If only Bumblebee was there to save him. Director Michael Bay, of Transformers and Armageddon fame, was attacked on the set of Transformer 4 in Hong Kong on Thursday. Two brothers with the last name Mak, 27 and 28 years old, assaulted the director after demanding payment of HK $100,000 ($12,900 USD). Bay was reportedly injured on his face, but did not seek treatment. The two assailants, along with one other man who was arrested at the scene, remain in police custody.
