does this mean that they have rewritten tf history?
9 million years ago they had the begining of the decepticons
4 millions years ago the ark crash landed on earth
1984 is when the volcano jarred teletran one back into life and thus regenerated the cybertonians
the movie was set in 2006
and now we have mars?
wtf?
batman is my second specialist subject, for transformers i could write milions

I wasn't convinced it actually was Optimus Prime till this statement was released from Michael Bay
July 21, 2006 - This year's Comic-Con is the last where Transformers movie news can possibly be revealed, as the film releases next year on July 4th. As such, plenty of aspects of the film are being hinted at while the main, big secrets of the film remain under lock and key. At today's Hasbro Transformers toy panel, the toy company debuted the new 20th Century edition DVD box, and talked briefly about the upcoming live action Michael Bay film based on their toys.
Toy Designer Aaron Archer, who has been working closely with members of Bay's production team, stated the film "has a lot of heart; very cool," and told fans that the changes being made to the core Transformers are "nothing to worry about." He went on to say that the characters are not complete departures. "I think they're new interpretations," he stated.
Perhaps the most interesting tidbit gleaned from the panel is the fact that Peter Cullen is seriously being considered by the filmmakers for the voice of Optimus Prime. Cullen played the voice of Prime, and several other Transformers, in both the animated series and Transformers: The Movie. Fan support for Cullen as Prime has blossomed on tinternet message boards, and according to members of the panel, Michael Bay and company are looking into using Cullen as a result.
Archer went on to state that "the movie stands alone at this point," and probably will not weave into the various storylines of toys and future television series. Stay tuned to IGN's Comic-Con coverage of this film, as more details are sure to be unveiled as the weekend continues.

And this
Update from Michael Bay's camp, regarding the Optimus Prime pic!!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. The fan response to the Optimus Prime photo posted a couple days ago was massive. Considering the photo was live for only a few hours, the amount of talkback, emails and all around buzz around the internet just goes to show how big of a fan following this film has.
Michael Bay has an official site (CLICK HERE TO GO TO THE SITE) and forum there where he can talk directly to fans. The forums went a little nuts when the pic hit. I was told there was going to be some sort of official statement by Bay on this site by readers of the forums and while that hasn't happened yet, his moderator "Nelson" posted a little update that confirms the picture as real, but kind of skirts around most of the other issues. Here's the post:
Spoke to Bay this morning...
...as I said, he will post later on later regarding the designs (when I say later it could mean tonight or in a couple of days).
Among some of the stuff:
-They (Bay & Co.) are commited to maintaining total secrecy about this project until it hits the screen. We spoke of how there was no surprise factor to Peter Jackson's King Kong. You knew the whole movie ahead of time. There are some in the team who believe the audience's first peak of the robots in their normal mode should be when they sit down to watch the movie in the theater (in other words, no sneak peak of them in their normal mode in the trailers).
-Bay & crew are well aware of sites putting out BS info in orded to elicit a response from Bay & Co.
-The reasons why they went with a huge long nose truck for OP (BTW, regarding the flames, there is a context for them like Orci pointed out). Bay said they did test with flat noses (FN) for scale purposes, and the FN would only be about 20 to 25 feet tall, so they went with the biggest truck they could find: the Peterbilt. We're talking 40 to 50 foot tall robots here. The physics for these robots have to be real...aka no magically disappearing parts. Also, OP is going to have much more red than what was shown in the supposedly "leaked" photo.
-Regarding the designers... all I can say is he said they all had to be fans of the show in order to get their jobs.
-Regarding the Ludacris rumor...no, he does not have a part in TF.
"Supposedly leaked" yet still confirms the long nose and flames... and they certainly had a fit when they saw it was on this site... Strangely enough, I agree with the physics explanation, which is why I didn't freak out too bad at the long nose. I want there to be a certain degree of reality with these guys.
I also agree, to a certain degree, about KING KONG. I would have loved for them to have only hinted at KONG in the advertising and waited for the movie for us to have gotten our first, clean look at him. However, Peter Jackson had no need to prove himself to the fanbase when he made KONG. Overall, people trusted his vision of the movie icon. Bay doesn't have that luxury with the fans of TRANSFORMERS.
I really want to see Bay make his real deal statement. He can choose not to reveal one thing to the fans before the movie rolls next summer. That's his choice. The benefit of audience surprise is certainly something to consider, but he also needs to consider the negative impact of not doing anything to ease the rabid fan base's worries. The seeds of TRANSFORMERS success has to be planted now. If he's going to change up a character design, he has to show us why he's doing it. Make us understand his thought process, even if we don't agree with it. He can't just sit back and let this blow over.
The most vocal talkbackers, forum members, website owners, etc, desperately want to be supporters of a live action TRANSFORMERS movie. Unfortunately, what they are seeing doesn't work for them and if that's all they see, you'll feel the bite next summer. Non geeks will go see this because it's a huge event movie, but the geeks will be the ones that give it legs, that will come back over and over again, bringing their friends, family, etc. They're also the ones that can taint this movie with negative buzz a year out, like what's going on here.
Bay has been very kind to me in giving me access to this film. He seemed to genuinely want to speak to the fans and assure them that he has their interests at heart and will do them proud. I hope he still has that point of view now that the fans have disagreed with one of his decisions. I want him to make a badass, huge popcorny fun big budget TRANSFORMERS movie. He's certainly on the right road from what I have personally seen. I'd hate to see him stumble by messing up the details or at least messing up the way he deals with the fans.
Anyway, I'll keep an eye on Bay's message board and my ear to the tracks with my sources within Dreamworks and Paramount. Hopefully Bay himself will speak out soon and hopefully he'll have something good to say.

