Peter Cullen Talks Transformers: Dark Of The Moon Video Game

More Transformers: Dark of the Moon Video Game News. This time it’s about the legend himself; Peter Cullen.
.
To everyone, Peter Cullen is Optimus Prime. Mr. Cullen is lending his voice not only to the 3rd Movie, but also to the game as well. USA Today had the pleasure of interviewing him and he had this to say…

Fans trust him with the characters, and Cullen says he's earned enough pop-culture cred over the years to let Bay or video-game directors know that a line of dialogue may not be something Optimus would say.

"I can hear Optimus fans saying, 'Hey. That's not Prime!' I'd probably suggest to someone, 'Maybe there'd be another word we could use that isn't so hostile or so threatening.' Always trying to maintain that level of dignity and integrity and honor that he has is very important to me, and it's not missed very often," Cullen says. "I'm very happy to say that over the years, Optimus has maintained a level of respect on his own, too, so it's a great working relationship."

And Now For Some Bad News - The Hub in Trouble?
 
Originally posted by: Kickback @ TFW2005.com

There's been a lot of Transformers Dark of the Moon news and hype over the last week - everything from new TV spots, the video game being released, and more and more toys. But lost in all of that glorious fun is a story detailing the darker side of reality - Hasbro and Discovery Communication's parternship network, The Hub, might be in trouble.

According to reports from Deadline.com and the Hollywood Reporter, Discovery Communications (the other half of The Hub) has ammended their agreement with Hasbro Inc. regarding the fees for airing animated programs. The ammendment is based around a "trigger event", which could lead to a writedown of the channel's overall worth. Discovery Communications submitted a $500 million dollar debt filing to the SEC Monday morning.

The Hub is currently averaging around 23,000 viewers, down from 24,000 a mere month ago. These ratings pale in comparison to the other children's network giants Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network. It is important to note that no new network has ever shot up the charts and they all had growing pains in the beginning. The fear is that Discovery Communications and Hasbro are trying to do so in a failing economy and, for most United States customers, to even watch The Hub you have to pay a premium cable package which raises your cable rates upwards of $100 a month, which for most people, isn't worth it when you can just watch it online the next day thanks to the power of the Internet.

It is speculated that with the $500 million dollar debt filing, Discovery Communications will begin repurchasing its own stock while under the new ammended agreement, Hasbro will foot more of the bill to air their own programs such as My Little Ponies: Friendship is Magic and Transformers Prime.

What does this all mean exactly? In short, by Q3 (Third Quarter in Business Lingo) it may come to be that The Hub is not worth what everyone thought it was in a financial sense. Depending on what that overall amount is, it could cause one or both partners to pull out of the agreement, and The Hub will fade away in to the midsts of obscurity. That is worst-case-scenario however, but it's important to note that it is a viable possibility.

What can you do? Figure out a way to get The Hub with your cable package. Convince people you know with children how great The Hub is with their family-oriented programming. Instead of watching CSI while the kids play video games, gather the family around to watch your favorite family programs from the 1980's and 1990's. And, of course, watch Transformers Prime!

We'll keep you updated. A special thanks to The Live Action Transformers Movie Blog for the initial heads up on this story.

Hasbro International Licensing Expo 2011 Press Release - Tra

International Licensing Expo 2011 is happening at Las Vegas and if you are a fan of G. I. Joe you may already know of the new movie teaser tagline as well. Last year at the expo Hasbro-Paramount booth revealed a teaser poster for Transformers: Dark of the Moon (then known as Transformers 3 or TF3).

Today, TFW2005 received a Press Release from Hasbro regarding their ventures based on popular titles such as Transformers, My Little Pony etc.

