Horrors! Michael Bay borrows stock footage from The Island for Transformers 3! Surely Walt Disney and company would never do such a thing!

Yes, Michael Bay borrowed a scene from The Island and used it in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.  Horror of horrors!  Yes, Mr. Bay borrowed a bit of highway mayhem in order to avoid re-shooting a stunt where a stunt woman was seriously injured and/or actually putting the take where she got injured into the movie.  The fiend!  Obviously a true artist, say someone like Walt Disney and the Disney animation department would never do such a thing right?  Right?  Oh... right.

  1. Oh the horrors! Comparing Michael Bay to Walt Disney. Then, again what do I know. I liked The Island.

  3. I only truly dislike 2 Bay movies: Armageddon and Pearl Harbor. I hated Titanic, too. I almost had my girl card revoked over that. LOL! I hate any fake overwrought romance.

    I didn't even hate Transformers 2. This last one was a little slow because IMHO it had too much Shia and not enough everyone else. I loved evil Patrick Dempsey and John Malkovich as Bruce.
