Don Murphy, the lead producer for the new Transformers Live action Movie, has once again given us an update on the current status of the movie on his
board. The following has been directly take from his
post.
"Had a great first week on SHOOT 'EM UP. Truly amazing. Our cast is wonderful, a great work ethic, and the director is super prepared and getting good stuff. This could be a special, and suprising film. Susan and I are psyched. We'll know more this week IF there are gonna be some Toronto Stooge visits. It is all about timing. I hope so.
On TF, I hoped to be able to tell you about our start date. I can say it is looking like late May. I can tell you that Tom and I are excited. I can tell you that Michael and Ian are working hard as hell. I can tell you that Robert and Alex are pulling all-nighters. But I can't give you the exact date until the green light comes. It will come. Maybe next week.
What I will point out here for y'all, is that the project is at a crossroads. The smarter of you could tell that things were happening behind the scenes when you read Michael's post on his site. EVERYONE has been informed by me of the ONE consensus in fandom- the original voices for Cullen and Welker. Everyone including Michael gets it. BUT not everyone supports it. If I believe the film should be tied IN GENERAL to the original material there is an equally vocal group within the production who believe that we should be re-starting our own mythology and that what was in the past stays in the past (with the exception of a nod or two). The other side has strong, rational arguments for their point of view. In their point of view, the original characters don't even need to look like you remember them, ie. Prime remains a truck but a completely new truck I don't know which point of view will prevail- that is Michael's call. The conclusion, either way, is coming soon.
What I will say, though, is be patient. We are trying to make a huge worldwide box office success based on Transformers. I hope you'll like it no matter what. Your voice is coming through ( you can tell that from Michael's post too). We're nearing the finish line on the one hand and the start line on the other.
Hang tight Stooges, hang Tight".
When asked if there has been any official contact made with either Peter Cullen (voice of the original Optimus Prime and Ironhide) and Frank Welker (voice of the original Megatron, Soundwave, and a whole host of other characters, Don Murphy responded with the following
"They are both fully aware and contacted"

Don Murphy announced, in his usual Sunday update on
his message board, that a Casting Director and Director of Photography have been hired for the movie. This is what Don had to say:
"A Casting Director and Director of Photography have been hired. I'll let you know who once their deals are done. Suffice it to say, this is a GREAT thing. Even though, for some reason, we don't have the full green light, hiring people makes it clear that the green is a'coming."

Don Murphy's has posted this message in reference to Peter Cullen and Frank Welker returning to thier roles as Optimus Prime and Megatron in the forthcoming Transformers Movie:
I should tell you all that the Cullen/Welker thing is far from a done deal. I spoke to some Dreamworks execs last week long distance and they really think the old voices link our new movie to old things. I disagree. I know you do too. It will be Michael Bay's decision. When I prepare my report to him about this very subject I will let you know. I believe this is the ONLY thing the fanbase is in agreement with. And before reporting this as news, like a lame site like Cinescape might do, be advised- NO DECISION HAS BEEN MADE YET about the voice actors, EITHER WAY.

The Movie Reporter at
www.iesb.com has
video-interviewed Don Murphy, one of the main producers of the up coming Transformers Live Action Movie. This resulted in two video clips that can be viewed
here and
here.
In the clips, Don Murphy talks about the progress of the movie, why he started his
board, the fans and other projects he has been working on.
"The goal became 'Is there something that the fans want to have more than anything?'. And I set up a message board, which is now rabid and huge and crazy. But the whole idea of it was; 'Hey! What do you like?'. Because there is so much that is in the mythology".
"Is there anything the fans really, really want? And the interesting thing was... No! Because for every character there were 20 people that said 'yes', and there were 20 people that said 'Are you crazy? You got to get somebody else!'. The only consensus I have been able to glean, from wading through thousands and hunderds of thousands of posts on this board is that they want Cullen and Welker. So my point of view; They should get Cullen and Welker!"
"If you saw something like that [the fake SideSwipe movieclip that was found on the internet recently]
, that is so highly finished, but yet also looked a little bit 'cartoony'. What I liked about it was that people reacted to it in such a positive way! That it is like 'Okay! Cool! Because we are going to be so much better than that!'"

Don Murphy has once again graced his
board with an update regarding the Transformers movie. The following has been taken from his
post.
Michael and Ian toured Toronto- not sure.
They toured Boston- probably a no.
The feeling was Boston seemed SMALL for what we wanted
They worked on the budget- the lower number is within
reach.
Michael, Roberto and Alex continue to make the third act grow and prosper.
Dreamworks and Paramount continue to merge and mesh and figure out how it all works.
No voice actors yet. Ian gets it. Tom gets it now, at least for Cullen and Welker. The other producer who I seldom mention resists.
We are approaching the gate- while the film COULD, you understand, still not happen, it is looking very very good that it will.
until someone says ACTION any movie can crash
It happened last September on COOL BREEZE
We learned that there was false footage leaked by an enterprising dude or dudette, which only excited the fan base more.
We learned that there was no Secret Blog unless it maybe existed.
We learned that 2006 was just beginning and bodes well I hope for you all...stay with us, won't you?
