Michael Bay, director of both Transformers movies made history by becoming the second biggest opening in box office history.  It fell short by only 2 million to The Dark Knight.

This movie is full of acting, the robot-fighting kind.  Human actors were abound as well.  Actor Shia LaBeouf’s character had moved smoothly into the second movie.

Michael Bay has been reported as saying that he wouldn’t mind directing a third Transformers, but its fans may need to wait a while for its release.

Megan Fox was one of the talent in this film.  Megan is an American actress and model who began acting in 2001.

Her first role was that of a supporting one, as Brianna Wallace in Holiday in the Sun.  After that, she guest-starred in various television series, including What I Like About You, Two and a Half Men, The Help, and Ocean Ave. She also played a recurring role as Sydney Shanowski on Hope and Faith.

Megan's film career began in Confessions Of A Teenage Drama Queen (2004) and other films include Crimes Of Fashion (2004, TV), How to Lose Friends & Alienate People (2008) and Whore (2008).

Fox's breakout role was as Mikaela Banes, Shia LaBeouf's character's love interest in the 2007 blockbuster film Transformers, a role for which Fox was nominated and won various Teen Choice Awards.

She appeared in the sequel, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Her upcoming films include Jennifer's Body, Jonah Hex, and The Crossing.

Fox has often been compared to actress, Angelina Jolie by the media dubbing her as an "Angelina clone."

Fox said of the comparisons that:

I think it’s a lack of creativity on the media’s part. Because I have tattoos and dark hair and I was in an action movie? That’s as far as the similarities extend. I’m not the next anyone."
