Michael Bay's "Transformers" was back in theaters for a night last week, so I took some time to talk all about it. Do the visual effects still hold up? Why do I have a soft spot for Shia LaBeouf as an actor? What random connection does this movie have to the 2009 "Friday the 13th" movie? Tune in now to hear it all...

In this episode of the Web3 Marketing Association Podcast, hosts Dave Wallace and Suresh Balaji are joined by Hrish Lotlikar, co-founder and CEO of Superworld, to explore the bold vision of building a virtual layer over the entire planet.Hrish shares his extraordinary journey—from investment banking and venture capital in emerging markets to launching startups in AR, VR, gaming, and entertainment alongside Hollywood names like Michael Bay. These experiences inspired the creation of Superworld, a platform that allows users to own, create, and monetise virtual real estate mapped directly onto the physical world.The conversation explores how Superworld combines gaming mechanics with real-world relevance: users can “put down roots” in virtual plots of land linked to real geography, while brands can build immersive experiences, experiment with new products, or extend customer engagement into hybrid physical-digital spaces. Unlike purely virtual worlds, Superworld's foundation on Earth ensures durability and relevance—your virtual assets retain value because they're tied to real locations.Hrish also emphasises Superworld's mission to be a life-enhancing platform, not a life-escape platform. Inspired by the lessons of The Social Dilemma, the vision is to use AR, VR, and Web3 technologies to enrich people's real lives rather than distract from them—what Hrish calls “live to earn”. Accessibility is key: Superworld is designed to be hardware-agnostic and interoperable across web, mobile, wearables, and future devices.This inspiring discussion highlights how Web3 can reshape ownership, identity, and community—not by drawing people away from reality, but by enhancing how we live, connect, and create in the world around us.

Battle for the Conn: Tony Scott's Crimson Tide You can never get enough Denzel Washington. This week Mr. Chavez & I sit down to talk the first of five collaborations with director Tony Scott, 1995s Crimson Tide. This first collaboration of Washington and Scott would fall almost directly in the middle of Scott's career and would be the fourth collaboration between Scott and the Don Simpson/Jerry Bruckheimer producing behemoth. This episode of WatchThis W/RickRamos takes a look at the relationship between Scott and his producing partners; the creation of the look and style that would come to define a great deal of 80s and 90s action films, as well as the relationship betwen Scott's style and what would later be adopted and expanded on by Michael Bay. We also take a look at the tremendous star power in pitting Denzel Washington and Gene Hackman against one another in a film that makes palpable argument for both of their characters. Two of the greatest actors of the last quarter of the 20th Century elevating everything about a film that Mr. Chavez & I are divided on. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

Pain & Gain is Michael Bay's magnum opus, a razor-sharp dissection of the American id. This movie has it all: Con artistry, prosperity gospel, and drugs, drugs, drugs! It also features career-best performances of Dwayne Johnson, Mark Wahlberg, and Anthony Mackie, and it's easily Bay's best movie. Indeed, it's a look at an alternate career for Johnson where he could play interesting, complicated, vulnerable characters like he does in this movie. Instead, he made a bunch of movies with big cars and/or gorillas.   Still, Pain & Gain is an absolute blast and we had a great time breaking it down, marveling at how much fun it is and how well it predicted what America would feel like in 2025.   Next week: Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle (2017)   The Summer of Rock is our summer 2025 miniseries covering the movie career of Dwayne Johnson through nine movies, presented in chronological order. Starting with his attempt at crossing over from the world of wrestling, The Rock's career got off to a bumpy start before finally taking off in the 2010s. But it wasn't long before the bumps returned, and we'll be telling the story for you all summer long!   Bonus video: Families in movies are always eating breakfast together, but nobody in real life actually does that, right? https://youtu.be/DwJNZkJ_SzA   Subscribe to our Patreon, Load Bearing Beams: Collector's Edition for $5 a month to get two extra episodes! patreon.com/loadbearingbeams      Time stamps: 00:12:07 — Our personal histories with Pain & Gain and Michael Bay 00:27:08 — History segment: The Rock returns to WWE from 2011-2013 for two matches against John Cena; Michael Bay's relationship with the American military; the real-life Sun Gym Gang 00:42:43 — In-depth movie discussion 01:51:42 — Final thoughts and star ratings     Sources: “Pain & Gain” by Pete Collins | The Miami New Times (1999) - https://bit.ly/4f1U30B   “Pain & Gain: Where the Real-Life Sun Gym Gang Characters Are Now” by  Francisco Alvarado | The Miami New Times (2013) - https://bit.ly/4kQFmyQ  “‘Pain & Gain' killers spared from death by Miami juries.

