In 1998
Steven Spielberg shocked the cinematic frontier with his film
Saving Private Ryan which had one of the most brutal depictions of warfare, with its opening battle-scene. This caused a small shift in the ways Hollywood was trying to cinematically portray war. And who's better than
Ridley Scott, to attempt at beating Spielberg at war footage. Which he tried to do with his 2001 film
Black Hawk Down.

In my review of
Bad Boys II I talked about how Michael Bay needed to discharge from
Pearl Harbor and do a properly Bayhem! movie. This speculation of mine is largely based on some stories from the set of this movie, where it looked like Bay tried to actually make a properly directed film in the very beginning and then suddenly snapped and started setting up Bayhem! shots out of nowhere in the middle of production. And when people pointed that out to him he told them to "Shut the fuck up" and that he "knows what he is doing".
