Armageddon (the movie).
...along with this is a mindset that Mr. Bay is a really huge director.. by Hollywood standards.
Sometimes I wonder if he's Luke Wilson in Armageddon. But then, he cast Ben Affleck in Pearl Harbor, as well,, so, it makes one wonder... is he really Ben Affleck?

The first image of Mr Bay that comes to my head is as the Beer Drinking Frat Boy in Mystery Men!!!:wtf :lol
Massive explosions, fast cut action scenes and helicopter shots all in one 5 second segment.

Transformers will always be the first movie I think of when I hear 'Michael Bay'. I loved Armageddon and like The Rock and Pearl Harbor. But I didn't know he had done those movies. And Transformers is my favorite out of all the films he's done.
The fact that this thread is still going exudes awesomeness.![]()
The first image that pops up in my mind is the fast-moving shot of the Ferrari 550 Maranello changing lanes on the MacArthur Causeway Bridge in Bad Boys II.

Hey everyone,
This is something I did last night. I googled a Michael Bay Caricature and nothing turned up. So I decided to do one myself. Hope you like it.

My favs are from Transformers- Bonecrusher when it looks like he's skating, and when he's on fire, and the shots at the Pyramids in Egypt from Transformers: ROTF.
Beautiful shots of the sunrise/sunset in the background.
It was funny when MB mentioned in his blog that they had such a short window to shoot during the sunset, and the crew was finding it hard to not take pictures of it etc. What a neat thing to see...
Actually I don't see images when I hear the name Michael Bay. But the first thing I think of is the artist Caravaggio.
If it's a good movie, the sound could go off and the audience would still have a perfectly clear idea of what was going on.

First image that pops in my head, well, in the past, it was the revolving shots of Mike and Marcus vs the Haitians in Bad Boys 2. But now, after Transformers 1, I can't help but think Michael Bay is so cool, he'll use himself as random comedy character in his movies, like when Megatron called him disgusting and flicked his ass into the car. Or how he was the butt of a quick joke in Bad Boys 2, or the fact he used his own car for Bad Boys 1.
"like when Megatron called him disgusting and flicked his ass into the car"
That was MB? I thought that was a CG person... looked painful...
"to punish and enslave"
"Awesome."

What's the first image that pops in your head when you hear 'Michael Bay'?

"You know why the departures and the arrivals at LAX are on separate levels? So the 30,000 heartbreakers that come here each month don't notice the 30,000 that are leaving with their hearts broken."
The first thing I think of is not any 1 image but just ACTION. No matter what you think of his movies, they are not boring and his films keep me entertained. Then I got lucky enough to be in one of them (now 2). Never thought I would ever be in movies but you never know what the future holds. Hold onto your dreams and imaginations people. I may not be the next Will Smith or Denzel Washington but you never know. Just be cool towards everyone you meet, especially your fans and always take the time to take a pic with them or shake there hand and say hi. Stay Frosty (cool).
