Alright, who do you think would be the best director for Star Trek 12: JJ Abrams or the one and only Michael Bay?

My vote goes to Bay because his movies make more money than JJ´s.
 
Bay, because JJ Abrams has never written, directed or produced a single thing that I've considered entertaining.
 
I enjoy Michael Bay movies, but I don't like his filming style that much. Too many quick cuts for no reason.
 
It's a question because I suspect the point behind it was to be a stealth troll. Just another jab at ST09 basically.
 
J.J. Abrams. Why is this even a question? Bay would be utter shit for Star Trek.

If JJ says no, who do you think Paramount will call? Bay, of course, since he´s the golden boy of the studio. Just imagine faster cuts, even sexier alien babes and lots of jokes that many will find offensive.
 
J.J. Abrams. Why is this even a question? Bay would be utter shit for Star Trek.

Are you referring to this from IMDb?:

I'm one of the few directors - it seems like a dying art - that actually shoot a lot in the camera.

Or this:

To tell the truth, shooting action bores me now. But the audience has grown to like what I do and expect visually stimulating excitement. Staying in that genre is me being safe.

Actually he says he has a desire for accuracy so perhaps he would realise Star Trek includes the idea of some social improvement over the next 250 years. Probably wishful thinking of course, but I say give him a shot, assuming he is still interested considering the above quotes.
 
are u kidding...yeah its has to ba a joke

sorry but JJ pawns Bay, yes Bay films makes more money but his movies are void

it’s all about quality not quantity

bay sucks...big time.

TRANSFORMER 2 made more money than star trek 09 and both of them were released by paramount however look t the reviews.


On rotten tomatoes star trek is a 94% fresh...transformers 2 is a 19% rotten


On IMDB star trek is an 8.1 out of 10....transformers 2 is a 5.9

09 trek is going to be considered a SCI-FI classic in the next 10 yrs ( in fact it already is)


Transformers 2 has been laughable since it release and would continue to be

JJ WINS.
 
JJ and Bay would laugh their asses off, given that both work together. Abrams wrote the script for Armageddon. Orci & Kurtzman both write scripts for Abrams and Bay movies.
