and it could be developed further with new movies in the future anyway (and not overdo it, put the right amount of effort but not risk having characters with no souls.. if you understand what I mean, which is something it could easily happen if too much effort is put in a project and too many people start forcing changes to it, losing the overall vision).

"Bay NEEDS to do Bad Boys 3!!!!!!!!!!"
Exactly. While the first one wasn't that great, part 2 was fucking awesome and the best and funniest action buddy movie ever. Can't wait for an (unannounced) Bad Boys 3.

wow. funny how i couldn't get any responses to my Bad Boys 3 thread i started last week except, "i could live without it".....now everyone is dying for it? And no, the 2nd one blows the first outta the water. The action is far better, and it's far funnier. The "Reggie/First Date" scene is funnier than the entire first film, and i used to be a die-hard fan of part 1.

Wingzero - I would much rather see Bay finish a trilogy that is essential his own. Transformers has been around for decades.


I saw BB2 three times in the theater alone.

so did i, but not alone any of the times. At the 2nd viewing of it, my friend at the time was just bitching about the length of the film "ughh DAN is this ALMOST over?!" she groaned.

Wingzero - I would much rather see Bay finish a trilogy that is essential his own. Transformers has been around for decades.

Transformers was considered a little kid story until Bay and Spielberg turned it into a realistic high budget feature film with the best top-notch CGI to date.
And if they don't put more effort into ensuring Transformers gets a trilogy done they could lose money and general public interest. Lord of the Rings was well known, it's based on a classic but not ancient story, still until the high budget movie trailer got released no one would have thought it could have been such a huge success. The same is happening with Transformers and in order to ensure an even higher success than the first movie the trilogy must be completed in a short period of time, if they stop at the second movie or delay the movies too much it would be no good. Lord of the Rings movies were released in a few years. Spiderman movies have been released in a few years as well, and yes the comics existed for decades as well but no other adaptation until now was able to attract so many people.

Maybe once Mr.Bay will have completed the first Transformers trilogy he could switch to both Bad Boys 3 and The Island 2...

Terminator - 1984. T2 - 1991.

The length of time they wait to do them,[Bad Boys - 1995 & Bad Boys 2 - 2003], has nothing to do with the quality of work put out.


no one would have thought it could have been such a huge success.

seriously? no one would of guessed LOTR would be a success? It's easily one of, if not the most famous series of books in the past century. Yea, i guess it we can assume it was gonna flop prior to the trailer. Right.


but no other adaptation until now was able to attract so many people.

Are you referring to Trans or Spidey? Because all 3 Spiderman films have outgrossed Trans.

I'm going to give the same answer as I gave in the other thread and that was the "I could survive without it"-one :p Bad Boys and BBII are cool films, but enough is already. Besides, let's say Bay's next two movies are Transformers 2 and 3. I'm very interested in what he would do after those and the last thing I want is him to announce BB3. That would be predictable and disappointing. It would probably be the first Bay-film I wouldn't be looking forward to.

I like BB1, but i still cannot grasp this concept of it being better than 2. I mean there are those who perfer T1 over 2, Alien over Aliens, but i just don't see how. I've said this already but the "Reggie" scene of part 2 is FAR funnier than the entirety of the first movie, and i find the first movie really funny. But 2, without ANY action scenes, is STILL a damn great movie, based on the comedic value alone.

I will say this, i'm not sure i want it to just be a Will/Martin film again, i think they really do need to cut Martin out of the film and give his part to someone new, give Smith something new to play off of, not just the "family man tired of the gun fights" type character Martin mastered.

Yeah, good post.

The whole T1 v T2 is more on budget and "bigness". Likewise with Alien v Aliens.

I mean Aliens FFS was a remake of Alien just with just more of everything. The plots were identical. Distress call answered by Ripley. Come to find distress-ees taken care of by the Aliens. Fight. Have to escape before a nuclear explosion destroys everything. Ripley goes back to save a Cat/child, and escapes just in the nick of time before the nuclear explosion. Unknownst to Ripley an naughty Alien sneaked aboard the ship, and she has to fight it, and at the end, blows it out of the airlock and then goes into hypersleep. Which plot was I describing? Alien or Aliens? No idea? Basically the difference was in Alien she rescued a cat, and in Aliens she rescued a child. They are both goddamn the same, James Cameron just put more aliens and people in Alien(s).

