More quotes by Michael Bay
Directing is not a job. It's more like a career. Which is great!
Michael Bay
The press don't like to say nice things because nice is boring. It's much better to label me the devil. What we do is not brain surgery. We are entertainers, plain and simple, and we're responsible to bring that money back, to make a profit.
Michael Bay
I was talking to one of the writers about our target audience, and he was insulted that I used that term. But if you're given $60 million to make a film, you'd better know who your target audience is. That's who's going to pay back the bills you run up.
Michael Bay
I go out there to win. People don't care if you die in this business. The only way I get back is with success.
Michael Bay
I don't change my style for anybody. Pussies do that.
Michael Bay
Why isn't everything exploding?!
Michael Bay
Some nights I sleep like a baby. Other nights it's, Oh God, I just came up with a bomb shot.
Michael Bay
Do you know what directors go through? It's just hell. Like, why do I work so hard - to think I'm only going to see this movie five times and then never see it again 'cause I'm so sick of it? What is it worth, honestly?
Michael Bay
Its... a hard thing for a director, to think you came up with a shot, something from your mind, and someone died while doing it. Its the worst thing youll ever have to live with. It was very hard for me to get back on the horse again.
Michael Bay
There are many movies that have done it very badly. The studios have gone for quick profits and audiences are feeling angry. People aren't taking the time and spending the money to do it right. I am.
Michael Bay
I'm done with effects movies for now. When you do a movie like 'Transformers,' it can feel like you're doing three movies at once - which is tiring.
Michael Bay
I love doing big movies. It's awesome! You have all these toys. The thing I like about this movie is, like they always say, directors have the biggest train sets! Don't tell anyone, but I'd do this for free.
Michael Bay
There are things that I invented - the creaky geriatric robot that is always grumpy, for example, or the little wheelie guy, he's not in the Hasbro lore. But kids love that stuff - this little guy as a pet on a chain. They gravitate towards it.
Michael Bay
A car is a big thing for anyone going into adulthood, it's a big seminal moment.
Michael Bay
I make movies that audiences like, that I'd want to see. That's all.
Michael Bay
Maybe I have just a younger voice than many other directors.
Michael Bay
I make movies for teenage boys. Oh, dear, what a crime.
Michael Bay
Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in 'Transformers.' I like to think that I've had some luck in building actors' careers with my films.
Michael Bay
I'm one of the few directors that actually shoots a lot in camera.
Michael Bay
When you're fast when you're shooting, there are great things that you discover. By being fast you also sometimes get more time to experiment.
Michael Bay
