I feel that this is funny and all, but in the end is still making fun of Bay and his movies. I was shown this earlier today and felt offended, this guy by the way who wrote this article is not a fan of Bay and makes it clear in the article that Bay delivers nothing more then Explosions and excess. Which to me does not represent a Bay film at all, but this is just my opinion in the end and I'm sure if read under the right light is not as demeaning as I took it to be. I prob just need to go chill for a sec.

That article simply can not be taken seriously I dont think that the writer (fan or not) wrote it seriously either

Being offended by it would only please the writer, and Bay haters. Laugh it off.

As I said before: there is no bad advertisement. When you talk about somebody you make him stronger. Although the tone of this article is a bit sarcastic, it only proves one thing - Michael is great in what he is doing and billions of people like it. No matter the opinion of some critics and journalists.

Very good points guys. Making me view this differently and that is good. Thanks for the share, love your posts Albershide

I should say nothing but I'm going to anyways..
This person could have loads of different motives to get this article out or non at all.. we'll never know..

I wasn't pleased by looking at the article yesterday.. yes i LOOKED at it, cause lets be honest there's not much to read only "nice" pictures and graphs, art print and stuff to look at and the fact that he's only focused on Michael's explosions and death-count in his movies shows that he doesn't understand Michael's movies... so it wasn't hard to think that this guy presented this for Bay fans in the hopes to get a great reaction from us just to prove a point that we love looking at nice images, box office numbers and that we never read a f*kin book or something.. that were all about visual stuff, i don't feel offended because these guys being forced to write something about Michael and his work are the same types of people who act all whiny like a little granny all day long telling kids not to play with fireworks and such and needing diaper changing every time they hear/see something regarding Michael and his movies.

And this article is probably just meant to get loads of fans to visit their site and making them more popular..

This guy actually saved me some time. I was going to calculate the number of explosions, but guess I don't have to anymore!

I liked it. If the data is all accurate, it's really interesting. The correlation between the number of explosions and finanical success is funny only because it's probably coincidental. After all, the increasing success of each Transformers movie is most likely due to the increased popular awareness of the franchise over time (and increasing population). Oftentimes movies do well not because the public knows it's a good movie (they haven't seen it yet!), but because they think they're going to get one. Plus with franchises, people feel obliged to see them so they're not left out of conversations with friends!

The best part, which I was about to complain about until I read it in the fine print: "With the destruction of Shanghai, New York, and Paris in Armageddon, the implied body count is probably in the millions." LOL. Useless statistics, but fun to know!! (And don't forget the dinosaurs!)

P.S. I don't think anyone would go through the trouble of accruing this data without being a fan. Even though he might be getting paid to write it, he probably came up with the idea himself.

I liked this article. I dont think it bashes Bay. However, I think the thing with the explosions is coincidentally, for the most part.
