    Ahh, those poor folks in Hollywood just don't get enough money. They almost have it as bad as pro althletes. :cry 





    I wish we had a tiny violin smiley.

    Whats about Hasbro? Has anyone thought of how they might feel about this?

    I'm sure they'd want a sequel in production ASAP considering how well the Transformers brand is now selling.

    Wow! Just another shining example of how modern day unions are a complete waste of time and are far removed from the original labor union concept.

    More money for less work FTL! :(

    Not surprised.

    Mainly because Roberto Orci mentioned this was gonna happen a while back.

    So, on that note, who wants to scab?

    Maybe we can get the Mexican equivalents to write the sequel: TFs in Tijuana! Instead of the Allspark, everybody's fighting for a piece of toast depicting the Virgin Arcee!

    Awesome. Now I can move my hopes for a sequel in two years out to a sequel in four years.

    The more time goes by, the more I feel that the first movie just whetted my appetite and now I'm hungry, hungry, HUNGRY for more.

    That hunger may die if I have to wait ten years for it though.

    I first thought this was good news seeing as how this would give writers an opportunity to develope a good script. But then I thought, if they're on strike, will they even bother?

    I welcome the HD-DVD only f sony and their stupid overprice bluray. Its about time HD-DVD gets a huge title exclusive. As far as Hollywood goes this is no surprise to me. Mel Gibson must have ran out of coke money.

    With all the milquetoast drek that's been spewed forth from the gullet of Hollywood, maybe this is a good thing. Strikes are sometimes a good thing.

    /ready and willing to scab write

    Well I guess I waited 16 years for a Star Wars movie series to start back up. I can wait 4 years for a Transformer sequel.