BB2 on the other hand. Wow, what an absolute ride. Like Superfreak says take away the action and it is still an awesome comedy. I mean that whole scene in the video store where they are talking about what Smith did to Lawrences behind and the after affects of it makes me laugh just thinking of it. And that is just one funny bit. And the action in it. My god, that freeway car chase was superb. And that was just one of the chases.

BB1 was a good cop action/drama/comedy on the level of Lethal Weapon. BB2 was a whole level above. It was not just a remake/"biggening" of the BB1 plot. It was just fucking awesome.

i will agree with most of what you said, but i think Cameron made a war movie out of Aliens, and Scott made a horror film. To me Aliens is a badass friggin ride, i watch it ALL the time. The humor is far better in Aliens, i don't remember anything in Alien being as funny as any line out of Bill Paxton's mouth in Aliens. I agree its basically the same plot, but from such a different angle the film feels entirely different, and that's why its rightfully refered to as 1 of the best sequels that will ever get made.

Also, what is "Aliens FFS"

But back to Bay - BB3, i would rather it not be made anymore. I've changed my stance bc i don't want the ball to get dropped ala Alien 3.

FFS meant "for fooks sake"... :)

And regarding Alien 3, it had it's merits. But I would not worry even slightly about that with BB3. If Bay was making it, or at least in charge, it would rock. If you check up on the history of Alien 3 is was an absolute studio farce, and was amazing it came out as good as it did (thanks to Fincher). They didn't even have a real story, they went through several directors, but the film got made as they had promised a coming sequel. And the even advertised - and I actually recall seeing the cinema teaser for it. I didn't know until seeing the DVD documentaries that the teaser was done at a state where they didn't have a script of director, but had a release date...

once again showing that hollywood just wants it in theatres, they give no regard to the quality of product being released, just that the advertising is heavy enough to guarantee a big opening, then a 99% drop in the box office the next weekend. The Dir.Cut of Alien 3 is alot better, but um, still didn't need to be made, or at least, forcefully rushed out.

Bad Boys is Bays baby, he will never leave it out to dry.
He is more then likely planning on installing a third one. Look at the possibilities why it isn't announce.

The success of Transformers: I know for a damn fact the studios are offering Bay a ton of money and pressure to get this film done. When something is successful, it will be more then meets the eye, lol. So they have Bay locked in for a sequal, even announcing it during the movies campiagn in theaters.

Next: The Will Smith sega:
Two movies, I AM LEGEND and HANCOCK, and I know he has a few more movie schedule, so Bay can't do a BB3 without Smith. It would probably take about 8-10 weeks of shooting, and thats time out of Smith schedule, and it looks like Smith will have another franchise under his belt with Hancock.

Martin....no comment, he should be AVALIBLE !!!

LOL

This is the reason why I preferred BB1. It's smaller!

Despite the stupid amount of logic flaws, the raw shooting mixed with the stylised shots, the small locations, and no over the top actions sequence/cgi made it believable to a certain extent. Reminds me of Lethal Weapon or Die Hard. Now when I sat in the cinema and saw Matrix style shots and then action scene after action scene after scene, I was like 'whoa! wtf! i'm all up for escapism but this is too much'. Pretty soon into the film I couldn't give a fuck about the characters. Just like with The Island, it started off awesome but 2 car chases later, 1 flying chase later, 1 falling off a skyscraper with a massive logo and helicopter later... I really couldn't give a fuck.

Yeah it's funnier than the first one, and each action scene is well done... but for me it was too much! It wasn't believable in the slightest and didn't feel like Bad Boys. It's fine when it's giant fucking robots because you accept that before the film has even started, but when it's 2 black cops in a hard ass Miami setting, there was no grit (except for a few notable moments).

Absolutely untrue, Will and Martin called the Bruck up during shooting of BB2 and said they wanted to do a 3 ASAP, but being that it was probably shot in 02 for summer 03 release, maybe it's a ways off.....2 was released 8 years after 1 of course.

