JustJared posted images from the set, showing LaBeouf's character Sam looking very badly burned and bandaged.
That's probably why he was able to return to work sooner than expected...
Meantime-sequel co-screenwriter Roberto Orci chated with TFW2005 about how the film's progress and what to expect:
"The first movie is all about the mystery and reveal of the Transformers as a concept and a species, which means we had to hide them a lot in the first hour. In the second movie, now that everyone believes in the universe, we can jump right into the world of the Transformers. The first movie was meant to be somewhat of a mystery. For the sequel, we need an entirely different structure and paradigm for the movie, and we can't rely on it being the first."
More lighter moments - "We were emulating the style of movie from the old Amblin days, like Back to the Future and Gremlins. Also, comedy makes things more accessible to a larger audience."
On Shia, Orci says "Luckily nothing has to be reshot. Yes, we were on set last week to write it into the movie, not because it's absolutely necessary, but more because we want to make sure Shia's hand is protected for the remainder of the shoot."
The film is going to have about the same runing time and a PG-13 rating as the first, but will have more of a global feel, will be darker, and will incorporate several things they wanted to do in the first film but dropped due to budget limits.
Uh, ok How can you have it both ways with the tone of the pic. Dark or light?
Publicity will begin in November and a teaser trailer will be out before we are out of '08.
