Transformers writer Robert Orci gets interviewed by IESB.net regarding Transformers and the new Star Trek movie. Quote:
Q: You’ve been approached to do a lot of action adventure and now a lot of fanboy stuff, how early on did you guys start looking at the mythos of Transformers and how much of that did really play on the final decision making of how the script was going to come about?
Orci: Well obviously we were fans of the cartoons as kids. The minute we decided we were going to take this gig we got all the...everything that’s ever been done by Hasbro, they sent us everything, all the comics, all the cartoons we went over it all. Learned it and then put it away. And with the second part, how much did it influence? You know every iteration has kind of the basic back story and so, it influenced, I mean it's part of the movie. It’s a distillation and it’s definitely a summary in a way, the first movie, but you can’t forget that stuff. It was in our subconscious.

I'm looking forward to seeing what Abrahms does with the property. 
Being called an 'idiot' by a fool sort of cancels things out I reckon.. | |

I wouldn't mind seeing Simon Furman as some kind of story consultant - but NOT as a writer. I just think that he could have some kind of useful input for a broader scope of storyline. | |

#10 | | In Spite of the System Join Date: Aug 2006 Posts: 141 Location: Austin, TX | I think it's important for the producers of the next installment (please say Spielberg will be involved) to look for writers who are fans of the material yet aren't neccessarily "scifi genre" writers. Let's not worry about the genre and just make it GOOD.
And uh... let's try our best to bring back Bay for another go around with our favorite mayhem-inducing Autobots and Decpti-creeps. Art of Mike Pedro
