Michael Bay's Transformers franchise has been something of an anomaly with movie critics...and to be honest, movie viewers as well, because as much as people love to complain about how cheesy and hokey these films are, they keep pulling in huge amounts of money. Because of this, it should come as no surprise that they are working on a Transformers 5 movie, as well as spin-off films that will expand their cinematic universe. But what will the fifth movie in this franchise bring us?
According to BirthMoviesDeath.com they are going to try something different. In their own words, "In a shocking move away from the previous four films and their general narrative incompetence and incoherence, Transformers 5 will attempt to contain two story lines instead of none." I can't help but wonder if the writer, Devin Faraci, is a fan of the films? He goes on to say that the movie is going to follow Mark Wahlberg and the Dinobots doing their thing here on Earth, and it's also going to follow Optimus Prime as he flies through space and eventually ends up running into Unicron. Sounds like if you're just going for the explosions and fight scenes, you better start getting ready to actually follow a couple of plot lines and do some thinking.
All of this information comes to us through the courtesy of Mark Ryan who did the voice work of Jetfire and Lockdown in the Tranformers: Age of Extinction movie. A little "insider information" if you will. So what do you think? Are you excited for the next installment of the franchise? Are you someone who admits to actually liking the franchise? Me? I fall into the latter...how can you not? It's just a fun movie! That's why I keep going to see them!
