I would like to see a prequel set on Cybertron myself. Get rid of all the human BS time filler.

That's how it shoud've been

‘Transformers 4′ To Be Cheaper, Likely To Go Into Space and Don’t Call It A Reboot
Posted on Thursday, June 21st, 2012 by Germain Lussier

While many of us soon begin our summer vacations, Michael Bay is going back to work. Next week, the director will transition from his small film Pain and Gain to full on pre-production mode for Transformers 4. Speaking to the Los Angeles Times about the project, he dropped several new pieces of information.

We already know the film will feature a whole new cast, but Bay explained a bit about how Transformers 4 is not a reboot. He also said it seems natural the film would take place partially in space but it won’t be a full on Cybertron-set story because he has to make the movie for about $30 million less than Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Space is pricey.

Read his quotes and more after the jump.

Bay spoke to the Los Angeles Times about the film while promoting the Transformers ride now at Universal Studios Hollywood. Despite the new cast, he said it’s not a reboot:



So does that mean Optimus Prime and the crew will be leaving Sam behind on Earth and venturing out into space?



Bay said the movie would have to be made for about $30 million less than Dark of the Moon (which Box Office Mojo has budgeted at $195 million so don’t expect it to be small) and that it would, once again, be his last:



Head over to the Los Angeles Times to read the rest of the article where he talks about his love for the ride, franchise and more.

Transformers 4 will be released in June 2014. Do you trust that Bay can make it the best yet? Do you care?

Who the hell are the gonna fight ? I mean the decepticons were such _____ in the 2nd and 3rd movie I hope we get stronger decepticons or somthing. Bring back movie 1 starscream and megatron and i'll be happy.

They should have left it another 2 or 3 years and just rebooted the series instead of using the same robots but new human characters.

I'd like to see someone reboot it that loves the 80s style. I don't mind updating, but to me the movies just don't have that "cool" vibe of transformers.

Sounds good.

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

Dear god that pos Bay on it again
Defo needs rebooting with G1 sensibilities. Just doesn't seem to happen that way, ever. MOTU could make an epic film but guaranteed it'd be bastardised beyond belief. Hollywood just don't get it for whatever reason, I just don't know.

 

[CelticPredator]

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

Needs rebooting with more Bay. Less G1.

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

It doesnt have to be a reboot because i honestly do love Peter Cullen as Prime in the movies, but they have to get out of the human drama and pot comedy because its obviously not Bays strong suit.

Mabey the fact there trimming the budget is a good thing? Less money for unneeded explosions, half hour of filler scenes and a bunch of big name actors. They need to take it into space, put it on a crazy alien planet if not cybertron, they need to go back to the G1 Roots, the new video game has visuals i would love. Bay can give us gold i know it, they just need a good story.

But at least there will actually be a robot not like the lame FF movie where Galactus was a cloud-like substance.

I would love for them to bring Rodimus, Galvatron & Ultra Magnus in the 4th installment.

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

I'm interested to see where they go with part 4. I thought part 3 ended well and on a high note. Let's face it, it made over a billion WW. It was a great action flick, imo.

All new actors too? Bay will probably have his hands full with this one since he's basically starting from scratch with human characters. I just hope Peter Cullen returns as the voice of Optimus. If he doesn't, the main bot just wouldn't be the same.

Galvatron is who Unicron transforms Megatron into, right?

And Rodimus is...Hot Rod after he gains the Matrix of Leadership?

I was never really into Transformers, so I don't know that much.

Hot Rod is a badass though..surprised we never saw him in any of the Bay movies.

Peter Cullen will return. He is currently doing voice-over for TF Prime. I wouldn't mind seeing an all cast / actors of Victoria's Secret models

yup. You should buy the TF animated movie. One of the best animes. Maybe we can even get some Head Masters or Dinobots in the next movie.....one can only dream though.

Because Hot Rod is too badass even for Bay.

Rewatch it. Galactus was inside the cloud-like substance. You see his helmet shadowed when lightning strikes inside the cloud.

 

[CelticPredator]

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

He still was a stupid cloud.

And dont tell people to rewatch it.... Thats just mean.

Re: Transformers 4: The Search for More Money

Yea they showed his helmet and all but they didnt show him. It wouldnt have killed them to show a hand or an eye or somthing. It was ridiculous. Then again he's a giant man wearing purple walking around space eating planets so whateve.