BB2 was horrible - the only Michael Bay movie I've ever watched that had me wanting to leave the theater.

I think Will Smith and Martin Lawrence are far too big of stars to ever agree on a BB3, and of course MB has better things to do.

I had some ideas of how this would go... but i'm pretty sure Bay will stir up something wiked.

some ideas are:

-they would need to work with a 3rd guy... from the fbi or something... and make him someone like "eddy murphy"... (I actually thought a young eddy murphy would be perfect... but i can't think of anyone else...)... basically... will smith, martin lawrence will not get that much along with eddy murphy... but at the end... eddy murphy will be one of the bad boys...

-will smith drives a porsche carrera or a lamborghini

-will smith gets martin's sister pregnant

i don't know why eveyone seems to think Martin was the reason those movies were funny. Martin can't hold his own films, he has to have someone to play off of. Will in these 2 movies, Eddie in Life, which i just saw and surprisingly liked alot. But the rest of Martins filmography is crap. No, Blue Streak was terrible. So was the Big Momma's House movies, etc......

The Lethal Weapon movies were alright, i guess i liked them alot more when i was younger, i vaguely remember part 4 and the scene ya'll are talking about was the only funny scene in the movie. Jet Li was wasted, but then again, Jet Li has been wasted in every AMERICAN movie, i didn't say every movie, i said every American film he's done. That doesn't include Hero or Fearless.

And i'm afraid to say i may be slowly deciding he should indeed leave the BB series alone, end it on a high note. Don't sequelize it to death ala Lethal Weapon or Die Hard 4 <Die Hard 1,3 are the ONLY great ones, 2 is lame, 4 didn't feel like a DH film at all, but like an action film where someone shoehorned McLane into the film>

Smith has an on-screen charisma that easily makes him one of the highest paid, most commercially successful cross-over actors ever. Get rid of Smith? Get rid of a sure-fire box office smash. Don't be foolish people, Smith is the draw for the main movie going audience.

Did you ever think that perhaps its due to the fact that Smith has been more available for movies, whereas Martin isn't exactly going out looking to make movies left and right? Most of the time it is due to Directors wanting a specific actor for the role. Alot of them call up Will to specifically be the star role cast member. So if anything... its the directors biased decisions to bring in Will and not Martin. And when Martin isn't seen out in the public as much as Will, just like all media, the public tends to be swayed towards what media says. If media says, belly button rings are no longer cool, girls would stop wearing them. If media said drinking jager at least once a day is better for you, more people would start drinking more jager. If someone said Steve Martin was a dead beat child molester, even though the public may not know the truth and hear it from 1 person that has something against Steve, they'd all think its true, even if it wasn't true. So to sit here and say that Martin isn't funny because of his films... think about the people who wrote the films, and the directors and how they wanted the films to be presented.

Oh lookie there, Martin wrote most of his show and all his stand up. Smith is more available? Seems his plate is a lil fuller than Martins. What's that? Oh, i'm sorry, you seem to think Martin isn't in films, i see more previews for more new Martin films than Smiths. There all biased, you say? LOL. Smith has range. I guess the director's are biased for people with......uh.....talent? Oh yea, Martin isn't seen in public except when brandishing a gun at the middle of an intersection and blaming it on heat stroke. I don't go around doing what the media tells me to do, so don't try to act like we're all susceptible to the same things you are.

I actually liked it, not as much as i'd hoped, though. Don't get my tirades wrong here, i want Martin in the film, but he needs to be written out of the movie in the first act, not by his Marcus Burnett's death, just a re-assignment or something like that. I just feel that there needs to be new blood to the series, if there going to make a third one, which i have officially decided, i do not want to see happen.

Hmm.... I'm sensing a bit of hostility here. I saw his sitcom a few times and to be honest.. didn't care for it.. then again... I think it has to do with his girlfriend in the show that I didn't care for either. As far as his movies go, I've seen the Bad boys series, and it just wouldn't be the same without him in it. The only other movie I've seen with him is Nothing to Lose.. and I love that movie. I'm sure you'll pawn it off as to the fact that Tim Robbins was the other star actor. It wasn't as much as a "funny" type of show as a show about real life and the craziness that people get themselves into when things in life head down hill. I do think he should stay in the movie. If some other actor takes over his role, I wouldn't be interested. Just as I posted before, I don't much care for switching of actors in a series.

