The '''live-action film series''' is an umbrella term that refers to the series of theatrical feature films directed by [[Michael Bay]] beginning in 2007, including the vast amount of ancillary fiction created for it.
The '''live-action film series''' is an umbrella term that refers to the series of highly-successful theatrical feature films put out by [[Paramount Pictures]] beginning in 2007, along with the vast amount of toys, merchandise, and ancillary fiction created for it.

The second film in the series, titled ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (film)|Revenge of the Fallen]]'', was released on [[June 24]], [[2009]].  A third film, ''[[Dark of the Moon (film)|Dark of the Moon]]'', is scheduled for release on June 29, 2011.<ref name="official">[Official ''Transformers: Dark of the Moon'' website.]</ref>
For many years, there were talks of spinning the ''Transformers'' films off into a shared universe based on multiple Hasbro properties, including the concurrently-released ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' films, though the failure of the 2012 ''Battleship'' film caused these plans to be put on hold. However, in 2023, ''Rise of the Beasts'' ended with the surprise twist of its main human hero being invited to become one of the Joes, laying the groundwork for the two franchises to finally be brought together on screen. Indeed, Hasbro and Paramount have announced plans for a full ''Transformers''/''G.I. Joe'' crossover film, written by [[Derek Connolly]] and originally set for release in 2026, though no details about the film have been reeleased since.<ref>[https://www.slashfilm.com/1560184/transformers-gi-joe-crossover-movie-happening/ Transformers And G.I.

==TRANSFORMERS==
Optimus Prime, heroic leader of the benevolent Autobots, describes in a voice-over the shutdown of the Transformers' home world, Cybertron. It was destroyed by the malevolent Decepticon leader Megatron in his quest to get hold of the All Spark. The Autobots want to find the All Spark so they can use it to rebuild Cybertron and end the war between the Autobots and the Decepticons, while the Decepticons want to use it to obliterate the Autobots and take over the universe. Megatron had managed to locate the All Spark on Earth, but crash-landed in the Arctic Circle and froze in the ice. After stumbling upon his frozen body in 1897, explorer Captain Archibald Witwicky accidentally activated Megatron's navigational system and his eye glasses were imprinted with the coordinates of the All Spark's location, an incident that left him blind and mentally unstable. Sector 7, a secret government organization created by President Herbert Hoover, discovered the All Spark in the Colorado River and built the Hoover Dam around it to mask its energy emissions. The still-frozen Megatron was moved into this facility and was used to advance human technology through reverse engineering.


In the present day, a group of Decepticons composed of Blackout, Scorponok, Frenzy, Barricade, Starscream, Brawl and Bonecrusher, have landed on Earth and assumed the disguise of Earth vehicles. Blackout and Scorponok attack the U.S. SOCCENT forward operations base in Qatar and try to hack into the U.S. Military network to find the location of Megatron and the All Spark. Their mission is thwarted when the base staff cuts the network cable connections. While Blackout destroys the rest of the base, Scorponok pursues a small group of survivors, led by Captain William Lennox and Sergeant Robert Epps, who have photographic evidence of the robots. Scorponok is eventually repelled and hides in the sand after the humans manage to call air support and damage his tail. During this battle, the military discovers the only effective weapons against the Decepticons' armor are high-heat sabot rounds.
The film series is partly responsible for [[China|the Chinese market's]] increasing domination of the US film industry: the first film made a then-whopping $37m there, attracting attention to the market and the local industry. Over the ten years since, the franchise made more and more in China, attracting more and more other companies to the market, and delaying ''The Last Knight'' caused a massive reduction of growth there! <ref>[https://www.forbes.com/sites/robcain/2017/06/11/transformers-gears-up-for-another-1-billion-box-office-bounty/#659ff09e2325 Forbes: "'Transformers' Gears Up For Another $1 Billion Box Office Bounty"]</ref>


After Blackout's failure, Frenzy infiltrates Air Force One to again hack into the military network, planting a computer virus. He finds the map imprinted on Captain Witwicky's glasses. While the Pentagon interferes with Frenzy's plan, he finds that Witwicky's descendant Sam Witwicky intends to sell the glasses on eBay. Frenzy and Barricade begin tracking Sam's location. Meanwhile, Sam unknowingly buys the Autobot scout Bumblebee (also on Earth disguised as a 1976 Camaro[3]) as his first car. After Bumblebee helps Sam woo his crush, Mikaela Banes, he leaves at night to transmit a homing signal to the rest of the Autobots. Sam pursues Bumblebee, thinking someone is stealing his car, but is shocked to find his car is actually a giant robot, which he regards as evil as first. Sam is arrested, and in the police station, tries to explain to the police officer what happened, but the apathetic and impassive officer assumes that he is hallucinating under the influence of drugs. When Bumblebee (in car mode) returns the following day, Sam flees, thinking the car is stalking him. While out, Barricade attacks Sam and ferociously interrogates him about his grandfather's glasses. Bumblebee saves Sam and Mikaela and engages Barricade in battle. During the fight, Mikaela severs Frenzy's head but he disguises himself as her cellphone and hides in her purse. They leave to meet with the rest of the Autobot team—Optimus Prime, Jazz, Ironhide, and Ratchet—who have landed on Earth and taken the forms of Earth vehicles as well. Sam, Mikaela, and the Autobots return to Sam's home and obtain the glasses; however, agents from Sector 7 arrive and take Sam and Mikaela into custody. The Autobots intervene, but Sector 7 captures Bumblebee and sends Sam and Mikaela away.

