Transformers Live Action Movie

God this would be so awesome. Transformers was my favorite cartoon as a kid and now Michael Bay is in talks with Dreamworks/Paramount to do a live action Hollywood movie. I guess we can't expect much of a plot from the guy who made Bad Boys, Armageddon, and Pearl Harbor, but the action scenes will sure be cool. I hope. Autobots, ROLL OUT.

Bay also would reunite with writers Alex Kurtzman and Roberto Orci, who, under their two-year, first-look deal with DreamWorks, rewrote "Island" and wrote "Transformers." The Transformers are divided into two groups of robots, one led by Optimus Prime, which believes in tolerance and the sanctity of life, the other by Megatron, which espouses survival of the fittest and the extermination of biological life. A November 17, 2006, release date has been set. Bay's credits include the two "Bad Boys" movies, "Pearl Harbor," "Armageddon" and "The Rock."
