The production team of TF2 is throwing out so much false information (in hopes of engulfing any true leaks that may get out to the public) that it may be difficult to know what is fact and what is fiction.

== 3-D ==
{{Wikipedia:WikiProject Films/Assessment/Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen}}
So it's gonna b 3-D like Bewoulf?[[Special:Contributions/90.149.58.120|90.149.58.120]] ([[User talk:90.149.58.120|talk]]) 16:41, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
:So who's seen ''Beowulf'' in 3D? We don't know, because it's never been discussed beyond being listed by the distributors. When info arrives, it'll be in the article. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 21:30, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
::I think this has been misinterpreted. The robots are created in 3D CG programs. I have not read anything about this being in 3D. And ''Beowulf'' in 3D was the only way to see it, in normal theatre presentation it would have been a very boring film. But back on topic, unless Paramount have signed an agreement of sorts with IMAX and Real D cinemas to show certain scenes in 3D (like some ''Harry Potter'' movies in IMAX), I think this should be removed, so it is a science-fiction action film instead of science-fiction 3D film.

== Rumoured title ==
== Budget ==


[[Template:Infobox film]] says not to cherry pick budget figures. The budget is listed as $200 million based on information BoxOfficeMojo.com but The-Numbers.com says the budget was $210 million.[https://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Transformers-Revenge-of-the-Fallen#tab=summary] -- [[Special:Contributions/109.78.197.202|109.78.197.202]] ([[User talk:109.78.197.202|talk]]) 22:39, 8 May 2020 (UTC)
Head's up: this [http://www.reserveresult.com/2008/06/transformers-2-revenge-of-fallen.html blog] reports this film will be subtitled ''Revenge of the Fallen''. A [http://blogs.usatoday.com/entertainment/2008/06/transformers-to.html USA Today] blog also reports it, although whether their source is this blog or if it's the other way round, remains to be seen. Secondly, will it be called ''Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'' or contain the number? I will keep waiting for a press release or a Bay forum post. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 15:39, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
: I checked the [[Talk:Transformers:_Revenge_of_the_Fallen/Archive_2#BUDGET_update|talk page archive]] and it pointed to an interview where Michael Bay saying the film cost $194 million [http://web.archive.org/web/20090628074529/http://michaelbay.com/newsblog/files/b7f044df56ae3317b4b36abb77c88f9b-546.html] -- [[Special:Contributions/109.78.197.202|109.78.197.202]] ([[User talk:109.78.197.202|talk]]) 22:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)

Just to clarify, Paramount sent a note to a fansite, saying there is no ''2'' in the title. Reading the Hasbro PR again, they changed the title too. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 15:08, 21 June 2008 (UTC)

==Call sheet==
I've removed all statements apparently sourced only from a purported call sheet that was posted to a forum. This is an encyclopedia, it isn't a place for gossip, speculation and dodgy references. --[[User talk:Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The|Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The]] 11:50, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
:A call sheet is not a dodgy reference. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 15:04, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
::What evidence is there that the call sheet is authentic? I think it looks real but is there coclusive proof? If not, the first editors removal of all refs seems apprpriate. Thoughts? <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/86.2.32.31|86.2.32.31]] ([[User talk:86.2.32.31|talk]]) 12:54, 8 June 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
::: That's it. It's just something posted by somebody to some board or other. Even if it comes from the production company, it could be a sample sheet or the cast could have been changed after it was produced. We have no way of authenticating it at all. --[[User talk:Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The|Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The]] 13:26, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
:::: It was taken off the set, and TFW2005 is a reliable source: it's shown on the DVD, and Bay and [[Brian Goldner]] noted they and other fansites found every piece of concept art etc. and they would even receive feedback. A callsheet is much more reliable than any rumour, and considering fans now know Jetfire, Arcee, the Twins and the Constructicons are in the picture, fighting it'd be futile. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 16:47, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

::::: According to a note on the home page, TFW2005 is simply "the largest fan community related to Transformers toys." This doesn't sound to me like anything resembling a reliable source. Moreover the actual document cited seems to be an attachment to a forum post. I could register at the forum myself and post a document. Would that mean you could cite my document on Wikipedia?

