How would certain ponies be characterized by Michael Bay?

[eddeams 62]

This is some really dumb thought experiment I came up with. Given how Michael Bay has drawn flak for how he characterized certain Transformers characters, (most notable Optimus Prime) what personalities would he give specific ponies?

explosions and commercially suggestive gratuitous nudity afaik. So basically, the movie that this picture would advertise

[Dwayne Johnson as Princess Celestia] "The United Equestria government has just asked us to save the world."

[Steve Buscemi as Princess Explodia, stroking manly stubble] "I know, mare. I know."

*Transition to Princess Explodia and Princess Celestia holding hooves while cuddling a hypersonic missile*

[Steve Buscemi as Princess Explodia, emotionally] "Hey Celestia, you know we're cuddling 4 million lbs of fuel and a nuclear weapon?"

[Dwayne Johnson as Princess Celestia] "Oh yeah. Just like old times.

*Transition to the scene in the picture*

Enough gratuitously naked soaked mute mare kissing for the male audience to shift uncomfortably in the seats. Nopony knows their names. Nopony cares.

*Transition to large firey death weapon*

[Steve Buscemi as Princess Explodia] "It's going to explode!"

[Dwayne Johnson as Princess Celestia] "Ooooh sh---"

NOPE! NOPE!

Michal bay ruined Transformers I think. He ruined TMNT. He would ruin MLP if this happened so nope.

Probably something like this

Explosions, sexy women, crass humor, propaganda for the US military, and characters that look nothing like the ones they’re based off of while being treated like garbage. The works.

Spoiler

First Bayformers was not bad

They would probably have shallow personalities and many of them might get killed off after appearing in a few scenes. You know how it is, got to make a cool-looking character with decent potential appear for a scene or two for the sake of marketing the toys!

I imagine Princess Celestia would be portrayed as a murderous lunatic like Optimus Prime was.

Optimus prime: GIVE ME YOUR FACE!

Optimus prime: GIVE ME YOUR FACE! ( proceeds to rip other bots face off.

I can't harp on the Bayformers too much. I look at my ever growing collection of the movieverse Transformers and I can't in good conscious say I hate all of them. If nothing else

1) Megatron, barring the first movie, usually looked fantastic

2) I has one of the coolest depictions of my favorite Autobot, Sideswipe

3) Soundwave being a satellite in ROTF is a perfect modern alt mode for him

Celestia ripping off the faces of other ponies would be a step up from how she's typically depicted for 90% of the series honestly

Well judging by TMNT

Realistic eyes

Gruffy tough guys, but interms of girls eh i dunno.

My guess would be this (maybe a little bit more grittier but thats my guess of Michael Bay stuff, and guns and explosions)

Presumably they would all explode.
