Love the look on Bay's face when he's introduced as a former advertising guy.

[@kd7luz88]

OMG!!! Priceless 😂😂😂

[@yesnickcarter]

That was great. But I was literally thinking about the Aaron Burr milk commercial last night. So he was one hell of an advertiser.

[@prilljazzatlanta5070]

@@yesnickcarterThat was Bay?!?!?!

[@yesnickcarter]

@@prilljazzatlanta5070 yes. he got his start in commercials. they say that’s why the Transformers popped the way they did. because he did automotive commercials. and the most memorable Got Milk commercial.

[@prilljazzatlanta5070]

@@yesnickcarter Thats crazy. I watched Armageddon for the first time a few nights ago and couldnt put my finger on what the cinematography reminded me of. I could only describe it as an obnoxious Kaminski. Then I saw this chain and immediately realized that it reminded of the lighting and camerawork from mid to late 90s commercials. Made my year already

[@gregoryberrycone]

michael bays finest work

[@dealerovski82]

Sadly true, it was all downhill from here. Armageddon still ok up until the last 20 min. Pear Harbour, disasters first hour. The Island, bad script and acting, Bad Boys 2, a joke, the Transformers I'm not even gonna mention.

[@adamsteele6148]

Only good bay movie. And that had more to do with producers and writers not him.

[@miguelrivera9599]

Pearl Harbor

[@jonathanbirch2022]

That’s because this was the last Bruckheimer/Bay movie produced by Don Simpson. After Simpson died, every Bay movie was total garbage!

[@THE.N1KO]

​@@dealerovski82what do you think about Ambulance?

[@johnmash4052]

Those two are legends...made my childhood awesome

[@mykal.7424]

The Rock till this day is Michael Bay best film .

[@johnlarson3312]

Missin' the days of ol' Bruck and Bay. Brothers 4 lyfe.

[@alphabetaxenonzzzcat]

This film and Bad Boys are Bay’s best films. It’s also great that it features Connery, Cage and Harris. It’s also has a chase through San Francisco with a Hummer versus Ferrari 355.

[@nox5870]

13 hours? I thought that film was very fucking good. Armaggedon is a guilty pleasure of mine 😎😂

[@Largentina.]

Cage, Harris, Connery...and Michael Biehn!

[@surajts7806]

Pearl harbour too

[@ryans413]

That’s amazing his first movie made over 100 million good credit to Bay for sure

[@dealerovski82]

Or Don.

[@stevenreid6054]

They made a James Bond film without getting sued

[@YARROWS9]

The Rock is a great Film and great Cast.

[@knightmarefuel4499]

“Who couldn’t make this movie!” I swear Charlie Rose was trying to piss Michael Bay off 🤣🤷🏼‍♂️

[@123rockfan]

Throughout the interview, Bruckheimer and Rose are acting like Bay is a zoo animal lol. They talk about him as though he isn’t in the room.

[@7Bubbly]

One of the best movies ☝️

[@jenniferannjolie2555]

What a great interview. I hope they do more interviews I can get into, but jerry needs to loosen up. He's so stiff. I love Michael Bay's answer how he became a director. So awesome!!

[@antona.1327]

That's before Michael Bay have lost his mind.

[@optimusprime5199]

He is still a great director. His films have bad scripts though.

[@bestmoviesever1]

optimus Transformer He should work with Chris Terrio.

[@racheljohnhyatt4028]

The rock is his highest rated film on rotten tamateos I can’t judge it since I haven’t seen it though the only movies Michel bay directed I’ve seen is transformers franchise.

[@nox5870]

@@racheljohnhyatt4028 Watch The Rock, Bad Boys 1 and 13 hours! They by far his best films and actually good films, Pain and Gain is alright and the first Transformers movie is actually pretty good also. Armaggedon is also not that bad, a guilty pleasure of mine with amazing visual effects.

[@dealerovski82]

@@nox5870 You can't be serious about Transformers, I walked out of that movie feeling insulted intellectually. Then I read years later there is a sequel and they gave that movie a score and a review I exactly would give the first movie word by word. Then I felt some remedy even tho it wasn't for the same movie.

[@jonathanbirch2022]

Jerry Bruckheimer looks like Chuck Norris

[@samueljamesonfern3245]

😂😅

[@dubyusmc]

One of my favorite movies.

[@codyspradling4821]

Bay is underappreciated

[@Superior_Productions]

Definitely

[@k.k8291]

Just the opposite

[@ethanholgate2512]

Very

[@RocStarr913]

He definitely has a talent for creating great scenes, but his movies lack pacing discipline.

[@theheavytruth6309]

I always thought bruckheimer and bay were same people.

[@user-le8md3xv5m]

Thanks for transformers, the rock, pain and gain and others

[@viktorwong9069]

Bad boys what you gonna do ~~~

[@gigigiseleworld]

Nice interview....

[@BuckRolly1]

When asked, Michael Bay was clearly unable to summarise the story of a movie HE directed and deferred to Bruckheimer... Kind of says it all

[@johncorr7154]

I wonder if it was that or if he's just a very nervous guy, and is afraid of screwing up. He was in a samsung tv talk and walked off stage after the teleprompter stopped. Probably though that he just cares more about the action sequences and doesn't pay attention to all of the story, yet he films so many sequences of government officials talking about stuff I'm inclined to think he has to pay attention to at least some of the plot.

[@ESW206]

You ignorant comment says it all

[@grantmalone]

Yeah, a story that Bruckheimer immediately describes as "very simple". Kinda sad to be honest.

[@123rockfan]

Pretty sure Bay has OCD or anxiety. So many symptoms show in this interview

[@RocStarr913]

Bay is clearly all id with how he directs, which is why his movies tend to be quite exhilarating yet incoherent.

[@UlreyProductionsfilm]

love it

[@v-trigger6137]

He is a teenager Lol

[@ChrisHillmon]

Michael has not aged at all. I mean look at him, seems like he's always manages to look the same.

[@darinlito8057]

I can tell this interview is from the 90s

[@julienbouchard-fontaine147]

John Mason is James Bond 😆

[@nemospodcast6766]

I worked with Michael BAY!!! The man is a genius I don’t give a shit what anyone says!

[@shrishri5587]

At what capacity did u work with him

[@blabbermouth777]

I agree but he waste his talents with multiple Transformers movie! I do like the first one. But The Rock and The Island were sheer genius. There are others I can’t think of right now but stop with Transformers movies.

[@gigigiseleworld]

Michael Bay has a great "👁️" ... 🎥

[@skycorrigan6511]

What did you allegedly work with him on?

[@RocStarr913]

He knows how to make great scenes. Great movies are another story. They are incoherent trash.

I quit drinking thank you for making it known ..... everybody is right. It's got to stop 😅 sorry 🙏

[@keffinmckn3602]

He shit all over my childhood memories with 🐢 and 🤖 🤖 but the Rock was very good

[@Torakan1]

Charlie Rose is the worst interviewer. Always talking too much, bumbling around and inadvertently insulting his guests. Don’t know how he made it so long

[@123rockfan]

At least it makes for an interesting interview lol. I dislike it when interviewers over praise the guests

[@shazanali692]

His style was the best, and he got good answers,. He is one of the best in my opinion, sadly his womaniser ways got him in the end
