Hugo bashing Transformers + Bays answer.fun reading!
Hugo:
""Thats a weird job for me because it honestly was a two-hour voice job, initially. I was doing a play and I actually didnt have time, anyway. It was one of the only things Ive ever done where I had no knowledge of it, I didnt care about it, I didnt think about it. They wanted me to do it. In one way, I regret that bit. I dont regret doing it, but I very rarely do something if its meaningless. It was meaningless to me, honestly. I dont mean that in any nasty way. I did it. It was a two-hour voice job, while I was doing other things. Of course, its a massive film thats made masses of money. I just happened to be the voice of one of the iconic villainous characters. But, my link to that and to Michael Bay is so minimal. I have never met him. I was never on set. Ive seen his face on Skype. I know nothing about him, really. I just went in and did it. I never read the script. I just have my lines, and I dont know what they mean. That sounds absolutely pathetic! Ive never done anything like that, in my life. Its hard to say any more about it than that, really. ""
Michael Bays answer:
""Do you ever get sick of actors that make $15 million a picture, or even $200,000 for voiceover work that took a brisk one hour and 43 minutes to complete, and then complain about their jobs? With all the problems facing our world today, do these grumbling thespians really think people reading the news actually care about trivial complaints that their job wasnt artistic enough or fulfilling enough? I guess The Hollywood Reporter thinks so.
What happened to people who had integrity, who did a job, got paid for their hard work, and just smiled afterward? Be happy you even have a job let alone a job that pays you more than 98% of the people in America.
I have a wonderful idea for all those whiners: They can give their unhappy job money to a wonderful Elephant Rescue. Its the David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust in Africa. I will match the funds they donate.
