Transformer the Movie

[TOE]

Wow....um...that makes me feel old...He-Man, G I Joe,Thundercats and Transformers were required viewing everyday after school for me and my freinds...

sadly but true for me as well. WHo would have thought that He-man can still be so popular after how many years now????

On the other note, I heard that a live action movie VOLTRON is also in the works. i just heard, thought maybe some one would care to know. :chew

Voltron: Defender of the Universe Live Action Movie
Posted Wednesday, July 27 2005, by clint

Voltron: Defender of the Universe Live Action Movie
Coming to a Movie Theater Near You in 2007


Producer Mark Gordon ("The Day After Tomorrow") is developing a live action feature film based on the 1980s giant robot kids TV series and toy sensation.

The "Voltron" animated TV series debuted in 1984, about the same time as Hasbro's Transformers toy line, igniting a morphing robot phenomenon. It's interesting to note that this movie seems destined to come out at about the same time as Spielberg's Transformers movie. This is not unexpected given Hollywood's proclivity for releasing movies in pairs.

The story is currently being written, but it will apparently be based on the series about "five maverick explorer-pilots who must travel to the planet Arus to learn how to operate Voltron, a giant mechanical warrior formed by five smaller robots. The gargantuan robot is the last hope against the evil Drule Empire that has subjugated Earth and taken control of the universe."

Mark Costa and Ford Oelman, of New Line Cinema, secured the rights from "Voltron" owner World Events, and eventually brought the project to Gordon, whose credits also include "Saving Private Ryan" and "Speed." Costa and Oelman will be Executive Producers, along with Pharrell Williams, who will score the film and produce the soundtrack.

That clip that Tomandshell provided was shown near the Transformers semi last year @ comicon. Release was a few years out at that time, so maybe a year or so left? I am sure there will be info at comicon. As far as Beast Wars and to a lesser extent Bears Machines, for me, THAT is the definitive Transformers! I watched the original series, and did appreciate the concept, but there was no real story, just disassociated vignettes. From the start, the writers for Beast Wars had a vision, which fortunately, they were allowed to complete. I did not care for Beast Machines as much, largely due to a different studio contracted to do the animation. Mainframe did a stupendous job on Beast Wars, and should have been the ones tapped to finnish the story, but the final two Beast Machines episodes certainly were worth the 5 year wait to complete the story started in Beast wars. I was in tears at the finale (and yes, I am 40 years old...)
I think most of the love for the old show is based on nostalgia. I know many would probably disagree with me about Beast Machines being the definitive Transformers show, but in my opinion, the CGI just fit better. If you watch the old show, the transformations were "clunky" at best. CGI really lent itself to the transformation process so much better, as well as adding a metalized look to the "machines". Pretty important if you ask me for a series based on transforming machines....And when was Megatron ever more menacing than as a DRAGON?!?!?!?!?
Good S#!T!

Best,

you sound like you know enough to help me out. I trying to buy some dvd's to keep me company when i have to start traveling for work and was looking to get some transformers dvd's. i saw the box set from china with all of the G1 episodes and i want to get that but other than that can you fill me in on the order of these shows? there seems to be quite a number of spin-offs. i don't know if they are chronological or if they are all seperate stories. also, i HATE the weird CG shows they had, not sure which ones those were. anyway, any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
