How can anybody, having seen his recent "movies", ever think Michael Bay could do a RIFTS movie justice? I mean come on, the man is all about SFX and sweaty cleavage. No real acting involved. His idea of a great movie would be two hours of exploding sweaty cleavages and running, screaming people with close-ups or slo-mo gymkata flips done by the lame "star".
The RIFTS movie would require someone with
actual talent who would want to see the film reflect the
actual content of the books, instead of what the director
thinks the books should have. That rules Bay out right there. He'd have a love interest for the main character with exposed cleavage within the first ten minutes.
