Transformers 2 & 3?

[OptimusCannabis]

I FOUND THIS ON IMDB. DON'T KNOW IF IT'S TRUE OR NOT BUT IT IS INTRESTING:

"ok i found this whilst having a rummage around... it sounds quite likely cos its a close storyline to the original but changed enough to suit the new hollywood stylings...... i don't know what half of it means... it's so cryptic but could any of it possibly b tru?!?

also if anyone could translate any of this it would be nice.... the bits i can understand sound like the most epic sage/trilogy since the beginning of sci fi's existence!

TRANSFORMERS 3 (working title awaiting funding) INITIAL IDEAS AND THOUGHTS PREMISE

- MT Death (D)
- 'Planet Eater' Introduced (D)
- 'Galvanised Warrior' Introduced (D)
- Omega Supreme Introduced (A)
- AT vs OS (D/A)

- 3 Simultaneous Final Battles

*human relations develeopment concept awaited*"

what do you guys think... see what i mean about the cryptiness"

[TONYM]

looks to me like *human relations development concept awaited* must be how the humans fit into the story. OP death by TW means tidal wave kills prime,RP rise means hot rod becomes rodimus prime.MT must be megatron who becomes galvatron in the third film hence the "galvanised warrior" AT vs OS must be astrotrain vs omega supreme(i`m assuming thats a battle in space seeing as their both shuttles).RP vs MT must be a battle over the matrix(what ever they call it)pretty much like the first movie(animated),which leaves BB vs UC which surely can`t be bumblebee versus unicron (talk about drawing the short straw).other than that i haven`t got a clue what (A) (D) AND (A/D) your guess is as good as my.i like the idea of 3 simultaneous battles very return of the jedi.

[Chris B]

I have a hard time believing any of that.

[Starscreamer]

They cannot KILL Optimus Prime again! When will they LEARN?! People do NOT want Rodimus Prime they want the REAL Prime. It killed Transformers in 1986 and it will do it again!

[TONYM]

To be honest i don`t think it`s true,maybe just a pitch for which direction the franchise should go in.Someones gonna die but i doubt it`s gonna be prime just yet.

[The Dutch Hulk]

Couldn't agree with you more. We want the REAL Prime!!!

[Destructicus]

I think A means Accepted

and D means Denied.

I agree that Prime should not die. Hot Rod should stay Hot Rod. But its imdb. When has imdb given any information that was true or completly stupid? Anyone remember the info on imdb about carnage in S3. The actor who played aunt may was said on imdb to be carnage............I rest my case.

[Syn (Mercenary)]

Guys...um...IMDB is one of the least reliable sources. They said Aunt May was playing Carnage in SM3. We saw BB as a 2009 Camaro at the end of the movie, so he is obviously repaired, and doesn't need to be rebuilt. If you keep looking at each statement, you can figure that they are not true. And to top it off, as I said, IMDB is not reliable.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Optimus should not die in the 2nd movie, that would be just stupid, he needs to survive at least until the end of the 3rd movie.

[spidergrant]

ok i think everyone kind of thinks that starscream will be the decepticon leader in the next and the third the villain will be uncicron and galvatron. now that i think about it i bet they could make unicron look really awesome

[Eternalzero]

Fake..


Bumblebee will not be damaged enough to become a VW temp. The "A" is no where near accurate.

Bay said he didn't want him to be confused with herbie, not to mention that Transformers only supports American made cars.

...all of it is crap.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

^Thats what i though when i first saw this news as well, some of it sounds plausible most of it doesnt though.

And why does TF only do American cars?

[tviceman]

Optimus Prime dying in Transformers 2 would be like Neo dying in Matrix 2, or Luke Skywalker dying in Empire Strikes Back.

[ScarletVenom25]

A means Autobot, D means Decepticon. Its pretty simple actually.

Listing Unicron as a Decepticon obviously means its fake. I dislike everything about these "plans", except Unicron in TF3. Itll probably be like that, so we should get used to it.

[Apollo]

i'd see them, hope they make them, i loved the first one

[Retroman]

UPDATE
Not sure if this has been mentioned on the boards. The following was posted on Transformers Sculptor/Illustrator Duncan Crawford's blog. Could they be filming sequels back-to-back?

What's next?

Well, my sculpting run on Indy 4 has come to an end. Can't discuss anything I worked on, but I will say the sets looked great and Spielberg and company are going all out to bring the fans something special. Now the long wait for it's release.

Here are the rumors for what movies are next:
Star Trek is currently in the construction phase, Land Of The Lost is just about to get going, Transformers 2 & 3 might be ramping up in the beginning of the year and there's some talk of a GI Joe movie.
We'll wait to see where I end up.Source Links:http://skulboy6.blogspot.com/

[XXTBWCXX]

Lol....it's obvious A is for Autobots and D is for Decepticons.

It means which storyline is for which faction.

But I don't like any of those ideas.

Hopefully this doesn't turn into a Spider-Man 3 suckfest, lol.

So THAT'S what started the whole "Aunt May is Carnage" thing around the Spider-Man 3 forums, haha.

