Hey, so we write about Gamez right? But what about the Generational side of things? Well here's some news for *OUR* generation!
For those of you who, like me, grew up watching Transformers this will be some long awaited information. Ever since the rumor mill began churning out tidbits about the possibility of a live-action Transformers I have been wondering who will make an appearance. I have pretty much ruled out the larger bots like Devastator (my personal favorite) and Omega Supreme (who was basically a city). But they could very well surpise us and bring in a planetful of them. If they were smart they might do something like the makers of the X-Men films did and bring in a limited number in the first film, if all goes well they can expand the rosters in a sequel. In an online Q&A session scriptwriters Alex Kurtzman and Bob Orci announced which robots will be in the highly anticipated Transformers live action film set to be released July 4, 2007.
The movie information has met with mixed reviews from fans due to the Director Michael Bay saying "we changed some of them [Transformers]..." Penny Arcade posted a comic, "Transformers Transfigured" about it where in Megatron is, well you'll see.
The lineups according to today's Q&A are as follows:
Autobots: Optimus Prime Bumblebee Jazz Ratchet Ironhide
Decepticons: Megatron Starscream Brawl Bonecrusher Skorpinok Frenzy Blackout Barricade
For more on the film visit the official website here.
Film info can be found at the IMDB page.
So with the film coming, there must be plans to do a game tie-in as well no? Everything is more than meets the eye...
