Michael Bay

Michael Bay (played by Doug Walker) is a recurring character on Nostalgia Critic. He is a parody of the real-life movie director of the same name, who has a reputation of making big action movies that are always big hits at the box office, yet they have found little critical praise from critics.

Personality
NC's version of Bay's personality is...

Pearl Harbor
Making his debut here, we see a parody of how Bay began his work in Hollywood.

Mad Max: Fury Road
Bay appears on the TV screen of NC and Curiosa's car, calling himself the "Master of Action" and describing his way of making action movies, completely unlike the way Mad Max: Fury Road was made.

Alvin and the Chipmunks
Bay appears upon watching several clips of the film and seeing the reactions of the Aww Girls (who are huge fans of the movie). Bay, realizing there's a formula for the kids movie, decides to have his next projects be targeted for kids, calling Transformers his most adult work after NC claims he already made a movie for kids.

Freddy vs. Jason
Bay appears alongside Zack Snyder (played by Walter Baniask), defending their schtick of making their movies PG-13 instead of making them R-rated. Suddenly, NC, who has spent all the review trying to find another new major horror crossover, finds one with Snyder and Bay, who both have made movies that contain lots of explosions and scenes of wanton destruction, lack of effort in the script writing, and not having a good story or characters, yet the end results end up becoming a huge hit.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows
Bay appears...

Trivia
NC has reviewed one movie that Bay directed, Pearl Harbor, and has also done short reviews of Bay's Transformers series, and has reviewed three movies that Bay produced, The Purge, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and its sequel.