Sam and Mikaela are taken to Hoover Dam, as are Lennox and Epps, under Defense Secretary John Keller's orders. Frenzy sends an alert to the other Decepticons and sneaks into the technology system, freeing Megatron from his frozen state. Sam convinces the Sector 7 agents to release Bumblebee so that he can deliver the All Spark to Optimus. Frenzy's hacking has shut down government communications, but Keller and two hackers, Maggie and Glen, manage to establish a signal to the Air Force to support the Autobot-human convoy that has gone to nearby Mission City to hide the All Spark. The Decepticons attack; Bonecrusher, Frenzy, Jazz, Brawl, Barricade and Blackout are all killed during the ensuing battle. Sam, who was instructed to put the All Spark into Optimus' chest if Megatron prevailed (thereby destroying it and Optimus), instead rams the All Spark cube into Megatron's chest. The All Spark disintegrates, and its power obliterates Megatron. Optimus takes a fragment of the All Spark from Megatron's corpse, but admits that with its destruction, their home world Cybertron cannot be restored. The President orders the closure of Sector 7 and has the destroyed Megatron and other Decepticons dumped into the Laurentian Abyss. Lennox and Epps are reunited with their families, and Sam and Mikaela form a relationship. Optimus transmits a message to all surviving Autobots in space, telling them that they have a new home on Earth. During the credits, Starscream—the only surviving Decepticon besides Scorponok—escapes into space to tell the true leader of the Decepticons The Fallen of what has happened.

(2014)

(TBA)

The live-action film series is an umbrella term that refers to the series of highly-successful theatrical feature films put out by Paramount Pictures beginning in 2007, along with the vast amount of toys, merchandise, and ancillary fiction created for it. The first five films in the series were directed by Michael Bay, and began with Transformers. The first of the sequels, titled Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, was released on June 24, 2009. The third film, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, was released on June 28, 2011. Though Bay claimed he would not be back for the fourth film, he was successfully lured back to the director's chair and Transformers: Age of Extinction was released on June 27, 2014. A fifth film, Transformers: The Last Knight, was released on June 21, 2017.

The Last Knight proved to be a box office disappointment; despite this, Bumblebee, a spinoff title set in the 1980s, was released in December 21, 2018 and met with better critical and financial reception. What exactly this means is still unclear for the live-action universe; a new trilogy of films is in the works, beginning with 2023's Transformers: Rise of the Beasts,[1] though outside of some vague statements Hasbro has remained mum on whether these new films will continue the story of the previous films or function as a reboot.[2]

In 2015, the studio hired Akiva Goldsman to oversee writing a series of spin-offs with Bay and producers Steven Spielberg and Lorenzo di Bonaventura.[3] Goldsman gathered together writers Robert Kirkman, Zak Penn, Jeff Pinkner, Steven DeKnight, Ken Nolan, Art Marcum and Matt Holloway, Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari, Geneva Robertson-Dworet, Christina Hodson, and Lindsey Beer.[4][5][6][7][8] Of the nine proposed spin-offs, Spielberg saw potential in five of them, including an animated prequel set on Cybertron written by Barrer and Ferrari;[9] this film would eventually release in 2024 as Transformers One, though in the intervening years, the film would shift away from being a direct prequel to the other films and become its own thing.[10] Kirkman departed after one day because of health problems,[11] and on August 2, 2017, after The Last Knight's disappointing performance, Goldsman also left the writer's room. [12]

For many years, there were talks of spinning the Transformers films off into a shared universe based on multiple Hasbro properties, including the concurrently-released G.I. Joe films, though the failure of the 2012 Battleship film caused these plans to be put on hold. However, in 2023, Rise of the Beasts ended with the surprise twist of its main human hero being invited to become one of the Joes, laying the groundwork for the two franchises to finally be brought together on screen. Indeed, Hasbro and Paramount have announced plans for a full Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover film, written by Derek Connolly and originally set for release in 2026, though no details about the film have been reeleased since.[13][14]

The film series is partly responsible for the Chinese market's increasing domination of the US film industry: the first film made a then-whopping $37m there, attracting attention to the market and the local industry. Over the ten years since, the franchise made more and more in China, attracting more and more other companies to the market, and delaying The Last Knight caused a massive reduction of growth there!

The live-action film series is a continuity family, and as such includes all continuities concerning closely related characters and settings. TFWiki has identified four primary timelines for the series:

Micro-continuities also exist in the form of video games, some toy bios, and certain comic story threads that are incompatible with each other. The Transcendent Technomorphs refer to this continuity family as the Tyran universal streams.
