Ugh, they just don’t listen do they? Like you say John, they are so far away from being ready right now that it’s ridiculous. I will say that if anyone can get this thing shot by June, it’s Bay. But i doubt very much that he’s thrilled about working under such rushed conditions.

Do they have to make a sequel?…the movie was such bleah…but I was very happy to have paid 1/2 price to go see it…but stil even with extremely low expectations and a 1/2 price ticket, I still found it uninteresting. But each to there own ( Like John said it still made a whomping $700 million)…I guess I’ll go and watch Pearl Harbor again to see what really happend on Dec 7 1941…now that’s great filmmaking!

Last I heard they didn’t even have a writer lined up yet, let alone a screenplay.

If they throw in some new ‘bots (meaning more insanely detailed renders) I’d guess 2010 at the EARLIEST.

Plenty of films have been subpar to piss poor by rushing to make a strict release date.

I agree, start shooting the thing first, then worry about when it’ll get released.

i just hope that if they do try and rush it through they don’t make a bodged sequel. As transformers has already done better than a lot of people thought it would, it would be ashame if they wrecked it all with a naf sequel!!!

Perhaps they’re confident they’ll reach an agreement by then. It’s not like any of the two sides REALLY want to be on strike and loose money.

I’m being a bit optimistic you see.

Hey John, I’m pretty sure the arbitrary release date is June 26th (which is a Friday).
