You did? I think you posted the line-up but I thought we was in the guessing stage on that one, but the Peter Cullen interview was on 09/29/06 and I didnt see any posts on that date.

There's a new American made cartoon of the Transformeres coming out called Transformers Heroes, produced by Cartoon Network. The only thing I know is David Kaye of all people (he was BW Megatron) is doing the voice of Optimus Prime.
-
-
bump
Bay messageboards are indicating the teaser trailer will be out 12/22.
Charlotte's web? (it's a Paramount film) -
WHOA BOY, better be worth it.
-
I don't know for sure if that's what it'll show with, it was just some people's guess.
Of course, we can always just watch it online…I rarely catch trailers for movies when I want to see them anyway. -
Last night I had a popup which was a army ad but….it had a remixed version of the transformers theme playing, and the way it sounded...could it be the version thats gonna be used in the movie?
-
No, they haven't even begun with the music yet. There's all kinds of Transformers remix stuff out there already.
-
I know that, I just wasn't sure.
-
wow, i read your post about the megatron va playing optimus, wtf?
im actually looking forward to this movie, thanks for the info

Not for the movie, for the new animated series. I don't know for sure if it's true, I don't remember what the source was.
Here's some other rumors about it:
- Animation studio NOT Gonzo … rather it's Answer and Mook. Whether they're associated with Gonzo, no idea.
- Not "anime"
- Only TF related writer that's even submitted details/info is a guy who did some story editting on Beast Machines (ie: NO BEAST WARS WRITERS)
- Character design ... guy from Teen Titans, Legion of Superheroes, Fosters...
- Director ... did work on Teen Titans, X-Men Evolution
- Cartoon Network is partner in the show, not just the airing network
The overall look is brand new ... like nothing seen before in Transformers. It will not look like the Amarda/Energon/Cybertron trilogy.
-
So that means it's not anime, it's just an anime wannabe, yip yip.
-
-hooray! But I enjoyed Teen Titans…

I realize it is for the animated series. That is blasphamy. I mean i havent bothered with transformers since beast wars in any large amount but optimus always had the beast wars voice and megatron had his. They fit each other, now what? :sad:

Check Wikipedia for a pic of Skorpinok attacking civillians.

Well, considering that Optimus Prime has always been Peter Cullen and Megatron has always been Frank Welker to me, I can't say I really care that much just upon hearing the information, I just have to wait and hear it before I judge.
But like I said, it may not even be true. -
What Megatron VA is supposedly playing Prime in the new series?

Read the first post on this page. ^^
BTW from what I gather, the animation team for the new series will be Japanese, like the old one was, but that could be wrong, considering it originally said Gonzo was the animation group and the second rumor said that wasn't true…but maybe it's a subdivision.
More trailer news:
from allspark.com:
"We have recently confirmed with Paramount that the teaser trailer for Transformers will appear online Wednesday, December 20th and will then become available through streaming feeds one day after Christmas"
-
David Kaye (who did Megatron in Beast Wars) also did Soun Tendo in the Ranma 1/2 dub.
So I could never take Megatron seriously because all I could think of was Megatron playing Shogi with Genma… >.>
-
Hehe, I remember that.
Venus Terzo, who was Blackarachnia in Beast Wars, was female Ranma.
I remember one Botcon I went to, a certain guy I knew brought pictures of topless girl Ranma for her to autograph. ^^; -
Trailer comes out tomorrow online. Don't expect any major robot shots, since it's all post-production, and this is just a teaser.
Also, From Don Murphey:
http://www.d13satellite.com/donmurphy/showthread.php?threadid=16029HEAD STOOGE: The Last Sunday Post of 06, Now On Saturday
Come gather ye Stooges and Hear a New Tale….This will likely be the last posting of 2006. I am basically gonna miss Christmas this year, since Susan and I are knee deep in WHILE SHE WAS OUT, prepping in Vancouver for a February shoot. We hope to go right from that into FACES OF DEATH, and then who knows what next year will bring. (WE 3 ? Yes Please!) If it is a year like 2006, then please, more, more!
SHOOT-EM-UP is now tentatively scheduled for September 7, 2007. The film is amazing, exciting and funny as shit. Can’t wait to show you the new trailer.
The TRANSFORMERS trailer comes out December 20th online. I’m not going to hype it. If it doesn’t silence the haters, nothing will. The reality is that this film comes out July 4th, 2007, and the producers and the studio are already talking sequel. We know what we have is an exciting and amazing summer blockbuster.
The Don Murphy Message Board was set up by a fan of mine to discuss my movies. Soon, certainly by the new year, there will be a banner on top of the page advising that Transformers discussion should be moved to www.transformersmovie.com . I mean, you can post whatever you want wherever you want I guess…except there is no point anymore. The film is shot. The first director’s cut comes in next week. ILM is rendering the film. We all think that the film kicks ass. But, no matter what you post, it isn’t changing. All the polls in the world no longer make a difference. It seems to make more sense to discuss the movie on the movie site.
I know that from the beginning of this board, I have done my utmost best to make the fan base as happy as I possibly could. You guys demanded Cullen and despite resistance from some quarters he is in there. I feel Welker will hopefully come in there as well. There were things you wanted that frankly made no sense in a live action movie. And there were things I could not deliver, because I was only one voice among many. I think the board served its purpose and along the way created a community and for that I am most grateful.
I hope you’ll all have a great Holiday Season and be good to one another out there. Make the internet a little less hatefilled. Enjoy movies that look good. Enjoy your families and take care, and hang tight, Stooges, hang tight.

