Personally, I think it's crap, made up by some fanboys with creative imaginations. But here you go:

Close the blinds and dim the lights, because we have a super secret leak on our hands! Thanks to one of our sources in the field, we’ve nabbed the latest copy of Michael Bay’s TRANSFORMERS 4 script (a hefty, robot filled 120 pages of explosions and awesomeness). I can’t give you any specifics about our source, fearing that he may lose his job, but he works in a “secure document disposal” firm, and it just so happened that a copy of the latest Bayformers script (revised on 11/30/2012) came across his path. After some hours of research, we think this is a legitimate copy (thought we can’t be certain), so we’re really stoked to share it with you… but don’t kill us if we’re wrong.

Before you read any further, I should warn you… the following is pretty spoiler – tastic, so proceed with caution.

Now that the obligatory caveat is out of the way, let’s dive into the meat and potatoes. As the titles of the article so carelessly states, Unicron is the new threat, along with his flunkies.

He’s like Galactus, but with metal wings

The script begins 4 years after DARK OF THE MOON, in the midst of yet another destructive meteor storm. The opening is very much like the other films, with a generic “crisis montage”. All the major news networks are scrambling to cover the event, fearing that another alien attack is on its way.

Cut to a giant metal space ball, hurtling through the atmosphere, landing right beside Stonehenge. It creates a cylindrical portal and launches an unseen entity into another dimension. As you can imagine, this agitates pretty much everyone, and the Autobots assemble to figure out what the hell is going on.

This is Primus… Unicron killer and all around good guy

Eventually we discover that this giant ball is actually a space ship, designed by an ancient Autobot known as Vector Prime. He’s the guardian of Primus, the one being in the universe that can defeat the planet eating Transformer, and main villain, Unicron. So, Optimus and a handful of Autobots have a grand ol’ time hanging out with Vector Prime, trying to locate Primus.

Meanwhile, Unicron’s flunkies, led by Galvatron, attack a super secret government base in Colorado. This place is important for two reasons

1) It houses Decepticon Corpses (including Megatron)

2) It’s the home of a brand new array of Cybertronian-Earth weapons and armor suits. Imagine Iron Man, but sexier and crazier.

Anyway, Galvatron destroys the installation, plugs into the Decepticon bodies in order to download their memories, and in the process he becomes possessed by Megatron. Yeah… that guy’s back in action.

Oh… and when the base is completely destroyed, one human character (Josie/Circuit Breaker) crawls to safety, but in order to survive, she initiates some weird robotic surgery, and transforms herself into a kickass cyborg.

As you’d expect, there are a handful of other human characters tossed into the mix. There’s a Special Ops Sergeant (Beller) who seems perfectly crafted for Mark Wahlberg, a few reckless kids (Beller’s teenage daughter and her race car driving boyfriend) in the style of Shia Labouf and Megan Fox, but sadly no John Turturro cameo.

I don’t want to bore you with the nitty bitty parts of the script, even though there are a fair share of interesting points before it concludes. Here are the bullet points:

Optimus, Vector Prime, and a handful of Autobouts travel to Mount St. Hellen on the day of its eruption in order to retrieve Primus from Space & Time… or at least I think that’s what they’ve done. Galvatron/Megatron attacks them, revealing himself to Optimus, and craziness unfolds
They return to the present in order to defend the portal at Stonehenge against Megatron and his Unicron flunkies, in an attempt to survive long enough to ensure Primus’s return
Josie/Circuit Breaker goes on a wild binge of Transformer murders, unable to distinguish between Autobots and Decepticons because she’s so damn pissed off, having almost been killed.
Eventually Josie joins forces with the Autobots.
As the climatic battle unfolds, with Unicron drawing closer to Earth, a group of Dinobots jump through the portal to assist Optimus. Yeah, I said it… DINOBOTS!
Unicron arrives, transforming the planet into a mechanical sphere reminscent of Cybertron, but he never gets a chance to finish.
Primus finally makes his debut. He defeats Unicron, kicks that baddie’s soul out of his gigantic metal body, and creates a new planet out of the corpse, perfectly fit for the Autobots.
In the midst of Unicron’s defeat, Optimus kills Megatron/Galvatron, and all ends well. Kinda. The closing shot reveals Galvatron’s secluded ship, hovering in space, with two bright red eyes shining from within. DUN DUN DUN!

Overall, the film seems like another Michael Bay affair. Nothing spectacular, but nothing terrible, either. Expect to see robots smashing each others faces into bolts and gaskets, a few doses of annoying teenage drama, and some small bits of wit.

The same script was given to the Seibertron.com news team a couple weeks ago. Unlike these guys, we IDed it as a fake almost immediately. I have a saved copy on my computer at home since the links have ceased to function. Anyone who wants it can PM me and I'll get it to them.

Thanks for addressing this Mkall. Like he said, we and I would assume other TF fansites, were solicited this script a while back. It was given to us under the pretense that the submitter's "friend" worked for a document shredding company and happened upon the discarded script. I would assume other TF fansites just waited until another non-TF entertainment website posted this as news so they could still report it yet maintain a safe distance from it. Our staff looked over it and concluded it was probably fake and not worth posting as news.

I figured it was just made up as well. But I saw it, and thought it might be good fodder. Feel free to delete the thread if you deem it pointless.

No need to delete, especially if it drums up good conversation. Who knows, it might end up being legit :michaelbay:

Heh, it didn't take long to notice it was fake.

Too much Transformers references and too little human actions and involvements. Definitely not Micheal Bay's cup of tea. It should be more humans less robots.

Doubt Bay would let Unicron be a planet. He'll probably butcher Unicron into something smaller.

I'll have you know I LOL'ed at you just then. Anyway, a lot of details are just too convenient. I was actually hoping that in TF4 Megatron comes back because he had been kept alive by humans in secret without Prime knowing and we get a lot of G1 season 3 characters, but with Wahlberg (and maybe some more big names) starring, I think it will be a human-centric story once again.

Besides, there was no mention of Bumblebee anywhere in there. That was the glaring omission that lead it to be a fake in my eyes.

Thanks, I'll be here all week. Tips are appreciated and encouraged. Just for fun a random Mr. T :MR-T:
