Michael Bay Not Okay with The Transformers Ride?

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.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen was released June 24th, 2009 and stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, John Turturro, Ramon Rodriguez, Kevin Dunn, Julie White. The film is directed by Michael Bay.

    i'm pretty sure the ride won't be up and running til all parties are happy (Bay included). i hope it involves a naked Transformer.

    Comic Book Guy, your a big fat f*ckin 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.

    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.

    F*ck 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.
