Musk was reportedly motivated to foil the attack out of concern that a strike on Crimea would constitute a “mini-Pearl Harbor” and lead to Russia retaliating with nuclear weapons

Michael Bay making a movie that he thought would gain him prestige but it ended up it was way longer than it should've been and no one liked it.
