your desperate need to defend bad movies made by a director who has himself stated about his career that "I make movies for teenage boys." Is becoming absurd, because you have so much invested in the defense of it. You said that all his movies are good, and went so far as to say that one was great. So your own personal opinion is completely clouding your objective views. Your enjoyment of it, has nothing to do with its quality, which is in fact poor, as rated objectively on every level of film-making, from writing, to acting, to plot, to characters etc.
Michael Bay makes movies that have zero character development, virtually ignores actors, are poorly written, and focus only on action. He ignores intelligence and acting to focus on visuals.
That is a recipe for a bad movie, which he makes and you enjoy.
It is strange that such a good director, who makes such good movies, has never once been recognized by the academy or the directors guild for his directing achievements and not one of his films has ever been nominated for a single award either, other than technical awards (best sound, best sound effects, best visual effects, )
no awards or even nominations for recognition of writing or acting or directing or film quality.
Not a thing.
One would expect such a good movie maker and his films to receive some sort of recognition by the DGA or the academy.
His films are shit, and you eat them up...nothing wrong with that. you can eat shit if you want and you can certainly enjoy it, but don't tell the rest of us it is chocolate when you do.
