To be fair, much of what was wrong with the last two movies was largely remedied in this fourth entry, miraculously giving audiences a decently entertaining actioner. But in either case, by continuing to crank out more movies about the annihilation of humanity, he is ultimately negating the good action films he made in the past, ensuring he'll forever be remembered as that guy who made the Transformers movies. This could be evidence of his lack of imagination or proof of his generic, mainstream-pleasing talents behind the camera. There are already plans from two more entries after The Last Knight and a standalone spinoff featuring the lovable and most colorful giant sentient robot, Bumblebee. Another way of seeing it is Bay's career as director hitting a plateau from which he may never climb down from, pigeonholing himself into a form of typecasting. This fourth installment to the overall series essentially kicks off a second new trilogy that works as a separate storyline from its predecessor, yet it remains loosely connected or existing within the same universe with plots resulting from previous events. After years of reportedly being done with the Transformers franchise, Michael Bay returns to the series with Age of Extinction.
