    Since there are a lot of Transformers movie projects in the works, I thought it would be fun to rank them in order of personal excitement!

    This would be my excitement ranking:

    1. 2022 film/The Transformers/Beast Alliance

    The idea of a heist film starring Transformers sounds like an ideal premise for this brand. Not to mention I tend to get excited for the closest thing first. I'm totally ready for the buildup to this movie over the next 13 months. Can't wait to catch up on everyone after the events of Bumblebee.

    2. Angel Manuel Soto's Film

    The idea of a smaller director getting to bring his Transformers pitch to the big screen is exciting to me. I think this is a place to do something smaller-scale and potentially more out-of-the-box, and I'm really looking forward to seeing what Soto brings to the table.

    3. The Cybertron Prequel

    This might have been on top a few years back, but I feel like my excitement is a bit tainted by the sheer amount of Cybertron stuff in the past couple years. That being said, I'm still really looking forward to what they do with this. It will be nice to see Cybertron done with a bigger budget than usual.

    4. Optimus Prime Spinoff Film

    Just to be clear, we don't know if this is actually happening. But Paramount has teased it several times, and one of the leakers recently mentioned that it could still happen. So I thought I'd throw it in here for more options. (I feel like it will happen at some point) This would be higher on my list if it were a sure thing, because the idea has a lot of potential.

    5. Beast Wars Film

    Don't get me wrong, I'm not unexcited for this...I'm just not particularly hyped. The concept of animal Transformers has never really been my cup of tea. That being said, I do like the idea of taking inspiration from other incarnations to keep things fresh. I'm sure this will end up being really cool, and a refreshing change of pace.

    I'd say I'm reasonably anticipating them, though I prefer to keep my hype under control and keep my expectations relatively lower so if the movie comes out and turns out to not be very good it's not too much of a disappointment, and on the plus side if it turns out to be better than I expected it'll be much more of a pleasant surprise.

    1. Bumblebee2/beast alliance.

    It sounds like a really fun movie, especially the idea of it being a heist movie with all the characters that we know and love. The first 4chan leak really got me interested, especially with the inclusion of cheetor. Steven caple jr. directed creed2 which was apparently a great film. But the main reason I’m excited for this movie is because it’s the one that’s coming out first.

    2. Josh Cooley’s cybertron prequel.

    We’re getting an animated movie completely set on cybertron, telling the origins of Optimus prime and megatron (which hasn’t been explored in any shows or movies aside from a few flashbacks and pieces dialogue btw) and the movie is being written and directed by a bunch of people who’s work got nominated and even won an Oscar and people were still complaining, jokes aside I’m unbelievably hyped for this movie. But the only reason why this is in 2nd place is because aside from @MacFormer97 ’s posts we haven’t heard anything about it ever since it’s been announced.

    3. Angel manuel Soto’s TF film.

    From what we’ve heard it sounds pretty good. No military, the transformers are going to have personalities, and it’s going to be taking place mostly in Puerto Rico. Also after seeing how the director has been responding to the fans I’m definitely going to support him. But I have to hear more about the plot to truly get hyped.

    4/5. Beast wars/Optimus prime movie.

    Aside from maybe the Optimus prime movie, I’m not even sure if the beast wars movie is even happening. Unless we get an official announcement from deadline, collider, or the Hollywood reporter, I won’t get my hopes up for these movies getting made.

    Um... You're missing the 2 Cyberverse movies coming later this year. That's what I'm most excited for.

    I'm honestly not excited for any of them. Not until I see anything interesting. So far, it all just sounds like it's going to be retreading old ground for the franchise, just with better graphics.

    Somehow, these are what I'm actually most excited for. Cyberverse, despite all it's flaws and a boring start, has at least proven that it can be different and interesting.

    1. soto: he sees to be a pretty good director and very passionate about the series so im eager to see what he does

    2. cybertron prequel, josh cooley has demonstrated themself to be a solid director after debuting with toy story 4, when i first heard about the movie i was annoyed about the idea of it getting another sequel but once i watched it i was genuinely surprised how much i liked it. pretty excited to see their vision for the tf film, i imagine it'll be a reset to the origin of autobots and decepticons for future media

    3.beast alliance: honestly it's hard to tell how this movie will turn out and it almost feels split even between being terrible or great, will have to wait and see

    4. beast wars: i love beast wars but without knowledge of who's working on the film it's hard to say how it'll turn out

    5. i dont really see the point of one, besides from what we know the prequel kind of is one although it apparently also focuses on megatron

    1.Cybertron prequel- Basically everything I've wanted since I was 6 years old lol.

    2.Angel manuel- it seems like this movie has the highest chance of being creative and stylistically unique to the creator, which is usually a positive sign....

    3.2022 movie- i have no idea what it's about so im kinda indifferent.

    4.Beast wars movie- I like the cartoon and all, but i dont see it translating well into live action.

    5.Optimus prime solo- the whole orion pax thing is overplayed and boring imo and if it's going to be set on earth, what's the point in a solo movie?

    I swear to god, we’re probably going to get a kiss players adaptation before we hear literally anything about those movies.

    Wait, what is the Angel Manuel one? I thought that was Beast Alliance.

    Anyway, I’m probably the most excited for “Beast Alliance” assuming that that’s not its actual name. The main thing I’m excited for is that it might just be called “The Transformers” because that would be the perfect way to show everyone that we are really done with the Bay movies. Also I just really think Beast Alliance is a dumb name.

    It's difficult to be excited when I don't know if half of these movies are even happening.

    The heist movie sounds good as long as long as its not about recovering an artifact which could destroy the world.

    I honestly can not see how Beast Wars could ever work in live action. The thought of animals spliting open and confusing audiences with a separate Optimus and Megatron sounds difficult at best.

    A cybertron movie prequel would have been nice before the netflix shows put me off anything set entirely on cybertron.

    My excitement will depend on the art direction for the characters
