That's TF7. Sounds like someone on (the ever-unreliable) Wikipedia doesn't want to acknowledge the Bumblebee movie as being the sixth movie.Munkky wrote:Sabrblade wrote:TF6 is the Bumblebee movie.Munkky wrote:While I do plan to watch The Last Knight, TF6, and probably the Bumblebee movie as well,
Is it? I was going by the Wikipedia page, which says TF6 will be the 2019 movie made after the Bumblebee spin-off.

So basically the Knight Rider resurrection from a couple of years ago.

I remember that. I actually thought it was semi-decent actually, but I dabble

It was awful. It's pseudo-science was so terrible, so stupid that it would make Doctor Who roll his eyes. One time they identified a killer by scanning the residual sound waves in a room. I couldn't stand to watch it.

Like I said, I thought it was semi-decent. I was also 13 at the time and had no background information on it at the time. It was something fun to watch before going to bed

I don't think the filmmakers really hold much regard at all for any of the movie-based comics, since none of those comics had any bearing on the films themselves, and have all been virtually ignored by the films anyway. None of the films have ever given any acknowledgement of the comics' stories within the films' own onscreen narratives. If they wanted to, the filmmakers could easily create their own brand new backstory for how Bumblebee lost his voice that completely ignores the Movie Prequel comics, so long as it wouldn't conflict with what we've seen in the first four films.TulioDude wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Unless it's a prequel set on Cybertron showing us how he lost his voice (*RIP Movie Prequel comics* )TulioDude wrote:I imagine the Bumblebee spin-off being like a movie interpretation of the RID cartoon(2015),with Bumblebee forming his own team to fight a menace that lingers on Earth.
In my mind,the most likely thing would be few flashback scenes,maybe even to show something the carries to the present,and Bumblebee in the present,with him remembering or telling these events.
The talk off a bigger universe makes me feel like they wouldn't so eager to forget the other stories,at least not from here onward anyway.

Also, unless I'm misremembering, isn't the Bumblebee movie going to be animated?

Since 2015, Oscar-winning screenwriter Akiva Goldsman has become a big name in the world of cinematic universe franchises. In collaboration with Paramount Pictures, he not only created a braintrust that would help formulate the future of the Transformers series, but also went on to do the same thing with Hasbro and brands like G.I. Joe and ROM: Space Knight. We haven't seen an actual product from this process just yet, as none of the developing projects have made it to release -- but the methodology is continuing to spread, as the same approach that's going into the construction of the recently-announced Extreme Cinematic Universe.
[...]
[Liefeld:] So I kind of was thinking, 'I'm going to go to this meeting and maybe I'll get a good look at some Dark Tower stuff,' and what ended up happening is he goes, 'I want to hand you this giant black leather-bound equivalent of a phone book,' and it said, "The Transformers Bible." This thing is awesome and Akiva goes, 'I just want you to know, there's only eight of these in existence. Michael Bay has one, I have one, the head of Paramount has one, and the five other people involved have them.' So I flipped through it, and it's every treatment, outlines, screenplay, for the lineup of Transformer films that they have planned, that he was a showrunner for...
So he said to me, he said, 'It's pretty cool, right? I'm like, 'Yeah!' He's like, 'I ran this room; this is what we came up with. This is what I did on behalf of Paramount.' He goes, 'In a couple months, I'm going to go run the Hasbro room, and we're going to do the same thing for ROM, Micronauts, G.I. Joe. We're going to put together this Hasbro Cinematic Universe, and then he said, I would like to do yours next. And I said, 'Uhhhhhh, Okay, WOW!'

It wasn't pointless. That gif means "'90s Kid approves". '90s Kid is a character on Atop the Fourth Wall who LOVES Rob Liefeld's work. Your calling Liefeld awesome is something he'd agree with, therefore he approves your post as a most righteous one.Burn wrote:Actually an 80's kid. Thank you for your incredibly pointless post.
