thanks for responding to me,i didnt think that would happen.
im new here so it was kinda cool.

i dont know if your taking ideas for lines for starscream anymore but i had a cool one.

starscream says to a human,

"Do not try and decieve us human,we are masters of deception."

i posted it in an old thread for that and didnt realize it was so old.embarrasing i know.

like i said though,im new here.

Thanks a bunch,

I think you meant "Terrorize". I doubt it given Hasbro barely used rarely again after Sept. 11, and they came up with the catchphrase for Beast Wars in the first place.

Did you guys ever plot an escape? Like: “Bay comes at 3:43 on Tuesday after his work out at the gym on his was to the Smoothie Hut. Alex, you lay on the ground in front of the door and act like you broke you’re leg. When he bends over to check on you I’ll smash him over the head with the phone and we’ll make a ruin for it!”

Then Ehren Kruger is like "What do you want me to do?" Then you guys turn to look at him and after a beat say "Just try to say out of the way." all dramatic like.

I know. Poor me. Nothing goes my way.

Hahaha, I wouldn't mind those working conditions. It beats "cube city." Thanks again for all you do here Orci, a lot of us really appreciate it.

Bob,

Have you and Alex ever thought of writing a sequel to the movie Goonies? Or a reimagining. Or even a whole new movie with a similar feel? You guys would seriously kick that scripts ass. I would love to see what you guys could do with that type of theme.

Bob,

Given the success of the first film, and the fact that Optimus Prime's design was one of the best received and recognizable, I pose the following question:

Did the designers of the bots in TF2 have more freedom to make the faces of the characters more closely resemble their earlier incarnations? (example: more humanoid-like faces and more “helmet” type head designs)

Thanks for you participation on this board!

Mr Orci,

When the Autobots are introduced in the first film, I hear Jazz's line as "We're scrappy little ****hes!", in tune with the general "meet the Autobots" vibe....

Everyone else reckons this line is "What's crackin', little ****hes?", but that seems a little random.

I assume I'm wrong here, but I wanted to be sure.

Hi Bob,

Do you think the passing of Don LaFontaine, the master of the movie trailer voice-overs, will hurt the Transformers trailers when they come out?

He hadn't been used for the trailers of the first film, had he been contacted for the new ones?

Hollogram time. He could be Optimus' hologram driver. That would be such a nod, and he wouldn't even have to have any lines!!! C'mon Orci!!!!
