Movie first of trilogy?

[webhead817]

Rumors are starting to pop that the Transformers Movie will be the first of a trilogy of films. Which, when you think about it, makes a lot of sense...trilogies are all the rage for Sci-Fi/Fantasy, thanks to Star Wars no less, and TF is looking to be one of the big 2 or 3 movies of the year.

Let's keep our fingers crossed...after all, more movies = more toys = more 'tix.

I've acually never heard that until today about there being a trilogy,but it makes sense.I just wonder how good the 1st one will be...probably one of the best

Let's hope it's a successful run!

i heard about this awhile ago, they said it depended on the sucess of the first movie, but sequils/triliogy were definatly an option

I do not care what the movie is, if it is successful, it will have a sequel or more. I just heard that they have already got Spider-man 4 in the works and already thinking of a 5th+! As far as Transformers goes I hope this movie is the dark horse for the summer season because there are alot of good movies this summer and I hope it can make the cut.

It has a lot of competition, I don't see it doing better than SM3, PotC3 or Shrek3...but a close 4th wouldn't be bad at all. They are setting it up fairly well for some cross over appeal (re: there is a story behind it that the girls might like too), so who knows.

In an interview, Peter Cullen (Prime's voice) said Bay's people told him there will be three movies.

the one i read said the same. but it depended on how well the first went. They also said their was chance of more than 3 films

I don't see it doing better than those movies either, but as long as it's close enough to them, I'll be happy.

I'm gonna see it over and over until it beats Shrek.

Just think how many Attacktix boosters you could get for all that money spent at the theater, though... ;D

Oh man.. I don't know if I even want to do the math...
Let's see, two adults for one movie = roughly three booster packs. My wife and I each get popcorn and share a giant vat of diet pepsi.. another two boosters at least....
Maybe I'll let Shrek have his day and I'll just go to the ToysRus around the corner from the movie theater and get the TF movie Tourney set instead.

it might be cheeper to just see it once then buy a copy until the DVD comes out
