IN THE TF4 MOVIE, OPTIMUS PRIME IS SAD; VERY SAD... READ TO FIND OUT WHY!!

Today I'll focus on a humorous poster featuring Optimus Prime from the forthcoming Transformers Age of Extinction movie, which should be arriving later this year in June 2014. I basically utilized an untitled movie poster to create something that has been echoing in my mind for over a year.
Clearly, even Optimus Prime feels the need for a change, specifically a change in the direction that the TF movies have taken over the past 5 years.
 
As a director, Micheal [KaBoom!] Bay has a certain style; a signature that runs through his movies. And the thing is, after a complete movie Trilogy, it would have been wiser for Hasbro and Paramount Studios to just hand the Transformers movie franchise over to someone else. But now, egos come into play; and Micheal Bay probably feels like the Billion-dollar TF movie franchise is his successful baby, something that he created, and something that he just doesn't want to let go off.

But the thing is, the Transformers, and their countless fans both young and old, have been around Loooooong before Micahel Bay ever hit the scene as a director.

So now, consider the math:
Weak / silly plot + Big Explosions + Already Famous Robots = Huge Box Office Success.
 
And whether Michael humbly admits it or not, any descent director with a flare for fusing action and drama could have created a blockbuster TF movie, because the fans came out in the millions to see their childhood fantasies brought to life. When the first TF movie came out, we all wanted to see the Robots In Disguise, and not "Sam Whit-wacky" or whatever the hell his name was. Plus I could have sworn that the Autobots befriended a little boy named SPIKE not Sam, in the original Transformers G1 cartoon series from way back in 1985 or so.

But Hasbro also cut a rather greedy / money-saving deal on the production of the TF4 movie, since it was rumored that Michael would direct it for between 20 - 30 million dollars less than its predecessor, Transformers 3: the Dark of the Moon. I wonder why Michael Bay couldn't have saved that sort of money in the production of TF3; and now he plans to save that money in TF4, a movie that should logically cost more than its predecessor so that it can be better...

All right, I've ranted enough for one day. Check out this other article for more Cool Transformers 4 movie posters: HERE

UPDATE ON DSNG BOOK 12 FROM MR. DSNG!

All right guys, sometimes we make our plans with set dates in our minds... and then life throws a freakin' monkey wrench at you that gets in the pistons and messes up everything. You know how it is...
So I'll get to the point. I had planned a brief 350-pager as DSNG Book 12, which would help me tie up a few loose ends in the story line, so that I can start afresh with another 12 Books.
But alas, what was slated to be 350 pages turned into a 800 pager.... Oh lawdy, lawd....

Therefore, I had to drastically alter my plans for the end-of-April release, so that I could either tidy up this Book 12, or just break it up into two new books, since that's just too freakin' long in my opinion.

Most of the DSNG fans know that the Mature stories that I write are full of action, drama, comedy and romance, so I don't fill up my books with pointless fluffy stuff  [as some authors do].
And while writing the latest Book 12, I was getting inspired; hence I kept writing.

My books usually range from 400 to 650 pages in MS Word, double spaced. And some books tip over the 700 mark, like DSNG Book 11 - which was about 750 pages long. And the Amazon Kindle gatekeepers were glad to charge me a delivery fee for my large uploaded book file, since there were also some additional character pictures included at the end of the book :)

Anyway, the latest action-packed adventure is being reviewed and that takes time. Hopefully, by the end of May 2014, all the reviews will be done; so stay tuned for more unpredictable stories involving Prince Azzar and his associates!!
AND HAIL HYDRA!!! GODDAMN IT!!!  :)
