Has Transformers 4 Been Shattered?

A leaked call sheet made it out to the internet a few days which had some very revealing information. So much that Paramount quickly censored it all over the internet otherwise I would share it with you now but what the call sheet revealed is something that made nerds squeal everywhere, the Dino Bots are coming to Transformers 4!

That's news that makes my heart just sing and as of recently, a new logo has been spotted adorned a baseball cap on location. The logo still resembles the other with a few minor changes, one, claw marks have been placed on the logo "Jurassic Park" style reinforcing the idea that the Dino Bots will be present and color has also been added, which is the focus of this blog entry. 




The color that has been added is red however reflects the Decepticon logo. What does it mean? Immediately after seeing this image I thought one thing, Shattered Glass.

Shattered Glass is a multiverse story that popped out of Bot-Con in 2008 and best left to the Bot-Con introductory blurb describing such an anomaly.

"On a world known as Cybertron, a ruthless and cruel tyrant prepares his army for an all-out attack. Their destination: a planet rich in resources, known as Earth! Only a small band of rebels stands between this evil warlord and his plans for universal conquest. If these brave soldiers are unable to stop the attack, then there will be nothing to prevent this shattered universe from falling victim to the maniacal Optimus Prime and his evil legion of... Autobots?

This is a truly malformed universe, where the Decepticons are heroic and the Autobots are evil!
Coming this spring, the battle lines will be drawn and a new champion will emerge. A young and noble Decepticon will stand up and fight for freedom, the freedom which is the right of all Transformers! Advising him will be his trusted lieutenant Starscream and his fellow virtuous Decepticons. They will fight to the very last to stop the spread of Optimus Prime's tyranny!"  



That's quite a stretch however propaganda photos have also been spotted on the set for Transformers 4 also which indicate the possibility also, however also show that there is definitely a distrust between humans and the transformers in the new installment, be it Decepticon or Autobot.








So what really happened in what appears to be a 3 year time span since Transformers 3. Are all Transformers hated? Is there really a shift in who is an Autobot and who is a Decepticon? And if so, is Bumblebee the one who will bring hope to what may be a shattered universe brought forth by a rip in space and time via the destroyed space bridge?

Well I may be getting ahead of myself here but the fun is in the speculation. I guess we won't know until more information comes forth.

-Nurd!
