Less Robots, More Story?

Filed under: Shia LaBeouf

Last week, Michael Bay confirmed that his next Transformers movie could begin production as soon as May. When pressed for details about the sure to be box-office smash, Michael wouldn't say if Shia LaBeouf would be getting more screen time or if Megan Fox would be getting less (much, much less considering her mouth!), but he did say that viewers can expect less robots to keep straight. Bay explained:

"Although the number of robots increased significantly from the first film for the second, the third film — which will hit theaters in summer 2011, won't be as robot-heavy and there will be fewer explosions."

Don't tell us you are actually going to try and include a story somewhere in-between the giant robots and explosions to fill the gaps?

That's shocking!

      Michael Bay movie without non-stop explosions?
      That's the only reason to watch a Michael Bay Movie.

      Not so sure this is going to be good. The second one was horrible cause Megan Fox's pretty face and horrible acting was shown.

      I was so confused during that second movie. No clue which robot was which. Not sure how many robots there were. Which ones were bad or good ones. It made no sense to me at all therefore I could not enjoy it at all. Megan Fox is a horrible actress but nice to look at.

      Re: duelastar – well said…

      Fucks sake, this Michael Bay clown is RUINING Transformers.

      It's all about the robots, the battles, the explosions.

      Not some cliche love story between two pouting kids.

      Megan Fox would be more of an asset to these movies if she didn't have any lines.

      the 2nd one was horrible
      he should just stop making movies cuz he sucks

      Oh my God, Perez, you *so* need a copy editor! It's "fewer" robots, not "less" robots. And don't get me started on your apostrophe abuse - the possessive its doesn't have an apostrophe. Like I've said before, if you need a copy editor, just drop me a line. I'm good, I'm fast and I'm reliable. Plus I'm up before you (UK time zone) so can send you the hot goss from this end from 07.00 UTC. Think about it!

      Just as long as Shia's parents in the film get a bigger story line!!!!



    14. 14

      that's stupid! the whole point of seeing Transformers is to watch giant robots fight each other and blow shit up!!!



    15. 15

      Thats stupid…the cartoon was always about the robots not the people



    16. 16

      sounds great! the last film nearly gave me a seizure watching it!



    17. 17

      Fewer Robots

      You're an idiot if you think there's no story line. As for "less robots to keep straight" EACH ONE IS DIFFERENT! How the hell can you NOT keep a giant blue robot and a little yellow robot straight? Transformers would be fucking STUPID if they cut out any of the robot scenes. Considering the original television show had ONLY robots and two humans who were rarely seen. Nobody was so stupid that they couldn't keep the robots straight back then. And really, there is PLENTY of story line in Transformers. Just because you're too much of an idiot to see it doesn't mean it isn't there. Can't you ever make a tiny amount of effort to sound the tiniest bit intelligent?

      The only breakout star from this series who will have a longlived career is Shia