The new trailer for the Transformers movie has come out today.
http://video.vividas.com/CDN1/5029_paramount/en/web/It looks even better than the first trailer and I can't wait for it to come out.
-
After seeing this trailer I don't hink this movie will be as bad. Even though it is too early to say, but the story might work really well.
The way they transform wasn't exactly how i imagined them, but it still looks good.
All we can do now is wait.
-
do they talk? or not?
-
Yes they will talk. In fact, the voice actor from the original series is going to be Optimus Prime. :)
Wow, nice trailer. Looks good so far. But will the actual movie be good, and not just one gigantic money shot, we'll have to wait and see.
-
Damnit, no dialogue. The action looks sick though, however, the "or we'll kill you" line was kinda corny.

Check this out for more pics of robots. It is near the bottom of the page in different news articles.Megs still sucks though. He had better change, or life will suck.
-
^I don't really give much of a fuck about Megatron, but if he's a wuss in the movie…..well I'll just knock a start off it if I ever revierw it :p
-
Hey guys check it out http://www.transformersmovie.com/main.html
Watch the trailer on the new site, it's basically the same but it has Peter Cullen delivering Prime's signature quote at the end ^^
-
Looks nicely done, unlike those cartoons in Cartoon Network. God damn them.
-
I saw a movie trailer for it when I went to see Night at the Museum, and halfway through I stood up, clenched my fists and looked up at the ceiling and screamed, "DECEPTACONS!" (as a joke). Then they made me sit down. In the end when they showed that it was the Transformers movie, everyone laughed and one guy yelled, "I can see that every Saturday morning!"
-
Where does that guy live? Nobody shows Transformers on TV around here. XD Unless Energon is still being played somewhere, but I'm pretty sure it's not anymore.
I still remember the last time the classic show was shown on network TV, when the Generation 2 stuff came out (it wasn't the most successful of endeavors). I wonder if Boomerang will ever start showing it or something. Not that they need to for me to see it since I own every episode on DVD.
-
I'm close to owning. Though a bit off topic, I just found it funny that in a 24 hour period, I recieved four transformers shirts, because they kick so much ass.
-
I remember at my school once, a guy had a deceptacon bumper sticker and one of my friends shouted "DECEPTACONS SUCK!" as he drove by.

Final full-body Megatron? http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=119712

What was wrong with the old Megatron design? :\
-
I think it's just his cybertronian form. I swear if that wasnt Megs that would rock…but why cant they just use the original designs?
-
Yeah, good luck making that turn into a car without it seeming like it was half-assed.

His vehicle form is a "alien jet" not a car :[
I liked the series where Megatron was a tank.
-

Two 80's, Darth-Vader influenced for them I guess. :/
They're not trying to recreate the 80's cartoon. On a practical side, they probably feel his original design is a bit blocky and wouldn't be CG-animated very smoothly, or look plausible as a realistic alien life form.
-
Also, he's meant to hate humans. Why design a character to look like something he hates?
-
He didn't hate humans. They were just a race to be conquered. Of course, the Transformers had reasons to based off humanoid forms, depending on which continuum you followed. One thing I always did like about the Transformers was that despite proudly being machines, they had very human-like personalities.
-
^I suddenly got a flashback of the Basketball game the Autobots played in one episode of the old series.
Hmmm I dunno, CGI animating his old design doesn't seem to be THAT hard IMO, but still let's just hope this Megs lives up to the G1 Megs; treating everyone like they are his bitches.
-

I knew he was either a tank or a jet, I was just making a joke. I think my statement still kinda stands tho. XD
-
IMO a Tank is a good form for Megs, wonder why they didn't choose that?
BTW is Starscream's face still a gas mask? -

BTW, I got the 20th anniversary DVD and watched the movie, I never get tired of it. XD
-
I never went back and watched any of the commentaries yet. I really don't care if it was an hour and a half toy commercial, the first 40 minutes of that movie kicked ass.
-
The fan commentary is cool yet sad. The British guy must live on this movie.
-
I hope not. Starscream's one of my favorite characters :(
Well if memory serves me right, Hasbro have released 2 toy models of Starscream & Prime to the toy shops and Starscream looked like he had gas mask on him that looked fucking retarded. Though I hope it either gets removed from the final cut OR that he only puts it on when battling.
BTW, no offense bro, but I just remembered this hilarious Megs & Starscream quote-
Megs: "You're either lying or stupid!"
Starscream: "I'M STUPID, I'M STUPID!" -

I remember that line, it was from the one where Astrotrain and Blitzwing tricked Starscream and Megatron into getting trapped so they could take over. They made Starscream think he was in on the plan, but he was just a pawn. XD Part of Scarscream's charm was how quick he was to betray Megatron, but then grovel for forgiveness when his plan inevitably would go wrong.
