MTV has posted an interview with "Transformers" star Rachel Taylor in which she expresses her relief over not being called back for the sequel. Citing the role as “great experience,” Taylor went on to say it was “not quite what I want to do.” Focused on building her skills as an actor, she comments, "‘Transformers’ was important and defining for me because it taught me about what kinds of movies I want to make." We'll see if she made the right choice. Read the full article at MTV.com.

She's a stupid tree-hugger anyway. They don't belong in action films unless they get killed violently on screen.

Sorry, I wasn't directing my post at you, but the original suggestion of "made the right choice."

Hate to break it to you, but I think tree-huggers are most of who you see on screen in
any film.

Easy...The kind that don't make over a billion dollars world wide through box office and dvd sales in just over a year.
I don't know why on earth anyone would want anything to do with that!
Hey, I don't care how uncomfortable one is with the role, when it's THAT successful you'd be a fool to not want to come back for the sequel. My money is on that she is just saying that to save face.

Reminds me of Toby McGuire moaning about not wanting to be Spider-Man before the second one was filmed.
And again before the third one was filmed.
He wants to get back to much bigger and more memorable roles, like when he played as Seabiscuit.
Or Hallie Berry complaining about being Storm in X-men. She's much better as a serious actress in more adult roles. Like Catwoman.
I never saw Catwoman. It was a porno, right?

She would have been paid the same if the movie had tanked. I think the obvious meaning behind her comments is that she doesn't want to do any more obnoxious action movies.

I'd like to see these people die from trees, in movies of course, not by a poisonous gas that trees release.....

After "Armegeddon" Bruce Willis was still getting huge studio movie paychecks without Michael Bay.
But I'll buy that Rachel Taylor isn't interested in the money so much as the "art."
