Vulture says
Michael Bay is in final negotiations to direct a new Transformers film, insiders tell Vulture. In recent days, Bay has been assembling a cast for a long-gestating project that even predates Bay’s entry into planet-destroying, Pain and Gain, based on a three-part New Times story about the infamous “Sun Gym gang” a group of dimwitted Miami bodybuilders who kidnapped, tortured and robbed a Florida businessman but got their comeuppance when their left-for-dead victim hires a private eye to hunt them down. Insiders tell Vulture that Bay has been seeking to adapt the sordid revenge tale almost since its publication in 1999, and that it’s proving the major blandishment in getting Bay to commit to launching a new Transformers cycle. "Without Pain, there’s no tit for tat," explains one person familiar with the talks, "That’s Paramount’s leverage."
Nekki has announced that the forthcoming gun fu game, SPINE, will receive a movie adaptation to expand the franchise.

Stolen Review: Elle Márjá Eira makes an attempt at creating a story revolving Sámi people of Sweden.
This is awesome news. Personally I've really liked all the Transformers movies and the way he's made them. Here's hoping he gets Shia back in there.
Wasn't three going to be the last one? I think he wrapped up the story arc nicely with that movie, and I can't really see a possible starting point for new movies, as the leaders of the Decepticons are all dead.
Good news
Another one?
I haven't seen the films beyond the first one, but I've heard mixed reactions of them. They're trying to milk the franchise dry before giving it up, and I'm not sure if that's a good idea - look at Pirates of the Caribbean.
