Jason Statham eyed for lead in Transformers 4

[Spade Lead]

Fuck I hope it becomes like Crank; mindless, brainless, utterly chaotic fun.

And that is exactly what I want it to NOT be... I think the current trilogy is PERFECTION itself. I love it with the fiery passion of a million suns, and I think adding more to it will only ruin that. In my eyes, it is my favorite trilogy as it stands. It ended perfectly. Now it needs to stay ended perfectly.

I think if there was even an inkling of a new Transformers film, or a Reboot, moviebob would PROBABLY kill himself.
Peter Jackson or Chris Nolan might be good choices for it; as has been previously said about classic cartoon series', games, t.v shows, etc... the Director needs a preserved sense of childlike awe for what their directing in order to keep it close to the original, but branching off and expanding in a way that is believable.

This is clearly hypothetical in choice; the transformers movies need to stay dead, lest angry fans go on an decepticon killing spree

What's worst about this topic is that there's going to be a transformers 4. Is Michael Bay doing it again?

 

[vviki]

Wait wait wait! Let us get this straight. Transformers 4 with None of the following: No Michael Bay, No Shila Beof, No Megan Fox; Now you tell us they are considering Jason Statham? This might just work. That or giving the franchise to Christopher Nolan to reboot . Go go go an fix it. Include the transformers theme while you are at it . Maybe my childhood can be unraeped after all.

Well, this is certainly interesting. Although i am noticing its a human being considered in the lead role. I hate those guys...

Unless they do scenario where Jason Statham IS a Transformer. Or maybe put The expendables 2 in a Transformers setting. Sly Stallone Is Optimus Prime!!

 

[Crazy_Dude]

As awesome as this sounds, I can think of a better role for him to play...

Spoiler

C'mon, you know you want it.

Yes...yes...YES!!!

please make it so

Thinking about it Jason Statham would be freaking perfect for that role.

 

[Hero in a half shell]

Hey, no more Michael Bay! Maybe the new director will make the movies ABOUT THE ACTUAL TITLE CHARACTERS! As far as the human characters go, Jason Statham is not the worse that could happen.

This, the transformers movies will not be liked by fans if you replace the various human elements, they will become liked by fans if you ACTUALLY HAVE TRANSFORMERS IN THEM!

Seriously, what differentiated the battle scene at the end of T3 with Battle Los Angeles? It was just military guys shooting at an ill defined alien enemy.

Note to Spielberg: Indiana Jones needed less Aliens. Transformers needs more!

The only people that should be in the lead for a new Transformers are the robots themselves.

The first hour and a half of Dark of the Moon was frickin' human-focused. And by the time the robots really began fighting, the humans were still the focus.

I just want a Transformers movie where they focus on the Autobots and the Decepticons.

there shouldn't have even been a seond film but by god if jason statham is in it im sold

 

[CoverYourHead]

Y'know who should be the lead in the next Transformers?

The voice actor of Optimus Prime.

 

[Agent Larkin]

If this does happen then Brad Jones has to watch nit.
