    random numbers of "attacks" made up just to make it seem more "secret" are lame.

    as are the caps.

    i doubt that many people in the fandom wouldnt even think they kept that stuff on a server anyway :p

    Who cares about the rabid fans?!?

    He posted that Transformers IS his next film. That means it got the Green Light from the studio and can now go into full production.

    After the last couple of weeks of DM posting that there was still a chance this could all still not happen, it looks as if the last hurdle has been cleared.

    Say what you will about Murphy, but the SOB did it. We're finally getting our movie made. Thanks, Don. :thumb 

    (Now I just hope it doesn't suck.)

    Well, a film can get pulled at any time, pre-production, principal shooting, through Post. Hell, a film can be entirely done... and still never get released. I'm not saying this will happen, but you should understand that's what Don has been talking about.

    I know. I use to work as a Propmaker in Hollywood.

    But, most big budget movies usually are released after they go into full production. And with all of the names tied to the movie so far, I don't see anything really getting in the way once it's reached this point.

    Ya, Don's just being a realist when he says "it may still not happen" but I think thats just to cover his back IF for some stupid reason it actually does get pulled.

    But I'm sure 99% of us will be sitting in a theatre on July 4/07 eagerly anticipating the first moment when some car comes screaming down a road, jumps into the air and transforms into -insert favorite character here-. Or some other version of a similar scene.

    That Is An Intriguing Update And I Am Glad The Film Looks To Be A Go At This Point, But I Still Fear That It Will Turn Into The Most Miserable Piece Of Shit Ever, Thus I Refuse To Get My Hopes Up About It.

    How much do you want to bet there's a scene with Spike (or equivalent human character) throwing stuff out Prime's trailer in a freeway chase?

    :rolleyes:  whether he is or is not internet savy has little impact on his directing skills. MOST people have little to no internet skills, even today and they get by in life perfectly well.

    Somehow it makes perfect sense to me that Michael Bay would type in all caps.
    I'm sure he shouts rather than speaks all the time too.
    And pops inflated paper bags whenever there's a moment of silence...

    If they are shooting in May, I wonder how long before we know the cast.
