I just came across this article from 2008 saying Micheal Bay wasnt apart of the ride being made and didnt give his blessing. http://snarkerati.com/movie-news/michael...mers-ride/
Does anyone know this to be true the same or different know?

Michael Bay wasn't involved because there wasn't any room for big enough explosions.

From ThemeParkInsider:

Quote:"We're doing this really spectacular Transformers attraction right now [under construction in Hollywood and in Singapore]. And there were a couple of [breakthrough problem-solving] moments there. We have a very limited piece of real estate and we wanted to tell a really big story, so we devised a way that we would be able to create a vertical experience.

"The adversity was that we didn't have enough real estate. The idea that we could go vertical created an opportunity to create a media silo, a 60-foot-high silo that we would really be able to explore the full scale of the characters. So we solved the technical problem of real estate by creating a double-decker, or two-story, attraction."

"The technical problem leads to creative challenge, because here we have a 28-foot robot and how are we going to get this guy to unfold in a single-story space? Well, we created a volume of space that enabled us to do that as well as solve the technical problem of the real estate."

"We had tight real estate in Hollywood and we had tight real estate in Singapore, so the solution was beneficial in both locations, and it's exactly the same building [in both theme parks]."

Woodbury said that Transformers is on schedule to open later this year in Singapore and in 2012 in Hollywood.

^ Awesome! I'm glad this put to rest the rumors of the giant robots being scrapped for budget concerns! Very exciting!
