Michael Bay killing off T.J. Miller who annoyed the shit out of him on set in an extremely brutal way before immediately flexing on his lifeless corpse with a money shot of a badass robot turning into his personal Lamborghini that he owns is why he's kinda GOAT'ed tbh

a good chunk of these films are made with like $10 and some are even filmed in active warzones where they still choose to make the movie out of passion for the craft and they're still more entertaining than most modern Hollywood action films. horrible thing to say, fuck you

it cannot be understated how cruel this film is. acts as a malicious hit piece against Amy, portraying her as a ditsy, unlikable cruise missile headed for own self-destruction from day one, and to top it off, they got a girl who can't even sing to play her. unbelievably evil shit