Much like The Bodyguard, ARMAGEDDON's primary legacy is its MTV-Movie-Award-Winning song, a little Aerosmith ditty called I Don't Want To Miss a Thing. What does that say about the movie, and would it be different if Bay's film didn't live under the shadow of Independence Day? Could the Criterion Collection be wrong, or are they ahead of the curve on this one?

Zo and the rest of the world are negotiating with catastrophe as everyone has to come to accept the unreal reality of the sky falling down. In this case the sky is falling down in the shape and form of a devastating meteor shower. These aren't the normal types of meteors that normally burn up in the Earth's atmosphere; these bad boys are gigantic - the size of Volkswagens and mailboxes. They come from outer space and punch through the globes protective layer like so much tin foil, burning on their way to untold destruction. On impact they punch holes in buildings and send tractor trailers hurling through the air, but this is just a harbinger. The real threat is Dottie, an asteroid of unspeakable size. It's an extinction level event just waiting to happen. The only thing that stands in it's way are a rowdy gang of professional oil drillers with a crazy plan to dig a hole in the ornery space rock and plant a nuclear bomb inside. It's a plan so crazy that it just might work and if it doesn't then it's the extinction of most of the life on the planet. It's means the event that's been foretold in the Bible had come to pass . . . Armageddon. Episode Segments00:05:44 Opening Credits for Armageddon starring: Bruce Willis, Billy Bob Thorton, Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler00:23:53 Favorite Parts of the 1998 film: Armageddon00:46:55 Trivia from the sci-fi action movie: Armageddon00:58:03 Critics' Thoughts on Michael Bay's Armageddon #Armageddon #BruceWillis #BillyBobThorton #BenAffleck #LivTyler #MichaelBay #Aerosmith #IDontWantToMissAThing Please leave a comment, suggestion or question on our social media: Back Look Cinema: The Podcast Links:Website: www.backlookcinema.comEmail: fanmail@backlookcinema.comYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@backlookcinemaTwitter: https://twitter.com/backlookcinemaFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/BackLookCinemaInstagram: https://instagram.com/backlookcinemaThreads: https://www.threads.net/@backlookcinemaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@backlookcinemaTwitch https://www.twitch.tv/backlookcinemaBlue Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/backlookcinema.bsky.socialMastodon: https://mstdn.party/@backlookcinemaBack Look Cinema Merch at Teespring.comBack Look Cinema Merch at Teepublic.com Again, thanks for listening.

In this transformative episode of Sorry, We Tried, it's FREE TALK FRIDAY! This week, we've got a lot to unpack. They're making a new Transformers movie with Michael Bay, and that's bad... probably? And lots of other things. I won't spoil them all here, but just trust me— we talk about other things.Also in this episode, Harrison messes up the vibe. Robby warns about the dangers of testicular torsion. Spencer falls victim to the BAYHEM. And the guys can't believe that Bruce Willis was in G.I.

Final Destination 2 is a symphony of stupidity—and I mean that as a compliment. It's the kind of gloriously dumb horror sequel that knows exactly what it is, knows exactly what you came for, and wastes not a single moment trying to be anything more. This is 90 minutes of elaborate, Rube Goldberg murder machines soaked in blood and irony, gleefully cooked up for maximum squirm, scream, and laugh-out-loud shock value. It's dumb, it's low-brow, and it's absolutely perfect at being both. The movie wastes no time setting the tone: a now-iconic highway pile-up that feels like someone gave Michael Bay a box of Hot Wheels and told him to film a snuff film. From there, the film doesn't bother with character development beyond “this one's kind of a jerk” and “that one's probably doomed” because it has better things to do—namely, assembling ludicrous, overly complex death scenes like it's competing in a sadistic engineering contest. The real star isn't any of the humans, it's the absurd chain reactions involving ladders, air bags, barbed wire, and a spaghetti of fate that could only exist in this series. What sets Final Destination 2 apart from other gore-porn offerings is its laser focus. It has a mission—deliver karmic, over-the-top death scenes wrapped in a thick coating of schlock—and it executes (pun intended). There's no meandering subplot, no slow-burn psychological twists. It's pure horror junk food: bloody, crunchy, and instantly satisfying. The movie also dials up the black comedy with every scene, letting the audience lean into the absurdity. It knows you're laughing at it, and it wants you to laugh harder. And let's talk karma—because this sequel adds an extra little spice to the kills. Everyone who gets got sort of had it coming, and the movie leans into this with a smug wink, giving the audience permission to cackle through the carnage. There's something almost therapeutic about watching these characters try to outmaneuver Death while it patiently flexes its Final Destination “gotcha” muscles. It's a greasy, gory good time, and unlike many horror sequels, it actually delivers what it promises—nothing more, but certainly nothing less.

