    I like Wahlberg. He's got the build and look of an action star, but his acting somewhat separates him from that typecast.

    The only thing I don't like about it is that Wahlberg's contract could take a chunk out of their overall budget. I was hoping for a smaller, lesser-known cast since I want something with more robot characterization/screen-time.

    I was just saying that they can go with a younger star for the male lead and keep wahlberg in a supporting role.

    Also...

    There's another possibilty everyone seems to be ignoring, that he could simply be voicing a bot, personally I like that idea, he'd be fine for Hot Rod, or any other brash unamed bot, that will exist as a character from the continuity, and toyline, but will be renamed last minute by Bay. Wahlberg will be a backhoe, and his name will be "Diggler."

    If there are any humans in the movie, the movie will suck.

    Please no. Whalberg is the gaming / comic killer.

    I kinda like this idea. Just leave earth and humans out completely. If Wahlberg is in it, let him voice a robot.

    I never understood the hate Mark Wahlberg gets at all. He's great in the movie The Other Guys.

    I am pretty sure in Marky Marks contract for Planet of the Apes he was not to be called Marky Mark.

    Could be he's a fan, he's about the right age.

    And looking back at the Bay movies so far, all the parts with Josh Duhmel, Tyreese and the other military guys are probably the better parts of the movie.

    So maybe he's going to be part of the Military? Perhaps the new leader of Sector 6? (that other guy was a joke gone on too long)

    And I'm going to say, he might not be the BEST actor out there, but he's gone a long way to distance himself from that Funky Bunch persona. Go rent the Departed, if anyone was bad in that flick it was Jack Nickleson.
