Michael Bay In Poorly-Written Email Outburst… ‘Shock’?
In a shocking indictment of the state of movie directors and their grasp of the English language, Michael Bay has unleashed a furious and poorly-written email in the direction of Paramount's bigwigs. Bay's email came as a result of what he perceived to be a lack of marketing behind his new vehicle of childhood butchery, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. While the content of the email, dated May 4th, isn't that much of a shocker, the man who likes things to blow up committed the cardinal sin of writing "of" in place of "have". More than once. He must be a hecklerspray writer-in-training.

Paramount Wants Marvel To Churn Out A Million Films Forever
Thank heavens Marvel started making its own movies - without it we'd have never known what Edward Norton would be like in a crappy Incredible Hulk flick. And because Marvel has been so brilliant at churning out one successful movie that everybody likes and one mediocre movie that everyone instantly forgets about a nanosecond after leaving the cinema, that can only mean one thing. More Marvel movies! Paramount has just signed a deal to globally release the next five Marvel films. Since that includes Thor and Captain America, Paramount probably thinks it's got a pretty sweet deal going on. But it should have read the contract in more detail - the other three movies are about Dazzler, 8-Ball and an utterly pointless shot-for-shot remake of Daredevil, this time with all the characters played by Ben Affleck. Eat it, Paramount!
