And thus we see the final ugly face of the franchise leaders.
"Thanks for the money, but we still don't give a damn."
Thankfully, I've never contributed to the Bayformers moneypot, and thus can watch from the sidelines and laugh and laugh (and cry).
The reason why they are saying this, and the reason that they HAVE to do this, is because Disney will offer Hasbro a considerable amount for the Transformers Film Franchise.
If Dreamworks doesn't get another film going ASAP to show Hasbro that they're ready to play, then Hasbro will take the property to Dreamwork's rival studio, Disney, who will never ever let go of it. Just like the Muppets.
So this has nothing to do with "Characters," or "More Stories to tell," and has everything to do with cranking out another rushed series of terrible films made by people who don't care.
Hurray.

The only real question left is what it will take money wise for them to keep Bay and/or Shia on board.

Since Bay and or Shia have expressed that this was their last one, money might be too much of an issue. They might want too much to come back.

Aw, what's wrong Don? Feeling's hurt because some people dared to have complaints about your film?

Dreamworks is making WAY too much money to stop making the movies. Each of the first two resulted in a profit of at least 400%. The REAL question: who will be taking the reigns?

Not gonna happen.
You would end up having to hope the property became useless and non profitable to the point where only some small indy company would grab the rights to it and make a movie based soley on Cybertron with no human element whatsoever and the effects would probably be meh at best.

Agree 100%. You have to have that human element otherwise these movies wouldn't make a fraction of what they do now at the box office. Let's face it - it's only the most hardcore TF fans who want a movie with just Transformers in it. Not only that but the cost of an entire movie with CGI characters in every scene would cost more to make than is realistically possible.

I'm pretty sure the massive amount of revenue this film is generating will help him get over any hurt feelings.

6) Fanboys would mostly likely write a terrible script.I haven't heard anyone on this site come up with a idea that I would like to see on screen.Why?I already seen it.If they pick a new villian does it have to be like it was in 86 movie?We have seen that already.How about a new way or a new villian or take a character from the past that was just a grunt and make him a bad ass for next movie?It really doesnt matter I just wanna see some new ideas I never heard before in it.

So what TF series was without humans again? Eh, BM. Yep, that went down with pure fanlove. BWII? No one has seen it. BW Neo? Same. No humans is a proven formula for succes.
