It seems as if he's garnered as much ire from Joe fans as Michael Bay has from Transformers fans. There's even some who would prefer Bay work on the sequel instead of Sommers, which I find hilarious considering Bay's a punchline over at TFW.

Oh well. Here's hoping the new director for Joe 2 has better luck than Sommers.

I think overall, Bay is a better director than Sommers, and I do perfer the TF movies to ROC. They lack depth for sure, but they did deliver on action, and special effects. Not that the films are without flaws, I just found myself more entertained by Bay's work than ROC. It's like Kickback said too, irregardless of what you think of the movies, Bay's movies obviously did something right looking at how much money they took in, and looking at how big it made the TF brand.

ROC did not do the same for GI Joe.
