Just sell the rights to Marvel. Since your favorite Transformers characters were written by Marvel people anyway.

Yup, just because they "rebooted" the universe doesn't mean the new movies are going to be any better then the old, for example who is going to be the director or script writer? I doubt there is a single big director that gives a darn about the franchise like some of us do so I don't think there will be a Transformers movie that aligns to the fan's vision.
Some people are going to want the movies to be dark and gritty some are going to want it to be light hearted, some people like humor some don't, some want it to be like G1 and retread old ground while some of us want to see the franchise go into a new direction.
There is nothing to be hyped up about right now.
Actually they can only be better. Nothing can be as terrible as the Bay movies were, NOTHING.

I'm sorry, but complaining about uninspired cookie-cutter plots with terrible attempts at humour and simultaneously wanting Marvel to make a Transformers movie is hypocrisy of the highest order.

Eh, I take Marvel humor over racism, sexism and a long masturbation joke anytime.
I take the cookie cutter plots of Marvel over the exact same plot every Transformers movie has anytime.
From what I see, the only "good" thing Transformers film have over a lesser Marvel Movie is that transformers kill each other extremely rated R. Other than that they fail at most of movie aspects.

Course it may kinda suck if they reboot things if the Bee movie does well, but at least if Bee does well, the Bayverse live action films will go out on a high instead of a whimper.
Give it time. And please don't try to reboot with a cinematic universe in mind.

Seeing the transformation in live action for the first time was boss though. I can forgive the bad humor to see Optimus go from semi to bot complete with Peter Cullen's voice. Always gonna love that. Now I just want to see Unicron transform live action, and it better be as epic as the original Big U. Not gunna be happy till I see that, even if it's in a rebooted story, and they better not mess it up.

Shared (Movie) Universes are a money making gimmick and nothing more. It enabled Marvel Studios to hit on a Formula to sell C-List characters to the mass market. For characters not good enough to sell themselves, unlike Godzilla, Batman, X-Men, Spider-Man etc
The only reason other studios want to do it is for the money it makes, not for any sense of genuine merit or enrichment it could bring to a given Movie.
EunuchRon wrote:Hasbro shared universe? So... we'll get some kind of Pony and Little Pet Shop Transformers GIJoe mega action flick? Nightmare Moon and Megatron team up with Cobra to fight the Joes, Autobots, and Ponies while shrunk inside a pet store or somethin? I'm just not seein' how this could really work...
ZeroWolf wrote:In your opinion maybe but not mine, godzilla BTW already existed in a shared universe, as I said toho were very good at that before it became a buzz word. I feel like shared universes help them feel closer to the comic books they are adapting, the name drops etc that's why I said they can be done good or they can be done bad. Are they are fad? With the other studios, definitely but I hope the marvel comics stick with it and tweak it for the better
ZeroWolf wrote:Oh and the cullen thing? They'll keep those roles till they are 6 feet under and then...they'll hire big name voices just like a certain games company did for the fifth installment of its most popular gaming series...
ZeroWolf wrote:I just assumed that with the reboot it would be folded into the hasbroverse and that it wasn't before because it was setting up its own separate thing with bumblebee being the only result of the writing room.
ZeroWolf wrote: I doubt they'll recast prime, besides people won't get confused as they'll tweak primes appearance like they've done in every continuity. I agree that g1 has held sway too long but the best we'll get is a compromise, just remember though that those wanting everything to be more g1 are among the loudest. I want to believe that given time to sort things out, to find the most suitable director, we can find a movie good enough to help people look at it differently then just live action toys smashing each other to pieces.

As a fun aside, Think about how many voice acted films there are, that have been rebooted and kept their voice cast?
ZeroWolf wrote:Wait Jeremy irons is returning for scar? Nice B) he would be perfect for thunderwing if they ever adapted from the comics
