In exciting news, Michael Bay has confirmed he is directing Transformers 5, it will be his final one as director. And don't think of this like a 'Hideo Kojima' situation, he went on to say he has to give the reigns to someone else. It would appear he'll be executive producer for all future Transformers movies.

Nice!  I'm a huge fan of the Transformers film franchise, and when I found out that Paramount wanted to make a Transformers Cinematic Universe, you can bet I was excited when that news came around!  So then, it seems Mr. Bay shall direct Transformers 5!  This dude has seriously hauled in some cash with the last 4 Transformers films!  I can't wait to see Transformers 5!  The story shall supposedly go two ways: with Optimus Prime in space, and with the rest of the Autobots on Earth with the humans!

 

I'm really hoping we get to see Unicron sometime soon...

 

Thanks for the news, Sora!

Why are people liking this? The movies that Michael Bay always make are always shitty with explosions. Just look at the TMNT movie. He simply ruined it.

Because people have opinions and like those films and have a right to like them! Maybe because you didn't like them doesn't mean they're horrible films!

People keep seeing them for a reason. Lol.

I love Michael Bay, but seriously is this fool freaking serious? Michael Bay said that he's done with Transformers after finishing Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Then he gone back on his word and he'll be directing Transformers 4. THEN Michael Bay once again said he's done with Transformers after making Transformers: Age of Extinction. I'm sorry Michael but you seriously need to stop lying okay, stop lying and stop going back on your word and just admit you want to continue the Transformers movie series because you like it. Of course the other reason why he's returning is because he's doing it for the money. -_-'

 

But at least Transformers 5 will have a new screenwriter which that's a plus for me. Ehren Kruger is a terrible writer and he did a terrible job writing the Transformers story and characters on TF: Revenge of the Fallen, Dark of the Moon, and Age of Extinction.

Well hey in his defence they keep asking him to return.

Which is why I said he's doing it for the money.

Of course, and you can't blame him.

True. I still love Michael Bay and he's one my favorite directors but I wish he just kept his word and move on.

I'm sure he is now since he's talking about having to give the reigns to someone else.

I know, it's hilarious. Everybody complains about Michael Bay and yet his movies continuously make tons of money despite getting critically panned. Of course they're going to ask him to return! There's no point in putting forth effort into making a good film when your audience will see it regardless. 

 

Honestly, while I knew they were continuing the Transformers franchise after 4, I thought Michael Bay would've gotten sick of making them by now. I guess not.

Well after 3 & 4 he took a break to make another movie.

I'm not expect Transformers 5 to be good at this point if it gets at least a 66 on Rotten Tomatoes I'll go see it because I want a Transformers Franchise that has the same level of Quality as The Marvel Cinematic Universe, at the very least decent/average at the most EXCELLENT.

They got new writers in the room now.

I mean, it's his job.

Well it's hardly exciting news, it's pretty much a given, even if he *said* he would quit. I gave up watching after the first three, I don't want to see how screwed up the rest will be.

 

Nah imma be sticking to the g1
