PinkiePie97 906 Share August 6, 2017 I'm not sure if this is the right board for this since it doesn't directly relate to the 2017 movie, so feel free to move it if it's not. Anyway, it seems Hasbro is planning on another MLP movie after this one. This article mentions that Boulder Media is developing a theatrical film (Films? They mentioned MLP next to Stretch Armstrong, so they probably meant one of each.) for MLP.https://www.comicbookmovie.com/transformers/hasbro-confirms-that-a-new-animated-transformers-movie-is-in-developmentbut-theres-a-catch-a153078 Keep in mind this isn't definitely happening yet, as a lot of projects don't get past the development stage. But it does seem like it's at least being considered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges
Tnas 8626 8 Share August 6, 2017 I think it could be possible another movie if Hasbro gets good sales from the first one and sees an opportunity. However, I don't think it would be a good idea. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CypherHoof 25,653 Share August 6, 2017 probably the usual hollywood sequelitis - if MLP#1 is a success, they want to be able to start production early on a #2 before people forget, so are brainstorming scripts and working out what resources they would need to book for such a project. However, they are probably also doing the same for a half dozen other possible sequels, plus one or two first movies on other "properties", so its no real guide for if it will go forward or not.

cmarston1 5,731 Share August 6, 2017 I am more interested in the possibility of the animated Transformers movies. However given that they are set in the live action film universe, I am worried about them not being very good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

Kyoshi 35,699 Share August 6, 2017 Sounds incredibly vague. Not much of note here other than a possibility. We all know if the first one is a big enough success, more films *could* follow. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges
Hierok 11,803 Share August 6, 2017 I think it would be fun to see another, but only if the first one is fun to watch too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges
Steve Piranha 19,069 Share August 6, 2017 I can see they trying a new MLP movie, but I'll assume it'll be direct to DVD for now unless this upcoming one proves to be successful 4 hours ago, cmarston1 said: I am more interested in the possibility of the animated Transformers movies.

You know what franchise had a shit movie, but had a successful animated series adaptation in the same universe?

This guy Hide contents Hell, even the original creator of Godzilla loved that guy I've never seen Godzilla the animated series, but I have heard that it is actually pretty good, despite coming from a pretty terrible movie. Hopefully if we do get any of those animated Transformers films, they are similar to what happened with that Godzilla series. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

May be true. While EG has its share of magic doing mischief, the human world is pretty limited to make an interesting theatrical-worthy plot compared to Equestria Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

GrimGrimoire 4,945 Share August 7, 2017 This is not too surprising... usually talk is in the works on sequels before the parent film has dropped on the general public. It is like studios automatically assume every film will be a runaway hit and that every movie goer will be begging for a sequel. I am not against sequels to films I enjoy, but I don't necessarily want to see them every year or other year. As for the Transformers franchise and film... What Hasbro needs to do is quite farming out the Transformers brand and go back to basics by listening to the fans. By not listening to them we end up with this debacle that is The Last Knight. They should have titled it The Last Film... ever, or better yet, really watched AOE, looked at the script for TLK and said "NO.... Just NO!". And I have my doubts Bay will leave anyway, he has been promising to go since the original film almost and yet he keeps coming back like an infection. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges

On the plus side, I'm at least happy that they backpedaled on using the quintessons as the Transformers creators and had one of the thirteen show up (which technically still works as their "creators" since they made the well of sparks and all, while not being 100% true due to primus). The quintessons as the transformers creators hasn't been canon for years now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The quintessons as the transformers creators hasn't been canon for years now. For me, the Quintessons are the creators of the original G1 Transformers, at least the cartoon version (or they at least claim they are). They never bothered me much since they did not have enough time to really flesh it all out... and I can accept different origins for different generations/universes. I would just be happy if they retconned Wheelie out. Daniel to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites Badges
Jangocoolguy 432 Share August 10, 2017 That's not so surprising. Talking about sequels before the first one it released it quite common these days (sadly). Though it'll depend on how this one does first. Shoot, it's happened several times when a series--or even a cinematic universe--was in the planning stages, then they had to quit because things didn't go as well as expected.

Animation100 106 Share August 15, 2017 The first film I assume will follow Allsparks' track of Minuscule Budgets for their films, meaning a sequel is VERY possible Quote Link to post Share on other sites
