TF4 to Destroy Chinese Landmarks

According to The Inquisitr, Transformers 4 will involve the destruction of some famous Chinese landmarks. Those included are the Pangu Plaza, the National Stadium and the Beijing National Aquatic Center. The Autobots and Decepticons will be fighting on top of, inside and around the damous structures.

The Inquisitr:
"The director also wants to feature both the National Stadium and the Beijing National Aquatic Center in Transformers 4. The website states the movie’s giant robots will be fighting in, around, and on top of these structures."

TF4 Title Rumors Are False... What?

Michael Bay made a post on the S4TE forums saying that the title rumors seen on multiple websites are indeed false. What? What rumors? What title? This makes no sense. After searching the web and finding absolutely no rumored Transformers 4 titles, Nelson, the admin of S4TE, sent me a link to one website that mentioned Transformers: Rise of Galvatron. First of all, this was only one website, not multiple ones. Secondly, I have never even heard of this website before. I don't understand Michael Bay's concern over this. It's interesting that Bay addressed something this miniscule. What do you think about this? Comment below!

"There are rumors flying around from various media sites about the title of the next Transformers.
I wanted you to hear from me directly that we have not yet chosen a title and anything being reported is absolutely not true.
When we have a title to announce, I promise you will hear it from me first."

TF4: Lucas Black and Human Character Names

By taking a closer look at the photos of the Transformers 4 set taken by Jason Bo, you can notice some interesting details many might not have noticed. One is that in the set of photos, it looks like Lucas Black, who starred in The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift, is dressed up in a military uniform. Another interesting thing is a photo with the names "Tessa" and "Shane" on a wall. Shane has been seen on the door of the rally car, which could mean that Jack Reynor's character is named Shane. This would leave us to believe that Tessa is the character played by Nicola Peltz. Another photo has two more names on a wall: "Savoy" and "Lucas". Lucas could be a confirmation that that is indeed Lucas Black on the set and Savoy might be the last name of another actor. Possibilities are Suzanne Savoy and Katie Savoy, the only well known actors with that last name.

TF4 Hi-Res Photos From the Set

Thanks to Jason Bo, we have some awesome high resolution photos of the Transformers 4 set in Taylor, Texas. I've mirrored some below but click here to view the 100 or so he has on his flickr account.
 

TF4: Photos of Taylor, Texas Set

A ton of photos from various sources have popped up from filming in Taylor, Texas. Photos include cast members Mark Wahlberg, TJ Miller, Jack Reynor and Nicola Peltz as well as the Chevy Sonic and the set as a whole. Notice on the photo of the rusty truck that there is a hole on the door in the exact shape of the Autobot insignia.
 

Bay Addresses Transformers 4 Fire

This goes to show that small town news stations make a wildfire out of a campfire. Michael Bay addressed the fire and apparently unlinked injury on the S4TE Forums early this morning.

Shooting of Transformers 4 is going great with Wahlberg and the new cast. We are having a great time in Texas.

I’m reading how the news makes everything more dramatic than real life. I guess the truth was just too unexciting. Yes there was a small smoldering fire at a house and no, no one was injured during the fire. And no, no one “just narrowly escaped” as the news dramatically states. A crew member though twisted his ankle after falling in a gopher hole on the ranch.

The fire was put out in a brief 15 minutes by a great fire crew on set. It was an attic fire and cause is unknown. No we were not shooting in the attic, we were shooting outside on the ranch.
