Transformer

Starscream war immer der Verräter bei den Decepticons. Ich fand aber von denen immer Soundwave am besten. Der hatte noch 4 Kassetten die auch zu Robotern transformierten. Und die Computerserie war Beast Wars Transformers. War in Deutschland kein Hit aber ich finde die hätten warten sollen und auch die 2.Staffel bringen sollen die war richtig geil. Kein Wunder also das es hier gefloppt ist. In Japan dagegen waren die Beast Wars ein Riesenhit.
 
Transformers Go Live!
X-Men & LXG producers team for feature film.

June 11, 2003 - The Hollywood Reporter breaks the news that X-Men executive producer Tom DeSanto has joined forces with producer Don Murphy (The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen) to bring The Transformers to the big-screen as a live-action feature film. DeSanto is said to be "currently working on a story treatment for the project before he and Murphy hire a screenwriter to adapt it for the big screen." The last big-screen outing for the titular robots was the 1986 animated feature, The Transformers: The Movie.

Murphy and DeSanto will "shop" the project around to studios and have reportedly already "received interest from a handful of directors." THR claims the live-action Transformers movie will "tell the story of an intergalactic war between two races of robots: the heroic Autobots and the evil Decepticons. When their fight comes to Earth, the future of humanity inevitably hangs in the balance."

The trade paper reminds us that the Transformers, introduced in 1984, are "a group of robots that are able to change into a variety of objects, such as cars, trucks, planes, ships and other technological creations." The Transformers began as a "Hasbro toy line that spawned comic books, TV series and an animated feature."

Hasbro Properties Group president Jane Ritson-Parsons said in a statement that Hasbro "loved the creative take that Tom and Don presented to us. ... This is a franchise where the next story arc and the next destination is on the big screen."

Murphy says that "Transformers enjoys an amazing fan base worldwide, and we believe that we can create an incredibly fast-paced, exciting movie that will be appealing to anyone who loves action films." DeSanto says that Transformers, like X-Men, "offers an amazing mythology with all the elements to create a successful ongoing franchise, iconic characters, global themes and a world that has never been seen before onscreen."

Although a product of the 1980s, The Transformers are still alive and well. Cartoon Network currently airs Transformers Armada while Dreamwave publishes a new series of comic books based on the characters.

Und noch mehr News zum Transformers Film:

July 21, 2003 - Producer Tom DeSanto (X-Men) appeared at this past weekend's San Diego Comic-Con where he discussed his next project, a live-action feature film version of The Transformers. According to Sci Fi Wire, DeSanto advised the crowd that he and fellow producer Don Murphy are "working on the storyline for Transformers, and ... we're going to start going out to studios."

DeSanto wouldn't reveal much about the film's storyline except that it would go "back to sort of the roots" of the material "but if there's something great that ends up from a later storyline, it's the same principle as X-Men: Don't try to follow continuity, but get to the heart and the soul of what made it work."

Although Murphy revealed in a recent interview that filmmakers Michael Bay, Robert Zemeckis and Joseph Kuhn were candidates to helm Transformers, DeSanto remained tight-lipped except to say that "we've been talking with several now but we have a big guy next week."

SciFi Wire adds that fans should expect Transformers to combine both CGI and practical effects. "I think relying 100 percent on CGI would be a mistake. But, you know, you need CGI," DeSanto explained. "You will believe that an 18-wheeler will transform."

Transformers Buzz
Robert Zemeckis to direct?
March 26, 2004 - Inland Empire Strikes Back reports that, while attending Wizard World's Los Angeles convention last weekend, producer Tom DeSanto let it slip that Oscar-winner Robert Zemeckis will direct The Transformers. The site also claims that New Line Cinema will distribute the live-action feature version of the 1980s toy line and cartoon series.

Zemeckis has previously been acknowledged as one of several contenders for the director's chair.

Furthermore, IESB reports that The Transformers "won't be ready until at least late 2006, most likely a December release." They also claims that the TV series' voice actors Frank Welker and Peter Cullen will reprise their duties for the new film.

IGN FilmForce ran all this past our trusty Transformers source who asserted that "not a word of any of it is accurate" with the exception that New Line Cinema is one of the studios considering the property.
