This new trailer for Need for Speed: The Run was directed by none other than Mr Bad Boys himself, Michael Bay. It’s got cars, and racing and quick-quick-quick cuts!
It does not, unfortunately, do that thing where a guy stands there while the camera spins around him. What the hell, Bay? EA paid you a tonne of money, and you can’t even bring your A-game?
But OK, yeah. This is a pretty damned exciting trailer, as video game trailers go. Who knew? The only thing standing between Michael Bay and “something watchable” was the complete removal of any actual human beings.

It DID have “Michael Bay” in the title, irrespective of any other details.
