Last year it was Superman vs Pirates, this year its Transformers vs Die Hard 4 for July box office dollars. To the victor goes...well bragging rights since both are probably going to bank a crapload of money.
In this battle, Bruce Willis launched the opening salvo by commenting on the AICN messages boards:
Bay...Would have ruined DH4. Few people will work with him now, and I know I will never work with him again.Michael Bay in return responded via his blog:
Hard to believe it really is Bruce saying that stuff on AICN. I
loved working with Bruce. He gave me a big hug one month ago at the GM party and
we talked for 20 minutes. We even talked about working together again! I mean it
would be sad if he felt this way - he's never one to hide his feelings - I say
sad, in that he wouldn't be man enough to say it to my face. But truly sad that
such a big time actor would have to hide on a little talk back section. So I
really don't believe this story.
I find it also totally odd that my
agents at William Morris got the call from Bruce's people to inquire if I would
like to helm Die Hard 4, but I was already on Transformers.

Real feud? Friends having fun over competing films? Marketing stunt? Who knows except those two.
