Michael Bay hits back at "insulting" Transformers critics

*Director Michael Bay jumped to the defence of his _Transformers_
movies when journalists dared to brand first sequel _Revenge Of The
Fallen_ a flop.*

During a press conference for the third _Transformers_ film –
subtitled _Dark Of The Moon_ – Bay was asked if he was worried
_Transformers 3_ would be a flop like _Transformers 2_.

Never one to mince his words, Bay responded: “Your comment is a
little insulting to the artists who worked on this. The movie did make
a lot of money.

“I admit it's not one of my better films. It's by far not the
worst film ever made; that's just false... The movie doesn't make $835
million being the worst film.”

The director went on to explain why _Revenge Of The Fallen_
wasn’t quite as good as the first film in the franchise.

“We had a writers' strike during movie two, so it was a tough
game getting it going,” he says.

“It really wasn't fair to the writers because normally a movie
like this would take eight months to write and, because of the strike,
the writers had about three, so it was a complicated, rough process
making that movie.

“On the third one we tried to get it right and really deliver
and I think we did. It's the best of the three, personally, to
me.”

_Transformers: Dark Of The Moon_ opens 29 June 2011.
