that looks very unrealistic looking looks more cartoon and comic book style than live action take picture generation one prime for cartoon movie put in with Megan fox that's what it looks likeRandomhero wrote:SillyMcGilly wrote:Please please PLEASE be Cliffjumper.
After onslaught was announced and people started going nuts saying Bruticus is coming let's not start looking at cars and screaming who we want them to be this time. It just leads to more disappointment than anything.

Remember 90 percent of you fans wanted new director for transformers and bay not involved in any way so if 90 percent of you people don't like this solo movie that bay has no work with on this one who and will you fans blame if you don't like this solo movie that bay have no involvement in what so ever as I have been saying you don't like look of bots don't watch movie new director doesn't always mean movie will be better as also I have been saying for years new director for batman movie look batnippleson Robin costume .,
If you fans think who do not like live action movies now you never will like live action movies with new director that does not have bay involved so give up on cartoon looking bots that you want them to look more cartoon and comic book and carrot it or move on bots will never change to look more cartoon style that trikeboy wants you want cartoon comic book looking bots stick with watching cartoons and reading comics accept change move on.
Did fans want batman wear underwear over his costume when they watched Keaton batman movie some might but they accepted change for what it is and loved movie without batman wearing underwear over his costume can't accept transformers look more realistic what we have now in movies you never will learn accept new look of new bots move on from it you don't control how bots look people who work on movies do look at transformers fan art you see more realistic movie designs fan art than you do in transformers cartoon boring blocky mess live action lego movie that's one way describe g1 looking blocky bots in live action universe

Check out what Lorenzo di Bonaventura had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by the official synopsis and a few images.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura:
How technology has advanced since the first film where the robots now look like they’ve gone from the Atari 2600 to a PlayStation 4
What 3D IMAX brings to the experience.
What was the most challenging part of making the film?
The film ends with [spoiler]. Where did the idea come from?
How much do they know about where the next film will go?
What can he say about the Bumblebee movie?
“The objective of that movie is to develop more time with less robots, and to go back to 1985 and to go back to the original heritage, if you would, of the Transformers, G1.”
[...]
“So it has a very distinct idea in it, and whatever is going to happen with the chemistry is what’s going to happen. But it really is a young female lead [Hailee Steinfeld] opposite of Bumblebee, and I think that Optimus is going to be jealous that Bumblebee has his own movie.”
“There are less Transformers, dramatically less… We hired, purposely, Travis Knight who’s a very distinct filmmaker. You can’t compete with Michael [Bay], you’re going to lose. Also, the audience wants something different all the time, let’s keep them interested. So they’re going to get a very emotional, complex story. A very tight story, in terms of its location, in terms of its storytelling. In fact it reminds me a little bit of The Iron Giant when I did that movie at Warner Brothers. It just reminds me a little bit of that, where that it feels contained, but it doesn’t feel small.”

If The Last Knight spoilers are your bread and butter, head here to our spoiler thread to discuss the movie itself, and keep watching the clip. If you'd rather avoid them, however, we've transcribed di Bonaventura's thoughts on Bumblebee below, once more repeating the Iron Giant parallels, and the 1985 setting and feel for the upcoming movie!Check out what Lorenzo di Bonaventura had to say in the player above and below is exactly what we talked about followed by the official synopsis and a few images.

Should be interesting where this goes but if by some chance bumblebee does transform into volkswagon his size in bot mode would have to be altered little bit bee was normally Cameros which are big medium size cars and volkswagon are half size of cameros bumblebee tranform into volkswagon would be size of arcee or skids and mudflap we would have more bots if bay was still director but fans wanted new director told you so it came back get you with answer you wouldn't like bat nipples on batman costume in batman sequel with director for those sequels, we have new director we get less bots,.
I will hold out judgement until I see trailer like to see decpeticon in this movie instead fighting humans

Shouldnt the lead be Bee himself?
I am glad he's not known. probably means he wont steal Bee's spotlight. Since when do we come to these films for their human stars?

I'm just glad that we're finally getting a human-focused story, it looks like.

Wasnt the last Knight human focused? We had not 1 but 2 chosen ones and they were both humans.

The sad part is it isn't. The toyline is no longer the main source of revenue for the Transformers brand (revenue, not profit since we dont have the numbers for that). The Films doesnt exist for the purpose of selling a toyline, the toys are now just merchandise like toys for any other movie, like a minion fart gun. Some just happen to still transform and keep the tradition, which is great. But a movie or other media wont necesarily mean more toys. Look at the Gi joe films.

Pretty much. Due to this, the movies are ironically the mainstream Transformers media with the most creative freedom -- it's not tied up by needing to advertise toys; they don't answer to Hasbro, Hasbro answers to them. They can do whatever they want as long as there's a fair number of Transformers in there. They don't need to show Optimus Prime's sweet new action feature or his awesome new upgrade... they just need to show Optimus Prime.
