I do not understand why you make these things into such a big deal?
I did not post on the HSX Boards for most of the summer because I feel that you respond to my posts in a tone suggesting that you want to have an argument with me.
On Monday, Hasbro updated the status of its movie projects and mentioned that they were in contact with Paramount, Michael Bay, and Steven Speilberg about another Transformer movie.
THR referenced Michael Bay as "director' in their story about the updates which confused alot of their readers into thinking that Bay could/would return to direct the next movie.
Many websites, newsites and blogs reported the misinterpreted news that Bay could/would be returning as director.
Today this false information reached Bay and he went on record to correct the false information.
Paul2K (translated) - Michael Bay corrects false reports that he will be directing the next Transformers movie
Antibody (translated) - This is not news, we knew he doesnt want to direct another Transformers and that he wants to direct Pain And Gain
RazorHawk (translated) - Paul2K is just posting that Michael Bay is correcting the false information that was spread on Monday
Antibody's response (translated) - Hasbro/THR didnt say Michael Bay would be directing the next Transformer movie
BANAL Fund - aka RazorHawk response (translated) - You are right Hasbro/THR did not say Michael Bay would be returning as director BUT many people misread the story and were under the impression that he was... here is a sampling of the false news that is being reported
Antibody's response (translated) - Who cares what false news is being reported out there?
This post by RazorHawk (translated) - The false news has spread and many people have read it. Even Michael Bay has heard it. It was reported on the Monday night news of my local TV station (FOX). Maybe some HSX players who do not read every post on the HSX Boards have heard this false news and have made investments based on it. Lets update and correct the false news and get back to playing HSX. HSX is a game and a community made up of people who work in the industry, near the industry and/or just like to have discussions about the industry and movies. It would be nice to come in here and participate in discussions without so much tension, arguing and debate.
He's not saying anything new. {nm} Oct 19, 11:42
The Transformers back-to-back shoot article was by Variety, which already reported Bay would shoot PAING first. Oct 19, 12:09
Hasbro doesn't mention Bay returning to direct in the THR article, since he's also an exec producer. {nm} Oct 19, 12:11

I was merely stating the facts and correcting your assumptions. What THR and Variety reported was not "wrong news". {nm} Oct 19, 15:49
But he's saying it while swimming in an even bigger pool of money than he was when he said it last time. {nm} Oct 19, 12:05
