Yeah, the Hammer tech was BAD. I laughed so hard when it fizzled. He made such a show out of it, too.
*SNORT* Michael Bay just likes to blow up things and make a mess out of sets. I mean, he does it well (the sounds of thing going kaboom make me smile... I have issues), but it's not really action as it is just, BOOM!
Now J.J. Abrams is my hero. All he did to make me fall for him is the Star Trek scene where a part of the ship goes kaboom and people start being sucked into space. The moment where you can here the screaming and then, nothing, nada, silence, reminded me of my Physics class when the teacher said there's no sound in space *.* So cool.
But Jon Favreau has a great way of telling the story as he shows it and yes, he's so very good with action sequences, he really is (who would've thought the guy I saw in the movie, 'Love and Sex', would've been THE guy to direct Iron Man? SO. AWESOME.)
