Michael Bay Talks Transformers 2

In the long run this is probably for the best.

As Awesome and Beloved as they are, I just could never see them translate properly into this type of media. It would just be hoaky.

Seeing as there are about 2 Billion other Bots and Cons that can be introduced, this is no loss.

This is probably just Bay using that misinformation. Cause you know he said he'd leak false info about the movie and blah blah blah.

just kidding

I wonder what he means by "different species"?

he didnt say no dinobots

No where in that video does Michael Bay say there won't be Dinobots. He simply says there's going to be a lot of new things (species!!!) that he can't tell us about. Dinobots are still a real possibility! And I don't agree that they couldn't work in the movieverse. If theme park attractions, animatronic Dinos, are brought to life by a leftover piece of the Allspark, that would be a great way to explain the existence of Dinobots.

He said there would be a lot of neat stuff, he didn’t give a yes or no answer if they would or wouldn’t be in it though. Now what would a lot of different species mean? Beast wars characters maybe?

dino's didnt make sence in the first one but now that their covers blown i dont see why they cant use em now. after all its well within grimlock and co's personality to go for the most brutal alt modes they could get and if theyre still following the whole "no mass shifting" thing then the dinos would simply be too big to be vehicles (except swoop i suppose)

disguise is pretty much the autobots stick for infitration and intelligence gathering but the dinos are a much more overt heavy assault type of group.

sides ya cant tell me it wouldnt look cool to have comic grimlock and co go up againts the constructicons.

I have to agree with you here, if Michael Bay, Steven Spielberg, and the writers want to maintain the realistic aspect that was present in the first movie, then they will stay away from the Dinobots, combiners/gestalts, and Unicron, or anything that might stretch the credibility of the plot.
