    Optimus is dead and Rodimus looks like Johnny Depp.

    I wouldn't see it, seeing as how I can't stand tim burton's work, nor johnny depp.

    “can Transformers wear white face makeup?”
    Transformers don’t wear white makeup. Nor should they.

    “id go on but i think ill just try and draw a rough pic of what im trying to describe(it might not look alot like burtons stuff but oh well)”
    I’d like to see your artwork, just to see whether it’d be feasible or not.

    All this talk of Transformers and Johnny Depp reminds me of an old thread back on the official TF Movie boards while the first movie was still in production asking if Depp should be shirtless in BayFormers.

    And you thought the movie forum here got weird at times... :p 

    Should Johnny Depp Be Shirtless in this movie - TRANSFORMERS message board

    Whatever happens with TF4 there has to be some shirtless Depp in it.

    One or two things would happen:

    1. Their will be alot more black and white stuff.

    2. No techno music or rock music what so ever.

    ...Not really a thing for Transformers.

    It would have Johnny Depp as Sam Witwicky.

    It'd be a joke.

    “Instead of deserts we'd have snowy forests, it would always be night with wolves running and the moon glistening in the background, a more atmospheric and spiritual soundtrack, I think that would be interesting.” http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...5-do-decepticon-designs-look-well-gothic.html
    This is probably the most accurate thing to expect.

    But to be honest I would like Danny Elfman to do a TRANFORMERS soundtrack.

    As much as I love the films of Tim Burton I kinda have to agree. I think perhaps it also doesn't help his case that he sticks Johnny Depp (and Helena Bonham Carter nine times out of ten) into everything he directs and uses Danny Elfman a lot. Maybe those things are additionals to the appeal of his movies but I'm not sure how much I'd want them in a Transformers movie. I would really like to see Burton move completely away from those 'comfort blankets' and see what he could do without them to lean on. Maybe actually Transformers could be that time. But then I wonder if I'd want him to use TF as his experimental platform for stretching his skills.

    That is why I did not like his batman films, there was a lack of character development and it was just the other extreme of batmans 3 and 4

    Johnny Depp would make a great Starscream. He'd be complex, sympathethic and downright pathethic and selfish.

    Even if Tim Burton does not direct. Johnny would make a killer Starscream.
