[...] Slash Film have reported, via Jason X, that TF2 producers were scouting locations with scale models of Optimus Prime, Megatron and Star Scream: My girlfriend works at Eastern State Penitentiary in the Fairmount area of Philadelphia. It was used as a prison from 1829 until 1971, and is now a historical site and museum. Anyway, at the prison today producers for Transformers 2 were on site with scale models of Megatron, Optimus Prime and Star Scream and were scouting filming locations in cell block 1 and the prison kitchen. Just thought Iâ€™d let people know that filming should begin here soon. [...]

totally looking forward to the next one… the first was a GREAT action movie as long as you weren’t hoping it to be a retelling of the generation 1 cartoon story (which i wasn’t)

can’t wait to see what story they come up with next!

orci’s quote was from february. read the quote properly. it was only a personal preference w/o budget concerns as bliss81 phrased his question. furthermore, if people read that thread, orci also stated that he will not reveal the number of transformers as it will cause people to wrongly deduce things from the script like slashfilm.com has already started. THE QUOTE WAS FROM FEBRUARY for crying out loud and it wasn’t until several weeks ago had Orci and the other screenwriters submit their script for approval to the producers and relevant stakeholders. a lot could have changed from then.

I assure you, 100%, that Jason X is a worm who is feeding false information.

There is no prison break scene nor has anyone on the set or involved in the production EVER been to a prison to scout locations at any time.

Thank You

Bay can’t to “personalities”… or love scenes… or really anything human, which is why Transformers, essentially fighting robots kicking ass, is perfect for him. Yeah, you would like to have more defined characters, but then you wouldn’t have the “bayhem” (awesome word, fanboy d) because Bay wouldn’t be there. The less this movie, with Bay at the helm, tries to “emote”; the better.

When is a sequel “necessary”? This sequel has as good a reason to be as any other.

Kapit,

Probably saving that for the third film. Wasn’t this signed for 3 films?

I assume Earth will see a much bigger battle in the sequel and in the third maybe a giant Cybertron war?

I really just want to see an all-out war between the Cybertronians. The budget is bigger, they can throw in more effects; why not just go all-out and do the battle royale everyone is waiting to see?

I’m in a wheel chair,

People said the same thing about the first film, but I liked it. It was a good action movie. I just wanted “more” action.

for those who say ‘well thats all i want, giant robots fighting bla bla’… really? the only thing the movies got going for it is the spectacle of big robots fighting and we’ve seen it now. why do you need more? the movie wont be anything special.

I’m in a wheel chair,

I learned that we needed more robot ass-kicking. Which is why I look forward to the sequel.

Didnt we learn all we needed to know in the first film? Is a sequel really necessary?

As long as I can tell who is fighting then I will be happy, My only problem with the 1st was that there were times when I had no idea who was fighting who.

Just give me tranforming robots warring against each other and I’m good. I also knew Jazz would be back, he was tool cool to kill off for good.

I’d like to see the Robotech rip-off “Skyfire” in this at some point. So he and Starscream can have an awesome dogfight. Starscream transformsing in mid-air and taking out those other Raptors was one of the coolest things I saw in a film in a while.

The first film definitely had some great action scenes, I just wanted more battles, like the freeway chase and the fight between Optimus and Megatron.

i just don’t see how you can out-do transformers…that’s about as much bayhem as any film can handle isn’t it? ‘more big robot action sequences’?!
