This real, but if it ever happens is a question, And yes I question this being a good idea I really do

I don't see how they can pull it off...and DON'T say CGI! IMO, CGI makes it look less real than with animatronics or costumes.

Yes CGI, they want to use CGI, theres also a rumor that Human may become the Transformers

I don't see how they can do it. The series shall always rock and that's all the fans need.
I rest my case. :D 8)

They made a live-action Gundam movie with CGI. Why not a Transformer one. And, why does everyone hate CGI?

I'm not aginst CGI, its the movie at the moment I'm afraid of. There are so many incarnations to choose from, the need to get the right humans for the parts, the right voice actors, and yes the right company to do the animation. A lot of People want the show to be based on G1, but the odds of a Armada, TFUniverse, or a universe they craeted movie are just as possible. As its stands no one knows enough but there are so many ways they can screw up this movie, and with out more info, Assume the worst

Interesting...I'm a big ol' Transformers fan and this seems cool. I hope they pull it off right and it's based on the original series, then I'll be happy! :D

what's CGI?

Computer Generate Imagery- The same way they brough Beast Wars, parts of Jarassic Park, and Jar Jar Binks to life

all these shortcuts are making me confused...
thanks :)

don't say the JJB word......

I LIKE JJB!!!! :evil: :D

I'm not supporting him, but he is important to note when refering to the history of CGI

This is off the top of my head, but since GI Joe is so oftne linked to TFs in the comic and once in the Toon, that there may be a slim chance of them being mentioned, maybe even cameoed. Again this is a slim to nonexistane chance but its something ot thing about.

I didn't think about it that way..... :|

That rumor had better not be true. I've already seen my childhood cartoons (Well with the exception of Turtles.) wrecked by weird corporate decisions to totally disregard the source material that made them popular and start from scratch. I want the classic G1 Megatron and Optimus dooking it out dudes! And I'd think they'd use a combination of real vehicles and CGI to make it look more authentic. They'd have to do alot of texture mapping to make the CGI Robots look like they could transform into real vehicles. None of that CGI Power Rangers Zords look from the movie. They looked much too fake. I can tell you already this will be one very, very expensive movie. And they're going to have to get it right to get my and other hardcore Transformers fans to pay good money to make up the cost. Which means ultimately they will need to delve into the comics and cartoon series from the 80's. And the script writers had better be real good because you want to sell this idea to a wide demographic for it to make all of its money back.

*insert evil metallic laugh here*

Sounds really cool to me, and I don't care if they use CGI. I think it might look better with CGI TF's in a real setting (Godizilla/LotR style). After all.. I spend the first three months of this year learning how to model and transform a rudimentary TF in my 3D class. It can be done to look like the real thing, easy!

Cause uh, I guess I have seen one cheesy Power Ranger flick too many, and I fear if they had humans in man-made animatronic outifts stomping about a model of a city.. urgggghhh..... :dead:

I als read on the TF2005 boards that the producers behind the Xmen movies will behind this. Sweet!

SWEET!! Brian Singer!!! WHO-HOOO!!!!!

A Live Action Transformers Movie? I don't know if that sounds like a very good idea. You know what's really stupid? There actually planing a live action Pac Man movie! :roll:

This will most likely be "based" on G1, but expect changes. I would not be suprised at all if Megatron transforms into a tank instead of a gun. Which is fine by me, he should have been a tank in the first place.

It won't be an Armada movie because Armada will be over in 2004, and it won't be Universe because the toys are all recolours and the story is all fanwank. It could, however, be based on the upcomming Transformers: Energon line, but we shall see. My money is on a G1 Redux.

This has been in the rumor mill for a long, long time. Glad to see that it's finally getting off the ground after a few aborted attempts. What with Akira, Evangelion, AstroBoy, Gigantor, and Lupin III all being made into movies too, I think I'll be spending a lot of time in the theater!

Sayonara.

im more looking forward to the garfield movie.....that cat

he's voiced by bill murray too and the movie is produced by the creator of garfield so it should be decent
