Peter Cullen: Two More Transformers Movies

According to TFormers.com, during a Q@A session at Anime Matsuri (I guess a convention), there are plans for at least two more movies. Part of the reason is because of the cost of the CGI development for the Transformers designs. Bay has previously commented on sequel plans and Shia has already confirmed he was signed up for at least two sequels, so it makes since to do the same for the voice of Optimus Prime. Really, to me anyway, this isn't really news as it has already been known that Transformers was being prepped as another franchise for Dreamworks. You don't drop $150 + marketing on a movie without hoping for future sequels. Of course all the hope and contracts in the world are not going to guarantee a sequel unless the audience shows up at the theatres. If opening week is as solid as everyone hopes (probably $100 million first week) then a sequel will be a lock.
