The producer had the following to say on his board.
"I just saw a headline on Comics2Film- "Is Transformers in Trouble?" and then linking to my Sunday post. God knows who else did it.
What is happening on Transformers is what happens on films ALL THE TIME. Steven Spielberg, Dreamworks, Hasbro and I are committed to making a GREAT TF film. We'd rather not make an okay one. And so it is taking longer than we hoped to get off the launch pad. We still will launch. It will be GREAT and then we will make sequel after sequel.
There is no doubt that this is true. I just like to share with you guys the blips and the crannies- but the film itself is not in the slightest peril".
"Hmm. So, let's get this straight...
Steven and Michael want the current writers. SI
However, their draft of the script is not "finalised".SI
They've moved on to MI3 with Steven's blessing. NOT WITH BLESSING, BUT THAT IS CORRECT
In the meanwhile, the script remains incomplete.SI
Soooo, is Bay gonna be shown the current version of the script, on the understanding that before final production starts, the writers will finalise it? NO
Will Bay now start working towards production, casting etc on the principle that by the time December, or whenever shooting begins, rolls around, the final script will be perfect? DUNNO"
