1. Explosions
I'm tired of having buildings, cars and just other inanimate objects in general explode in my face, and 3D hasn't exactly made it any better. Yes, I get the allure of seeing things get blown to smithereens accompanied by a loud bang and screams, but I sincerely think that the man's overdone this. It just assaults the senses now. But it hasn't prevented Michael Bay from going ahead and adding an explosion every time he doesn't know what's supposed to be happening in the scene. It's worse than the laughter track in The Big Bang Theory. Every time he thinks that the audiences might possibly getting bored he just puts another one of these in and laughs to himself with delight at having done a job well. Cars, planes, robots, robots that can become cars, robots that can become planes, ships, trains, people, robots that can become people (no, I'm not talking about Shia LaBeouf), buildings, sea ports, objects in the space Bay's gone and blown them all up. Here's wishing that the man abandons that habit. I know it can be more addictive than weed, but it's time Bay drop this façade that he uses to cover-up his inability by over-stuffing action scenes with enough pyrotechnics to distract from the awfulness of the actual substance. Do you think Michael Bay will score a win with Transformers 4? Share your thoughts below in the comments.
