Yea, but i prefer a teaser where you see something that last more then a milisecond.

I well look forward to the movie - for some reason I was hoping that they'd CGI the old one with the same story etc. I would certainly pay to see it again!

Holy thread revival batman :eek:

Anyway i couldn't find any references to this from a search so i'm guessing it's not common knowledge, but its a released concept art pic of optimus and megatron from the new movie....

Note the flame decals on optimus...

...and the general idea seems to be that megatron looks rubbish.

yup, i don't know if it was actually confirmed, but the stories going around were that the citroen adverts with the transforming, dancing and ice skating car was actually a testing scenario for the cgi technology to be used in the movie.

just a rumour though, i never saw it totally confirmed.

Michael Bay?

I thought it was Spielberg :confused:

Good find. I'm hoping it will hold true to the series though. Megatron doesn't look based on a weapon, vehicle or what not there.

I would guess that's what he looks like before he takes shape of anything.

Besides it's only concept art.

Just in case anyone hasn't seen this, it's another concept test that has been floating around the web for some time: -http://www.blackfilm.com/20060512/features/transformertest_video.shtml

*roffles* beagle 2 seems to have had a use in the end after all!!

50 million quid to give a move a plausable plot line :rolleyes:

the music sounds excellent. as for the art work thats floating about i really wouldnt put much stock in that... its VERY doubtful that they are going to be coated in "flames" and "go faster stripes!" and also have body parts resembling that of a truck or such... i think they will be big, blocky, mechanical looking, but not obviously transformer like in the traditional sence. simply because it would be implausable for an alien race to build these monsters and they "just happened" to paint some flames / go faster stripes / and gave them a nice set of alloys on their ass... :rolleyes:

Actually I thought that a fan made that ages ago on a fan site?

I believe the storyline will start on cybertron, where they have cybertronian bodies, however when they land on earth they take on forms resembling earth vehicles, hence the trucks/flames/alloys etc.

I doubt they're going to accurately recreate the characters from the tv show, they'll definitely be re-doing them to appeal to a new generation of kids, and as we all know that means 'the fast and the furious' flame decals and go faster stripes :rolleyes:

For one example Bumblebee will no longer be a VW Beetle, but a Chevrolet Camaro.

I'm sure I read on seibertron.com that the Megatron concept definitely wont be used in the film.
