Principal photography for the third installment of Michael Bay’s “Transformers” will get underway in May and without a finished script. You are at work, or at home, or viewing this post on your iPhone as you hurtle at insane speeds through traffic and you are shocked and amazed. How can they start filming when the whole creative process isn’t complete yet??!
Here’s a quiz for you. What exactly was the plot in the first two Transformer movies?? Hello? Still with me? Yes, you can clearly see now that character development, witty banter and a point are just a possible value added component of your effects pregnant summer blockbuster. Shia can ad lib the lines. He’s good. Megan Fox can do what Megan Fox does. The robots will do the rest friend. It’s all about the robots. Maybe Megan over a motorcycle too. Just for fun.
Word also is that 3D is a possibility. For me, a “Transformers 3″ with 3D is going to be retinal suicide. I’m still going of course. Thanks to Deadline Hollywood for the scoop.
