Would you like Joss Whedon to take over?

No. He aint the jesus of movies man. Just because he probably did well for the avengers doesnt mean he will do well on transformers. They are very different properties and joss whedon has his own area of expertise. Anyway he already had five films backing up the possible success of the avengers.

Hell this:

Optimus Prime - Mal
Ironhide/Warpath - Jayne
Arcee - Faith
Ratchet - Wash
Wheeljack - Dr. Walter Bishop, with 50% less senile
BB- Reaver

Fixed that for ya!

I think Whedon could actually do a very good job with the franchise. His strength is in ensemble casts, where no one character shines over the others, and I think that for something like Transformers, it'd be a great touch.

Really? Buffy, Angel, Firefly, Dollhouse, Dr. Horrible?? None of those were enjoyable to you?

I absolutely hated the episodes of Buffy and Angel I watched; don't remember much of the details of which ones I saw, just that they were terrible. After hearing everyone go on about how 'awesome' Firefly was, I tried a few episodes of that and thought it was just as bad. I just really don't care for Whedon's style. Can't comment about Dollhouse or Dr Horrible (whatever that is), since I learned my lesson and stayed away from them.

Ha ha, considering how I'm ready to trade in our current director for anyone with talent at crafting a story I can't see why I'd say no.

I don't know if Transformers is Joss Whedon's brand of geekdom, but I've enjoyed his other work so the odds seem to be in favor of me liking what his take on Transformers might be. His good guys aren't unbeatable and his female characters are just more than eye candy so that's sounding better than what we have now.

I wouldn't mind seeing Edgar Wright give Transformers a bash
