When does it come out, summer 2010? It has to be at least an entire year away, or we would have at least gotten some teaser posters or a short trailer by now... right?
Maybe it's like you said, and you guys are going to market it like the Pirates of the Caribbean - i.e. very little because the sequel films were so bad that there was no usable material to actually market? Y'know, sort of like how they struggled to find action scenes to put in the trailers for POTC 3 because there was only one action scene in that whole, 3-hour-long, ridiculous mess of a movie?

Any links to the Bay dissing Murphy stuff that's being referenced? That would certainly brighten my day to read that. | |

Movies with endings like Sideways don't get sequels, but movies like Transformers are without a doubt obvious. | I'm not so sure that it would be all that clear for people outside of the fandom. Yea we've been around the block enough times with the Autobots and Decepticons enough times to know that the Decepticons always come back and being dead isn't always gone forever, but I don't know if Joe Public knows that.
For Joe Public it could have looked like okay one film and that's it. Megatron looked like the only one with any sort of shot at beating Prime and he was dead. They never really established the idea of just how many robots were left after millions of years of fighting so for all Joe Public knew the ones we saw in the film were the last of them. Plus it had that happy ending and films with happy endings don't always get a sequal, it's sort of most of the Decepticons are dead and Sam's got the girl so what's left to do.
Throw in that if people know much about Bay then chances are they know he's not known as a sequal sort of director.
Okay that and the way so many films now have to spoon feed things to you I think it's a safe bet that Hollywood thinks there are a lot of thick people that buy movie tickets so we better spell sequal out of them. | |
