Roberto Orci said in an interview at the Television Critics Association's summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif., on July 14. " that the movie will feature more of the giant robots and more of a science fiction storyline.

 

The sequel will also offer a better balance between humans and robots,

 

Maybe there's less humans," he said. "The first movie was predicated on the structure of a mystery, at which point, at the midpoint, the Transformers are revealed. This movie is structured differently in that you now know there are Transformers in the world, and therefore you can get right to them. As a result, there's kind of more Transformers throughout the movie."

 

 

what new Transformers audiences will see. Arcee, the female Autobot who transforms into a motorcycle, "was in an early draft of the first movie, and she may make an appearance," he said. "We'll see."

 

But expect to see Soundwave, the Decepticon who was cut out of the first film. "Yes," Orci said. "Soundwave's in it." It's unclear whether he will transform into a tape deck, as in previous incarnations, or into something else.

 

Orci also declined to comment on rumors that the film will spend a bit more time on the Transformer homeworld of Cybertron.

 

But Orci promised that fans won't be disappointed. "If you liked the first one, you'll like this one," he said. "But if you were a genuine fan of what Transformers was and felt a little bit left behind by the first one, I think this one's going to be more for you." Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is in production now with an eye to a June 26, 2009, release.

 

source orci ,soundwave, humans, arcee and more.

Ok... this mostly sounds good to me. (except I'm wondering how you can be in production and not know exactly which characters are in the movie...)

 

But what does THIS mean?

"But if you were a genuine fan of what Transformers was and felt a little bit left behind by the first one, I think this one's going to be more for you."

 

More what?

"for you"

Not that being "left behind" in my Geewonness was my problem, but that just confused me.

I guess you'll have to see the movie to find out.

 

Which means they've already taken your money so at that point it doesn't matter....

 

B :nooo Y!!!!!!!

Who knows, extra robot mayhem might = less time to realize that you're watching a Michael Bay movie.

 

I know that's what happened with me the first time... usually when the Decepticons were onscreen at least.

Hey if the whole movie is like the last 20 min of the first one the shaky camera won't keep me up at night.

I have no issue with shaky-cam (since I'm a Battlestar Galactica fan :redface), but I did have a problem with the fight choreography. It took me several viewings to figure out the geography (and timing) of everything.

cant complain more robot action/drama = good but that along cant make a good film but I'm guessing bay knows that

Sorry, I'm using "shaky camera" to encapsulate all my problems figuring out what the hell was happening in the fights.

 

I propose a shift to the term Confuse-o-Vision for this shooting style.
