In case you missed it, Michael Bay (TRANSFORMERS 2) slighted McG’s TERMINATOR: SALVATION trailer by posting the following on his blog:
“Okay it’s time to turn up the heat on “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.” We’ve waited low in the weeds letting all the summer movies get their stuff out… We’ve seen the great year end movies, and watched the upcoming clips of the upcoming summer fare. We’ve seen certain movies coming out even trying to duplicate “Transformer” size robots in their ads. Please, come on.”
And of course, McG was not gonna stand around at let this dude play him, so he hit back with:
“It bothers me to tell you the truth. Ultimately, our large robots have nothing to do with the “Transformers” robots… I say with respect, giant robots have been the theme of film for a real long time . So we want to do everything we can to create separation,” he continued. “Our film’s about T-800s and the Marcus character and the Connor character, and this, that, and the other. So, to have people have a problem with that wouldn’t be working for us so we want to make sure there’s separation.”
Meh. How tame. Nothing compared to the glory of THIS clip. Also, is it just me or does the Harvester in the T4 trailer look way better than the Transformers ever did?
