Talk:Transformers: Dark of the Moon (film)

Release date

This page claims a release date of 1 July 2011, yet one of the sources given ([1]) gives a release date of 4 July 2012. Which is correct? Khajidha 12:25, 6 October 2009 (EDT)

That Tformers source is from months ago, before the release date was moved up. --67.149.197.71 12:59, 6 October 2009 (EDT)

Thanks. 199.90.28.195 15:21, 6 October 2009 (EDT)

Image

Wikipedia has a picture of a Transformers 3 titlecard. Should it be put here too? And Megan Fox should be added to the cast list. --24.69.64.254 22:48, 3 December 2009 (EST)

michaelbay.com does confirm Megan Fox, so she could be included with the reference, but I don't know where that image came from. - Starfield 22:56, 3 December 2009 (EST)

Said titlecard would be from Hasbro's Investor Day presentation back on November 5. --Lonegamer78 23:44, 3 December 2009 (EST)

Well, then somebody put those things here already --24.69.64.254 20:01, 7 December 2009 (EST)

I'm waiting...--142.32.208.231 15:06, 14 January 2010 (EST)

James Avery as Silverbot?

New Actor Info

...is that seriously for real and not an early April Fool's prank on someone's part? Because... WTF? Who ever heard of Frances McDormand and John Malkovich doing anything in a Transformers movie? XD --Jeysie 10:54, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

Hey now. Mrs. McDormand was in Aeon Flux, so it's not like she's above Hollywood fluff. And John Malkovich is in Jonah Hex and did things like Johnny English in the past. The Transformers film franchise attracted Hugo Weaving, Jon Voight and Robert Foxworth before them, so I don't see why other notable actors being cast would be such a shock. --Detour 12:14, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

Weaving and Foxworth, at least, are both actors who've done mainstream scifi franchise stuff before, so I wasn't surprised by them at all, actually. But I always thought of McDormand and Malkovich as being more artsy movie types. (Maybe I'm just still skeptical that TF3's script is going to be less horrible than TF2's.) --Jeysie 12:30, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

Yes, well, as I pointed out, it's not all they do. McDormand was in Aeon Flux. Malkovich is in a comic book film and was in a Rowan Atkinson comedy once, just to name a few. --Detour 12:37, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

*Michael Bay signs biiiiiiiig paycheck* That's why :p --FFN 13:31, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

John Malkovich should totally play Dr. Arkeville. --ItsWalky 13:41, 22 March 2010 (EDT)

Possible Titles?

Has anyone else heard these rumours about the possible titles: Rise of The Primes/Unicron/Galvatron. It is unlikely to be true, but should it be put in the notes, maybe? Titanus Prime 14:27, 30 March 2010 (EDT)

We do not talk about crackpot rumours on this wiki. --FFN 14:32, 30 March 2010 (EDT)

As soon as we get an official title, perhaps some of the rumored titles could be noted. Some, not all of them (maybe one or two likely titles and one off-the-wall one). - Zadok Rox 22:54, 30 March 2010 (EDT)

Twins, Ironhide and Ratchet on TF3

These are not official sources. A Humvee does not mean Ratchet WILL get a new paintjob, and a flying car does not indicate the Twins being in the film. --Detour 00:43, 11 May 2010 (EDT)

Well one guy sayed that skids Would Apepar and throw a car (samrt car) it he sayed that before the video apepared and the video Looks like what he syaed but like you sayed they not offical source, still --Eagc7 01:15, 11 May 2010 (EDT)

Bay Confirms tiwns are nto in tf3, but still the chevy spark/beat were spotted on set http://www.leftlanenews.com/chevrolet-spark-transformers-3.html--Eagc7

That's still not an official source. If you can find a link where Bay or someone involved with the production says they're in, then that would do. --abates 16:35, 11 May 2010 (EDT)

http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/transformers-movie-just-movie-31/new-transformers-3-on-set-pictures---including-a-clear-view-of-ratchets-new-look-169900/ Isn't this enough to prove that Ratchet and Ironhide will return? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by CAJH (talk • contribs). 04:29, 8 June 2010 (EDT)

Not really. For example, the "Ratchet" could just be a fire department truck assigned as part of a NEST unit. Or it could have been painted up after the second movie in expectation of him being used in the third, but before a decision was made not to use him. The bottom line is that those aren't officially released photos. This isn't an "OMG look what I know that you don't site" trying to beat everyone to the punch by making half-baked predictions, it is an archive of what has been officially shown. --Khajidha 08:10, 8 June 2010 (EDT)

Megan Fox

She was reportediy axed due to a want not to have Sam tied down with a love intrest. http://movies.yahoo.com/news/usmovies.accesshollywood.com/megan-fox-dropped-from-transformers-3

Reuters.com states it's due to Bay and company wishing to go a different direction. http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE64J04920100520 Bottom line, Fox is gone. - Zadok Rox 21:32, 19 May 2010 (EDT)

That news about Fox(cited) should probably be front and center in her own article, rather than down the bottom in trivia. --FFN 01:11, 20 May 2010 (EDT)
