Transformers 3 Secretly Re-Used Footage From Michael Bay's 6-Year-Old $162 Million Failure

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Despite the third installment in Michael Bay's Transformers series, 2011's , having a big budget, it weirdly recycled footage from an earlier entry in the director's filmography. The movies have become some of the filmmaker's best-known projects, and it's hard to imagine the Transformers franchise without Michael Bay's involvement.

Why exactly Michael Bay chose to recycle shots instead of filming new footage isn't entirely clear. It's possible that Bay thought no one would notice, given that The Island failed to make much of an impression and considering how short both shots are. At the time of Dark of the Moon's release, the rehashed footage annoyed some moviegoers, who were upset that Bay's first full 3D movie contained two converted shots.
