'Transformers' Crew Members Absolutely Trash Megan Fox
Filed under: Celebrities and Controversy, Fandom

We usually don't wiggle ourselves around in the dirty celeb gossip of Hollywood, but this back-and-forth between Michael Bay and Megan Fox has been so much more entertaining than both Transformers films combined. The two have been lobbing insults at one another ever since Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen hit theaters, but when Fox recently compared working with Bay to working with Hitler, her words set off a firestorm that has now led to a ferocious, mean-spirited letter written by three Transformers crew members to magically appear on Michael Bay's own site.
The crew members, who wisely do not mention their names (though they give vague hints as to what their roles were on set) absolutely go off on Megan Fox, calling her (among other things) "dumb as a rock", "the grump of the set", "the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star" and "as about ungracious a person as you can ever fathom." Obviously Bay himself is aware of this letter since he actually allowed it to be posted on his own personal website, which pretty much cements the fact that neither of these two will ever work together again unless they're paid enough cash to ignore the feud. Does this mean Fox will be replaced in Transformers 3? And how will she respond to the accusations in this letter? I know it's lame of me to say, but I kinda can't wait to find out.
Check out the entire hilarious Transformers crew letter after the jump.
****************
This is an open letter to all Michael Bay fans. We are three crew members that have worked with Michael for the past ten years. Last week we read the terrible article with inflammatory, truly trashing quotes by the Ms. Fox about Michael Bay. This letter is to set a few things straight.
Yes, Megan has great eyes, a tight stomach we spray with glycerin, and an awful silly Marilyn Monroe tattoo plastered on her arm that we cover up to keep the moms happy.
Michael found this shy, inexperienced girl, plucked her out of total obscurity thus giving her the biggest shot of any young actresses' life. He told everyone around to just trust him on his choice. He granted her the starring role in Transformers, a franchise that forever changed her life; she became one of the most googled and oogled women on earth. She was famous! She was the next Angelina Jolie, hooray! Wait a minute, two of us worked with Angelina – second thought – she's no Angelina. You see, Angelia is a professional.
We know this quite intimately because we've had the tedious experience of working with the dumb-as-a-rock Megan Fox on both Transformers movies. We've spent a total of 12 months on set making these two movies.
We are in different departments; we can't give our names because sadly doing so in Hollywood could lead to being banished from future Paramount work. One of us touches Megan's panties, the other has the often shitty job of pulling Ms. Sour pants out of her trailer, while another is near the Panaflex camera that helps to memorialize the valley girl on film.
Megan has the press fooled. When we read those magazines we wish we worked with that woman. Megan knows how to work her smile for the press. Those writers should try being on set for two movies, sadly she never smiles. The cast, crew and director make Transformers a really fun and energetic set. We've traveled around the world together, so we have never understood why Megan was always such – the grump of the set?
When facing the press, Megan is the queen of talking trailer trash and posing like a porn star. And yes we've had the unbearable time of watching her try to act on set, and yes, it's very cringe-able. So maybe, being a porn star in the future might be a good career option. But make-up beware, she has a paragraph tattooed to her backside (probably due her rotten childhood) easily another 45 minutes in the chair!
So when the three of us caught wind of Ms Fox, pontificating yet again in some publication (like she actually has something interesting to say) blabbing her trash mouth about a director whom we three have grown to really like. She compared working with Michael, to "working with Hitler". We actually don't think she knows who Hitler is by the way. But we wondered how she doesn't realize what a disgusting, fully uneducated comment this was? Well, here let's get some facts straight.
Say what you want about Michael – yes at times he can be hard, but he's also fun, and he challenges everyone for a reason – he simply wants people to bring their 'A' game. He comes very prepared, knows exactly what he wants, involves the crew and expects everyone to follow through with his or her best, and that includes the actors. He's one of the hardest working directors out there.
He gets the best from his crews, many of whom have worked with him for 15 years. And yes, he's loyal, one of the few directors we've encountered who lowered his fee by millions to keep Transformers in the United States and California, so he could work with his own crew.
Megan says that Transformers was an unsafe set? Come on Megan, we know it is a bit more strenuous then the playground at the trailer park, but you don't insult one of the very best stunt and physical effects teams in the business! Not one person got hurt!
And who is the real Megan Fox? She is very different than the academy nominee and winning actors we've all worked around. She's as about ungracious a person as you can ever fathom. She shows little interest in the crew members around her. We work to make her look good in every way, but she's absolutely never appreciative of anyone's hard work. Never a thank you. All the crewmembers have stopped saying hi to Ms. Princess because she never says hello back. It gets tiring. Many think she just really hates the process of being an actress.
Megan has been late to the sets many times. She goes through the motions that make her exude this sense of misery. We've heard the A.D's piped over the radio that Megan won't walk from her trailer until John Turturro walks first! John's done seventy-five movies and she's made two!
Never expect Megan to attend any of the 15 or so crew parties like all the other actors have. And then there's the classless night she blew off The Royal Prince of Jordan who made a special dinner for all the actors. She doesn't know that one of the grips daughters wanted to visit their daddy's work to meet Megan, but he wouldn't let them come because he told them "she is not nice."
The press certainly doesn't know her most famous line. On our first day in Egypt, the Egyptian government wouldn't let us shoot because of a permit problem as the actors got ready in make up at the Four Seasons Hotel. Michael tried to make the best of it; he wanted to take the cast and crew on a private tour of the famous Giza pyramids. God hold us witness, Megan said, "I can't believe Michael is fucking forcing us to go to the fucking pyramids!" I guess this is the "Hitler guy" she is referring to.
So this is the Megan Fox you don't get to see. Maybe she will learn, but we figure if she can sling insults, then she can take them too. Megan really is a thankless, classless, graceless, and shall we say unfriendly bitch. It's sad how fame can twist people, and even sadder that young girls look up to her. If only they knew who they're really looking up to.
But 'Fame' is fleeting. We, being behind the scenes, seen em' come and go. Hopefully Michael will have Megatron squish her character in the first ten minutes of Transformers 3. We can tell you that will make the crew happy!

