Age of Extinction Possible Sequel Storylines? Plots? Concept Art? Etc. Post Here

[DCnightwing23]

Well we all know so far that the Transformers film series has fallen a little flat with story, etc. Usually the comics before hand over power the film story wise. And everyone seems to complain about a similar thing... Story (plots, etc.)

So what are your ideas??

Me personally id like to see them try and find the Ark again. It holds over 350 transformers and is huge. Maybe they send out a group of transformers (for the autobots) and try to search for it using advanced technology to try and find it. And they keep in touch with the Rest of the Transformers on earth (autobots) but at the same time we have Megs send out his own fleet to find their own ship the Nemesis so it turns into an all out fight in space and on Earth. And while in space the ones that are left on Earth still work with the government and help them cause Megs sends out powerful Decepticons (Dinobots) that keep the Autobots hands full protecting Earth from destruction.


Idk where the story goes from there but i personally think it would be cool. We see a side of Megatron we havent seen before (stratigec, ahead of everyone, smarter) And its a war on Earth and in Space. Also it'd be nice to develope the characters more and cut down the line-up (on Earth mostly) but still keep Sam everyone else around but not as BIG. Maybe Sam is still in college (maybe a junior or senior now) and Mikaela finally joins him and they help the government help the Autobots fight off the Dinobots and other powerful decpticons that Megatron sends out across the Globe (one of them Soundwave, on earth kicking ass)

And we see Starscream plotting against Megatron (finally)

Maybe you like my idea?? I'd love to hear opinions

I also wanna hear what you guys have for ideas for the story, etc.

I would like to see Ultra Magnus and see him be a Optimus' bro...But maybe Magnus could like work freelance...whoever gives him the better deal, he'll join with them...But also, the a stray brother is quite cliche...

 

[sabetoonth]

the dinobots land on earth and reveal to the tfs that unicron has chased them from a planet populated by dinosaur like creatures to earth, now magatron has to choose to fight withthe autoots for the existence of himself and his followers and destroy the planet eater, maybe some epic primus/unicron combat

 

[TheVelvetOnion]

See my topic about figured it out for full detail. But simply to sum it up.

Megatron wants revenge for killing The Fallen, attempts to bring Unicron to earth to destroy it and harvest the energon in its core. However Unicron's comming has been predicted by the Maya Civilsation to the date of the end of the world. - The maya also talk about a new PRIME that rises from the event however has the power to save them if he choses the side of good. Megatron learns of this prophecy and discovers that HOT ROD a new autobot that came to earth is the future prime, Megatron attempts to merge with Hot Rod to become a prime of his own known as Galvatron... thus becoming the new Prime Leader of the autobots. Autobots and Decepticones fight, Unicron comes, Megatron becomes Galvatron, however Optimus is able to perge Hot Rod from this and he becomes Rodminus Prime... Both Unicron and Megatron are then dragged into the suns atmospher as starscream yet again escapes.

The franchise has been moving forward and backward, so that should continue.

They need to get into the Transformers creation, Vector Sigma, and the Transformer society before the All Spark was lost.

The Dinobots could be seen in the beginning, going even further back than ROTF's timeline did.

New characters? Unicron, Galvatron, Hot Rod and a TON of other Decepticons and Autobots. I know people wanted less robots, but the way to go is more in my mind. Use them as extras if you must, whatever, just make the scale even bigger. The Transformers' war needs to go global, with some of it occurring on Cybertron this time around, which would give Soundwave his chance to shine. That might allow for the Ark (original name, ain't it?) and the Nemesis to be seen.

 

[DCnightwing23]

I honestly like all these ideas so far. Really creative. Good job

 

[8wid]

Unicron would be awesome.

