What the fuck took them so long, is the question.

I'm too old now to be under the illusion that Independence Day was any good at all.

It must be a day for shitty movie announcements... Another Godzilla reboot, movie(s) based on the talking baby from the E-Trade commercials, and Michael Bay remaking Rosemary's Baby.

I can't even bring myself to google that, I am too afraid it will be true.

I get so angry every time the dog leaps away from the explosion in slow motion. I know the film is intended to be a blatant crowd pleaser but jesus christ.

FUCK BAY to DEATH!!
Or something along those lines. I just can't see him doing something so purely dramatic. It doesn't even have 'real' scary moments. I always thought the sex scene needed an explosion though.

That article also mentions a Men in Black III as well, which is the first I've heard of it. and

So when is he going to find time to butcher the Asimov's Foundation (http://www.firstshowing.net/2010/02/11/emmerich-is-going-motion-capture-for-the-foundation-trilogy/) series he's optioned?

Hah, oh man, I forgot all about this scene. It's one of the most hilarious moments in cinema.

Strange thing is, I'd watch a Bay rendition of, say Macbeth. Or even Antony and Cleopatra. Maybe Julius Caesar. That crosses some kind of line.

Just a "Shakespeare" thriller, however - in the same way that Shakespeare in Love was a "Shakespeare" movie - would be quite a disappointment.

[EXTERIOR of HOSPITAL. Cut to INTERIOR - ROSEMARY'S ROOM. ROSEMARY is on the maternity bed, giving birth. A DOCTOR is looking in between her legs. We keep cutting back and forth to EXTREME CLOSEUPS of their FACES.]

DOCTOR: Gross! Okay. NURSE! [looks frantically] Where's the nurse?

NURSE: [kicks in the room's door. She's wearing a short skirt and a top with her titties all out over the place.] Got it.

DOCTOR: Give her 50ccs of Calmazone!

ROSEMARY: HHHHHHHG THE DEVIL PUT THIS IN ME!

NURSE: [rapidly loads a needle and puts it into ROSEMARY'S arm] It's gonna be alright.

ROSEMARY: YOU DON'T- [begins to relax quickly] You... you don't understand...

NURSE: She's out, Doctor.

DOCTOR: [pulls baby from off-camera] We've got it! [looks at baby's stomach. the belly button is an upside down pentagram]

[EXTERIOR shot of HOSPITAL, which EXPLODES.]

I bet Rosemary would have to be inexplicably taken to the hospital by an F-22.

I'm starting to care less and less about terrible movies now I have realised how easy it is to avoid them.

Bay is producing Rosemary's Baby under his Platinum Dunes label (the fellas responsible for most of the recent slasher remakes), not directing it. So it will be mediocre, not awesomely terrible.

Couldn't be any worse than Julie Taymor's Titus.
