I can just imagine the academy award winning dialogue now:

"Robots? Huh?... Giant alien robots are trying to kill us? Huh? ... Robots?"

I totally just read that in his voice... And it was awesome! :lol:

I think it's good news. I don't know how big his role will be, since you get the bimbo as lead character with her redneck boyfriend.

Also wondering who would be the badguy, all the first season G1 big role cons are dead. Wow, all in one movie -_-

Do you think bay will try to say one of those decepticons(ones that wheelie showd sam and simmons the location of) from the second film is galvatron. Or someone else.

I'm ok with this ... He's a pretty good actor, obviously he's had a few not so fantastic pieces of work, but overall I like his work. What annoys me more is that lousy logo! It sucks!

Will Ferrell's his partner, will Ferrell's his partner.... Please, please... (Sarcasm)

Optimistic until learn more to not be optimistic about. Con symbol half would be an example of more to start the disappointment train.

Mark's cool.

And for the poster who said all the big bads were killed in DOTM it's true, but death rarely holds in comics or comic movies, Prime's already had a few resurrections and Megatron another. And there's more Deceptibaddies out there to ruin use.

We do know Weaving's not planning a return.

Great...
Wahlberg can play a character based upon himself,
named:
(Wait For It...)

" Retardimus Prime"

Or

" Special-Tron Maxi-Douche "

Yeah, I went there, So what...
This Next film is gonna suck and won't make a dime...
Not even on Netflix! :BANG_HEAD:

That's it. I've had it. I am sick and tired of the continued hollywood bastardization of the Transformers. It's now impossible for me to get excited for any more TF movies. Disheartening news indeed.

Fri Nov 09, 2012 8:10 am

Works for me. I've enjoyed almost everything Mark has done.

Fri Nov 09, 2012 8:30 am

POW

Fri Nov 09, 2012 9:26 am

Is there any possibility that this could be spike?

Fri Nov 09, 2012 9:34 am

They changed shia le bufty for mark wahlberg- mega improvement.

But I suppose opinions are like assholes, everyone's got 'em. But for those who are having a birch feet over choice of actors, who would you rather have? Vin Diesel, Dwayne Johnstone, Bruce Willis? Sly Stallone? Arnie? Statham? VanDamm?

Wait if they were there you STILL wouldn't be happy.

The only way I see this working with mark is if the movie is on a more serious note. A touch of humor here and there, sure, but Nothing over the top like the previous movies. I think we're due for a more serious, dark, and gritty transformers movie:)

Fri Nov 09, 2012 9:49 am

and the cast just keeps on getting crapper....

why not just add colin farrell and ask him to do any accent that ISNT irish?

ffs michael bay could not direct a decent film if his life depended on it. Crap cast and crap story lines in all the movies with even worse emo band doing the music for it

Just because speilberg throws money at crap till its better doesnt actually make it better

i mean ffs tf3 - hey why dont we have megatron as a death machine truck?....isnt it ment to be robots in disguise??

it was like a bad game of hide and seek - OH LOOK theres megatron 'how did you know?' maybe because you look like a mad max death truck?....

awful awful idea casting mark wahberg to do this crap. The movies are bad enough but hes been in ALOT of terrible movies that were like being in your own bath....only to find a turd in it - The Happening - is just 1 example of an awful movie this guy has done....i mean christ he seemed almost as if he couldnt even be bothered in most of the scenes

Is it the purpose of this fandom to find the ultra negative in everything?

I put the odds at greater than 50% they look for a way to reference that in TF4.

Haha seems like it doesnt it? It's just a lot of the fans seem to not understand a lot of things... its the same reason they got pissed when the news disney was going to buy hasbro, or when hasbro says **** not going after a collectors market, or that transformers are for kids, etc. etc. They feel threatened... I don't know why, it just seems to happen. So, they freak out, because they feel like a big company, who couldn't possibly care less about some niche group, is personally attacking them individually. It's the majority of the fandom. It just doesn't happen JUST here, everywhere I go, its always the vocal minority bitching about something. Hell, I've even done it before.