It’s a very unusual Press Release… The PR is written in a manner as though the reader would see it in their personal point of view. Here are the Transformers Highlights:

…Some of the latest activities families can rally around include hosting a double-feature TRANSFORMERS movie night with home DVDs, watching Daytime Emmy Award nominated programs such as TRANSFORMERS PRIME…

…A full line of accessories can also be found scattered throughout a tween/teen bedroom including “More Than Meets the Eye” TRANSFORMERS baseball caps from New Era and sunglasses from Oakley…

…Room décor is another important facet of the tween/teen lifestyle. With a portfolio of incredibly rich brands that are meaningful to young adults – TRANSFORMERS…

…For those who like to “unplug” TRANSFORMERS comic books from IDW offer page-turning adventures…

…TRANSFORMERS pajamas by Sun City as well as TRANSFORMERS underwear and socks by Berkshire…

…while Dad grabs his TRANSFORMERS skinned smartphone from Anzo U.S.A. as he heads off to work …

…TRANSFORMERS chocolate cookies and chocolate eggs from Nestle, washed down with milk served in a TRANSFORMERS insulated container from Thermos elicit big smiles around the school lunch table…

…scribbling in notebooks carrying a TRANSFORMERS or LITTLEST PET SHOP brand graphic treatment from Innovative Designs…

…younger brother who has been waiting patiently and comfortably in his TRANSFORMERS bathrobe for his turn in the bathroom…

…Hasbro-licensed “rides” run the gamut from the General Motors BUMBLEBEE Camaro that may be Dad’s pride and joy to TRANSFORMERS bikes from Dynacraft that are the envy of every boy in the neighborhood. Little guys can mimic Dad and cruise on a BUMBLEBEE electric ride-on car from Hunter Leisure…

Rumor - Transformers 4 Directed by Steven Spielberg?
 
Originally posted by: Sol Fury @ TFW2005.com

Quote:
In a recent interview, Tyrese Gibson commented on the possible future of the Transformers franchise. On the much-discussed topic of the potential departure of Michael Bay he says that:

"There are no concepts, no direction, no nothing for Transfomers 4, because everyone has been so focused on Transformers: Dark of the Moon. But here is the safety net. Are you ready for this? Michael Bay decides to not come back for Transfomers 4. There is always Steven Spielberg! I am not saying that Steven Spielberg is for a fact going to direct Transfomers 4. But it is a beautiful safety net to know that one of the biggest, most respected directors in the world happens to be an executive producer on Transformers. He is someone who knows this world. And he could easily step in and direct Transfomers 4 if he decided to.

Take this as what it is - one actor's comments that should Michael Bay not return to take the helm for Transformers 4, then executive producer Steven Spielberg might take the lead. But also bear in mind what Tyrese says about Transformers 4 - There has been no work done on it because everything they have is being put into making Dark of the Moon a success.

Elsewhere in the interview, Tyrese also confirms Mudflap and Skids are not in Dark of the Moon.

Devastor Reissue Coming in Japan

He's coming back! The original Generation 1 combiner, and forerunner of all those lime green and purple construction vehicle Transformers, Devastator, is getting a reissue! Word came from the Tokyo Toy Show that he is on show in Takara-Tomy's booth, although what clinches it is this listing on Amazon Japan confirming that Devastator will be the 20th release in the Transformers Encore line - yes, the Encore line is being revived - and that his cost in Japan will be 10,500 yen. He is due for a release in November, just in time for you to start bugging significant others for that extra-special holiday gift.

Human Alliance Basic Wave 3 In-Hand Images

Some new images have been posted over on HK-TF of the upcoming third assortment of Dark of the Moon Human Alliance Basic series. Wave 3 consists of the new mold Decepticon Dragstrip and the Sandstorm recolor Half Track. Half Track sports a NEST logo on his front, which is pretty cool. Dragstrip meanwhile has a translucent driver - which looks reminiscent of the holodrivers from the movies proper, a nice touch. His weapon mode as previously reported is a gigantic shield that rivals the Armada Skyboom shield in size and body coverage. Check out the original posting by zeroeo on HK-TF here.

Unlike last time, it is no longer a 30 second TV Spot, but rather a 1 and a half minutes long full trailer oozing with brand new footage.

Enjoy below:


The title song "Iridescent" is performed by Linkin Park.

MP10 Masterpiece Convoy Version 2 Recent Images

Earlier, Amazon Japan posted recently released images of Masterpiece Convoy Version 2 by TakaraTomy. Notable differences from the 1st Transformers Masterpiece Convoy, include a more refined truck/cab mode, and stylistic differences in robot mode. These differences evoke the image of Prime's G1 animation model and his renditions in the various G1 manga/magazine illustrations.

MP10 is scheduled for release on September 24th, in the mean time, check out more images after the jump!
