i really don't think McG is trying to copy Transformers or tap into its "big giant robot" genre at all.

I do love Bay and i've always backed his movies and i rooted for him since day one when spielberg chose him to direct transformers.but i have to say that Bay's cockiness is a bit unnecessary when he's bashing a movie such as terminator.Īlthough a bit weak, from what i gather, i think McG is right in saying that there's some obvious separation and therefore comparisons shouldn't be made between the two.

Plus it's fun to rile up fans and give them something to fight for in the end. As Sara asks: "Is this just a case of a few Hollywood boys fighting over their extremely explosive toys?" Probably, but that doesn't mean it's not fun to sit back and watch, right? We're obviously going to be judging these two movies in May and June (respectively) when they hit theaters anyway. I'm not trying to start a war between these two, because that's completely unnecessary. Not the kind of bold statement we were hoping to see, but then again, McG was surrounded by members of the press and he did his best to remain calm and collected. So, to have people have a problem with that wouldn't be working for us so we want to make sure there's separation." Our film's about T-800s and the Marcus character and the Connor character, and this, that, and the other. So we want to do everything we can to create separation. "I say with respect, giant robots have been the theme of film for a real long time. Ultimately, our large robots have nothing to do with the Transformers robots," McG said. We weren't in attendance, but Sara from Comcast was and has published McG's response for us to read. He was asked about Bay's statement and what he thought of the Transformers comparison. Well, now it's McG's turn to fire back! The director recently moderated a special presentation in New York City of Terminator Salvation footage. Last Friday, we published a quote from Michael Bay where he had made fun of "certain movies coming out" that were "trying to duplicate Transformer size robots in their ads." Bay's quipped, "Please, come on." Obviously he was taking a shot at McG and his giant Terminators.
