I'm willing to forgive Bay for that statement for a few reasons.

1). He's right. People are going to go see it.

2). The guy has been hearing the same criticisms over and over again for the past seven years. There's a point where he is going to get tired of them.

3). He's made it quite clear he makes those movies for people who are/want to feel like 13-year-old boys.

4). I don't really care.

I enjoy the movies for what they are. There was a time where I gave them more credit than they deserved, but I'm older and slightly less stupid, now, and I've realized they have their flaws.

I don't watch those movies because I want to be challenged. I watch them because I want bto see giant robots turning into giant machines and fight other giant robots. If there is some deeper message or challenging ideas in there, that's great, but that's not why I'm watching.

That doesn't mean I don't always want to be challenged. It just means that I know what I'm getting myself into when I watch a Transformers film, and I know how to enjoy it. It won't stop me from watching better movies. It just means that, sometimes, I want to watch a Transformers movie.

And that's okay.
