The live-action film series is an umbrella term that refers to series of theatrical feature films directed by Michael Bay beginning in 2007, including the vast amount of ancillary fiction created for it.
The second film in the series, titled Revenge of the Fallen, was released on June 24, 2009. A third film is tentatively planned [2] but its production is presumably contingent on the performance of the second film and availability of the principals involved.
Continuities
- See also: Movie timeline, Movie continuity
The live-action film series is a continuity family, and as such includes all continuities concerning closely related characters and settings.
- The mainline continuity consists of the films and in-continuity comics.
- A second continuity was established in Titan Magazine's Transformers Comic issue 9 and continued to issue 25. This continuity follows events in a splinter timeline where Megatron won the battle of Mission City.
- Micro-continuities also exist in the form of video games, some toy bios, and certain comic story threads that are incompatible with each other.
