(Transformers: Prime spoilers follow) Whether a fourth movie or a reboot sequel idea down the road, would it be a good idea for the writers to have the core of Cybertron be none other than the Chaos Bringer himself? In the Prime thread "Movie Killer" I read someone saying that the universe behind the Movie continuity is richer than the universe behind the Aligned continuity, because of the comic books and pre-movie novels. If memory serves, the AllSpark wasn't embedded in Cybertron's core, so it could co-exist side by side with a darker core, having collected enough metallic and energon matter to surround it and then form the planet. If it's going to be a fourth movie, much of Cybertron has collapsed upon itself. Perhaps this is just enough to expose the core and awaken the Chaos Bringer, so that he can devour all the fragments left, resurrect some dead Cons, and set up the rest of the story. If it's going to be a reboot, then an abandoned planet would also be good and the Fallen can be the herald.
Haha No but seriously, it sounds like a really awesome idea. I just think Bay is done with the series, and not many directors would really appreciate being associated with TF.
Blah blah blah Unicron blah blah blah Dinobots. If Bay signs on to direct a fourth (honestly, I want a new director), how many times does it have to be noted that Unicron will not be in this continuity? Bay or not, it's too farfetched of a concept to be stuck in the live-action continuity. The only way I can see Unicron working in the films, is if he's a skyscraper-sized rock monster like the few of his clones in Prime. Just because he's an all-powerful being doesn't mean he has to be the size of a planet.
/\I actually agree with you here. We just got TF3, and it's long from over as a topic of conversation and collecting. Why the hell do we need so many 'reboot' ideas and such? Speculation can be fun, but after the 100th thread saying the same stuff, it gets old FAST.
What about the Cybertron storyline with the Black Hole? The ending to DOTM would definitely be a major plot point, and I know Autovolt liked Cybertron. I would like to see Vector Prime in the movie series.
