    I would be SHOCKED if all three actually made it out for summer 2016.
    I'm still half expecting Star Trek to get delayed, especially with TF and Joe needing support from Hasbro.

    Summer 2016 was the original target date but those dates are never set in stone. Hell, Marvel just recently pushed back at least 5 or 6 films that had official & announced release dates. Circumstances change in Hollyweird all the time.

    You are massively underestimating and simplifying the work needed to make Transformers CGI. And working under such a tight schedule (Bay's schedule) always leads to CGI mistakes and/or unfinished work... even the best in the business need time to get it right.

    I'm a Bay fan, but lets just look for a new Director. A chance for Bay to do something different and bring fresh blood and something new to the LATF franchise.

    I'm concerned that the studio may get an inferior Bay-clone to direct TF5, such as Jonathon Liebesman. I'd like to see them settle on someone completely different to Bay, not that that will actually happen, especially nowadays when so many blockbuster movies look alike and bucking the formula is not something major Hollywood studios like doing very often.

    Jonathon Liebesman might be an improvement. I think the script for Ninja Turtles was far more developed than AoE.

    Well, I actually enjoyed Battle: Los Angeles, but I think that the only person who can properly do "Bayhem" is Michael Bay.

    Jonathon Liebesman and Ehren Kruger were collaborators on a Ring film too