I find it ridiculously sad that society idolizes and throws a ton of money at people this immature. If it wasn't bad enough that random insults are being thrown back and forth, but it's being done on the internet...a virtual world, that's pretty sad.
Unfortunately people will never learn because that's what society is today, a bunch of immature people that know nothing, and basically suck at life. aka. Michael Bay and Megan Fox

I understand them trying to let the public know how unpleasant she is to work with, but I think that taking shots at her childhood is pretty low.

I keep reading all these updates, trying to figure out who the good guy is here, but I realized that there really isn't one. It's a whole bunch of finger-pointing and name calling from two very immature individuals.

Unfortunately, when things get this messy, there are no real winners, just a bunch of mud on everyone's faces. It would be nice if that M.F. B...h, would just apologize for saying stupid things about someone who has given her chances. In my world, people should have some obligation to those around them, especially those who teach them and help them in this sometimes difficult life. Besides, I would give my eyeteeth just to be an extra in a Michael Bay flick!

Sadly enough I believe almost every word they have written about her. Hell you can look in her eyes and tell there's nothing there.

The whole name bashing back and forth is very childish, but once it starts it can be extremely damaging to one persons career because that's what people believe. Michael Bay can be an angry guy, but its an act. I have worked with him as well and know he wants to keep things moving but it's not really the kind of person he is. Megan Fox, being a young actress blossoming might have made her worst move ever trash talking a director. What kind of producer or director will want to work with her worrying about what an actress feels about them? There are tons of beautiful actresses in Hollywood that can fill those shoes and almost all of them (especially who I have worked with) are extremely nice people. Karma can be a bitch.

Perhaps they should have commented on the "Just act hot" direction he allegedly gave her. Maybe this is all a consequence of that.

