My favorite director is Michael Bay:

He has directed transformers, pearl and Armageddon and many other films, although many people dislike his type of directing because he focuses on very action type with very large explosions and repeated shots but I believe that there is only so much a film can do. His main type of film is action and slightly leaning towards sci-fi. He has won a razzie award and had three other nominations for the razzies.

The film series which made him my favorite director was the transformers films he made something that I watched as a child as a crummy cartoon he transformed it into a blockbuster which although the second film did suffer from sequel syndrome he still kept it interesting enough for people my age.
