Megan Fox slammed Transformers director Michael Bay for focusing more on special effects than acting, but he doesn’t mind.

“Well, that’s Megan Fox for you,” Bay tell the Wall Street Journal. “She says some very ridiculous things because she’s 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do.

“You roll your eyes when you see statements like that and think, ‘Okay Megan, you can do whatever you want. I got it,’” he goes on.

Fox told Entertainment Weekly: “I mean, I can’t s— on this movie because it did give me a career and open all these doors for me. But I don’t want to blow smoke up people’s a–. People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting.”

Bay says he “100 percent disagrees” with Fox.

“Nick Cage wasn’t a big actor when I cast him, nor was Ben Affleck. before I put him in Armageddon. Shia LaBeouf wasn’t a big movie star before he did Transformers — and then he exploded. Not to mention Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, from Bad Boys,” he points out.

Bay thinks Fox could be a little more grateful, though.

“Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in Transformers,” he says. “I like to think that I’ve had some luck in building actors’ careers with my films.”

The battle for Earth has ended but the battle for the universe has just begun. After returning to Cybertron, Starscream assumes command of the Decepticons, and has decided to return to Earth with force. The Autobots believing that peace was possible finds out that Megatron’s dead body has been stolen from the US Military by Skorpinox and revives him using his own spark. Now Megatron is back seeking revenge and with Starscream and more Decepticon reinforcements on the way, the Autobots with reinforcements of their own, may have more to deal with then meets the eye.

Let me just start out by saying that I loved the first Transformers. I thought it was smart, witty, hilarious and the special effects were amazing.  Sure, whenever the robots opened their mouth -you had to laugh, but still, I really enjoyed it!

But I didn’t enjoy the sequel as much. I thought it was funny only a few times, and in almost 3 hours - you need comedy to keep it going.  The robots were bigger - and “scarier” in this movie, and there were lots more of them.  Maybe that’s what killed it for me - just too much of everything!  The special effects really were amazing. More than once I caught my mouth open, just thinking “how in the world did they do that!”  But unfortunately, all this movie really has to offer, is special effects.

Shia Labeouf is awesome. I’m not going to say anything mean about him.  I love me some “Shala Laboof” as my kids call him. Megan Fox on the other hand, I don’t mind being mean to her! While she’s beautiful, no denying that, she can’t act to save her life.  Her lines are painfully delivered - and I almost felt bad for her. She has to be one of the worst actresses out there. At least she looks pretty!

Bottom line? I thought it was entertaining, but it was just too much.  Too loud, too many robots, too long, too many stupid one liner’s.   I’m sure it will make a ton of money, and there are plenty of people who are going to love it. But I’m just not one of them. I thought it was for the most part, pretty stupid.

But that’s just me!

Michael Jackson’s death may have overshadowed Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen as the top entertainment story of the weekend, but it didn’t hamper its box-office performance. After opening to an astounding $60.6 million on Wednesday, the PG-13 rated robot mash-up has grossed an estimated $201 million over its first five days, second only to The Dark Knight’s 5-day opening of $203 million. Its Friday-Sunday total reached $112 million, the best three-day opening this summer. IMAX screens accounted for $14.4 million.

What do you think of her dress?  Have any of you seen Transformers yet? What did you think?

Hollywood beauty Megan Fox has been called the ‘Dumbest Celebrity Ever’ by a British tabloid, just hours after being voted ‘World’s Sexiest Woman’.

The ‘Transformers’ star drew flak for her call to legalize cannabis and her obsession with her looks.

“The American has amazed fans with her ignorance as she travels the world promoting her movies with red-carpet comments and magazine interviews,” wrote Daily Mail in a report counting down the 23-year-old’s gaffes.

During a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Fox had questioned her own mental health saying, “I think that I’m so psychotic and so mentally ill that if I could tap into that I could do something really interesting.”

The stunner had also recently criticized fellow actress Scarlett Johannson for her intellectual attempts.

“I don’t want to have to be like a Scarlett Johansson, I don’t want to have to go on talk shows and pull out every single SAT word I’ve ever learned to prove like, ‘Take me seriously, I am intelligent, I can speak.’” Fox had said.

Production on Megan Fox’s new movie, Jonah Hex, was stopped last week after a fire broke out on the set.

She’s been filming the comic book adaptation alongside Josh Brolin in New Orleans, but production came to a halt after a movie explosion set fire to surrounding buildings and had spread to neighboring grassland.

A source said, “They were shooting in the St. Francisville area, and some explosion set everything around it on fire, but they kept filming for 60 minutes to catch the authenticity. I don’t think anyone was hurt but for some historic buildings and land.”

I guess Kim Kardashian will do whatever it takes to keep her name in the news. Even if it is saying that she has a crush on “Transformers” star, Megan Fox.

Kim has revealed that she has a major “girl crush” on Megan. She said, “I’m totally a Megan Fox fan. That’s really the only reason I’m here. Megan Fox is so hot. She is like my girl crush and I don’t have girl crushes. She’s probably his girl crush too”, she said as she pointed to Reggie.
