Bay Reveals Why Fox Fired From “Transformers”

Bay Reveals Why Fox Fired From “Transformers”

June 21, 2011 By Michael Hickerson 5 Comments

Another day, another reason Megan Fox was fired or left the Transformers franchise.

Director Michael Bay says the actress made the mistake of offended producer Steven Spielberg with comments in which she compared Bay to Hitler.

Bay says he got a call from Spielberg telling him to fire Fox from the production.

Fox’s original comments were, “He’s like Napoleon and he wants to create this insane, infamous mad-man reputation. … He wants to be like Hitler on his sets, and he is.”

We can only imagine that Fox’s PR team is currently readying to fire back at Bay and Spielberg.

    This is the lamest saga since “Why Was Jar Jar Banished?”

    Typical Hollywood bullshit. They seem to think we give a toss who said what to who now.

    I really have to believe that Steven Speilberg is above those sort of comments that compare people to Hitler are fairly common. I don’t think he took what she said personally but I think Michael Bay did.

    According to Godwin’s Law, the fight between Bay and Fox is now ended, and Fox has lost (unless the claim is false, which means that Bay has lost).
