    What a loser - couldn't wing saying cool thing about what you do for a living and how that might look great on a big ass tv?

    What a moron. Megan Fox was right.

        The first time Bay has ever let the lack of a script stop him.

              Ugh poor guy!! That must have been soul crushing for him.

              Anyway, MICHAEL BAY IS A FILM GENIUS and he deserves all of our love and respect.

                the only decent movie he's ever done was the rock, *maybe* armegeddon.

                other than that he's over-hyped. transformers? pfft. 3rd grade level entertainment.

                certainly not for adults.

                          Michael Bay apologizes, sort of (from MB's Blog):

                          Wow! I just embarrassed myself at CES ? I was about to speak for Samsung for this awesome Curved 105-inch UHD TV. I rarely lend my name to any products, but this one is just stellar. I got so excited to talk, that I skipped over the Exec VP?s intro line and then the teleprompter got lost. Then the prompter went up and down ? then I walked off. I guess live shows aren?t my thing.

                          But I?m doing a special curved screen experience with Samsung and Transformers 4 footage that will be traveling around the world.

                          Michael
                          Big time Director can't speak without a script, and loses his cool - epic meltdown.

                                  Michael Bay may be considered a hack by film snobs, but he's accomplished more than all of us put together 100 times over. You try being in charge of 3 Transformers movies.

                                    Agreed. And then there's this

                                    http://www.celebritynetworth.com/ric...bay-net-worth/

                                    So he went on stage to push a new TV format (curved wide screen), and the prompter fucked up, and he ran of stage. No big deal. Most everyone is scared to speak in public and I'm sure the guy's completely embarrassed. I bet the comedy kings will have fun with that video for a while...

                                      the prompter didn't fuck up, he went off the prompter queues. he does however try to blame it on the prompter so his asskissers can kiss more ass

                                      it's in the link in the op.

                                      I skipped over the Exec VP's intro line and then the teleprompter got lost.

                                                Had he even GLANCED at the script on his charter plane while coming in, he could have spewed a couple talking points, maybe made a joke, and left gracefully - even if crazy early.

                                                But no, he couldn't be bothered and made a total fucking ASS of himself. Sucks to be Michael Bay.

                                                    certainly not for adults.
                                                    Oh I don't know. The recent Pain and Gain was alright and Bad Boys is an amazing movie.

The guy looked like he froze and didn't know what to do. He didn't storm out, he didn't lose his mind he just froze from what I see. Doesn't make him a moron in my books.

                                                                                it LOOK and SOUNDS like Transformers (No I mean it REALLY looks and sounds like Transformers), but its a Peter Berg movie. It's just as cheesy and cliched as Transformers and is just as cool to watch. Just check your brain at the door.
