Hello, stranger...

This is a private (from time to time) blog for my cinematic obsessions and scintillating (one-sided) reflections about movies. Feel yourself at home!

Every Michael Bay Movie In Under A Minute


„Funny. But allow me to play devil's advocate to this piece of devil's advocacy for a minute. The auteur theory teaches us to examine a director's larger filmography for consistent themes and motifs. And what does this video show if not a consistency of ideas (well maybe "ideas" is the wrong word, more like "things") across all of Michael Bay's movies: a fetishization of technology, a sort of unstoppable kineticism, and lots of girls in short shorts. Like it or not, Michael Bay is a director with a clear authorial signature. He shows you the dark of the moon and the dark side of auteur theory.” (Matt Singer, www.ifc.com)
