Movie-Holic

It would seem that Paramount is trying to get things moving along a little faster than some people would like. Michael Bay, the director for the first two Transformer movies is now saying that Paramount made a mistake.

Bay, who posted on his own forum the little date snafu, says that he did agree to an Independence week opening. The only thing is that it is actually in 2012! That’s a little more like it.

Stating that after final wrap ups are completed for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen he wanted to take some time off to recuperate from the hectic schedule they’ve been on. But, in order to meet a 2011 release date he would have to start production in September. And that’s just not gonna happen. “No way,” writes Bay. “I said I was taking a year off from Transformers.”

I don’t blame him. The intensity that must go into making a film the magnitude of Transformers must be off the charts!

I can only hope that Paramount isn’t serious about this 2011 business. I think it will hurt the movie, and I do believe that if they want to continue on this that they might lose Bay as the director. And that just won’t do.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is scheduled to make an appearance on June 24th. I probably won’t be able to wait another three years, but if it means a better movie… I’ll have to suffer.
