    Default Next Transformers movie name?

    Kind of a fun idea for a thread idea - what would you call the next Transformers live action movie?

    Mine would be...

    TRANS4ORMERS

    I like Paulbot's one (TransFourmers)... cos Trans4ormers is like... Transfourormers.

    I hope it's not another [adjective/verb] of the [noun] again. Kinda getting sick of sequels with that formula in their names...

    Revenge of the Fallen
    Dark of the Moon
    Attack of the Clones
    Revenge of the Sith

    ...I just feel it's over done now. Especially considering that 2/3 Transformer movies have already used that formula in their title. Please no "Transformers: Disguise of the Robots" (>_>)

    I also hope that the next movie title will be relevant to the movie too. Revenge of the Fallen made sense... cos ya know, the Fallen came along and he wanted revenge I suppose. But does anyone recall seeing any scenes in DOTM that was actually set in the moon's dark side? Or in any particular dark area on the moon? (other than inside the Ark which was actually quite well lit) -- everything seemed to be on the bright side of the moon IIRC. Unless the darkness was a metaphor for the army of evil robots that just conveniently happened to be living there. They must have been whaling.

    Wasn't it called dark of the moon on account of the video stream being purposely disconnected so no one could see what they were really there for, if I recall someone on the other end said to the ship "you are now dark" or something along that lines? Correct me if I'm wrong, probably am. :P

    They said, "Neil, you are dark on the rock" <--- note the explicit use of the word on, and not "of". If one were to use the preposition "of" in this sentence, it would indicate derivation, source or origin. However, as they have clearly used "on" as a preposition, it indicates physical attachment (i.e. they are on the moon).

    If what you're saying is true, and the film title is meant to reflect the brief moment where Armstrong's crew are cut off from media news broadcast, then the movie should be called "Transformers: Dark ON the Moon", not Dark of the Moon.



    Also seems a tad odd to name the entire film after a brief plot device in the story rather than something more significant, like say, the location of the Ark. It'd be as if they named the second movie "Transformers: Shanghai Showdown" or Star Wars Episode VI "Star Wars: Attack on Jabba's Palace" -- all significant plot points, but hard the main or significant part of the overall story that would warrant placing them into the story title <---JMHO anyway

    I hate to be a negatron, but I actually really hate 'Trans4mers'. I just can't picture it with the TF font, I can't take it seriously. Meh

    I have nothing else to contribute.
