Oh Marky Mark...
And wth, who keeps watching these movies?
Haha, oh well. This was rumoured, then debunked, then Bay himself said the rumours got him to thinking, and then it just happened. Well, that was quick. I like Wahlberg, more when he's in stuff with a solid script, but he's still pretty fun to watch in a disaster, too. At the very least, he can be a pretty funny guy and I'm assuming that Bay will want him to tap into that given the penchant for humour in the previous Transformers flicks. But that's also the problem: the humour in the previous Transformers flicks.
I am excited about the rumours that this may go off-world a bit and be more about the robots than the people. There's no more Shia Labeouf and his wacky parents, so at least there's that.
