For all u loyal cartoon /comic geeks,wannabee directors/critics. The average hard working ADULT, doesn’t really give a shit about a deep story. They don’t give a shit how much was spent or how it was made. Making money of of movies is fucken simple for the studios nowadays.

Action movie- must have action, blow shit up, a lot of ass kicking,a hott chick or two and to be “pretty” visually. Its. Eye candy.
Transformers 2 was the number 1 selling blue ray/dvd of 2009.

If people gave a shit about story his movies would not make millions worldwide. He is money to studios. No director commands the respect of our military or gets to play with their newest “toys” like he does. And u cannot deny the truth. So go ahead and get dressed for work at your 9-5 job and leave the million dollar playtime to the big boy. Michael Bay.

Ken Jeong is good on Community, but I’m always worried they’ll try to overuse him and force the comedy.
Oh, and he was great as the king in Role Models, another post Knocked Up appearance.

After Eragon, this is just the most recent in the long list of crappy movies Malkovich has been in.

i can totally see the type of character they are going for with Ken Jeong and it will be pathetic. as for Malkovich and McDormand.. all i can is that they are interesting choices. but it doesn’t really gets me excited for the movie one bit. Mr. Bay will make sure that he makes a bad movie.

I have a soft spot for Malkovich and anything he’s involved in it will grab my attention. Yes, he has sleep walked through stuff before, but since Transformers is guaranteed to suck, maybe he’ll realize how bad it is and ham it up, thereby making SOMETHING in the third installment watchable.

I like how the presence of John Malkovich in this is being seen as intriguing, like he hasn’t sleep-walked through similar nonsense (ie Eragon, Beowulf etc) for the past couple of decades. Big deal, in other words.

I wonder if Fran and John will get their paychecks cut directly to “Swedish Holding Company for Future Purchase of Island Property”!

You know I’m all for pro-choice, but I’m not going to willingly go watch an abortion on screen again after seeing Transformers 2. I’m still recovering from that one.

Easy money, they won’t even have to act well.

This is pandering at it’s finest. I still won’t watch it.

The paycheck these actors get must be something awesome for them to be willing to take part in this. Or simply they’d like to take part because it’s not often that they get the chance because nobody thinks of asking them.
