Roberto Orci, co-writer of Michael Bay's upcoming sequel Transformers:
Revenge of the Fallen, has spoken to SCI FI Wire regarding the project tell them that "the movie will feature more of the giant robots and more of a science fiction
storyline."
"The humor will be similar, but the structure of the movie is a little bit more
like many sequels, which is, the stakes are a little higher and the tone is a
bit more sci-fi," Orci said in an interview at the Television Critics
Association's summer press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif., on July 14. "It's got
a little more of a sci-fi element. ... The bad guys are little more coherent in
terms of what their plan is and what they're attempting to do. So it feels more
like more of a sci-fi battle."
For those hoping to see more Transformers screen time Roberto's comment on that has a slightly negative ring to it using the phrase kinda of more. Here's a quote."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".
When asked about Arcee Orci replied "[she] was in an early draft of the first movie, and she may make an appearance, we'll see". When asked about Soundwave he replied "Yes, Soundwave's in it".
The article ends with the following quote:
"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."