The MONTH OF ACTION continues, as we dive into the worlds introduction to eccentric director Michael Bay, alongside two powerhouses of TV, Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, with 1995's BAD BOYS. With little to no control, a terrible script, and fresh faces to the world of cinema, how did this movie ever get off the ground, or become one of the most talked about buddy cop movies of all-time? Who knows, but lets talk about it, this week on the Dissect That Film Podcast: Episode 212.   Intro/Outro Music by DARKRAIZARD Intro video created by Mickey Joe Smith Help support the show and join us on PATREON: https://patreon.com/dissectthatfilm   GO TO OUR LINKTREE FOR ALL OF OUR LINKS https://linktr.ee/dissectthatfilm Check out Dan's MTG podcast Manawurm on Spotify.   Time Stamps: Intro/Trivia - 0:00:00-0:15:23 Movie Breakdown - 0:15:23-1:16:02 Final Thoughts - 1:16:02-1:19:31 Social Media Comments - 1:19:31-1:22:13 End of Show: 1:22:13-1:27:51

In this episode of the Action Movie Guys Podcast, Alex and Nate kick off their long-overdue revisit of the Bad Boys franchise, starting with the 1995 original that launched the iconic duo. Joining them is special guest Scott JoJokersMovies from Instagram, who brings his own take on the explosive action, hilarious banter, and classic Michael Bay style. Does the first Bad Boys still hold up after all these years? Tune in to find out!

Degens Andy S and Brandon Bombay got the whole wide world, in their hands, as they discuss 'Con Air.' Bombay opens the proceedings by telling the time he had his own flight from hell from Asia which involved being awake for 36 hours after a bender, with his arm in a sling. Then the fellas talk about one of the goofiest studio movies of the '90s, a film where Jerry Bruckheimer tapped a gun for hire to do his best Michael Bay impression, and the KY budget was record breaking as everyone glistened on screen. Nic Cage's flowing locks, and hackey inconsistent sometimes southern, sometimes Cajun accent, gets top billing, but it's an insanely stacked cast. John Malkovich chews scenery to degrees that'll make your jaw hurt, Danny Trejo is an ultra predatory latin Pepe le Pew, and Steve Buscemi is a poetic psychopath who wears heads for hats. Meanwhile, approximately 58% of the plot revolves around Cage's Poe securing insulin for his friend. None of it makes sense, but it ends with not one, but two wild crash scenes that tear up the majority of the Las Vegas strip. Whether you love the movie or find it overly cartoonish you'll want to tune in for this episode ... "or the bunny gets it." 

Play NowEpisode 379 of the Twincast / Podcast begins with an interview from Jon Bailey on his voice role in the Transformers collaborative event happening now in Player Unknown's PUBG MOBILE version 3.9. After a final teaser from the voice actor, the conversation shifts to Legos due to the recent reveal of Lego Soundwave. Rumors of Michael Bay and Josh Cooley returning to direct projects in the Transformers movie franchise take over the discussion next. After that, teasers of then-upcoming, now released Cyberworld series on Youtube wrap up the media talk. As usual, the "Bragging Rights" segment brings the show to a close.

In this episode of AKAPD's The Film Buff Podcast, we dive into Drop (2025), a gripping single-room thriller that masterfully weaves on-screen graphics to propel the plot toward a thrilling and satisfying resolution.

