Apologies for the double post, but bit more info here ^. Still a stupid thing to do but sounds like they were angry because of missing out on 'disturbance fees' paid to local business owners.

sucks for those guys, but if they got cheated out of money that sucks, I feel even worse for the cops getting injured.

Disgruntled Transformers/TMNT fans?
They weren't yelling "WHITEWASHER!!!" while hitting him, were they?

According to a Michael Bay-penned post (repeated on tfw2005) the troublemakers WERE paid something, but wanted more than the standard.

Sad to see this happen, but that's what karma gets you.
Surprised Bay didn't go to the hospital or leave that third world country.

There are some definite jojos out there. And Cubed, you really are obsessed with this new movie to the point of disfunction.

No one deserves being attacked. If you think he deserves it, then you are no better than his attackers.

I'm sorry, but if you think someone deserves to be physically assaulted because of the movies they make, you're either someone who takes movies way too seriously, someone who is between the age of 10 and 17, or both.
On the other hand, most people are pretty lousy, and DO deserve to get their ass kicked for some reason or other. But the fact they make mostly sh*tty movies isn't a very good reason. I'm sure Bay's no saint, and if, for example, he keyed someone's car, or called his assailant a "goofy, slope-eyed Ch*nk", he'd deserve it, sure. I'm sure Michael Bay The Person has done lots of things that would merit assault. We all have.
But not for making mediocre movies. Come on, guy.

Well, I know those Transformers fans hated the films a lot but he doesn't deserve to be attacked like that :-?
I do however hope he does the turtles justice.
Well, he doesn't deserved being attacked... What he deserves is the removal of him from the movie industry, permanently.

No, he wants him removed from the movie industry. Meaning...not making any more movies. How did you get "death" out of that?

Because they watch too many movies and in the movies "permanently" means death. Or at least in the mobster movies. :tlol: And then it's often followed by laughter or eating in a back room of a mob-owned restaurant. But I agree with Leo, no one deserves to be assaulted for making movies you disapprove of.

First of all: karma?! the hell are you talking about?!
Second: Hong Kong is not a country, it's a city. And it certainly isn't "third world".
Third: "Third world" is an outdated term. Get in with the times.

Any guess what 80's treasure Bay will ruin next? I'm pulling for Turbo Teen.
Permanently? You mean like death?
More like, retirement from movie biz.

Karma in Indian religions is the concept of "action" or "deed", understood as that which causes the entire cycle of cause and effect (i.e., the cycle called saṃsāra). Originating in ancient India, Karma is part of Hindu, Jain, Buddhist and Sikh philosophies
It's fun copying from wikipedia

I know what karma is. What I don't understand is what he meant by that. What karma? Karma for "ruining" a TMNT movie? Really?!
Why are people trying to reason with Cube? Honestly? He's clearly an incredibly simple-minded nerd who has never ventured outside his front door. At least that's how he comes across. Look at his sig. Says it all.

3 funniest posts:

Lol, I don't think she was a good choice for April either
no, that's what we deserve...
another funny one... (we deserve for Michael Bay to quit making movies):D
I thought that was the Japanese?
Yes Dirty Blond, it was the Japanese that ruined Pearl harbor, and not Michael Bay.:D
As a side note, I don't think anyone here really wants anything terribly bad to happen to Michael Bay. A lot of us are just annoyed by him, and like to joke...

"Michael Bay's Voltron" seems like the movie he was put on Earth to make. Giant Robots AND Giant Explosions, BUT.... - wait for it - .... IN SPACE!!! :o
God truly does work in mysterious ways. Suddenly, Michael Bay's entire Earthly existence makes bafflingly perfect sense. He was sent here to make a Voltron movie and everything else he's ever done has been practice. I'm 100000% in favor of this, now.
