As title say. We need a TL where Michael Bay is prohibited from making movies. The world should be a little better...

Wikipedia may help...

Michael Bay was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. He was raised by his adoptive parents Harriet, a bookstore owner/child psychiatrist, and Jim, a CPA.[7] Bay's grandfather was Russian.[8] His cousin, Susan Bay, is the wife of Star Trek actor Leonard Nimoy.[9] He attended the exclusive Crossroads School, in Santa Monica, California.[10]



Bay often traces his interest in action films back to an incident during his childhood. As a boy, he attached some firecrackers to a toy train and filmed the ensuing fiery disaster with his mother's 8mm camera. The fire department was called and he was grounded.[11]
Career

Bay got his start in the film industry interning with George Lucas when he was fifteen, filing the storyboards for Raiders of the Lost Ark, which he thought was going to be terrible. His opinion changed after seeing it in the theater and he was so impressed by the experience that he decided to become a film director.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Bay#cite_note-11

there's some interesting PODs there. Either Nimoy marries someone else, and the butterflies (hopefully) prevent Bay from handling a camera.

Or the firecracker blew in his face, and his life takes a turn, hopefully as far as possible from movie making.

Or, simply, Lucas Raiders of the lost ark bombs, or is never made.
