E! Online caught up with Transformers director Michael Bay at Hollywood Film Festival's Hollywood Awards and asked about the sequel:

So, where do you go with it? How do you up the stakes?
It's not about upping it. It's about still keeping the heart.

Any new characters coming in?
Oh, yeah…a lot of fun stuff. I keep telling the writers, remember the heart and the magic, remember the heart and the magic. It's not about being bigger.

DreamWorks is targeting a June 26, 2009 release date for the follow-up.

As vague as they are (and rightly so at this stage), he's making the right noises.

I'm all for keeping the magic and the heart but what is this about 'bigger'?

New Transformers, aircraft carrier and that rumour about Devestator...thats definitely big.

Hm, I'm fairly certain by "heart and magic" Bay actually meant: "remember the explosions and explosions."

Well shit! I thought I was supposed to remember the Titans.

See? He's not the ego driven monster that everyone has him pegged to be. It's a shame.

And I'm glad he said what he said...I think he finally gets it now.
