After Willis wrote on his blog that he would never again work with Bay, the director decided to reply.
The two fell out while working on the film Armageddon, and Willis wrote, "Few people will work with Bay now, and I know I will never work with him again. A screaming director does not make for a pleasant set experience."
Bay, who directed the film Transformers, feels that Willis is only looking for publicity for his new film, Die Hard 4. Bay said, "If you look, he posted at 3:30 in the morning.; Does anything good happen at 3:30 in the morning? I think we have movies that were supposed to open on the same date and I think he thought, ‘Maybe I’ll get some fans if I do that.’ Bruce wrote, ‘If Michael Bay would have done Die Hard 4.0, it would have sucked.’ "Now, my action is usually pretty good. So I’ll put it to the test. Put Transformers action against Die Hard 4.0 action. If you want to go the competitive way, we can go there."
