At the premiere of Friday the 13th , Collider managed to get Michael Bay to speak at some length about Transformers 2 . Between awkward, joking rants about owning the website and pretending to punch people a few times, he revealed: - He’s shot three scenes in IMAX–just like Dark Knight , that Batman movie we all liked! - The sequel will be darker–just like Dark Knight , that Batman movie we all liked! - The Transformers will be more emotive this time around. The effects team probably got a new set of Intel microchips and did a virus scan to get more computer power into robot facial expressions. That’s my understanding. - The film is at 2 hours 20 minutes now, but Bay is still editing it down. So basically that means it will be under 2 hours 20 minutes, in case you thought it was going to be like Lawrence of Arabia with an intermission. - “It’s not trying to just be bigger to be bigger.” That sentence he was lying about. He’s definitely making it bigger to be bigger, and thank god. The only saving grace of another Transformers movie is that it will definitely be bigger. No one is excited about seeing a smaller, more introspective Transformers movie. But yes, it will be bigger. - Bay will be waiting at least a year if he decided to start on a third chapter of the series. Let’s hope my already-deteriorating paper-mâché Optimus Prime head will last until that opening night! Full video interview here .
