Movie "TRANSFORMERS" – supported by USAF

A lot of us grew up with the toys,
so this thread is for all reports, pictures and discussions about the movie “Transformers”.
It will be 2007 on screen.

The US Air Force has a new article on the filming at their website. “The F-117s will be pictured prominently in the movie, both as static background and taxiing aircraft,” said Lieutenant Hodge, who has been a fan of Transformers since he was a child. “The CV-22 Osprey is scheduled to make its feature film debut in this movie, along with the F-22 Raptor.” Also featured in the film will be the A-10 Thunderbolt II, AC-130 and C-130 Hercules, C-17 Globemaster III, MH-53 Pave Low, HH-60 Pave Hawk, MQ-1 Predator unmanned aerial vehicle and Air Force One. The filming of the F-22, C-17, Predator and Air Force One will be done at another location.

6/5/2006 – HOLLOMAN AIR FORCE BASE, N.M. (AFPN) — What do the Air Force’s first stealth fighter, a toy that has been around since the 1980s, and a director who loves big-budget, special effects-driven movies all have in common? The answer is the DreamWorks project, “Transformers,” being filmed here.
