Spielberg thinks Transformer 2 is Michael Bay's best film

Michael Bay is happy and proud to share in his message board that Steven Spielberg thinks that "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" is definitely better than the first installment and probably his best film.
Bay's board: Steven Spielberg sat next to me in a big 100 person theater at Sony today. There were 98 empty seats. The lights came up after we just watched my cut of Revenge of the Fallen. He turned to me and said "It's awesome". He felt this movie was better than the first - and probably my best, who knows - at this point in a movie you start to lose your objectivity. I just hope the fans like it. I'm going to start putting it in front of audiences in a few weeks - no you are not invited, yet.

We have 60 days left. Let me tell you it will be a race to finish. It's 12 at night and we are still working here in the edit room. Everyone at ILM and DD are killing themselves right now, they are doing a stellar job on the effects. We also just finished our trailer which is coming out with Wolverine. Talk to you soon.
The second Transformer installment will be four minutes longer that the first one.

China is banning artist that "threaten national sovereignty."

The Chinese government is on red alert on foreign artists and performers that will engaged in activities deemed to "threaten national sovereignty."

China's Ministry of Culture’s website issued a statement that they will ban any performance that might threaten national unity, stir ethnic hatred or violate Beijing's strict policy on state-approved religions and "cultural norms."

Heavy government critics like Sharon Stone and Steven Spielberg are surely included in the said ban.

Another artist is Bjork and her performance incident last March in which she yelled, "Tibet, Tibet, Tibet" after performing her song "Declare Independence".

The said ban will be one of their security measure against threats from unruly crowds and potential protesters.
