No.
It's the same [world]," Bay clarified, explaining that 4 will not be a complete reboot. "You have the three movies, but there's a reason why there's a new cast. And it's explained very clearly when you see it, and it's going to feel natural. So it's not like we're starting over or anything like that.
Have no fear Fox fans, she has returned to the Bay family and can be seen as April O'Neil in the director's upcoming Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles live action film.

Let Siskel and Ebert rest in peace and enjoy the damn movie. Yo Bay, Let em Burn !!!!
What is this sudden surge of emotion I feel? Is it- agreement? Yowza!

If they don't kick ass just like the dudes, but are there only for eye candy. Why?
If one wants to see good looking women with few clothes, watch porn. Those women are hotter and show more.
Am I the only one who can seperate sexual urges from science fiction/fantasy?

I don't go to movies, the mall, work, restaurants, or any other place to specifically ogle women. But if they happen to be present and worth ogling, why not ? Anybody on this forum would sleep with Megan Fox if they had the chance. But then they come on here and talk all kinds of s**t about her. Exactly what do you want her to do in the movie ? The movie script called for Sam Witwicky to have a sexy girlfriend and she played the part quite well. What would you have preferred in the script ? Maybe for Sam to have a "partner" instead ? Or maybe for Sam to have necrophilia fetish throughout the movie ? I think Megan Fox played her part just fine and I don't associate anything she does in real life with her character in the movie. Hot chicks rule !

Truer words were never spoken in this thread. Personally I've said it before and I'll say it again, I think she did a better job than the VS model did. TF3 was prettier than 2 and the action was more ramped up without the corny kiddy /racial slang slinging bots but as far as acting went it was better in TF2 and TF1. Now if we could only get rid of the pesky humans and focus more on the giant robots instead of the human actors the movies may be better.

You avoided the question. What would you have preferred in the movie script instead of Sam having a hot chick as his girlfriend ? Do hot chicks offend you ?

You can't deny she was still a better actress than the Victoria Secret model that they had in 3. Her whole job was to act scared, then yell at the supposedly baddest "bad Robot" and give him a spine? She didn't even do a good job of being pretty in the movie

She was yes, though that's like deciding between two pieces of burnt pizza.

Rated X wrote:Unlike many people on these forums, I don't have bachelors degree in acting. I always felt that with todays editing technology, the term "acting" is over-rated. Every 2 seconds, the screen changes so they really don't have to memorize s**t more than a couple sentences. And those couple sentences can be done in 100 takes if necessary until a director with a acting degree decides on the final cut. Even a chimp can get it right once in 100 takes. Granted, some people fake emotion better than others. But if I was concerned about emotion, I wouldn't be watching fictional movies loaded with CG graphics. There's plenty of drama and love movies for those of you who like to break down acting. I prefer to enjoy the action and the eye candy. I'm not sure how one female can run or scream better than another unless you just enjoy nitpicking. But then again after seeing the comments made on the Blitzwing review thread, nothing surprises me here anymore.
That's fine for you, I'm not saying you have to agree with me.

Honestly, Fox, like many actresses who unexpectedly got famous overnight, has a habit of shooting her mouth off without thinking.
Bay himself isn't exactly a diplomat, and often says things in his DVD commentaries that would make the brass at Paramount break into a cold sweat. To his credit, though, he takes as good as he gives. I honestly don't think he gave a rat's ass about the Hitler remark until Spielberg stepped in.

You know he once refused to let an actress go topless right? Just because Megan Fox is a brainless bimbo who only gets by on her looks doesn't mean Bay put her up to it.

I have enough aesthetic appreciation for female beauty to know that nude Megan Fox isn't something the film needs. Actually, Megan Fox in general is something the film doesn't need. Or Hollywood for that matter.

Soon as we cover up those disgusting displays of sexulization of men in movies like Man of Steel...
...or Twilight...
...or the Dark Knight Trilogy...
...then sure. There's more to a female character than her looks or how "sexy" she is (I would argue against Megan Fox being sexy). In fact if you recall in the first movie Fox's character was more of an action hero than Sam, who merely did his best to stay alive while she charged into the action multiple times. View a character holistically please, not just by the way they dress.

If I hear him scream "Bee" one more time, I may have to kill someone...
Bay has a lot of "integrity" for hiring her back. What happened between them anyway? Lover's quarrel? Because the effect was about the same, and they're sharing a bed again.

She compared Bay to Hitler in an interview, Bay didn't give damn but Spielberg had her fired.
And she hasn't been hired back at all. Transformers 4 has an entirely different human cast this go around. Heck the thread title was that she isn't coming back.

Although now that the main human role is being played by someone else (can't remember his name right now), she might be even more of a sex appeal character than she was in the last movies.
Either way she'd be nice to have back.
I dunno man, I'd rather have Rachael Taylor back as Maggie.
