    Recent update right from the horses mouth on his Shoot For The Edit website...

    "I am currently not talking to Paramount on T4 and T5 despite reports. I'm looking at a lot of possibilities coming my way right now weighing options. Most likely going to be doing the low budget Pain and Gain, a true story crime thriller. It's a very quick shoot and quite funny. Also just finishing the 3 disc set of the Transformer trilogy.

    Michael"

    that's ok, we don't need bay to have transformers 4.

    and i'm fine with him being done with it. after 3 movies, i'd like to see what some one else can do with the franchise.

    Prepare for the influx of stupid threads and polls as to whether or not he's telling the truth.

    No one's saying there won't be more TF movies (I'm hoping for a reboot, myself).

    Bay just won't be a part of any of them, according to the man himself. I imagine he probably feels it's time to move on...

    Hahaha.

    He's probably lying, because the man's an ass, but it would be cool if he wasn't involved in TF4.

    This is just typical PR stuff. He wants us to focus on the trilogy collection and not wait for an all 5 movie collection. Let the man chill for now, don't bug him about it and harass him. Besides, even if he doesn't come back there's still spielberg and krueger which hopefully means no reboot. Again, JUST SAY NO TO REBOOTS. So long as there are still stories that need to be told, a reboot would just be counter-productive.

    On the serious: Thank the FSM for there being no current truth to Jason Statham. As much as I have a bro-crush on him, I think the Transformers should be focused on Transformers, not people, no matter how awesome those people are.

    And BRING ON THE FREAKIN' RE-BOOT. Let the Bayformers go away, what Bay did to Devestator and the Wreckers was unforgivable.

    This news just makes me happy as sh**,now it will take a while for Paramount to find someone new to produce TF4 and 5. I just hope it takes a year or two to find someone so we can have a break from the movies.And even tho the movies are good I was getting tired of Hasbro neglecting other lines like Classics and Kre-O,but again I hope now they put more time into these lines now that Bay is out.

    Just as long as the movie(s) are good, I don't care who makes them.
