"We want to start working on a sequel right now, so we'll see."
So this could mean Bay will return to direct Transformers 2. To get all your Transformers related movie news check out Seibertron.com Transformers Movie Section.

One of the writers for Transformers hinted that what happened to Barricade was "robots in disguise"....so theres your hint.
Two theories here........
1. Barricade saved his own ass by hiding and maybe taking a different vehicle mode.
2. Barricade is an autobot spy who had to keep up the appearance for 90% of the movie to convince the decepticons and Frenzy mostly... Maybe Prowl??? Makes sense, Prime said a new discovery lead them to Earth..... and a spy would be a perfect way to find out where the decepticons were headed.

Well they got their CG characters all done except for whoever they are putting into the next one. You never know... they could already have some of them fully 3D modeled already.

I was hoping that they would get some one else to direct this one so we can see who does a better job. I swear if all the Decepticons have no screen time and all get killed within 10 minutes im done with the movies. This time around LISTEN TO US FANS!

That would be the worst possible thing that could be done. The fans themselves cant come to a consensus on what to put in the movie. No fan involvement is the best involvment.

How many different directors should be given a chance then? Should they have a different director for every movie just to make sure who would make the best one? I don't think it's feasible to do something like this, especially since "better" is a subjective term.

I loved the first movie, but I have concerns over sequels, how are they going to top that?
But, I will have faith... unlike this time, where i thought it was going to blow and blow hard, and I was wrong.

Groan...
What NOT to have in 2 (in random order):
- one-dimensional characters (both human and Transformer). The Autobots are NOT heroes from space who go from planet to planet saving people. The Decepticons are NOT evil metal bugs from outer space who want to blow up the Earth.
- shaky-cam (then again, it is a Michael Bay movie), you know, in case the audience WANTS to see fight scenes without having to rely on slow-motion.
- product placement. We get it, hip young people eat at Burger King...
- steretyping. Then again, most Michael Bay flicks DO have chicks who wait at home and cry, or black people acting/speaking like gangstuhs or people in foreign countries relying on the America to save them.
- American patriotism (then again, it is a Michael Bay movie). Cybertronian patriotism, maybe.
- stupid humour. This isn't some teen comedy. Robots peeing and masturbation jokes don't really belong here (though 'Sam's Happy Time' was pretty funny).
What TO have in 2 (in random order):
- character development beyond 'This is [name] and he's our [function].'
- a female lead who can act.
- emotions beyond a chick crying in a tow truck or 'Jazz is dead. Ah, that's too bad.'
- a better score. The music wasn't nearly epic enough. In fact, it was forgettable. I'd love to hear what John Williams could do for the Transformers!
- a better script. Hire Bob Forward. Don't ask who he is. Just hire him and let him write something epic. Larry Ditilio can help, too, if he wants.

enough with unicron. we know he'll probly eventually get in one of the sequels, but hes not needed. its been used so much that its time to move on with something new. if they really want a huge bad guy or sumthing, then make up somebody new!

yeah, but knowing how they made the other TFs look different(Ratchet for example) then he'd probaly look pretty sweet.

it would be nice to see him transform..buuut it would have to be in a human like robot like all the others..but i doubt that will happen. i see it as if he's in the movie, then he'll get killed off easily and pretty quickly.
