SMH. Don't doubt the power of the Allspark Sam. I HOPE TO GOD that this movie will transform Sam into what his true destiny must only be, and that's the new form of the Allspark. Get it, it's the only viable option possible. Now that said, WHY THE FUCK did they make Bumblebee a Camero in the movies, and not a Mustang like in the show. Anybody? Help me out here.

They'd have to cast every one of our BDH before I would even consider going to see it. I thought the first was fairly bad - the second made it look like a freakin masterpiece.

I too, am generally a Bay fan, but I hate his Transformer movies.

Uh, when was Bumblebee ever a Mustang?

The original Bumblebee was a VW Bug....

If nothing else, think of this as a high-profile project with Alan Tudyk's name attached. The more people who see Alan Tudyk, the more people who'll get curious, check his other work, and find Firefly. . .

Bee's never been a Mustang. His usual G1 form was a Volkswagon Beetle, but he can't wear that anymore since Volkswagon refuses to be associated with "war toys" (it's a German thing). Same reason Jazz can't be a Porsche anymore.

Because Chevy paid and Ford did not. However, the original Bumblebee was a VW Beetle. Because of connotations associated with WWII, VW refused to allow their vehicles to be used as weapons of destruction for the CGI shows and the movies.

They don't anymore. 2010 is the last year for that piece of go-se New Beetle. And for what it's worth, the Beetle was designed by Ferdinand Porsche, not Hitler. He just rode in the back of one.

Uh, maybe you've noticed they've redesigned it - oh, about 15 years ago. Don't think Hitler had much to do with that one....

Unless it was Zombie Hitler, oooooh.....

Bumping because we have new information:

reveals-his_03.html


Sadly, no Tudyk-voiced Transformer, but this does mean we'll get to see his face --and he'll be playing alongside a comic relief character, so the stage is set for some wacky fun.

(link added by me)

Quote:

When I asked Tudyk about the character he plays in Michael Bay’s ultra secret film, Transformers 3, the actor confidently replied, “John Turturro’s character, who has been in the other two movies, Agent Simmons [ http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Seymour_Simmons]. I’m a fellow agent of his that is sort of his assistant and weapons expert, computer hacker, cyber sleuth.”


(This is kinda a minor spoiler, I guess, since the last time we saw Simmons, he wasn't actually an agent anymore. I guess helping to take out Devastator earned his way into NEST.)
