Wasn't There A Carl's Jr Commercial Like This?

No, this really isn't just an excuse to post a picture of Megan Fox.  I truly adore this story.

In the ongoing saga of the "he said, she said" between the lovely Ms. Fox and director Michael Bay, Page Six revealed today that apparently the audition process between the two for the first Transformers movie involved her washing his Ferrari while Michael Bay videotaped it.

Yep, you read that right.  Michael Bay shot his own "Cheerleader Car Wash" scene from Bring It On at his house - with Megan Fox.

Now, I'll let you write your own erotic fiction about what happened from there - which I'm sure is actually all over the Internet by now (I'll let you Google it and find out.)  But the story gets a little better as when reached for comment, Megan confirmed the existence of such a tape but remarked that she wasn't sure where it had gone.  When Bay was reached for comment, he said the same.

Uh huh.

I know if I had video of a young and desperate Megan Fox washing my car, I'd probably misplace it as well.  Wouldn't you?

More Than Meets The Eye?

Earlier this week, news broke that Universal was developing a Transformers attraction for both the Hollywood and Singapore parks. The news was met by initial apathy from me because I think the last the last time Universal made an effort to really put something special in the Hollywood park was Jurassic Park [although I haven't been to the park in years.]

But as the press release went on, it quickly sounded like this was no mere stunt show or small add-on to the Tram Ride or any number of "quick-fix" attractions that Universal Hollywood is known for. This sounded like a serious effort to put a high-dollar, high-entertainment attraction in the park. So, I was cautiously enthused by the announcement and started wondering if Universal putting big money into Transformers and Harry Potter [in Florida] would drive the Mouse to step up their game as well.

I remain enthused - but I had to share Michael Bay's thoughts on the project because... well, he's a jackass. An incredibly rich jackass but a jackass nonetheless. Take a look...

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 - 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 bullsh*t 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????

It's an amazing thing to see someone who is pretty much treated as a punchline to most "bad director" jokes take himself so seriously.

But hey, he's rich and making a movie that I'd gladly kill him to have the chance to make so I guess I have little ground to stand on.
