Michael Bay Not Okay with The Transformers Ride?

Source:  Michael Bay
Despite a press release from Universal Studios saying that Michael Bay had approved their upcoming Transformers theme park attraction, Bay announced via his own blog that he isn't yet happy with what they have presented him. In an official statement, the director said:
"The Transformer Ride at Universal making all the press rounds - not sure yet - they had me in a press release saying I supported it - but Universal has a long way to go in my mind. I don't support it yet - I'm not involved and not sure the story of the ride works, and I know Optimus is not going to just show up to be directed by some new people that have never worked with him. I hate when people bullshit a quote from me that I never said. I'll keep you informed. Maybe the guy making the rides at Universal will direct Transformers 3????"

The Transformers Universal theme park attraction is set for a 2011 premier date.

Comic Book Guy, your a big fat fuckin idiot. He's just concerned with the legitimate and continuality in it. And FYI Universal is not making the movie, just the ride.

i bet the "Transformer" ride is just going to be where you sit down and your seat starts to move.

Dreamworks and Universal do not own Transformers Moviemaniac, Hasbro does, and they can do whatever they want with the licensing. The ONLY thing that Dreamworks/Paramount can do is sue or seek some type on compensation if the ride has any relation with the movies.

October 26th, 2008 6:43pm
Gee, I was under the impression that uh, ya know, Transformers was owned by Dreamworks and Paramount, NOT Universal. DUH comic book guy. He is most certainly NOT hired by Universal.
  (Delete)
October 26th, 2008 5:41pm
Fuck Michael Bay he's just pissed that he won't get any money for anything invold with the ride. He may be a gifted director but he has to realise that the "Transformers" property is owned solely by Hasbro and is licensed to Universal Studios to make into movies. And he's hired by Universal to direct. So shut up and know your role bitch. Don't worry you'll get a paycheck soon enough stop crying.

There's been a lot of lying going around in Hollywood lately You joking Chad thats been since the beginning of time, if execs think that people will go on the rides because Michael said it thats more money, it's shocking this world is getting more and more based around money.... and anyway who cares what michael thinks..
