A number of previews have started to appear in various publications - USA Today, Empire - that have confirmed the appearance of Devastator as a construction vehicle-based combiner, with people like Michael Bay and Scott Farrar giving detailed quotes on how the character will be portrayed. Now that the character has been confirmed officially, I was just wondering if you could answer a long-standing fan concern as to the status of the "Devastator" name? All the talk we've heard from the crew so far are pretty unequivocal that the RotF combiner will be named Devastator, which is obviously what we want to hear, but there's no escaping the fact that the name was already used (against your and Hasbro's intent) as the on-screen name of Brawl in the final cut of the first movie.
Is this mistake, then, going to cause problems with the use of the name in the sequel? Is it an issue you took into consideration when including the character in the script, or is it simply going to be ignored? |

Have you been able to see the big action scenes with CGI? (Work In Progress CGI as well)
If so does the personality of the robots come through? (Such as irritated Prime at Sam's house in TF)
Also during the opening scene can you tell us how many Transformers are involved? Autobots, Decepticons, etc. I just was curious about a total number of TF's in the opening scene. Gives us something to speculate about   http://brocklock.deviantart.com/ Check out my Design a Transformer contest entry! http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/design...wreck-gar.html |

Till now we have more budget, more robots and more background on Transformers history, among others "more". This, plus the fact that "if you liked the first one you will like the second one", is telling us that this movie WILL be better in almost every way.
My question is: 1) Is there something worth mentioning that this second movie is lacking or weaker than the first one? (in your opinion at least)
Another one: 2) I'm almost positive about this but, did Michael request more detail and realism than before for all robots?  |

Oh also what advice can you give to an indy film writer?
Oh and one last thing if you don't mind what are your opinons on having zany personalites like warpath's turotis syndrom in the movies. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transf...ebee-show.html

#1888 | | Hustlas Inq Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 12 Location: Boston, MA. | Hey Bob! Hey Bob, Glad you are back! I can't wait for Fringe to come back. So I was wondering if you would say that if there is a Decepticon Combiner of Construction Vehicles, that once combined, would be the Size of a Pyramid???  |

In several different media, the Autobots and Decepticons had bases, i.e. not necessarily mobile headquarters for the respective factions. Examples would be Autobot City, the Ark, and the undersea base from G1, and more recently the abandoned mines and auto plant from Transformers Animated.
Will either side, if not both, have a base of some sort? Starscream needs somewhere to brood and plot after all that isn't the tarmac of an USAF base. And going off what Alex Milne's said/the art from the prequel comics, an Allspark-tampographed F-22 isn't exactly going to blend in. |