I guess I forgot about some of his movies like Black Knight and Wild Hogs. Those were two other good movies that I liked with him in, as well as House Party 1 and 2.

But i will say that his films only work if he's sharing the lead with another actor and isn't the only star. Everything else he does is 2nd rate Eddie Murphy-esque garbage.

Sorry, don't mean to attack, not trying to get personal.

Stormare has only been in Armag and BB2 of Bay's films, right? YES, he was a PERFECT devil in Constantine, i love that movie.

Um, no, i won't, don't act like you can read my mind. But i will say that his films only work if he's sharing the lead with another actor and isn't the only star. Everything else he does is 2nd rate Eddie Murphy-esque garbage.

Yeah, I'd have to agree. On everything you have said... After BB1 and 2 I went and got a few of Martin Lawrence's films, and, hmmm, not anything I'd actually have missed actually seeing this lifetime...

Given a good script, and an awesome director (ie, Michael Bay) he can look good, but take that away and it is actually painful to watch.

And Stormare - BB2 and Armageddon I believe are his only two Bay outings. I defintely agree about him in Constantine. A very cool film.

And how about Bernie Mac? Why the hell hasn't that dude had a lot more decent meaty roles? I loved him in Charlies Angels 2, and his part in Transformers, and Bad Santa he was frankly the most awesome part of it. But I look at his filmography in IMDB and fuck, he has nothing. But if you ask me which actor I'd love to see more of, the first name that would pop into my head is Bernie Mac. The man has such a comedic presence I immediately break into a grin in anticipation whenever I see him in a film, even in a bit role.

If you are looking for someone else for BB2, I vote Bernie Mac. He rocks.

Good to see i'm not alone in my confusion over how Martin still has a career, but the "grown-ups" sure did LOVE Wild Hogs apparently, guess that's better than a Black Knight 2.

On the subject of Mac - Once again i will reference Life, i saw it just last week and Mac was the FUNNIEST part of that movie. Jangalang! Jangalang! Mac really is a force to be reckoned with. I wish he'd of been given bigger parts in the Ocean's sequels, but he was great in what we saw of him. His show, sadly i haven't seen it in months, is a sitcom with serious staying power, and that is VERY rare in prime time nowadays.

And thou i can't see him in such an action heavy film as Bad Boys, it may be worth a try, he doesn't seem to disappoint.

Glad to see I'm not alone in appreciation of Bernie Mac :)

Bad Boys 3 will be awesome. I think what would be better is if they added a 3rd main character. The Rock, would be a perfect addition to the team.

Since we're doing hypotheticals here, I feel like you can't do another one with out Will or Martin. That's just me.

Although I do agree with Chem about Martin. He's like another Eddie Murphy now, making crappy kids movies in lieu of what brought them to the party (blue humor) in the first place. Atoning for the past? Softening now that they're parents? Don't know.


Cast Keanu Reeves. I've always wanted to see Keanu in a Michael Bay movie.

Just make sure he says "whoa". I watched Street Kings and he didnt even say "whoa" a single DAM time....I left pissed as shit.

Michael Bay as a filmmaker definitely shows growth in every picture he tackles; he seems more dignified in capturing an identity for him pictures which I like a lot. Bay can slow down moments or speed them up when necessary. He just seems in supreme command of his projects and no one is over shadowing him to watch a producer feels the film needs. No. The reason why these producers higher him is because he the right man for the job. He doesn't need people watching over him-- he's a professional.

I think when he decides to approach Bad Boys III? I will see a filmmaker who will be using his years of knowledge and experience to make the best Bad Boys film he can deliver and we all know it will be BIGGER, BETTER, SEXIER and FUNNIER.

And you know what the word for that is, Verizon guy?

Anything to avoid the horror that was Bad Boys 2.

Seriously, I was checking my watch every 15 minutes wondering when it would end.

Not unlike the way I felt watching Pirates 2…