 

[sabetoonth]

unicron is a must , we go from the decepticon leader, to th first decepticon, now itss trime for the corruptor of the first decepticon to appear, unicron, he wont eat the sun, but he will eat the earth

 

[DCnightwing23]

Yeah that would be pretty interesting. But what about Autobots. Id like to maybe see some possible flashbacks before they got to earth and what not. Not just have it flashback to when Megatron was destroying everything like in T1. Maybe when they were on the Ark (my first post above)

 

[sabetoonth]

wasnt the nemmesis the ship the fallen was in? were sswas trying t make babies by himself

 

[DCnightwing23]

No according to the prequel comics or something like that the ships were lost in some kind of spacial rift. So it would be cool if in the third they go out in search of it and in search of other tranformers. (see above)

 

[sabetoonth]

oh i thought it was the wreckage or remnants of the nemesis. if they went inot space you could cut nimbers without cutting numbers, or if they took sam and mickeala or all the other human characters like that with them that would be pretty neat, like in tfarmada when they went after unicron and did it from cybortron.
if the included mini cons that could be neat

 

[DCnightwing23]

Hmm true they could have them go with them would be cool. I was thinking maybe they split the autobots team up so that one group would stay on earth to protect Sam, as sam may know something about where the ark is. Having communication with the group that leaves to space. But instead of going to space with the other group the group that stays has to battle Dinobots that Megatron sends out to distract them. So its more of a even fight. So we have a fight and race in space (1 autobot shuttle, 1 decpticon suttle) and a war on earth still. It would be cool.

I was also thinking and this is for the final movie whenever that might be, but for the final movie of the series i thought the last huge scene should be a battle between the two ships once more even bigger and badder. And they are fighting and Autobots seem to have the edge the Nemesis is being taken down so the Decpticons go aboard the Ark and then theres a huge battle inside the Ark, and they are both sent into another spacial rift and the last thing we see is Earth (view from space) and the two ships being taken down onto it (what the audience doesnt know is which Earth it is) and you see the Nemesis crash into the sea and the Ark into a Volcano.

Similar to BW, as an opening to what happens next (tv series wise)

 

[sabetoonth]

very nice, if sam knows anything about the ark they would take him with them for safe keeping, and then mickala wants to go then simmons feels the need to monitor them or something and leo tags along as sams sidekick

 

[Miliwolf]

Dinobots are autobots, the personalities which make them such great characters would not be able to be express if they were Cons. If you want powerful Cons maybe use a more powerful version of the Combaticons instead

I have a few ideas in my mind but still have not gotten a good plot to join them all together.

 

[sabetoonth]

i thought dinobots were thre own side

 

[DCnightwing23]

Well miliwolf post them as soon as you get them together id love to hear them

As for your comment on Dinobots being Autobots yes that is ture. What i was looking for in my ideas is that Megatron summons these legendary Dinosaur transformers from Prehistoric times, and that he lets them loose all over the world so the Dinobots are destroying everything. What i think, and i failing to mention this before, my idea is that since Megatron summons them back from stasis lock that they think hes some god to them. So they listen. Cause Megatron changed there protocols and what side there on while they were in stasis lock. But eventually Optimus fixes them and so forth.

 

[DCnightwing23]

Perhaps the Dinobots sacrifice themselves to Protect Sam or Optimus later on

 

[sabetoonth]

or just change to dinomode and ransack the con base

 

[sabetoonth]

or just change to dinomode and ransack the con base tearing the unexpecting cons apart, those who dont escapr that is

 

[DCnightwing23]

I always thought Transformers armor should be more powerful as well. Should be fixed in future installments, the fact that Transformers get taken down by bullets is not that good.

Back to the subject. I also think that the Autobots should get their own base. They seem to always be camping around with soldiers. I'd like to see them with their own pad.

Anyone else have any ideas to what stories are needed for future installments?? (read mine above)

 

[Miliwolf]

I agree that the transformers are surprisingly weak in the movies...

 

[Miliwolf]

Here are a few of my ideas.... (I got a bit carried away and wrote in more detail then I planned)

(edit: Summary at end)

I would like the movie to start a few years in the future, the cons have gathered their forces and basically gained control over much of the Earth. The autobots and the reminder of the earths military, have been taking heavy damage and have fortified themselves into a single main base of operations with several minor outposts.

We would then see inside one of the bunkers where Ratchet and a few others are hard at work trying to repair the causticities from the latest battle. Down there a discussion is taking place that unless the Autobots reinforcements arrive shortly they would not hold out for much longer.

The scene now shifts to the edge of the solar system, there a large Shuttle is powering towards earth. But its arrival has already been detected by Soundwave who has been intercepting and blocking all of its communications. The shuttle starts its entry into earths atmosphere only to be intercepted by a Squadron of 8 seeker jets lead by Starscream.

