Transformer 2 - dig on Michael Bay

So we are all waiting for Transformer 2... no, I don't. and so as
Short Shing. The reason is simple - the first one is a weak one. You
can simply see why Michael Bay, the director, has been critizinf for
providing shallow script which is full of bug holes.

I'm not trying to be a pretentious-movie-geek-think-he-has-taste-who-
loves-art-movies-and-gives-shits-to-blockbusters. Instead, I have to
tell you I'm always a commercial-tasted-shit-knowing bloke. With an
Iggy Pop recalling face(as least I think so), MB doesn't give you any
punk rock. He is stadium rock, hair metal with a taste of glam... so
he is big budget guy... so I've watched his movies quite a bit.

Me on MB, bad boys is good, the rock is great, armmagedon is sweet.
The point is, MB can also shit you Pearl Habour. When it comes to
commercial action movies, you can still make it lovable...you guys all
love Titanic deep from your little heart, dun you? it's really a good
action movie, exciting, fighting, people saved, people died people
killed... thought it sucks as a love story, shallow and empty.

So it's not about commercial vs art. just the first transfomer is
weak. when an action movie is good enough, you can be long live as
Terminator 2, Alien 2 or Saving Private Ryan. You dun give awkward
twist, you dun lose rhythm, you dun out of focus, you dun bring the
audience running around without giving any clues.

But, I still think I'll go and get it....I love visual effect so
much....
