Outstanding Analysis!

great post. I am a cinematographer for games and this was the perfect analysis for his style. I actually think he does a lot of cool cameras and cuts. The problem that people have with Bay is more in terms of story and pacing. Those cools shots are less meaningful when they are in every scene.
