Its not unknown for scripts to be leaked on the Internet, and that’s something that Bay found out when he made the first film. But, when he was filming the “Revenge of The Fallen” he thought it would be clever to leak “false information”, but that didn’t work out to well. Also, the script for the second film was leaked and that turned out to be fake.
Well, one of the writers for seibertron.com was emailed a possible “Script Treatment” for Transformers 3.
Thanks to seibertron.com for the copy of the email:
“It seems the execs at Hasbro are thrilled that the Transformers movies are making them money hand over fist. But… They are concerned about brand integrity. Just as a Coca-Cola exec cringes every time a can of their product shows up in the wrong place in a porno, the good folks at Hasbro raise their eyebrows when one of their premiere brands has genitals, engages in racial stereotyping, or leg humping, etc.
After all the blowback from the second movie, it seems Hasbro wants to go in a new direction with their signature franchise. Michael Bay highlighted this fact on his own site, citing a five hour brainstorming session with the folks at Hasbro. A session it seems that may have had quite an impact.
“Attached to this e-mail is an early draft of the third film. It came to me through a chain of acquaintances. The intent in our mission was simple, rain on Bay’s parade, yet at the same time give the fans something to hope for after the staggering train wreck of the second film.
Back to that brainstorming session at Hasbro… The suits quite simply wanted to try and recapture the days of old, when the brand could do no wrong. Restore nostalgia, story, character, in short they wanted something of substance, something epic with all the fun inherent to all the animated incarnations. Something to set up the impending 30th anniversary in 2014, a chance to cash in all over again.
Did they get that? Well having read this script, I would say that they’re coming closer to that goal than they have previously. I have to keep in mind that it’s an early draft, and therefore likely to be punched up quite a bit before production begins, but if we get anything resembling the bones of this story, there may be cause for celebration.
Of everything Transformers that has been submitted to the big screen, this offends me the least. There are iconic references, that if they stay in, will no doubt make some very happy. That must have been one HELL of a meeting. Oh, one other thing. There have also been rumors circulating about Megan Fox meeting her maker in the third film. Having read it, I think you’ll see how that rumor got started, you’ll notice there is a point in this draft where she could eat it early on… However she does survive the crisis, and the rest of the story unfolds from there.
If you choose to use this, call me…”

You can read the “draft” at this link: http://tformers.net/pdf/tf-3-script-leaked.pdf.
I skimmed over and read some, but not all. It does sound good, but its most likely just fan fiction. Some poor soul with too much time on his/her hands. But, the script does have Krueger’s(who was a writer for ROTF) on it.
One thing I did like is that it gave Soundwave a bigger role, and even brought in Shockwave. But, the best part about this was that Starscream didn’t seem like a pussy in this “draft”. There was no mention of Unicron, the character everyone is expecting Bay to use. Though, that could be why “he” isn’t in there, because everyone expects the character to be.
However, odds are is that this won’t be legit. So, just take it with a grain of salt.
What do you think? Bullshit or not?
Update: Nelson, Michael Bay’s site admin, posted “Their is a script out there being reported on TF sites as being legit. It’s fake. Amazing that someone would take so much time to write so much for nothing.”
Bay usually writes fake drafts to turn fans off and stuff. I’m not sure but….HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Since I read and get my hands on a lot of scripts, these things usually are fake. But..still!
Guys…LEO is in this draft…I’m not kidding. Oh great.
I’m not surprised(nor happy) that Leo is returning, because Bay already said not too long after the second film was released that he would bring that character back.
True.
But actually reading his pathetic lines was a real let down.
I’m on page 54 (lol). Yeah, the way the plot is this isn’t fake. I’d actually be very surprised if it is.
AARON!
UPLOAD IT TO THE SCRIPTS THING PLEEAASSEEE!
OMG I HAD THE SAME REACTION, WHEN I READ LEO WAS IN IT!!!
Dude put this, Kick-Ass, Lovely Bones and Clash f the Titans.
Thats how we roll. were fucking G.
Im going to keep reading it lmao
THANK YOU MATT, that was pretty raw Mr. Keith.
YES! READ PAGE 37! AWESOME!
Oh my god.
Matt, youre the Man. The Myth.
I canNOT get over how raw page 37 is!
I assume your talking about Starscream and Megatron. Yeah, Starscream got his balls back in this.
omg i was so happy.
You have no idea. I havent been this movie happy since i saw the Spiderman taser trailer in like 2000
Just from that little page, that was so badass.
Good that this one might turn out great. I’m a big fan of the first one but Transformers 2 was a big letdown, I still cannot get over the fact that they killed Arcee just like that[big fan of Arcee]. Anyways………..
Im also a huge Arce fan, but she didnt die.
She just got shot in the face, ONE of her versions
It was never confirmed whether she died or not, but it really doesn’t matter, because “she” was completely useless in that film.
Lol! Well im more then halfway through the Transformers 3 script and shes not in it at all
Page 84. Really good “twist”.
Hey guys, I updated the post stating that the administrator of Michael Bay’s website claims that the script is FAKE.
Yeah no shit they did, its michael bay
“Megatron wont be in it!”
“Itll be better then the 1st”
“40 robots!!!”
It was leaked, of course they disprove of this. They also said the Transformers 1 was fake, and when the movie came out it turned out to be real
the script was so cool.. is it really a fake? too bad.. i was so excited reading it…
Someone on Bay’s forum said it was fake, but I do not believe it.
I read a lot of scripts, and this wasn’t a fake. James doesn’t think so either. It’s probably Bay just trying to make us not read it.

Michael Bay said it was fake.
Um. OF COURSE HE DID.
If the script REALLY was fake, he would have said nothing, as usual.
As soon as a script gets leaked or anything gets leaked, the first thing they do is say its fake and make fun of blogs by saying somethig like “Blogs will say anything” or “people in the internet will say whatever they want”
Him being so pissed and head on about saying its not real kinda proves its an original draft.
Bay is a freaking idiot.
This is the main plot, but since its a draft… theyll modify it slightly
Theres actually a lot of evidence to know that its fake:
1. Not enough military presence for a Bay film.
2. Not enough crude humor for a Bay film.
3. Too much robot interaction. If this film was made into live-action it would probably cost about as much as “Avatar” cost.
4. It was said that when animating Devastator, their computer blew up. So, just think about it if it was two combiners.
5. No Sideswipe, Chromnia, or any other characters that were introduced in the last film.
6.Bay has made it clear he doesn’t really like doing homages, limiting it as much as possible while this “script” is just thick with it.
7. Bay also made it clear that he wants to go more into Sam and Bumblebee’s “Bromance”, and Bumblebee has little presence in the “draft”.
Sorry, but til I see more evidence that proves it to be legit, then I’m just gonna regard this as nothing more than G1 fan’s wet dream.
In ROTF there was no leg humping, or racist autobots or Devastatr with testicles.
All of that was edited. From the original draft.
All the draft does is show the main plot, Bay will always later add his humor and love for Hummers later.
You gotta read the ROTF script… it had like so many other robots and so much dialogue between Optimus and the robots… but that was edited out later
Lol sure but first we kinda have to see your facebook or myspace or twitter (just to kinda know you, a little) or your email address so we can talk to you a tee-wee bit
im at hazmat1367@aol.com email me there
thanks for approaching us Julia =]
