Say it ain't sooo: Bay calls it quits

Money, violence, sex, computer graphics, scatalogical humor, racism, robots designed to be rednecks but given European accents, and maybe another sequel to the saga... what's not to love? TF m1, Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon and now Age of Extinction.

I'm really thinking more along the lines of lifetime sewing for the suit.... Show business, he'd just be showing off what he can do so damage to the suit would be minimal. Crime fighting on the other hand, he's practically fixing the costume daily, and being as complicated a costume it is, that wouldn't make fixing it any easier. Not to mention, he'd be needing to make extras as the costumes get destroyed.

Hence why I said, it was designed for show business. It'd be a pain to make once, but as a crime fighter, he's sewing it non-stop.

Nah, dig it, I got the ultimate weapon here:

Either way, it's funny and it just shows the amount of thought that went into those stories. At the time, I don't think anyone else had to worry about maintaining or losing their suit.

So right, who has other director ideas? I'm about out of the top director-types I can think of. Unless, screw it. Cohen Brothers.

I dunno what you're getting so worked up about. I was just commenting Peter does a lot more sewing as a result of being a crime fighter.

Anyway, O6 mentioned a while back "Nolanverse Transformers". I think he'd be an interesting choice. His films tend to be pretty dark, but very good.

It's a joke about how we've been arguing about All Hail Megatron for the last, oh, six months or so?

All in all, I think he's a good director, but I haven't seen much of his non-Batman work. The Prestige was kickass, though.

I don't really know if TF is something Nolan would tackle. I also fear it may be so..'tainted' by Michael Bay's influence that we'll never get a good movie directed by a good director. Alas.

Nah. It *definitely* won't be anytime soon, that's for sure, but maybe ten or fifteen years down the line--then someone will *definitely* think of rebooting the films. And it probably won't be anyone we've even heard of right now.
