Dark of the Moon The Official Transformers 3 News And Speculation Thread

[Spade]

In the Megatron: Origin comic he had the same type of shield, I like how faithful they are being with him, though his face seems a little too Alpha Trion-like.

Considering Alpha Trion in this movie could be the goofy Einstein-bot? I'm okay with that.

Do we have a closeup picture of Megatron's face?

Imagine a robot sphincter, but angrier. It's like that.

Oh wait, I'm thinking of Devastator.

 

[Avengers-Report]

When/where can we get these figures? Movie time?

 

[Spade]

In May, two months before the movie comes out.

 

[BigThor]

Goodnews!!!

Transformers Dark of the Moon's videogame is being developed by HighMoon, that is the same company the developed Transformers: War for Cybertron (great game).

 

[Ipodman]

Yea they wanna do something similar to WFC

 

[mc7791]

how is Sentinel Prime going to get to Earth and what role will the Ark play? I want to see how all that is explained and played out. I hope the explanation is good.

 

[protocida]

From what I've gathered, Sentinel Prime led an expedition to the Center of the Universe in the Ark in order to capture an echo between parallel dimensions that could be turned into Energon, but something went wrong and he crash-landed on the Moon and laid dormant for years. The american government eventually found him and secretly transported it to Earth. Shockwave is after the result of his experience. The energy generated from the echo.

 

[mc7791]

ok cool. where did you get that information from? did the government take parts of the Ark too? Will any of this be explained and how it was not a part of sector 7?

 

[protocida]

That's unclear, but several sources stated that Shockwave wants what the US government found on the Moon. The last movie stated that Sentinel Prime led an expedition to catch an echo between parallel Universes and disappeared during it, so, the connection is made. But the rumors of a space race between America and Russia seem to indicate that the Ark is still on the Moon or something. I really don't know details about its location. All we know is that Sentinel Prime was awakened by the Apollo 11 crew and is on Earth during the final battle in Chicago.

sorry but even in a Transformers movie i can nto accept that humans would be able to bring a huge robot fro mMoon to Earth without anyone reporting about it.

this is to much even for a movie.

 

[protocida]

That's the part that we're not certain of.

after the covered up the mission city battle I stopped questioning such things

I did the same thing, that was enough for me to stop question TF film's realism.

Now I just enjoy them for what they are, very cool entertainment.

 

[Spade]

I forgot Sentinel Prime got named dropped during that whole mental breakdown Sam had in ROTF. Good ear.

 

[mc7791]

really? I missed that. I didnt even see discussions about. But if so then that works for me.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

I've just seen images of the toy for DOTM and it looks like the Wreckers will be, Roadbuster (green), Topspin (blue) and Leadfoot (red). The identities of the Ferrari and Mercedes can't be far behind, hopefully.

 

[protocida]

Didn't they confirm that the Mercedes is Wheeljack?

 

[8wid]

So how does Unicron end up crash landing on the Moon?

 

[protocida]

It's not Unicron, it's Sentinel Prime.

 

[Spade]

Unless the end of this movie is wild, Unicron isn't in this trilogy.

 

[<(o_o)>]

Hopefully there is a spinach chin joke in the movie about how ridiculous it is for a robot to have a goatee.

 

[Chris B]

I'm really impressed by how Sentinel Prime's design turned out. I think I just might get his toy when it comes out.

And I also wouldn't mind seeing Leonard Nimoy briefly come out of retirement to lend his voice.

 

[Chris B]

Didn't they confirm that the Mercedes is Wheeljack?

Not yet, but I'd bet my life savings that who the Mercedes is.

 

[Avengers-Report]

So what does the Ark do? And what role does it play in this movie?

 

[Spade]

No clue, but the Hasbro toy fair has it unfolding into a space station.

May or may not be a movie feature; but the fair also revealed Roadbuster (green NASCAR) and Topspin (blue NASCAR) as names for the Wreckers. Also, Roller- Prime's companion from the cartoons- is part of the Ark playset.
