Transformers

TRANSFORMERS LIVE-ACTION MOVIE
Hasbro announced on Wednesday that it entered into an agreement with producers Tom DeSanto (X-Men and X2: X-Men United) and Don Murphy (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) for a full-length, live-action Transformers movie.

"Transformers enjoys an amazing fan base worldwide, and we believe that we can create an incredibly fast-paced, exciting movie that will be appealing to anyone who loves action films," Murphy said

"Transformers is one of those rare properties that has been embraced by a generation around the world. Like X-Men, Transformers offers an amazing mythology with all the elements to create a successful ongoing franchise, iconic characters, global themes, and a world that has never been seen before on screen," DeSanto said.

"The property has been successful in every arena it has played in throughout the world - toys, comic books, television - and we now believe it's time to take Transformers to the next level, and into a live action event movie."

"We're thrilled to have entered into an agreement with the very talented and accomplished Don Murphy and Tom DeSanto," said Brian Goldner, president of Hasbro's U.S. toys group. "Transformers is a natural for the big screen, and both Tom and Don have the track record and skill to bring to life a Transformers movie that will be action-packed and flawlessly executed."

Just read this on another forum wot does everyone think????
I cant wait
😄

Whoops
didnt see the other thread
sorry 😮 😮 😮 😮

I really love the transformer saga. But is this movie going to be animated???

He said it would be a live action movie

It would be pretty hard to do a live action film with all those robots.

Don't think they won't try.

more than meets the eye. robots in diguise.

I could die over this. Marvel's Transformers and G.I.Joe were the first 2 comics I ever collected. God--it would be so much EASIER to make a GIJoe movie--it would save millions and millions, and would probably be just as popular. Not that I am complaining, mind you--in fact, I couldn't be happier about the idea.
They're gonna have some trouble with a few things right off the bat, though. Like Optimus' trailer appearing and disappearing when he transforms, the size difference between Megtron proportionately when he transforms into the Walther P-38/ Soundwave into a personal stereo, you know that sort of thing. Oh, man, I am such a dork

i dont like this...i think these this movie is gonna suck and that there only gonna try and bank off the merchandising...its gonna be like the incredible hulk but maybe worse

It can't be done live action unless everything is bluescreen....

we all know transformers and gi joe movies would both suck...there obviously needs to be a Thundercats movie 😄 HO!!!!!!!!!!!!

It'll take a friggen fortune to make. GI Joe is much more feasible and marketable, but these days, they'd probably want to discourage and downplay Cobra's terrorist plots to control the world.

Oh yes, I'm pleased to hear this. I was a big fan of Transformers when I was little, and I still like it today. A live-action movie should be very impressive.

Mind you, I hope that it is closer in style to the 80's series than the more recent series. The original is the best.

badsymbiote: I know what you mean about the trailer etc. I'm sure that the makers of the movie will sort it out.

I hope they make this s cgi masterpiece 😄. When did they announce the coming out of the movie? 2005? 2006?

I think too much cgi ruins a movie. I don't think this would make for a good show now G.I. JOE now theres a movie. Hell why don't they bring back all the old cartoons like bionic six or silver hawks and see what they can do with those.

or that crappy rip off of transformers but with animals lol.
Wait wasnt that just transformers in another universe or sumthing?
Bah Never like the damn show anyway.

Ya that transformers was supposed to take place on earth before optimus woke up in the original. They were from the future after the autobots won but were "accidently sent to the past" before the war and the movie and all that other good stuff

It would really have to begin where the comic and cartoon started. I loved the book. Anybody remember #3--in which our friendly neighborhood spider-man makes a guest appearance in his symbiote cosume? This movie has the potential to be an utter flop before it even hits the rendering table if they don't do it right. But, if I even hear the words "Optimus Primal" or "Rodimus Prime", I'm out the door--

ya if there going to make this live action i think they should stick to the original line up. Nobody from the movie or the revised tv shows.

Exactly. But, how would you feel about the inclusion of dinobots or constructicons? I wouldn't be against seeing those guys. Also, who's your favorite Autobot and Decepticon?
