    "The ending of the movie was re-written after finding the location"

    ...I'm seriously hoping this is beneficial to the movie, and this was done because the original setting for the ending was awkward or out-of-place, and not for the sake of forced CA tourism like AoE's trip to Hong Kong.

    Besides, I already live in CA, I don't need anyone trying to sell me a vacation plan here.

    EDIT: Although, looking at pics, it does seem like a great place to stage a final boss battle. Hopefully the change doesn't cripple the ending.

    So good, he noted, “the ending of the movie was re-written after finding the location.”

    The “Transformer” films allow the improvisation, he said. Not so with a movie like “Inception,” where “you have a completely finished, polished script before you start and honor every word.”


    HAHAHAHA - more of the same bullshit. Goodbye, any hope I had for the film.

    Perfect spot the a TF movie to be filmed. Images match what Hailee Steinfeld posted to Instagram couple days ago.

    Kind of gives a TF1 vibe, similar to the rail yard scenes

    No wonder it looked familiar. Yeah, yeah... the Demolishor battle took place in a place like this.

    Definitely a good place to shoot, but apparently one of the infinite number of hurricanes happening right now is going to hit up there soon. It does remind me of the final level of a game though, so I hope it will line up well with the movie and not be an out of nowhere turn of events.

    Always a sign of a competent plan when you can rewrite the ENDING to your movie based solely on discovering a new location that looks cool.

    Sure hope Travis Knight's career doesn't suffer too much from being involved with this trainwreck of a franchise.

    If the ending was changed because of the location, I hope it wasn't too big a change.

    And that location does look very awesome.

    not really, considering that in many of those cases, there's almost nothing in common with what has happened here.

    Are you guys kidding me.

    The script was changed to reflect the change in location.

    This movie is gonna be a small town anywhere USA feel good story. The only thing that these locations probably even affect is just a matter of scenery and vibe.

    this isn\'t like the Hong Kong thing. If no one said anything we wouldn\'t have noticed.

    They probably just said oh shit this place looks neat and then edited the script to have bee drive there instead of wherever else. 

    The meat of the story won\'t be changed at all

    The article literally said there isn't a finished story they're sticking to.
