Ok! cross Transformers with X-Men then!

Been there, done that... sort of.

Christ! what are you doing up at this time of the morning? could you not sleep either?

Erm, it's 11:38pm at night, here.

Ah right, sorry, it's this website, it shows your last post there at 3:38am.

It is a bit difficult to get used to different fans in different times no? Here it's 1:20am

Seibertron (and every other forum) displays all post times in the time zone you have it set to, not the poster's time zone.

[D-Maximal_Primal]

Yes, but it is still fun to see what time it is in other places. kinda like a world clock going no?

Besides: still think they could pull of a fairly decent beast wars movie with the right crew.

[Zeedust]

to the extent that the movies will go stale

Your mileage may vary as to whether or not this has already happened. AoE made me die a little inside.

I know tf 5 isn't out til 2017 & this expanded universe probably won't start til around or after then but.....since the last piece of news that we did hear....it's been all quiet on the western front since then! Granted I don't expect them to dripfeed us info on a daily basis....but you'd at least expect SOMETHING new! rather than this prolonged period of silence.

Meh. I'm in no rush to see my favorite franchise shat upon even more.

Bay's next movie hits theaters in October, so when they're doing interviews and stuff for that, TF5 will probably be brought up. I'm guessing they're doing all the prep for it now, and it will start shooting next spring.

I think a Transformers Beast Wars movie would be awesome. Maybe they can use the Scorn deluxe figure from AOE to make a Megatron. I know it's not an original idea but that's what I want.

Also I think they should put Triplechangers and Headmasters in the movies. I would love to see Blitzwing, Springer, Brainstorm, and Chromedome get featured in the movies.

I'm also kinda hoping someone else will help write, if not direct the next Transformers movies. I want the new characters to not just be background characters, and only in it for two scenes, till they die.

[SlyTF1]

TF5 and animated Cybertron prequel confirmed.

Well at least we know who's writing the fifth tf movie, though the article I read also included the rumour about prime fighting unicorn.

Wonder how well the prequel film will come out.

It'll be perfect. A Transformers movie with absolutely no humans. It's a dream come true. As long as Optimus is still the main character, anyway. I hope so.

Via Seibertronians Absolute Zero and SyTF1 we have confirmation (and cancellation) of some of the rumours that have been floating around the interwebs for the past couple of months regarding Paramount's upcoming Transformers 5 and the potential animated feature.

According to Deadline, Akiva Goldsman has now a project to pitch for both the sequel and the Cybertron-based prequel from the writers' room, seemingly with Mark Wahlberg confirmed in some role, but not confirmation of Michael Bay directing yet. Read more here and a snippet below!

EXCLUSIVE: It’s pencils down for the Transformers Writers Room; the experiment has concluded and the early results are in. Akiva Goldsman has walked away with a concrete blueprint to write a Transformers sequel for Mark Wahlberg to star in for Michael Bay to direct, with production starting in June. Ant-Man scribes Andrew Barrer & Gabriel Ferrari will head off and write an animated feature, an origin story that focuses on Cybertron, the planet from which the good and bad Transformer robots hail.

[Hellscream9999]

'kay; hoping they'll be good, but not holding my breath; eagerly anticipating the figures though

[ZeroWolf]

I thought it had been confirmed that bay was coming back for the next one?

I mean at this point paramount are walking up to bay with a big blank cheque with a sure smile on their faces given the movies past box office takings

I'm going to hesitantly agree with you sly, a lot of people have been asking for a humanless tf movie, let's see if they'll regret it after wards.

Well at least we know who's writing the fifth tf movie, though the article I read also included the rumour about prime fighting unicorn.

That one was, for now, debunked. Mark Ryan knew not what he was saying.

[Rodimus Prime]

Is it bad that I'm looking forward to the animated feature more than the live action film? I want a movie taking place on Cybertron,

You know not what you're saying! Prime fighting Unicron is probably 'meh' at best, but Prime fighting a Unicorn? That is going to be awesome beyond words!

[BumbleDouche]

I swear these guys just keep thinking of new ways to screw with us... "What will really irritate the hardcore fans? More Michael Bay? Let's do that! What? We haven't destroyed their origins yet? Oooh, yes! Lets do that too! Just remember to make it as nonsensical as possible!"

Then rely on the subsequent negative press and Bay-bashing, which inadvertently promotes for them the very crap they're producing.

I wish they'd just euthanise this poorly-executed junk and start again... But considering the obscene amounts of money they're making, I consider that highly unlikely.

[Windsweeper]

After Batman and Robin I despair when I see Akiva Goldsmith associated with anything.

After Batman and Robin I despair when I see Akiva Goldsmith associated with anything.

The movies he's written for are a bit hit and miss.

Surely he can't do any worse than the last bloke.

[dragons]

Didn't mark whalberg said he and bay will return from last interview he was in?

[D-Maximal_Primal]

I'll wait to make any decisions, make any opinions until a story pitch is ready, filming has ended and we start to see CGI footage and spoiler alerts

[MaverickPrime]

Akiva Goldsman is ALSO gonna write the animated one?!? Oh, for f***'s sake! What's the point of reeling so many people for the brain trust if they'll give two to the one responsible for a movie that nearly killed super hero movies?
And come on, who are we kidding, ourselves? Bay will direct TF5 -_-
Between this and Mega Man's movie being made by Fox...I don't think I can take it

[Sabrblade]

Oh how easily this fandom forgets that we already got a fully CGI animated, humanless, Cybertron-set movie before.