That being said: I liked the first 3 movies, ROTF being my favorite for every reason: best toys, story, most g1 in story telling, action... everything. It sure as hell beats some supermodel girl just happening to know an extreme hacker who also pirates DDR and can decode a encoded signal the entire government can't using audacity.

I'm sure the new movies will be fine, they will make tons of money, because the few hundred angry transfans mean nothing to hasbro, considering the movies make super bank. So NOTHING you say or do will change what they do... except totally screw up the story in DOTM by just removing Mudflap and Skids completely in post production. The movies make too much money the way they are to change anything.

Fri Nov 09, 2012 10:55 am

best toys? WTF!?

ok hold on deep breath....

your honestly saying these awful movie toy figures which the plastic feels almost...ko...like are better than lines such as

RiD
Classics
Alternators
Masterpieces
3rd party

If anything the toy lines are the worst toy lines unless you like shitloads of re-released bumblebees and primes. Sorry i dont want a shelf just full of crappy cant talk properly bumblebee or same crappy could over and over again prime

sorry but adding mark to the crappy movie line kinda makes sense since pretty much every other movie this guys been in has been a total unside down turd. Him and Shia would probably end up sleeping together and giving one to the military along with bay

Fri Nov 09, 2012 11:02 am

I for one think mark is a great actor. The choice to cast him is as good as casting any top notch actor...but I think I understand the frustration. Transformers should be single episodes not a trilogy. New actors and new bots are introduced with different theme movie, not one big storyline. We get more toys and if the previous movie don't work, we can look forward to a new one. Hell, with different casts from transformers universe and different director at the helm. Kind of like one of those books where there's single self contain story told by different writers.

And it does annoy the hell out of me when people think there are better actors out here to cast but they can't tell us who they want. They just whine and both for the hell of it. Try figuring out who you like first and then bitch. No one is denying you that right. We all want a good transformers movie.

And this is exactly what I mean by over-reacting... calm down. I mean, you are so upset you're not even making sense for a lot of your post. But thanks for proving my point.

And I meant best out of the the movie toys. that was my mistake. It still doesn't warrant you pretending to hyperventilate on a forum.

This subforum was long overdue for a big, fat flamefest.

Fri Nov 09, 2012 11:12 am

And unlike some of you, I like the constant prime repaint. Do people a favor and stop whining at everything. I hate bumblebee. You don't see me bitching tha t there are too many bumblebee. There are lots if bee liners out there. Let them have their moment. Eventually, a bot of your liking will be produced and repaint ex tons of times. But until then, collect or buy what you like and let others spend heir money in piece.

I will hunk mark is a great choice and a good action star for what transformers should be. Enjoy the movie

News Credits: 1 · Fri Nov 09, 2012 11:29 am

I like it. He's a good actor, and he's a good action star. I hope he gets to drop a couple F-bombs, though. He's pretty great at it.

Also, props to the internet jumping on that Boogie Nights clip. :lol:

Where were you when Megatron was a Cybertronian jet and tank for the first two movies? Megatron doesn't give two cents about being in disguise. :roll:

Fri Nov 09, 2012 11:35 am

yes...enjoy another BAD michael bay transformers movie...with yet more bad actors/actress such as Rosie Huntington-Whiteley who isnt even a damn actress! she a model NOT an actress and her awful acting in tf3 was far worse than anything anyone can say about star wars hayden Christensen

sorry i just dont like the movies. The plots are terrible with loads and loads of mistakes and stupid things that dont make sense such as - Yes we are giant robotic life forms, and we destroys suns for energy, but we only destroy suns that have no intelligent life near them and yes we are not war mongers yet we built giant sun destroying cannons...

any idiot knows if you destroy a sun then the whole solar system around that is effected. You destroy the sun then you in essance can be blamed for destroying the solar system that orbits that sun. Also your telling me robots dont see animals as important? or know animals evolve? or was michael bay simply saying at the start of tf2 that hes a scientoligist?