The Seekers open fire spraying the large shuttle. We get to see inside the shuttle for the first time. A argument is taking place between a group of autobots and the shuttle itself... We are informed that it is impossible to return fire or to take invasive actions once atmospheric entry has began.

The large shuttle takes considerable damage as it rockets towards the earth overshooting the autobot controlled area. Still a good distance above the ground the shuttle is finally able to return fire. One of the Jets takes a hit and limps away from battle but the rest continual their ruthless assault. The shuttle now bellowing massive amounts of smoke heads towards the ground. Inside the shuttle one of the bots have had enough and against a hail of complaints and warnings to stop it rips open a door and out it leaps followed by 4 more. At first they continue to fall but are quickly propelled upwards by a mysterious force (jet packs or something)....

These five bots then release a barrage of fire on the squadron of Seeker jets, one taking the full force explodes in mid flight two others take heavy damage and fall far behind.

Then began a aerial battle, although still heading towards the ground... The seekers at great speed fly around the five bots who return a steady stream of fire but seem to slow to be a real threat. The swift seekers score several direct hits their weapons barely dent the heavily amoured bots.... The ground now fast approaching Starscream charges directly at the leader of the group lasers blasting, the two collide mid-flight (SS turning to robot mode) sending them spiraling towards the ground sharing blows, the others are not far behind.

In the distance the Autobot shuttle slams across the ground leaving a trail of debris. It finally cames to a smashing stop, the sound was enough to regain the attention of the battle damaged seekers who rocket away from their fight in a attempt to finish off the down shuttle, upon hitting the ground a badly damage starscream manages to free himself from the grip of the Autobot and transformer back into Jet mode to chases after the other seekers.

A door opens on the crashed shuttle, and a group of popular autobots stumble out. Only to see the seekers approaching quickly... They transform and get ready for the assault... Then for the first time we see a large line of Cons lead by Megatron also approaching the shuttle....

It now becomes obvious that the group of autobots who just exit the shuttle are greatly outnumbered, the seekers arrive spraying the area while avoiding much of the return fire... In the distance the group of five autobots who leaped from the shuttle are still a good distance away but are now charging back towards it as huge mechanical beast like prototype forms (Dinobots).

With the deception convoy fast approaching all hope seem to be gone. That is when the badly damaged shuttle attempts to Transform, after a while a badly damaged and on fire Omega Supreme towers above the battle field... With a clumsy but still accurate blast from his massive canon he vaporises a couple of the strafing seekers sending the others scattering in a chaotic retreat to a safe distance....

Sending a shower of burning debris Omega turns around sending several devastating blasts towards the approaching deceptions... halting their advance, they start to return fire.... The autobots on the ground also return fire. both sides taking a few casualties..... Omega now badly engulfed in flames using the last of his strength continues to send a series of massive blast towards the cons...

The Dinobots finally arrive at the battle but they do not stop but charges directly at the pinned down Cons.. The other autobots also go on the offensive and closes the gap with the cons. Grimlock charges directly at Megatron, and the two powerful bots collide into battle.

At this stage the towering Omega loses his footing and goes collapsing to the ground in a series of explosions. It appears that the Decepticons (who outnumber the autobots) might be gaining the upper hand.... but Omegas efforts was not in vain with the arrival of Optimus prime and many other autobots.... At this stage, seeing the numbers have turned Megatron manages to free himself from the ruthless onslaught of Grimlock and orders the retreat.

End of part 1


TL;DR version.

The Cons control most of the earth, the Autobots are now restricted to a single heavily fortified base. There they wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

Omega Supreme arrives transporting the Dinobots and others, but gets attacked by seeker jets. He crashes, and the decepticons arrive first, during the battle Omega explodes. But the Dinobots and other bots have charge into battle... the arrival of Optimus and other autobots forces the Decepicons to retreat.

 

[sabetoonth]

with that i saw a scene were the dinobots stay in dino form and just destroy the cons. with grimlock knocking over one and biting down on its head then shaking his head and tearing the upper torso off

 

[storyteller]

I honestly dont see how Transformers 2 story was flat. It actually opened up much more. They introduced energon, Why the race really is dying, the world is now aware of the transformers, who knows what else was hidden on earth. They can go a lot of places.
