If you’re a fan of Michael Bay and want to hear him share some awesome stories about the making of Ambulance and some of his other movies, you’re about to be very happy. That’s because Collider hosted an early screening of Ambulance and after the screening ended, he joined me for an epic 90-minute Q&A! If you’re not aware, Bay rarely does Q&As, which is one of the reasons we made sure to film the event.

Since we covered so many subjects, I decided to break it up into two parts.

In the first part, which you can read or watch here, Bay shared some awesome stories about working with Sean Connery on The Rock, discovering Michael Clarke Duncan for Armageddon, how his Pearl Harbor movie included the most complicated explosion ever done on film, what it was like making Bad Boys and 13 Hours, working with Bruce Willis, and more.

In today’s installment, Bay goes deep on the making of Ambulance and shares tons of behind-the-scenes stories with brutal honesty. One of the things I love about talking to Bay is he just tells it like it is about his experience working with an actor, or how a certain shot or stunt came together. In addition, Bay spoke about how he got involved in the first Transformers movie, why he originally thought it was a bad idea, and what the first test screenings were like.

Finally, towards the end of the Q&A, Bay answered a ton of audience questions which led him to talk about why he thinks Jerry Bruckheimer is an amazing producer, whether he’d be interested in directing a horror movie, working with Nicolas Cage on The Rock, how he gets the government to let him use their equipment, his future projects, and too much more for me to list here.

The only thing I’m 100% sure of is if you are a fan of Michael Bay you’re going to enjoy this conversation.
