No, but it is nice to see they want Cullen back without question. The fact that they told with to clear his calendar for next year speaks volumes, IMO.

So if they start production in 2008, does that mean we should expect the sequel by 2010?

I would guess sooner then 2010. Two years between movies sounds better.

It has also been reported that Jerry Bruckheimer wants Bay to direct his Prince of Persia movie which is already in pre-production, so I would imagine that we won't see a new TF movie until at least 2010.

I'm going to say this now, because I have a strong feeling about this. IF Transformers does more then 600 million worldwide( Not unbeleivable considering what the other blockbusters have done), Dreamworks and Speilberg will want to start the sequel ASAP. And Since Speilberg seems to be completly sold on Bay as director, expect him to do what Raimi did with Spiderman. I say a Sequel before 2010, maybe summer 2009. This movie is going to be huge, my prediction is 800+ million world wide by the time its all said and done.

i agree with you there, 2010 TOP

come on jetfire baby
get your ass in that movie
are ya with me people

I wouldn't be surprised to see Van Helsing type numbers. Strong opening, lots of hype about a "Trilogy" and then when the next weekend drop off kicks in, (could be as much as 60%) eveyone involved gets quiet, and the sequel puffs off to no where.

Aside from Transfans, this film really isn't high on anyone's list. People will go see it- but expect parents to spend their cash on Ratatiulle which opens right before (June 29th). The ever needed child monies will go to the talking rat film- which looks like a lot more fun (and more engaging). Don't forget Die Hard 4 opens that day as well. So between Pixar and Bruce- people will have spent their cash. That combined with the three day slot they've opened before the weekend actually hits will allow critics to circle like carrion birds.

Then it's fast followed by Harry Potter 5. No one's going to see TINO that weekend.

I predict around 120 million for the opening, followed by 30/40 million the next weekend (if that). And then a quick death.
