    TCU: Transformers 5



    Paramount have locked this in along with a number other films for 2016. That means it's fast tracked and no doubt set to be very similar to 4

      Not sure it would matter. Given the daft money they make, irrespective of artistic merit, if I was given the directing/producing job for a 5th Transformers film I'd make it almost exactly like the previous four.

      Doing anything else would be like trying to turn an oil tanker, and besides, they still make daft amounts of money.

            Was somewhat looking forward to this until I saw a trailer the other days with the robots all dancing.....pack it in. It was bent
            I'm glad Linking Park have been replace unfortunately they have been replaced with a worse band.

            I wish someone would have the balls to say to Michael Bay, 'Please direct my film, you are awesome at it. But if you think you can have any creative control, do one'.

                I can't remember where it was to be honest, it was on one of the latest TV spots. The blonde girl shouts something like 'Work it bee!' as he's grooving around...utter gash

                  IGN's review says its more of the same. 2hr 45m long though, they say the slight revamp works fine, the new bad guy is good and you can finally tell the TF's apart during fight scenes but the daft humour remains and the Dinobots are barely in it

                    I would do it in a more artful way. I'd explore why Optimus Prime is happy to take on his role as leader of the autobots. He was always a disappointment to his father, who was unable to forgive him for the part he played in the death of his older brother Firstimus Prime. I'd film it in Black & White but with loads of lens flare and it would be silent apart from the noise when they change form (so as not to alienate the fans).

                      I'd start again from scratch. There's no saving the current Transformer movies. A good start would be having some screen time and dialogue between the Transformers so we get to know them as characters - rather than being forced to endure increasingly annoying collections of humans I know nothing and care even less about. The Transformers should be the stars.

                        ^^^This

                        Look at the original cartoons & movie for example we had some interaction with humans but the TF's were the star of the show & rightly so
                        The movies should be the same.
                        They shouldn't be movies about humans that just happen to feature shape changing robots.

                        It should be about shape changing robots it just so happens that there a few humans in it too.

                        I also really shouldn't struggle to tell the difference between them all when it does start going bonkers.

                        I have already said that I won't see 4 & I'm even less likely to see 5.

                        I would really love to see someone who cares about the subject matter tackle this.
                        I still fear for his Turtles movie but I am willing to give that a chance.

                          I totally agree with Neil. I saw the new Transformers movie yesterday and I thought it was terrible. I like the Transformers themselves but the stories and focus on human characters doesn't make are really boring. The fact that they introduce new Autobots and Decepticons every movie doesn't give me any incentive to care about them as characters, not that any of them are focused upon in any case.

                          I hope they fix these major mistakes for the fifth movie. I'll probably see it but I'm not expecting a good movie, unless the idea is to make a terrible movie, that's long and convoluted plus has many logical flaws just to make the second movie to be slightly better to make it a masterpiece in comparison.

                          Bay is not a good director, except for some scenes, and the people who write the scripts for these are terrible.

                            Paramount is eager for Bay to return but he might have finally had enough. It'll all rely on deals now and it'll have to be settled quick

                              Dear god, prepare yourselves.

                              So, despite reviews, this franchise is huge right? Well, as Paramount is one of the few studios without one a big picture serial...

                              The studio is setting up plans to create a multi-part sequel. Now, as this entry is being turned around quickly, the news would presumably be based on plans for Transformers 6 and 7. In addition they are planning multiple spin-offs within the TF universe.

                              Can anyone else sense the coming term Transformers Cinematic Universe coming our way?
