Michael Bay Is Still a @#$%ing Liar
 |
?Hey there! Remember how Michael Bay was so offended by talk that he was considering directing a fourth Transformers movie that he went on his blog to specifically deny such allegations? From Vulture:
Michael Bay is in final negotiations to direct a new Transformers film, insiders tell Vulture.
…
Another insider familiar with the situation cautioned that while Paramount “does not have a closed deal” with Bay, the studio “is not far from closing” on one, either, and that an announcement could come as early as next week. Meanwhile, the details of the next cyborg saga are being kept secret, but we’re told that it is definitely not a prequel, and that it will delve deeper into the Transformers canon to mine older characters and lore. “Regular people might not care about bringing out a character like Sentinel Prime,” says one of our insiders, referring to the little-known character who played a major part in last summer’s Transformers: Dark of the Moon, “But believe me, fans of the series cared.”
“Cared”? Sure. “Liked”? Not so much. Fuck. Fuckweevils. Fuck-a-doodle-doo. Fucking fuckstained fuckbaskets. FUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKK.
