Less Than Meets the Eye
Not sure what's more offensive about this - Megan's ridiculous stereotyping, or her belief that Megatron can be reasoned with. Has she learned nothing?
The “Transformers” bombshell-cum-uninhibited philosophizer also contemplates — reluctantly — what she would say to Megatron to keep him from destroying the world. “I’d barter with him,” she muses to the July issue Total Film UK, “and say instead of the entire planet, can you just take out all of the white trash, hillbilly, anti-gay, super bible-beating people in Middle America?”I thought the first Transformers movie was okay, but it wasn't good enough to get me to the theater for the sequel. I have no doubt that "Revenge of the Fallen" will be critic-proof, but I wonder how much money Fox's comments just subtracted from the movie's box office?
In response, Michael Bay made a film that consisted of him crying over his bank statement.
In slow motion.

Nice, Megan Fox is very good looking, but not enough to forgive her for this total stupidity.
The rest of us 'white trash' 'hillbilly' 'bible thumping' MAJORITY are smart enough to stop seeing your movies once you disdain your audience.
Your pretty looks are the only thing keeping you in movies, since you can't act worth a damn.
I give her one or two years after Transformers, when she'll be begging for roles.

I wonder if she realizes looks will only take you so far. Eventually you have to rely on that muck between your ears. Anyway I wasn't really offended by this because I'm willing to bet she's dumber than a bag of hammers.

She's young. She's probably going through the angry phase many young people go through. Ten years from now, she probably wouldn't say something like that.

Ten years from now she probably won't have a career, angry phase or no, it's still insulting.
and I seriously doubt she'll be able to sustain her career beyond her looks.

Obviously this young girl doesn't realize what side her bread is buttered. Does she know how much the "white trash, hillbilly, supper bible thumping people in the US spend on movies every year? Poor child she has just dug her own hole. Now she will have to live in it. Hopefully it won't be in Middle America.

Megatron would probably do something outrageous, like attack NYC. Hello! That's a blue state! They didn't even vote for Bush!
He needs to take out a red state, they're full of a bunch of crazy right wingers who want their fellow citizens to die!
