9 Filmmakers Who Apologised For Their Movies

4. Michael Bay - Armageddon

Well, sort of. Armageddon is the male version of a weepie; explosions, manly men doing a tough mission but it also some gooey emotions too. It€™s not sophisticated entertainment but it is the ultimate guilty pleasure. When Bay was asked about it in an interview though he appeared to be disappointed with the end result. He said €œI will apologize for Armageddon, because we had to do the whole movie in 16 weeks.€ He felt this time squeeze really hurt the story, especially the ending. €œI would redo the entire third act if I could. But the studio literally took the movie away from us. It was terrible.€ Word of his apology spread quick, only for Bay to quickly put the brakes on it. He said his words were taken out of context, and that he offers no apologies for any of his movies. Which is fair enough, because if he was going to say sorry for anything it should be Skids and Mudflap from Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen.
