Paramount Has HOW Many Transformers Movies That They're Working On?!?

The Transformers movie franchise is a funny thing.  Critics and movie-goers seem to rip on each sequel that comes out, yet the last two movies in the story have grossed over $1 billion at the global box office.  So is it really any surprise that Paramount has put together a writers room that's strictly for writing Transformers movie ideas and scripts?  What is surprising is that there are currently 14 movie ideas for expanding the Transformers universe.  Transformers: The Last Knight is set to be released June 23, 2017, then after that it sounds like they are planning a Bumblebee spin off, then Transformers 6 and 7, but if they have 14 movies in the works, where will they decide to take Transformers?  The easiest thing to guess is that they may take them into outer space and over to Cybertron, maybe a possible origins story for them all. Your guess is as good as mine.

So you might be asking, "How did you come up with the number 14?"  It came from the man himself, Michael Bay.  In an interview at CinemaCon, he said this about the franchise:

"There are 14 stories written and there’s good stuff. I would like to do one of them though… A Transformers spinoff."

Wait, what?  He'd like to do one of these spinoff movies?  I thought he said he was that this was going to be his last Transformers movie (again!)?  Even though he keeps saying that he wants to move on from the franchise, he does seem to be the heart and soul of these movies.  So if he wants to come back and do another one?  Fine by me.  Sounds like he'll have 14 different opportunities to do it.