Another reason why this is a bunch or made-up rumors?: Peter Cullen signed for two sequels; Optimus Prime will be in Transformers 2 and 3.

[A Dark Knight]

Send this post to Bay! NOBODY wants to see OP get KILLED! Get this out of your head TF writers.

[HULKSTER'04]

hey you guys! Congrats on the box office hit of transformers movie, really great film by the way. I have a friend here and she's a fan of the franchise, and she would like to know if this female transformer would appear in the next sequel? I really don't know much about transformers, but i've seen the cartoons before and enjoyed it too( i was astounded to see Optimus Prime so lifelike in the screen) the voice, the moves, the transformation....I mean everything was just so WOW!
Anyways I just want your opinion about my question, my friend is actually a girl and that's why she was so interested in this female transformer character. I hope you'll help me out.thanks!

[Dragons Claws]

Whenever I look on boards for information on the sequels I seem to find a common recurrence and that it that people seem to either want or (inthe case of fake storylines posted) expect this trilogy to be an extended version of the animated movie. I may be alone in this but I have to state that I want orginal story, I don't want Optimus dying, Hot Rod becoming Rodimus, anything to do with Unicron and I'm not entirely sure I want to see Megs become Galvatron.......again.In fact the less to do with the '86 movie as possible the bettere ,. Most of the ideas in it have now been overused by various other versions of th franchise and, as fond as I am of the movie, it still to me represents the birth of Season 3 and therefore the end of G1.
I would prefer to use some og the older characters still such as the other jets ( I appreciate they can't all be the same jet in different colours likein te cartoon but it would be good if they used different fighter planes). Also I wuld love to see Hound involved and a bit of development on the transformers characters.

[spidergrant]

i just hope they add the big characters like ultra magnus, devestator, and some otyher big characters

[TNC9852002]

I want an original story too and not a bunch of weird situations being made to turn the movie into some kind of live-action spin-off of the old cartoons. You just can't be selective and biased from the material like that. TF has been around for a long time and you should be able to gather ideas from the entire scope of the franchise and not bog down to what G1 did.

-TNC

[spidergrant]

yeah good point. the only old things we should see are the characters from g1

[CorpusBlack]

They cannot KILL Optimus Prime again! When will they LEARN?! People do NOT want Rodimus Prime they want the REAL Prime. It killed Transformers in 1986 and it will do it again!

I agree, don't kill Optimus but Hot Rod is cool as s--t. Just as Hot Rod though.

[spidergrant]

every one is complaining about how they hated hotrod in g1. but characters change over the years and im sure hotrod/ rodimus would be different atleast a little

[Golgo-13]

The thing is, the Hot Rod character (as musch as i hate everything about him) has typically been the Bumblebee character for Spikes son, Daniel. With Sam still being in TF2, and BB with him, there's no need to have a Hot Rod. That is unless he's Hot Rod in name only.

[Jake Cassidy]

As much as I love Hot Rod, I don't think that he should be in it. They should focus on the first/second season characters. Prowl, Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, Cliffjumper, Hound, Mirage, Skyfire/Jetfire, Tracks, Blaster, Inferno, Smokescreen and Omega Supreme for the Autobots. Soundwave, Rumble, Laserbeak, Ravage, Shockwave, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Blitzwing and the Constructicons for the Decepticons. Not all of them, obviously.

[spidergrant]

i say only add 5 characters on each side at the most

[Chris B]

i say only add 5 characters on each side at the most

I would say five more Autobots, but I think the could introduce more Decepticons than that since only two survived from the first film.

I would bring in Prowl, Wheeljack, Mirage, Sideswipe, and Hound as new Autobots. For the Decepticons, Thundercracker, Skywarp, Soundwave with his minions, Shockwave (I'd rather see him assume leadership instead of Starscream), and the Constructicons. I also wouldn't mind seeing a few made-for-the-movie Decepticons, like they did with the first movie.

[spidergrant]

i dont think there were any made for the movie decepticons. blackout was a minicon. and i think everyone else was g1. but really the only decepticons i want are shockwave, soundwave and his original minions, the constructicons (with bone crusher coming back), and maybe tidal wave kind of taking astrotrains place as a way to come back to earth. and theses are the autobots i would consider for the next movie. jet fire/ sky fire, prowl, mirage, sideswipe, sunstreaker, hound, hot rod, ultra magnus, red alert, and maybe hot shot if hot rod isnt in it

[Jake Cassidy]

Barricade was an original movie character, right?

[Eternalzero]

Barricade was an original movie character, right?

yup, he was baaaadd!

[spidergrant]

no im pretty sure there was a g1 barricade but i could be wrong.

[spidergrant]

yep i just checked. he might have just been a toy though. and he was in cybertron so i know transformers the movie wasnt his debut

[CorpusBlack]

every one is complaining about how they hated hotrod in g1. but characters change over the years and im sure hotrod/ rodimus would be different atleast a little

I always liked Hot Rod as Hot Rod. I wasn't crazy about him as Rodimus. I just always thought he looked real cool and I like Judd Nelson.
