here's something strange. Michael Bay was NOT a fan. In fact, he said he hated this sort of thing. I was watching the movie with commentary, and he was talking about being approached to write films about other comic/cartoon franchises, but he rejected them, claiming it wasn't his thing. I think it was the concept art and other stuff that got him into it.

I'd like them to bring Jazz back. They killed off an extremely potential character too early. Maybe at the end of the second film would have been better timing to kill him.
Anyway, just because they bring Jazz back doesn't mean there'll be no room for new ones. With the revenue from cinema tickets and DVDs and other movie related stuff, they say that they'll be able to include a lot more of the Transformers, and actually base the story on them instead of Even Stevens or whatever he's supposed to be.

He has said many times that initially he wasnt a fan at first. Toy movie yadda yadda. However after going to Hasbro and taking Tformers 101 he was hooked in.

I like the "yadda yadda" part. It's really fun to read, and then laugh out all of a sudden like i'm some nut case.

Anyway, I have a feeling Jazz and most of the dead bots will make a dramatic resurrection near the end of TF2. Like it's some kind of residual climax.

Just like all of us he caught the addiction and is now a TF crack head.

He didn't seem to be that enthusiactic about returning for the second one, doing that other stupid movie he is working on.

[If you asked him the names of the transformers, he would probly only remember Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and his favorite name Devastator. He really didn't care for the robots, only his borrowed vehichles.

People seem to forget that he isn't the writer, all he did was think up what would look cool, he was more of a supervisor and special effects director then anything.

Michael Bay "Okay when the Bumblebee comes in we have him have him have a awesome car chase with the saleen police car, but do we really need them to transform into robots and fight?"

What are you talking about? He has said multiple times that he cant wait to work on the sequel. And im sorry but you are a moron if you think thats all directors do. Bottom line is no director= no movie. They are one of the most important parts of the film making process!

I only meant Michael Bay's part in making this movie.

he was ripped in to pieces he should not come back

Its been three years is it since my last post here? Anyway, Its wonderfull news that Jazz will be in the sequel... Hope its true.. and all the Jazz fans are happy. (cept for those non-Jazz fan. )Its my 5 cents on this take. But most of the Jazz fan will agree that, We may get to see hin in his G1 colors don't ya think?

It's never been more than with certain threads here

Rumour has it that Jazz will be resurrected as a Assmaster with Sam as his counterpart. They're gonna use the last fragment of the allspark to fuse Jazz's spark to Sams mom's bike, which will become same exoskeleton so he can form Jazz's ass.

Pretty cool concept I believe.

Funny is that, I'm always right about the "Non-Jazz fan" Well, he's 10,000,000, times better. Than sum guy who calls himself a TF character that don't exist! And thinks he's cool than an actuall TF character hehe... nuff said!

Jazz is dead people need to stop BAWWWWWING about it and get on with life and realize that their were more transformers than Jazz and megatron.They died as in not living there after,His toy sucked anyway.

Jazz's toy? The only thing that sucked about it was that his forearms were basically two pannels...but he was a good, sturdy toy & had just as much articulation as any other average TF these days, as did Megatron as well.

Also, are you implying that they're not going to keep Megatron going? The leader of the decepticons who they have kept for the past 20 years & the mainstay of the villans, & they're just going to throw him away so some grunt, wether it be a popular grunt or not, can take his place? I'm sorry, but I don't see Hasbro allowing that to happen.

Megatron and Jazz died as in not living and Megatron's toys sucked too.Megatron is dead now we get to see how Starscream runs things.Megatron may have ran things for 20 years but that doesn't make it the template for all continuities till the end of the franchise.If that was the case every thing would just be a remake of G1.This is just like when people thought darth maul was going to come back..

point being, from the people i know, (who never watched transformers, and would never dream of being interested), loved the movie. Im guessing it ws as popular with non transformer fans as it was withj transformer fans (if not more so). Meaning they have no idea about megatron, jazz starscream etc, so if there was ever a time to change the leader or the mainstays, now would be the time. (as much as id love to see jazz back hehe )

One can only hope, that he will return.

More Jazz, and a new toy!

We have a better chance of seeing the Dinobots than seeing Jazz come back... Besides, this is what will happen...


Jazz: Hey guys, I'm back!

The other Autobots: Oh, God not YOU agian!

Jazz: Aren't you glad to have me back?

Ratchet: Look, when you die, you should STAY dead...

[Starscream launches a rocket, Jazz blows up]

Prime: Oh, Jazz... We lost a great comrade, but found new ones...

Fixxed

ok, here's my idea.

They create life support armor for Jazz and he comes back. However, he is now larger and needs a new form. And what the heck, let's give him a new name...


ULTRA MAGNUS!!!

[quote="Burn"]And yes, I don't believe a fan could write a decent TF movie. Why? Because fans seem unable to grasp the concept of originality. The majority of kitbashes, fanfics, drawings etc seem to revolve around pre-existing characters.

How many fans would be capable of writing a story that would appeal to the MASSES and be a fresh take on Transformers and not some rehashing of a previous series?

I have a fanfic that isn't some remake of something. When it's done, I'll post it in the fanfic section. Why do I mention it here? Jazz was in it, alive again. So there.

Why can't anyone leave him dead. Movieverse Jazz is not a character worth bringing back, especially when there are 50 million other car based tformers that would be better and look better than a solstice.

proll a fake story leaked by Bay... but i would be happy to see jazz back.

my two cents.