So basically what i can get from that is----
They will be using a proper Flat fronted rig for OP but they want it kept undercover so they have realesed these pics saying "Yes this is OP" to get people talking

It's all speculation really.
It wouldn't suprise me if they did depart from the original designs. There must be loads of commercial tie-ins going on between the film makers and the car/truck manufacturers. At the end of the day if Peterbuilt want to supply them with 10 free long nose trucks it's not like they're going to say no.
As mentioned, BumbleBee is totally different.
Of course what people want to see is this:

hopefully they do stick as much to the original story line as possible in terms of characters and the cars/trucks/jets etc they turned into. been on the website and it actually could be quite good, there are three films planned

I don't see why they can't go find a few old long wheelbase Frieghtliners, surely there's plenty about.
Optimus Prime was so iconic, it's obvious any 25-30year old watching is going to shout "THAT'S NOT OPTIMUS PRIME!" as soon as that long nose rig comes on screen.
Thing is wasn't Megatron a gun and one of them a cassette tape, surely they can't use these either really.

the problem is that there was no size tramophication problems in the cartoons
why did no one ever wonder wehre the trailer unit went when op chaged into his robot form?
why is it that soundwave was small enough to be picked up by spike in the pilot and yet he was big enough to rock on when he was normal?
these things don't matter so why should they matter in the film?
and prime needs to be a falt fronted truck, he's the ultimate hero the likes of which we'll never see so why change him?

these things don't matter so why should they matter in the film?
and prime needs to be a falt fronted truck, he's the ultimate hero the likes of which we'll never see so why change him?

Similar looking rig to the one that chases Arnie in Terminator 2, They could use one of them and make it bigger surely

I don't see why they can't go find a few old long wheelbase Frieghtliners, surely there's plenty about.
Optimus Prime was so iconic, it's obvious any 25-30year old watching is going to shout "THAT'S NOT OPTIMUS PRIME!" as soon as that long nose rig comes on screen.
Thing is wasn't Megatron a gun and one of them a cassette tape, surely they can't use these either really.

Well i have just been on the Transformers forum and,.......
it would seem that the original bloke who did Optimus Primus voice Peter Cullen is doing it for the movie
ALSO
The sound of when they change from car/truck ect to the robot is also being used from the cartoon too
CANT FOOKING WAIT...
Check the forum out peeps, good reading
