..By the way, I did not pay to see the first two movies and I'm fucking glad I didn't - I just wish I could have that time back - Bay - you twat - you owe me one million dollars compensation for my time.

Michael Bay is in final negotiations to direct a new Transformers film, insiders tell Vulture."Cared"? Sure. "Liked"? Not so much. Fuck. Fuckweevils. Fuck-a-doodle-doo. Fucking fuckstained fuckbaskets. FUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKK.
...
Another insider familiar with the situation cautioned that while Paramount "does not have a closed deal" with Bay, the studio "is not far from closing" on one, either, and that an announcement could come as early as next week. Meanwhile, the details of the next cyborg saga are being kept secret, but we're told that it is definitely not a prequel, and that it will delve deeper into the Transformers canon to mine older characters and lore. "Regular people might not care about bringing out a character like Sentinel Prime," says one of our insiders, referring to the little-known character who played a major part in last summer's Transformers: Dark of the Moon, "But believe me, fans of the series cared."

Every single Transformers movie Bay has had a thing to do with is a complete fucking insult to Transformers. I saw the first two (oh gods how I wish I hadn't)...the third and any proceeding Transformers produce with any connection to Bay can go fucking spit.
Much like the zombie fad, hating Michael Bay has reached critical mass. It's just so tedious and cliche at this point, I'm tempted to stick up for the guy out of irritation at the perpetual, pedantic litanies.
Please God, Nooooooooooo! No more BayFormers!!!!! Do a reboot of the first movie, or take up the original series where it left off!!!
Oh come on, can this douchebag screw our childhood anymore?? I'm afraid he actually can
If it keeps his attention away from fucking up the ninja turtle movie, then unfortunately I have to support this decision.
Hmm... my posts keep getting eaten. Have I been banned for saying I support this travesty of cinema?
Well as long as he's busy fucking the Transformer's fans, he can't fuck up anything I care about.
I'd say I'd reserve judgment until we see it, but for fuck's sake, we've been through THREE of them!!!
TF4: Megatron's ghost (yes, ghost, not even his spark) will make a cameo showing up in a dream The Beef is having, telling him only he can stop Unicron by absorbing the Matrix of Leadership into himself with the power of love. Because now that he's dead Megatron has chaaaanged and doesn't want to see Unicron xenocide Decepticons and Autobots and The Beef. The Beef does so and transforms into an oozing Tetsuo-like mass of beef that Unicron then eats and gets deadly food poisoning from.
"I won't do a 4th transformers movie" and "Shia won't be in it" are both negotiating statements. The first one means "of course I'll do another one but you better load up TWO dump trucks full of money before swinging by the house" and the second means "of course Shia will be in it as long as he's willing to work without a pay raise."
Silly Rob that you assume that Michael Bay is a man of scruples. They drove a truck full of money out to his house. Burned out and turn away work or pocket the cash and churn out something mediocre?
That pic? Let me do it for you, Rob:

