"We haven't lost the Transformers. They didn't grow up or become expensive like Toby Maguire." For the Second Trilogy it wont be hard to introduce, Galavatron [thogh personaly id love for them to use Bludgeon or Thunderwing] |

^ As long as Jazz and Ironhide don't get killed off and Sideswipe is exactly the same as he is in these movies.

1. Same continuity
2. Different direction (more serious) 2. More focus on the TFs 3. Get rid of the human characters except for Lennox and Epps 4. Add Marissa Fairbourne 5. Better director and writers I'm assuming that there are still a lot of Decepticons on Earth. There can be 2 factions. 1 lead by Bludgeon, the other lead by Thunderwing. Cons vs Cons with the Bots caught in the middle. Last edited by Jake Cassidy; 07-07-2011 at 03:55 AM. |

Transformer fans may be vocal, but they don't get you millions at the box office. Good special effects and explosions get you millions at the box office.

And I'm not some 80's purist. I also liked Beast Wars, TF: Animated, TF: Prime, and I did like the first movie. I even bough all the toys from the first one. I didn't like, however, TF: Armada and all the other anime crap, Beast Machines, or RotF. Siebertron.com is one of the sites I check daily, along with SSH. Quote:

I glad to see that a reboot is not even in the cards. I'd rather they continue the franchise because despite Bay's lack of a good storytelling in his trilogy. These films have made a massive amount of money in the box office, as well as the product merchandising etc...
I'd love to see the Dinobots, The triple changers, The Aerialbots etc... and of course Primus vs. Unicron .

I imagine most of us were around 10 or so when TFTM was released. That being said, we all thought it was the most awesome movie ever. As Optimus Prime points out though, it had huge problems. At age 10, we couldn't see them. Now, at 35, we choose not to see them, because when we watch it, or remember it, we're 10 again, and we don't care.

Depends. I feel real sorry for whoever has to come in and try to write a continuation after the mess the last two movies were, it might be easier to just have a reboot.
I also wish somebody would be on board that will put the budget towards good quality Transformers time, not just see a couple of the "fan favorites" have a shoot out scene for a minute, then disappear for the rest of the film. I wonder how much money was wasted on John Malcovich that could have been used on Ironhide blasting away an extra 5 dreads before he got stabbed in the back? This is tough, I like the designs of the Transformers, I like the roles that Lennox and Epps played, and would like to see them expanded, and like people say, there's tons of more Transformers to bring in, and maybe Hasbro can invent a new bad guy. |

Based on employment websites and production info on the first two movies, each Transformer costs about $1.5 million per minute of screen time, per animator working on him. FYI, this would put the budget of a fully CGI movie, somewhere around $200 million plus, per bot, for a two hour film. I doubt any studio would green light that budget.

Man I wish they threw in some more time for them in DOTM. Agreed, Transformers 1 didnt seem that way though. Everything seemed balanced out and we got tons of Bot vs Bot time and that was a less expensive film. These movies make so much money they could have shelled out a bit more to balance between the humans and bots at the end in Chicago. Only Bee and Prime have their moments, with some quick stuff of the wreckers. The humans didnt need help except for Optimus/Bumblebee coming in last minute every other scene.
Im fine without them rebooting. I have fun with these films and would like to see another one asap with less human focus of course. Doesnt need to disappear just minimized a bit. Although a prequel on Cybertron would be pretty awesome. Last edited by def28; 07-07-2011 at 01:54 PM. |

I think it really should be a reboot. Sure, I admit that there are tons of new Transformers that they could introduce, but a Movie without either Starscream, Soundwave, Megatron or Shockwave? They wasted all the big guns in this Movie. And Cybertron is gone. That's just screaming for to start from scratch.

For me Live-Action will always have to give added weight to the human actors. If people want a robot-centric story they need to stick to the cartoons. It's not just the expense, it's the fact that it's pointless to do a 'live action' movie that's just filled with a bunch of cgi characters in real environments.
