With Transformers 2 less than a week from it’s release, Michael Bay has announced he will not take part in the third film, due out in the summer of 2011.

“After the three and a half years I’ve spent making these movies, I feel like I’ve had enough of the Transformers world. I need to do something totally divergent, something without any explosions.”

Possibly a heart tugging drama? A slapstick comedy? Really?

Though I will be antsy in a theater next Wednesday to see what he cooked up for us, I’ll be more charged in two years with Micheal Bay eliminated from the creative process.
