By the second movie, the paradigm of the franchise was clear. | Thank you, so much Bob!.
I have no idea, how difficult was to write a movie. And How the studio's can be such a pain in the ass!.
it's nice to see that you really care about the fan's perspective, and try to adapt those ideas.
If this in that way, i will sugest: Quintessons for the next one!  Just kidding.
Dude, thanks for your time!!

Some questions for ya (and hopefully they haven't been answered/asked already, 200+ pages is a lot to go through):
1. Out of the 40 or so bots that Bay has said are in the movie, can you give us an idea of how many of them have speaking roles?
2. Is it just ILM and Digital Domain working on the vfx this time? Were they excited or panicked at the idea of doing something like Devastator?
3. Good call on not naming Megatron Galvatron. Any thoughts on how Devastators name is handled in the movie since the whole Brawl/Devastator confusion of the first movie?
4. I've been enjoying the prequel comics (and maybe I haven't gotten to this part yet) but in them Bumblebee seems to be talking normally, yet on the toy backing it mentions how his vocal processors still aren't up to snuff. Is he just going to have limited dialogue?
And let me just throw in my two cents on the fact that I think getting both Welker and Nimoy as voices would be a great idea. Keep up the great work. http://www.mikeogden3dartist.com |

For my questions:
1. If Prowl appears in ''Revenge'', I'd recommend his Transformers Animated voice actor, Jeff Glen Bennett. G1 was before my time, and I loathed the Unicon Trilogy. I think Bennett would give a good performance. What do you think?
2. On the subject of Prowl, I have taken a liking to the sleekness of his Animated motorcycle alternate mode. Would you make him a police car or a motorcycle? A motorcycle might be good for any people who aren't real Transfans like us to distinguish him from Barricade.
3. Many people have noticed that Ratchet has been absent from the many sets during filming, yet he was present in the GMC video featuring movie footage. Will we see more of Ratchet this time around, and is there any chance he will perish in the battle against the Fallen?
Thank you for answering my questions, if you have time of course.

Now I know that Jetfire is supposed to be a geriatric character, but I was wondering if you could give some specific details on his personality? Is Jetfire like a hardened war veteran who still has some fight left in him after all these years, or is he more like a grumpy old goat who hates kids who won't get off his lawn? |

As we know, the Movies have a contract with General Motors allowing them to use GMC vehicles as the characters. Is there any chance that in later movies, the contract could branch out to other manufacturers? That way we would get some more "Exotic" cars (Not that I dislike GMC, they're one of my favourites). I would love to see a Porsche or an Aston Martin kickin some giant robot butt! |

And Transformers need some Ford Autobot vehicles
like Trailbreaker:Ford Ranger
Wheeljack:Ford F-150
Perceptor: *cough* blue Ford Taurus *cough* *cough*
(saleens Don't count)
Do you think you can talk to Bay about Adding another sponsor. |
