The Most Detailed TF3 Set Report So Far. More Plot Revealed. Spoilers!

Postby Albershide » Tue Dec 07, 2010 3:30 am

Here is one of the best TF3 set reports so far. It's from the Chicago set. The article is long but very interesting and I recommend it to everyone. If the page doesn't open - refresh a couple of times and it will:

Here is a quick summary of the most interesting parts which reveal some parts of the plot.

The first thing is that the TF3 teaser will be online on Wednesday night.

About the base jumping scene:

"I talked to about some of the crazy stuff they did on Wacker Drive in recent weeks, especially the base jumping off the top of the Trump Hotel & Tower, the second-tallest building in Chicago after the Willis Tower (formerly the Sears Tower), where additional base jumping occurred earlier in the shoot. In talking about the base-jumping sequence, Bay explained to me later that, in the story, the base jumping was necessary because the alien ships shoot down any aircraft that comes within range."

About the beginning of the movie:

"Bay explains the general beginning of the film having to do with alien spacecrafts descending on Chicago, messing up the city, and sending the downtown residents fleeing. Later that day, Farrar showed me an animatic of what the spacecraft would look like going through the city and eventually latching onto the side of a building. It gave me a chill."

About the back alley scene:

"Not wanting to spoil much, the sequence is essentially a robot climbing up the side of the parking structure. Tiny explosions go up the side of the building, representing the robot's hands pulling him up the side (Bay yells, "Scratch, scratch" to mark off the timing of the explosions). When the robot is at the top of the building--where the cars are--all hell breaks loose. First, a couple of cars simply roll off the building into the alley next to it. They break through the wall and fall five or six stories. Then, the loudest, biggest explosion happens sending another car right for the sidewalk where we're all standing."

So according to these little bits of info I think that the aerial battles in the movie will have much bigger parts than expected. I believe that we might even get more aerial Autobots than Silverbolt. On the Decepticon side we have Starscream and if the rumors are true Shockwave (the bulky ship we've seen in Detroit) and also some not so relevant flying D-cons.
