With Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen now having surpassed $800 million in global box office, Michael Bay has finally moved on the intimate labor of love he promised the world months ago. And judging by the first behind-the-scenes images from the set, no one can really deny he's returned to basics: Just one director, his tiny crew, and a bevy of semi-naked Victoria's Secret models stranded in the desert. More photos after the jump.
Bay just released the shots on his Web site a few hours ago, offering a sneak peek at the ads he's currently shooting for the lingerie superpower. All looks peaceful now -- almost too good to be true, really. Just wait for those angry public exchanges to come when Alessandra Ambrosio tells Harry Smith about the baffling, migraine-inducing film that results, or Lindsay Ellingson's haunting reminiscence of her audition washing the director's Ferrari. And don't even get the critics started about all the product placement. Some geniuses just can't catch a break.
