Welcome Mr. Roberto Orci, you may ask him questions

Hey Roberto.

Wikipedia says that you and Alex initially chose not to return for TF2. What changed your mind?

Quote:

Writers Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman originally passed on the sequel because of a busy schedule. The studio began courting other writers in May 2007, but as they were unimpressed with their pitches, they convinced Orci and Kurtzman to return.[6] The studio also signed on Ehren Kruger, as he impressed Bay and Hasbro president Brian Goldner with his knowledge of the Transformers mythology,[10] and because he was friends with Orci and Kurtzman.

Dear Mr. Orci

Is Steven Speilberg still in TF production ?

A little something concerning script lines for the Autobots and Decepticons

During the first film we got just a little hint of thier battle talk, a faint glimmer of the Generation 1 days, where they threatened to 'kick tail pipe', 'rip out optics' and destroy other machine parts, along with insults like almost childish name calling. Can we expect more of that or not?

They agreed to let us bring the great Ehren Kruger aboard to assure that we could collectively actually finish the script in time. Also, we'd had enough time away that we could get excited again about a new idea.

Is the actual movie just as or more awesome than that totally awesome trailer?

Thanks,
Autobot Burnout.

EDIT: sorry, but it just hit me: Will devy have a G1-ish head? Namely blocky with a visor? That would kick so much ass, plus shut a few more GEEWUNer's up.

Have to see it all close to being done before I can be sure.

My question is: If you could make your very own personal Transformer what kinda personality would he have and what would his alt mode be?

Thanks in advance for any possible answers and apologies to the board if it's already been asked, a couple of hundred pages is alot to keep up with!

Nothing better than Optimus Prime.

As an aspiring script-writer I have these Q's:

1) I see that Transformers was, in a way, three plots that rolled together by the end (like a reverse Star Wars style). Will TF2 have a structure where disconnected plots and characters cross near the end, or will it be connected start to finish?

Optional 2) Are exterior night scenes just more interesting?

More connected start to finish.

Always.

I know this question has been asked dozens of times already, but...

Do Skips and Mudflap really act... dumb? They have silly heads and buck teeth, which, yeah, not so great. Do their actions reflect their appearance? And if so, why?
