I think this 3rd installment should go the route of them trying to plunder the various resources earth has to offer, by creating Energon (which they hinted at already) and cubes to try and store and transport back to Cybertron. The writers hopefully went to Generation 1 series for some of the bots, stories and history – and perhaps even various missions they were on and battles they fought against with the Decepticons. Have platoons of Autobots stationed around the world to help all countries in their fight to protect the human race and the innocent..

They surely need to introduce some of the other Autobots that were part of the Gen 1 series.. Hound (Jeep), Bluestreak (Porsche/Silver), Brawn (conv mini Land Rover?), Cliffjumper (Perhaps a 2010 Mini), Mirage (F1 car) , and Prowl (cop car/Porsche).. I even think Sideswipe's (we need more from him in #3) brother SunStreaker , and make him a Lamborghini please.. please let's try and explore more cars than just Chevy please… You could even introduce the new VOLT like you wanted to do in #2 – as a new character.. name of this TBD., We also need to see Wheeljack !!

I think if they went with introducing a new civilian “genius” human character on wheels – they could get “chip” in there too, and even perhaps have him work on and or revive Jazz (we all know Jazz was always around and Prime's #2 in command).. why they killed him off – I have no idea.. . Guess someone had to die.. but the Decepti's didn't die, they just were put back together.. Also – what ever happened to some of those guys who took a beating, but were never dropped to sea level?

Perhaps have units of these bots (now that it all went public to the human race that we are not alone!!) and the Government has solidified the truth that the Autobots are here to help mankind.. and the Decepticons are here to destroy and plunder..

Need to Keep “B” and Sam together. I mean, he'd be dead without him, so they need to explore his character more.. and he finally needs to talk!! C'mon guys.. he was a chatterbox as a small beetle !

You could really put a great story together that would stay true to the GEN 1 creation of this fantastic genre, making everyone happy and truly putting a movie together that has some direction, story, involvement..

Anyone, thoughts? They are always welcome.. !
Am I going to overboard here?

i can see this comming most definately…right after we see the 2nd or third installment of GI Joe.. this i want to look forward too

if you think transformers won’t be rebooted then you haven’t been paying attention. Transformers and GI Joe will be the cash cows for Hasbro for a long time to come.

P.S. DINOBOTS RULE

P.S. – Micheal Bay help me out… no more Transformers that change into humans.

Actually, scatch that these films aren’t for kids.

No, these are movies for EVERYONE. Not just those who grew up watching the cartoon. If they made this JUST for the fans I bet you both films would not have made as much as they did. Hell, one of the reason they didn’t call the revived Megatron, Galvatron was for the general audience…at least that’s what I heard. Also it was the fanboys who were the ones who were pissed about the new designs of the Transformers(though I find them superior to the original design).

The first film had dialogue in it that wasn’t OK for kids. The films are based ofF of a TOY line and is bound to attract kids, but the films aren’t suitable for kids.

The movie is more geared towards the older individaul then the teen or even pre-teen so some profanity is more then tolerable. I seriously doubt that alone will have any mesurable impact on merchandise sales, especially toy specific merchandise. Its more likley bad design will hurt toy sales then anything the movie has or did.

@EdPrime

While I disagree some with @Tim about the profanity I do unsertand (as a parent) the concern with profanity. My kids are not yet old enough to be taken to anything beyond a G rated Disney animation so I haven’t had to deal with that problem but I can still appreciate the concern as a fellow parent. If you grew up on transformers and passed them on to your kids and then thsi major movie comes out and is great and a sequal comes out and now it has a much darker look with some profane langauge it can be disappointing b/c now you can’t as freely share the experience with your kids.

lol @ Quintessons,

There was talk about an aircraft carrier thing and Bay’s desire to have on transform after the first movie so who knows.

Maybe he’s a giant space ship that lands in the ocean and becomes a carrier.

The G1 movie is absolute garbage and ended the coolness that was once an awesome Transformers franchise. What in the hell were the Quintessons… better yet.. dont answer that we dont even care. If it doesnt Transform it does not belong as a part of this franchise. Thank god Michael Bay came along and resurrected the Transformers. While not perfect (Alice & Cybertronian Robots with no Earth alt modes) Bay has done an excellent job. Sure i am a nerd and a Transformers fanatic, but everything that has been a part of the Transformers lore isnt cool. Alot isnt actually… but where it does shine is in its concept that Transformers hide as machinery and technology we use today. Everything else is a fail. The movie should stick to this simple and proven successful base – and if it does, we will benefit from an extremely awesome movie line and sequels. It does not need to follow any lore… if it pays homage to it… great.. but dont stick to it. other wise we will be watching the same movie the cartoon movie was. (which was not good). let Bay continue to reinvent this franchise as he has and all will be good – minus the transforming human and transformers that didnt have earth modes. As for Unicron… he doesnt make sense as a giant planet. use him as a huge aircraft carrier or something.
