I just got an email from a friend of mine that said there is going to be a new Transformers movie that comes out in 2007. It's not a cartoon either, but based on reality. Here is a sample of the CGI test:

I've been tracking this for a few months now...

Michael Bay (The Rock, Armageddon, Bad Boys, etc) is behind it - so that means alot of gratuituos explosions and borderline believability in the plot.

Michael Clark Duncan and Bernie Mac are confirmed for roles in this film. Also all the old Voice ACtors will be auditioned.

Just saw this on the site...

I'm very skeptical about the movie... I have a feeling it's going to be based off the newer crap that they label "Transformers". If Prime looks similar to that video clip, then awesome. But I have a feeling they're going to try to go all high tech like the new Armada crap. Keep it old school! Nothing past the original was any good...

Nice!

reminds me of all these... pretty cool

Transformers Script Review

so, the little preview from www.transformersmovie.com is not in the movie according to Michael Bays's blog:

In case you guys aren't watching the NCAA tournament, you may have missed two new trailers:

Can't freakin' wait!

Nice!!!!

There are rumors that this could be a 2.5 hour epic.

Also they released some action still shots from the movie.

I was hoping to see Hound in the movie, but instead of using a Jeep use an Xterra.

I agree with the old school comment, the new stuff is crap.

A twenty years gone toy gets its own movie directed by the guy that brought you "Armageddon" and "Pearl Harbor."

Tell me again why this movie won't suck the sweat off of a dead man's balls?

Kick ass special effects thats why. Now go watch Fried Green Tomatoes again you angry old man! :p

Those toys are still on the shelves today... :p

Again, three words:
Armageddon
Pearl Harbor

I win.

The man makes a good point.

Two movies that came out a long time ago, kind of easy to judge those but, could be a little difficult to judge a movie that is 3 months away from coming to the screen. I never saw Armageddon, does Bruce Willis have to be in every movie? Pearl Harbor-the beginning was pretty cool, good effects. I heard it was all mushy love story crap after the attack. Am I saying that both of these movies sucked? Nope, I never saw them nor have I seen Transformers but the trailers look like there's going to be some good CGI.
So I guess I'll have to do this-
The Transformers movie will suck.
The Transformers movie will be great.
Now, back to your regularly scheduled keyboard punching.....

I never watched all of Pearl Harbor, but the actual attack scene was pretty cool.

I loved Armageddon.

Knock Michael Bay all you want, he's no Martin Scorsese... but he delivers when it comes to big budget action.

Pearl Harbor, Armageddon, Bad Boys I and II, The Island, The Rock...

All movies that never won anything remotely close like Best Picture... but all movies that I loved for mind-numbing action and popcorn crowd pleasing fun... exactly what I hope for in Transformers...

Bad Boys 1 & 2 weren't bad, even with Martin Lawrence in them and The Rock was good, even though Nicholas Cage was in it. :p So Wilmac, seven words-
Bad Boys One and Two
The Rock
:rolleyes:

Isn't Steven Spielberg involved as well?

Yeah, but he also made "Hook" and "Always", proving once and for all that even the best directors can turn out a suckfest once in a while.