Seriously? He thinks fans liked Dark Side of the Moon just because we got to see Sentinel Prime? Because, um, "liked" is saying a lot. We cared. Cared as you danced all over a cherished childhood memory while wearing heels, Mike.
As someone who frequents the largest TF online community, Dark of the Moon is about as popular as any followup to the excreable Revenge of the Fallen could possibly be. Even Rob was like "Still sucks, but it was a marginal improvement." And the Sentinel plot twist was extremely well-received, though it was incompetently leaked to the fanbase months in advance.
I actually wasn't familiar with the idea that SP was considered a negative in DotM. He was almost named Ultra Magnus (with a different head design). If that had happened, then I would expect fanrage.
Well, it was an improvement, but shit with sugar on it's still shit. It just attracts more flies.
Any new transformers movie made by Bay is going to suck... hard.
But, I could see a good movie idea being "Transformers: Rise of the Dinobots" a new spark lands on earth at a construction site at a museum , it explodes and causes the machinery to come to life and fuse with the nearest organic material available, the bones of the dinosaurs in the museum.
The new machines are part organic and part metal and thus the Dinobots are formed (with a slight nod to the Beastwars francise). Huge, extremely powerful, and pretty dumb because their brain is part organic and they are still somewhat child-like. Decepticons, Autobots, and humans all seek to capture or stop the Dinobots as they create chaos and destruction wherever they go like Mecha-Godzilla on a bender.
What sort of audience is left to see this... even little kids started to recognize the movies were shit with the third movie... took a while but I think most everyone with some semblance of taste has turned off of this series.
Am I the only person surprised that his body isn't just a continuous explosion under his shirts? It would explain some things.
Well, that looks like a faux fur coat (I say "faux" because this is Hollywood, and you can't get anywhere without being into animal rights, often to the exclusion of human rights.), some pants (with the underwear showing as if that makes him hip and this is the early 90s), and nothing else, to show off how manly he is (and any guy who shows off how manly he is, is simply saying "strictly top").
BTW, if Kakarotto's sperm count is over 9000, he should see a doctor. It should be at least 8 million.
The part that got me the most was "cyborg saga". There were cyborgs in those movies?? Don't they even know so much as the catch phrase being 'ROBOTS in disguise'? Then again, that last main female lead's lips might have been robotic...
I'm pretty sure she was all robot though right? Just looked like a human. Where as a cyborg has to have some sort of biological parts to them? That's how I see it anyways!
I think, but she had skin that appeared then disappeared and to my knowledge skin will not feel like skin if made out of metal. So a Cyborg or Shia the Beef is stupid, both are likely.
If the title of the new movie is "Transformers: Cyborgs Kinda Hiding" I will shoot myself in the face at the premiere.
Omg, why would you link a page exploding (pun intended) with Bay fans and call it a blog? My day is ruined!!!!! Now I'm going to hate myself even more when I finish the pirated TF3 today and don't nearly have enough rum.
Oh, thank you Mr. Bay for giving us more! May the toy shelves overflow with unrecognizable robots! May the tattoos and stickers on redneck pickups last forever!
u upset bro?
As to the 'fans'. Bay doesn't really care as long as tickets continue to sell.
Oh for fuck sake. Just let him make it, we'll all make fun of it (because it absolutely WILL be terrible) and that will be that. Hopefully it'll generate a metric ass-load of cash for Hasbro and I'll keep getting sweet, sweet Generations toys.
And I want to make one thing clear to the "wait and see the movie before you judge it, man!" crowd and that thing is this- TransFOURmers* (that's my gift to you, lads) WILL be fucking awful and yes we can tell that just from watching the trailer. Kindly shut the fuck up.
*Trans4mers?
Okay, yeah...Cyborgs: Mixture of organic and inorganic elements. Strictly speaking, wearing glasses or braces makes you a cyborg. And obviously this includes anybody with a prosthetic limb. In videogames and the like, cybernetics tend to all be some kind of weapon.Robots: Totally machine.Mecha: A giant machine that may be a robot or a vehicle, or something special. (I won't say what kind of special, as I don't want Bayvangelion any time soon.)
The fact that Michael Bay is a douchebag fucking liar surprises you? Oh Brick, when will you learn? This "man" feeds on the anguish cries of scorned nerds the world over. To stop him from being such a lying b-tard is the same as asking a man to breathe without oxygen.
That is to say, it's not as if I wasn't hoping for Bay to die a painful death. Preferably from a combination of Cancer and AIDS.
And dickrot.
Actually, now that I think about it, this might be a good thing. Everyone seems to have given up hope of ever getting a decent Transformers movie. So, as long as Bay is churning out Transformers, he isn't getting his mitts on and ruining other properties.
HOLY SHIT, YES!More Bayformers FAQs!!! (Rob, please don't die from alcohol poisoning when watching the new trilogy.)
I'll just say that Bay's "delving into Transformers lore" over the last couple of films is rather like how Dr. Walter Freeman delved into his patients' minds. Blindly, with an ice pick through the skull, stirring lazily back and forth with the hope that the next mistake will fix the last five he made; until the body finally stops showing any signs of life and is abandoned to gather dust in a corner.
Also increasingly applied to DC Comics' efforts towards canon over the years. ZING!
Not sure if it's Freeman, who was at least trying to make things work, or more like Kellogg, who invented problems ("excessive masturbation") and fixed them (high-carbohydrate diet, daily enemas, circumcision, burning off the clitoris with phenol).
And I have no doubt future rebooters will say how horrible Michael Bay was and they're nothing like him, just like modern alternative medicine practitioners say how horrible Kellogg was and they're nothing like him.