::::: What DVD is this call sheet shown on? Obviously we don't want a fight, but unless we get a reliable source for this claim it (and the puported call sheet posted on a fan forum) will have to go. --[[User talk:Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The|Anticipation of a New Lover's Arrival, The]] 18:08, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
:::::: No obviously this call sheet isn't on the DVD, if you mean what DVD Bay discusses the Transformers fandom then obviously...
:::::: Anyway, I won't bother, but I won't revert IPs adding the info either as it is correct. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 18:20, 8 June 2008 (UTC)



==More stuff sourced from forum postings==

:::::::: Uh, excuse me? ''One of the movie producers'' confirms that a user posting under one of the screenwriters' names is indeed said screenwriter.

== Confirmation of No Dinobots - Reinstate in to Article? ==
I see the justification for this removal of "if they're not in it..." but they're mentioned twice in the article before that point (the very first sentence in the Production section), they're a fan favourite and iconic group from the cartoons, and I believe this warrants a mention.
I say pull together all three references, at at least the second one to them and put it to bed ie.
"Orci was dismissive of the Dinobots, although after filming began he became fonder of those characters, because of their popularity. However, they were later confirmed as to be not appearing with the writers unbale to justify a robot that would pretend to be a dinosaur[insert orci ref].[[User:Oosh|Oosh]] ([[User talk:Oosh|talk]]) 23:17, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

== The Fallen actually confirmed? ==

I'm a little skeptical about the Fallen being "confirmed" by Simon Furman at SDCC. He's had very little input in the movie franchise, so why would it be any different in this case? Considering the false info-leaking policy, I'm not buying this just yet. [[User:AristosRietze|AristosRietze]] ([[User talk:AristosRietze|talk]]) 21:43, 28 July 2008 (UTC)
:Right... so the guy who is writing the comic based on the film is wrong. Read your sources. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 13:49, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
::Where did I say he was wrong? I said he didn't have a ton of input in the film franchise (I should have said the first film, as opposed to franchise), but really, he didn't - excluding the UK Magazine comic (not canon) and the prequel comic. Saying something like The Fallen is definitely the main villain at something like SDCC - where it was first confirmed - is a perfect way to put people on the wrong track. Good enough of a reason for me to take anything said with a grain of salt. Chris Ryall having confirmed it further, as well as saying TF: Destiny will flesh out the obscure character's background makes me somewhat more inclined to take it as true, however (and this was put on news sites earlier today, before I started the discussion).[[User:AristosRietze|AristosRietze]] ([[User talk:AristosRietze|talk]]) 22:46, 29 July 2008 (UTC)
:::And just to further my original point: Michael Bay has confirmed that much of what's been leaked about the movie thus far is false. So yeah, I wouldn't go about confirming The Fallen as a character just yet. <ref>http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=44729&postcount=2</ref>[[User:AristosRietze|AristosRietze]] ([[User talk:AristosRietze|talk]]) 19:56, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
::::Again, Furman and Chris Mowry has confirmed the Fallen is in the film. Now stop denying it: they are writing the comic book prequel and adaptation. [[User:Alientraveller|Alientraveller]] ([[User talk:Alientraveller|talk]]) 14:57, 1 August 2008 (UTC)

== Mark Ryan ==

The cited article for Bumblebee's voice doesn't confirm that Mark Ryan is voicing him, merely that he's done some studio work. Strikes me this cannot be considered as fact. <small>—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/80.195.151.245|80.195.151.245]] ([[User talk:80.195.151.245|talk]]) 12:42, 31 July 2008 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:Ryan: "I can confirm that I am working on ''Transformers 2:{{sic}} Revenge Of The Fallen'' and have been given the same job on set, voicing the Autobots for the actors, and have already done some voiceover work in the studio as well. It’s a privilege to work with the cast and crew again, it's very exciting and we are having a great time." This doesn't indicate at all that Bumblebee has been recast.

I am nominating this article for A-Class review because after some time since the movie came out, the article has achieved a certain state of maturity which I think entitles it for A-class status. uKER (talk) 05:27, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Budget

[edit]

Template:Infobox film says not to cherry pick budget figures. The budget is listed as $200 million based on information BoxOfficeMojo.com but The-Numbers.com says the budget was $210 million.[1] -- 109.78.197.202 (talk) 22:39, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I checked the talk page archive and it pointed to an interview where Michael Bay saying the film cost $194 million [2] -- 109.78.197.202 (talk) 22:51, 8 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I have added the slightly higher $210 million budget figure[3] to the article since no one has provided any reason why it wasn't included before. -- 109.77.194.149 (talk) 18:21, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
