Megan Fox offers words of wisdom on Transformers 2: I don’t want to blow smoke up people’s a**.

Bay: I like to think that I’ve had some luck in building actors’ careers with my films.

SHOOT: 'Luck' is the word. Bay's movie excesses and sordid plotlines are an extravagance that doesn't fit with what's going on in the rest of the world, and he's a bad (dumbing down) influence on young movie goers.

Fox took a swipe at the sequel in a new interview, describing it as "not a movie about acting".

She told Entertainment Weekly, "I mean, I can’t s**t 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."

He says, "Well, that’s Megan Fox for you. She says some very ridiculous things because she’s 23 years old and she still has a lot of growing to do."

Bay also boasts his movies have long been stepping stones for actors on their way up: "Nic 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.

"Nobody in the world knew about Megan Fox until I found her and put her in Transformers. I like to think that I’ve had some luck in building actors’ careers with my films." - Wenn
