Michael Bay hat auf seiner Seite folgendes Statement abgegeben.

I Do Not Apologize For Any Transformers Movies

It is a drag talking to reporters on sets. Why? Because often times they take your words and skew things to their liking. Then the crazy, lazy game of reporting on what other writers story’s reported me saying and suddenly it becomes skewed Internet truth. So I waste my time to restate exactly what I did say, again.

No I did not ‘apologize’ for any Transformers movies. I did not say I shot the last three movies “less cool” than the new fourth installment. I was talking specifically about camera style and tone, of the first movie compared to how I shot the new installment with a very big scale, cinematic style. I was very specific in saying the first Transformers was shot in a ‘generic suburbia’ area, not trying to be cool with any cinematic flashes. I wanted it to feel like this could happen in any backyard in the United States.

So that brings me to letting Transformers fans know that we have completed our five and half month shoot. We got back from a month long shoot in China. My crew and I had a fantastic time shooting in Hong Kong and Mainland China. It was an amazing experience, and I love the country. My cast was absolutely fantastic, and a very fun group to work with. We are working hard cutting the movie right now. I think the first piece comes out for the Super Bowl and a teaser right after that.

And yes, I’m very excited about this new movie.

In einem Interviewe von ign.com mit Michael Bay macht der Regisseur klare Ansagen. Es sind Aussagen, die Transformers Fans nur zu gut kennen. In diesem Film soll es keine Albernheiten geben. Aber ihr könnt einen Auszug hier selbst lesen, so auch, das Michael zu den Universal Studios zu Transformers The Ride gefahren ist, um dort Erfahrungen von den Kindern zu sammeln.

While epic in scope, Michael Bay's last three Transformers movies have been criticized in the past for their few hokey moments. (Giant robot testicles come to mind...) However, that might not be the case for Transformers 4, which Bay recently stated is going for a more serious tone.

"I wanted the first [three] Transformers to be very suburban and less cool," the director told Yahoo! Movies while talking about next year's fourth Transformers installment. "This is a much more cinematic one. I focused on keeping this one slick. There won't be any goofiness in this one. We went a bit too goofy [on the last one]."

Of course, it won't all be grim 'n' gritty. Mark Wahlberg's character, for instance, plays a "wacky inventor" who is turned off by his daughter's new race car-driving boyfriend -- not exactly the most grounded premise, on paper. Perhaps Bay is more referring to the Transformers themselves and their storyline.

On what brought him back to direct Transformers 4, Bay said, "It was the Transformers ride [at Universal Studios]. It was seeing this two-and-a-half hour line, with all these kids lined up." Indeed, a literal thrill ride is the way to any action-fimmaker's heart.

Laut einem Interview mit Michael Bay wird der 4. Transformers Movie der erste Transformers Movie sein, der nur mit einer Full IMAX Digital 3D Kamera gedreht wird.  

Up until now, every feature film shot in full IMAX (of which there have been only a handful – The Dark Knight, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, The Dark Knight Rises, Mission: Impossible Ghost Protocol, Star Trek Into Darkness and now The Hunger Games Catching Fire) has filmed with a 65mm 2D IMAX film camera. IMAX has a 3D film camera available, but most filmmakers find it too big and loud to actually use. (Star Trek Into Darkness is the only of those films to be exhibited in IMAX 3D, but it was post-converted.) It wasn’t until recently that IMAX created a 3D digital camera, which will allow 3D capture in full IMAX. The first filmmaker to use that is Michael Bay on Transformers: Age of Extinction. That camera is much smaller and lighter than the other IMAX 3D cameras and will be used quite a bit in the future. There is no 2D digital IMAX camera, but one is being developed. Murray explains some more:

[The 3D digital camera] offers the full height aspect ratio. Our camera is based on a digital camera called Phantom. It’s a 3D camera, so we used two of their sensors and the reason we picked them was they were the closest sensor size to IMAX film frames. They’re not quite as big as IMAX film frames, but they are very close. They allow us to use the same lenses that we developed for our 3D film camera, which is much bigger and heavier. This 3D digital camera is very light and compact and easy to use.

Steve Aoki ist im Gespräch für den Transformers 4 Age Of Extinction Soundtrack. Vor ein paar Stunden hat er getwittert, das er mit Michael Bay im Gespräch ist: "Discussing war politics between the autobots & decepticons over dinner w/ #michaelbay s4te #transformers4". Es geht wohl um den Song, den er mit Linkin Park schon zusammen gemacht hat: Linkin Park & Steve Aoki - A Light That Never Comes. Wir halten euch auf dem Laufenden.

Heute können wir euch mitteilen, das der erste Trailer zu Transformers Age of Extinction wahrscheinlich am 2. Februar zur Eröffnung des Superbowls gezeigt wird. Es ist sogar sehr wahrscheinlich, denn bei den anderen Real Movie Filmen, war es genauso. Die Information wurde jetzt in den Schuhen von Nike gefunden, die es für den Spieler Calvin Johnson gibt.

Das Empire Magazin hat einen Artikel verfasst, aus dem wir neue Informationen zum Transformers Age Of Extinction erfahren. ABER ACHTUNG!!! SPOILER!!! Der Artikel nennt einige Charakternamen und enthüllt einiges zur Story.

This fourth film in the franchise is something of a fresh start, and sees an Earth scarred by the events of the last three films but moving on after the disappearance of all giant robots (although we're guessing that everyone gives their car a suspicious look in the morning, lest it suddenly turn into a giant mechanoid). In particular, Shia LaBeouf and family have moved on and we have some new leads.
When Mark Wahlberg's inventor, Cade Yeager, discovers a buried Transformer, the stage is set for the return of the giant beasties. There will also be some business with Cade's daughter Tessa (Nicola Peltz); her secret racing driver boyfriend Shane; Stanley Tucci's Joshua; his geologist assistant Darcy (Sophia Myles); "the CEO of the Chinese Transformers", played by Li Bingbing; and Kelsey Grammer's Harold Attinger, the film's non-robot big bad.
"I'm feeling really good about this one. I love my cast," Bay told us. "There's a huge scale to this, but also huge soul."
Mark Wahlberg also seemed to be enjoying the experience when we visited the set. "Ted was a good tool to prepare me for this," he said. "Having to identify with things that aren't there. The bear prepped me for that. And as embarrassing as doing things like the fight sequence with him were - just throwing myself around a room for 12 hours while the crew just sat eating sandwiches and watching - it taught me how to do this shit."
It also looks like this will not be the last instalment of the series, with Bay open to continuing the franchise, it seems. "Well, it's a director's world... It's a franchise world at the moment. You know, Peter Jackson is still in Middle-earth..."
