Wordsmith,
do you find it ethical to mess with the minds of those who are obviously intellectually inferior to yourself?
Mimi Lafou
Mimi,
You must be referring to Jocinda, Scott, and Judy. As they are attempting to commit unethical acts against me, yes. Yes I do.
Unimpeachably,
Magi Wordsmith
Dear wordsmith,
If you had the opportunity to steal the Batmobile, like Chris O'Donnell did, would you?
Where would you go? And would you return it after?
Kit Datson
Kit? KIT? You are so awesome! Knight Rider was always like, "Dude, I don't know what to do without my car," and you were like, "I talk with mouth lights, man!" The only way to make you any cooler would be...
Yes, Kit. Yes, I would steal the batmobile. I would steal it for you, Kit. Together, we would kick David Hasselhoff's ass, figuratively speaking. As for returning the batmobile, well, that would be up to you, but I don't think I could compete with Batman.
With all the automotive adoration I've ever felt in my life,

What would you do if the sky was falling?

Don't worry about it, Betty. The Chicken's got this one.
Respecting the chicken,

Dear wordsmith,
Why was transformers so good compared to the new Star Wars Film? And why
is George Lucas apologising to his fans for all the crap? I saw thoses movies
and the only part I agreed with was when Vader said "NOOOOOO!"
Truley.
Confused with Hollywood.
Hello, Confused.
Your question has many answers.
First of all, Micheal Bay knew while he was making it that he was on hallowed ground, and if he screwed it up, he was going to face me. He spent his nights half-awake, and no one on the set understood why they could hear, "Wordsmith, Wordsmith!" from his trailer.
See, Bay had a bar that he had to hit. The Transformers hasn't really moved in fifteen years. Beasties/Beast Wars/Beast Machines and the stupid anime series weren't even really blips on the radar. This movie was going to attract everyone old enough to have rented the original cartoon movie, everyone who remembers Galvatron's first kill. These are people who have grown up, and had lives. Micheal Bay was the new element, so he had to measure up.
George Lucas, on the other hand, is filthy stinking rich because Star Wars IV-VI are in probably at least sixty percent of the homes in Canada and the United States. There was a good ten percent of the people who owned those movies who could quote just about every line in the original trilogy. One percent of them do, every time they watched the movies. At least half the people who owned them, if not more like ninety percent, knew that there were supposed to be three more movies. A few knew there were originally supposed to be six more movies, but there are actually people who still believe that the world is flat. It is of those people that I now speak.
Lucas knew these people existed. Lucas knew that most people who had the old trilogy would come see the new trilogy. So basically, he knew that all he'd really have to do would be to connect the dots from wherever he wanted to start from, and all the people screaming for him to make more movies would finally shut the hell up. And shut them up, he did. Now, there are extremely few people who would actually want George Lucas to write any more movies.
So that's the answer, Confused. Bay didn't want to get lynched, and Lucas wanted to be left alone.
As for why he's apologising now, it didn't really work. Rather than leave him alone, people now pester him with questions like yours. Apologising is really all he can do now. The alternative is Episode 1-2.0, and really, can we handle that much more disappointment?
Still reeling,
Magi Wordsmith