Explosions, wisecracks, and that unforgettable slow-mo shirtless sprint—this week, the No More Late Fees crew is going full Michael Bay with Bad Boys! Jackie and Danielle are joined by Jamie from Millennial Misery to relive the buddy cop chaos that launched a franchise (and gave us sweaty Will Smith in an open silk shirt). From high-octane car chases to questionable wig choices, they unpack every explosive twist, behind-the-scenes feud, and fishy bathroom brawl—literally, there are fish flying during one of the fight scenes. It's Bayhem at its finest and most orange-tinted.Along the way, the trio dishes out fun facts, recasts that almost happened (Dana Carvey as Mike Lowry?!), and the messy origins of Bad Boys that somehow still gave us action movie gold. They even manage to connect it all to Dexter and Denny's. It's nostalgic chaos you don't want to miss. So grab a Coke and a smile and press play—because this episode is ride-or-die hilarious.·Season 5 Episode 13·—No More Late Fees ⁠https://nomorelatefeespodcast.com⁠909-601-NMLF (6653)—Follow Us on Social:Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/nomorelatefees TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@nomorelatefees Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/nomorelatefeesYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@nomorelatefees Twitterhttps://x.com/NoMoreLateFees —CONQUERing⁠⁠myconquering.com⁠⁠10% Off Code: JACKIE10—NostaBeautyhttps://nostabeauty.com 20% Off Code: NMLF—JamieInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/millennial_miseryhttps://www.instagram.com/hrbestiespodhttps://www.instagram.com/humorous_resourceshttps://www.instagram.com/the_chiefmemeofficerPrevious EpisodesAnchormanhttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/anchormanStay Classy Millennials: Ranking the Y2K Will Ferrell-versehttps://nomorelatefeespodcast.com/episode/stay-classy-millennials-ranking-the-y2k-will-ferrell-verse

In this episode, Foss starts things off with a blown tire on the way to the studio, and somehow the chaos continues. The boys dive into the weirdness of working on the 4th of July while overseas support teams took the day off, reflect on family fireworks traditions, and talk about the dangers of celebrating in the wrong neighborhood. They react to the news of the final Fast & Furious film bringing back Paul Walker (CGI edition), and Scarlett Johansson officially becoming the highest-grossing actor ever.Then things get wild with Joey Chestnut's absurd eating records (RIP 12 pounds of asparagus), a Utah Domino's explosion that looked like a Michael Bay movie, and Rush Hour getting a Gen Z warning. But the mood turns heavy as they break down the heartbreaking Texas summer camp floods that left dozens dead—including heroic stories that deserve to be remembered. They end on updates about the Idaho killer and what's next in the case.00:00 – Tire Blowout & Starting Off Rough00:50 – What If the Blowout Saved Your Life?02:00 – 4th of July, Outsourced Support, and Abu Dhabi Jokes04:30 – Fireworks Traditions, Scared Kids & West Jordan Drama06:00 – Grandma Wants Fireworks at 7PM08:00 – Rodeos, Monster Trucks & $90 Tickets10:10 – Fast & Furious Finale News (Back to LA)12:00 – How Will They Bring Paul Walker Back?14:25 – Scarlett Johansson is Now the Highest-Grossing Actor17:00 – Top Grossing Actors Ranked20:45 – Tom Cruise vs. Robert Downey Jr23:45 – Joey Chestnut is the GOAT of GOATS?26:00 – His Insane World Records (Tacos, Wontons, Tamales)31:00 – Could a Latino Beat the Tamale Record?34:00 – Domino's Explosion in Utah36:00 – What's the Best Chain Pizza?37:00 – Gen Z Rush Hour Warning Rant39:00 – Comedy Should Be Offensive Sometimes41:00 – Tropic Thunder & Tom Cruise's Funniest Role42:45 – Tragic Texas Summer Camp Flood (Dozens Dead)47:00 – Father Saves Family on Floating Mattress51:00 – Real Heroes: Julian Ryan & Camp Staff54:00 – Mexican Firefighters Helping in Texas56:00 – Idaho Killer Update: Guilty Plea59:00 – To Be Continued… Outro

In this episode, Burning Bright and Chris Paul dissect Michael Bay's 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi, blending film critique with a deeper exploration of the narratives surrounding the 2012 attack. They examine how the movie subtly undermines the official story, portraying the CIA not as saviors but as the true antagonists, hoarding information, obstructing help, and prioritizing their own cover-up over American lives. The discussion explores whether Ambassador Chris Stevens' death was a tragic accident or a deliberate assassination to bury evidence of weapons transfers and clandestine deals. They break down inconsistencies in the narrative, like the tidy explanation for Stevens' cause of death, the dubious claims of resource shortages, and the suspiciously well-prepared mortars that struck the annex. Through thoughtful analysis, they argue that incompetence is often a convenient cover for malice, and they challenge listeners to follow the trail of contradictions to see where it leads. With references to Hillary Clinton's infamous “What difference at this point does it make?” remark and the CIA's “heroism” awards, this episode pushes past surface-level hero worship to question whether the real story was hidden in plain sight.