Uh, for some reason I'm not imagining a crew of people writing that. Only one man: Michael Bay.
Well I guess nobodies graceful enough to shut up so the tennis game us stupidity can end. Here's hoping they do , though.

I've seen too many movies Bay has been in charge of to think that he could ever write anything that internally consistant and logical. It has to be legit.

Two adults behaving like kids. And, I agree with Jared #2. Was it necessary to bring up and attack her childhood? Mr. Bay should resolve this personal issue without involving everyone else. Grow up!

Listen, I'm not a huge fan of Michael Bay or Megan Fox to be honest. And yes some of the things Fox has said are questionable at best and these "Loyal Crew Members" are patronizing her on her lack of tact; and yet here they are on the internet writing a gut-less anonymous letter; spewing insults and for what purpose? Fox's stock may drop one percent because of this but at the same time she'll pick up sympathy as well. She may not be a nice person but the crew members are no better. They act like it's upon them to save Michael Bay's reputation. If Michael Bay gave a damn about his reputation he would have made a good movie by now.

Michael Bay is a disphit I mean lets face it hes the worse thing to happen to movie making in god knows how long.
With a proud heritage of great directors of the past like Hitchcock and Woody Allen and some fantastic directors right now like Cameron, Del Toro, Christopher Nolan and Ridley Scott movie making is an art form and the artists really do give it everything.
Look at Cameron for example. The way he has gone about promoting Avatar. Avatar cost a metric ton of money to make and even the nerds are unsure about whether or not they are excited by it but even if we take it up it doesn't mean non-nerds(ie 99.97% of moviegoers) will.
Thats the kind of confidence Cameron has though. He can work on something unique and different and not do the same sequelised bullshit with lots of explosions. THAT is a good director.
Del Toro and Peter Jackson are both amazing directors as well. Del Toro has amazing vision and can create unique experiences. I rewatched Pans Labyrinth a few times and I thought the movie was brilliant but it only one viewing for me to realise there weren't enough explosions and the like for the movie to be a box office success.
So heres Mr Del Toro and hes given a good budget to make a movie and instead of making some dumbed down popcorn flick, making a fortune and getting himself a lot of acclaim he says screw that I'll make a GOOD movie regardless of whether or not it makes hundreds of millions or doesn't launch me into the limelight as a big money maker.
Everybody on the other hand knows how Peter Jackson was constricted with a terrible burden, a low budget for what he was shooting. A movie so big it was hard to work out how he'd pull it off and he had to shoot all three movies at the same time. He fought tooth and nail just to see that movie happen and the circumstances were far from ideal yet he was so in love with Tolkiens world and had such great vision he was able to pull it off.
Thats labour of love and thats what makes cinematic masterpieces.
The Dark Knight made a billion dollars and is the second highest grossing movie of all time. When Mr Michael Dipshit Bay saw how well Transformers did he came running back to do Transformers 2 because his only motivation is money.
Now Christopher Nolan spent a while on a project that is likely to make less than a fraction of what a new Batman movie would. Rumours are he may not even return to the helm as he wants a good story and a third great movie and no matter how much money is thrown at his feet he won't do it till he has a clear good vision.
Thats what a director is about. These men will be remember for a long time due to their contributions to film and these men are real directors.
Cinematography has been around for so long it's nice to see there are still shining beacons of light trying to drive the craft further and possessing real passion and drive to make the best and entertain us in many ways.
People like Michael Bay are the opposite of what people like Del Toro and Peter Jackson stand for and its a shame to see a shiny turd doing as well as pure gold.

I'm not a fan of Bay or Fox. But Fox has proven that most of these criticisms are founded in nearly every interview she gives from the arrogance to the mindlessness.
She should stop wasting everyone's time and just jump into porn.
Her body is the only reason anyone gives her any time at all...unless she has some hidden acting talent like Sam Worthington.
Ya know what Megan Fox and Sam Worthington would a great porno duo. Now that's a movie worth making.
