We have what could be a major spoiler regarding the upcoming 4th Transformers live action film. Evac167, a TFW2005 user, has obtained a spy photo of a prop from one of the filming locations that could indicate the return of a character from the previous films. If you're still interested and don't mind what could be a pretty big spoiler scroll on down............

Those who are keeping us with all the spoilerific news will recall yesterday's trademark news mentioned the application for "Megatron Returns", well check this out:

Well, he was dead and came back before so why not again and again and again?

Michael Bay sure has a turn on for reviving the dead, that's for sure.

Because it's worked once, so why not again? It's not like the action-and-boobs addicted people who will make up most of the non-TF fan audience will care.

Sure, it might be a bit fun, but I can't believe that anyone who is a TF fan and cares about the story will be able to appreciate another Megatron return instead of something original and interesting.

I'll bet we'll even get a Force Ghost of The Fallen that will guide Megatron, and Optimus will die of shame because his paint job gets scratched up, and Sam and his next busty girlfriend will need to go and find a wierd faux-Lovecraftian-looking Cybertronian Mcguffin along with some foul-mouthed Autobots, and then use the Mcguffin to give Optimus a new paint job and resurrect him so that Hasbro can sell more Optimus Prime toys. Then Optimus will rip Megatron's face off and throw it INTO THE SUN, but SPACE ROBOT MAGIC will let the head survive until the next film so that he can be resurrected again, just like how the depths of the ocean was supposed to crush Megatron's body to uselessness in the first film's ending.

*End idiotic, hate-laced anti-movie rant*

Alright, that was full of assumption and the film probably won't be that bad, but boy was baseless ranting fun.

Indeed, that was pretty darn funny : )

Perhaps its wreckage recoveredby Kelsey grammer's organization. Perhaps the organizationis studying it? Idk just a theory

hopefully he becomes galvatron. there's just no way a transformer could come back from having their brain module sheared in half by an energon axe and subsequently decapitated with extreme prejudice. cuz if they could bring megatron back from this state using tech, jazz's injuries would seem like a skinned knee. and he's super dead.

So could Jetfire come back? He ripped his spark out but could it not simply be put back in a new/repaired body? Arghh, inconsistencies!!!!

Totally needs Mark Hamill to voice him this time. Or Troy Baker, if Mark couldn't do it anymore.

Lol. Love the Joker reference!

...looks diffrent than hes head on dotm... has an emo stare thing going

Michael Bay's new theme song:

"You see I'm wise enough to know when a plot needs thinning, and I've got just the one
Something that's been done and over done

G1 Movie
Megatron's head in a box

Marvel Comics
Megatron's head in a box

IDW
Megatron's head in box

Dark of the Moon
Megatron's head in box

Every single movie, Megatron's head in box, yeah yeah yeah yeeeaaaaah

Hopefully it's human villain could study it but have him back from dead not good idea I know he had axe in his but didn't it get cut off I can't watch it my bluray play doesn't play 3d crap movies

Okay, so this was funnier in my head. Fail on my part.

It's not like this doesn't happen in all of the other transformers mediums. I for one hope he gets reformatted into Galveston.

The appearance of a severed head =/= guaranteed resurrection.

If Galvatron comes into play then Unicron should as well. But Bay hasn't been very faithfulto the G1 history. Ie. The Ark being sentinel's ship and not optimus's.

And I know that looks wrong and I definitely know the Ark was Optimus's ship.

Why should it be faithful to G1 history? The movies are not G1, and no TF cartoons from 2002 to today have been "faithful to G1 history" either. Why should the movies be when none of the cartoons have been?

jeprime1983 wrote:And I know that looks wrong and I definitely know the Ark was Optimus's ship.

There were two Arks in the movie fiction.

Optimus's:


And Sentinel's:

I am well aware that the movies aren't faithful to G1. Which is why many people do not care for Bay's approach to the franchise. And I believei stated that in my post. But u are correct. Why try to jump on the G1 train now right?

jeprime1983 wrote:Which is why many people do not care for Bay's approach to the franchise.

Yet, lots of other non-Movie fiction don't abide by G1 either, and several of those fictions are still liked.

Why does everything have to be a rehash of g1?

Headmaster Megatron?

Well I apologize if I offended anyone with my opinion. But I still have the right to speak my opinion however foolish some of u may think it to be. Now with that said I agree withwhat you are saying. Many fictions are well liked that aren't G1. I was just stating Baynever held true to G1. No more no less.

You gotta be F-ing kidding me!!!

Megatron can't return, he's dead!! his head was aliced in two and ripped off his G-damn body!!!


Jazz only got ripped in two and he never came back from it! Megs got his chest melted by the all spark, then his head sliced in two and ripped from his body...

so if they bring back Megatron, they might as well bring back Que, Soundwave, the fallen, sideways and demolishor for consistencies' sake!

I am the only one who thinks DOTM should have been the LAST! movie ???

I am very skeptical with this 4th entry and quite frankly, I don't set my expectations to high

after all, its michael bay we're talking about...
