I'd have imagined everything but this... still can't believe how this can happen to the biggest blockbuster in years...
It's very sad. Not only for Bay, but for Ewan and Scarlett too; they will probably have a hard time getting leading roles in big budget flicks again
The audience are too dumb to get the movie; "Clones, lottary, island - WTF is that? No, I'm watching Fantastic Four instead".
They should marketed this like THE MATRIX. I just posted this on rottentomatoes.com. It's my idea for the trailer: ...................
whatever, the important thing is to keep word of mouth positive so that it doesnt plummet next wkd like most movies....
I really feel bad for Michael....D(ream)W(orks) let him down.

I love your style, your editing rule. True, there have been film of yours that I didn't enjoy much but to me you are a filmmaker of pure genius.
Below is a tribute I wrote to Jerry Bruckheimer. I mentioned you in it and thought you might enjoy it. I think you're a visual genius.
How big are the chances that you're making Bad Boys III?
A friend of mine once did his MFA thesis on comparing Kubrick and Bay based on their visual styles.
I've got a 10 x 4 foot Pearl Harbor banner on my wall if that says anything.

Plot of "Man OF The House"
When five perky cheerleaders witness the murder of a drug bust informant, they require 'round-the-clock surveillance to keep from being the next victims. Enter tough-as-nails Texas Ranger Lt. Roland Sharp (Tommy Lee Jones), who masquerades as their assistant coach and camps out in their campus digs. But these feisty foxes just want to have fun, and the buttoned-down Sharp learns it's no easy task to keep the uncontrollable coeds in line and out of harm's way. Cedric the Entertainer joins this spirited cast in a comedy that busts out with high energy, pride, and the joy of a Texas Ranger getting in touch with his feminine side.
House notes (from Just Thunkin' 9/23/03)
For awhile I Sublet a room in New York city. These are actual highlights from the housenotes sent to me before I moved in.

"To open the toilet paper holder in the bathroom, simply push in the black button on the back of the holder and it will release the swing arm."
"Never, Ever put any sharp knives that are in the cutting block in the dishwasher or drainer. These are Naomi’s knives, and are to be used only for food preparation. She has requested that we use the knives, then promptly wash, dry and return them to their proper slot in the knife holder, she does not want them to be washed, and allowed to dry in the drainer, as the points may get bent, chipped or damaged. It is fairly easy once you get used to it."
"If you happen to know that you are going to be away overnight ahead of time or away for the weekend, please be so kind as to tell them, or by leaving a note on the refrigerator ‘writing pad’ so that the girls will not be expecting you and can properly turn off lights and lock doors at night, and know that they will not disturb you, since you will not be around. (By the way, the board on the fridge is cleaned by wetting a paper towel slightly and wiping off with water, and then drying it off). "
************ Ah, to be treated like an idiot. It took my weeks to figure out how to use the shower curtain. If you would like to rent from her, please call Naomi at 212 316-3334. She likes to be called well past midnight. Just tell them I sent you, and thank them for screwing me out of $500.
