Create a Transformers Multiverse Movie Between "Bayverse" & "Knightverse"

The Issue

I am one of many Transformers fans who was captivated by 2018's Bumblebee movie, directed by Travis Knight. This film ignited a newfound passion in me for a new timeline route of the Transformers series that begins paying tribute to the original Generation One (G1) inspiration.

However, the director's decisions to set that movie as a soft reboot of the series, instead of a full reboot has caused and several timeline confusions and continuity inconsistencies, which has led to an even further risk to leaving loyal viewers subsequently alienated and potentially prevented the series from reaching its full win-win potential between critics and audiences alike (Source: Box Office Mojo).  

We believe that the only possible way to fix the long-term problem is to reconnect millions of dedicated fans who have watched and enjoyed the 2007 live-action flagship of the series is to invest in a multiverse Transformers movie, which can give an opportunity for a proper conclusion to the "Bayverse" side of the film series, and simultaneously paves way for the "Knightverse" side, offering a fresh interpretation of the beloved saga. Diverting from the Bayverse connections beyond that crossover point, a commercial success from the multiverse project can lead to have the newer Transformers installments explore additional Transformer factions from other planets and delve further into the Transformers’ origins, including their creator, Primus.

We as the undersigned fans are asking Paramount Pictures, Di Bonaventura Pictures, and Michael Bay to create a comprehensive multiverse Transformers movie, and we can ensure that both sides between the Bayverse and Knightverse is vindicated and every continuity issue within the entire live-action film series is addressed. Let's help our beloved franchise flourish further while retaining the essence of what made us fans of Transformers in the first place.

Furthermore, we want a Transformers multiverse movie to feature some of our favorite human characters return to the series, including Charlie Watson (Hailee Steinfeld), Noah Diaz (Anthony Ramos), Agent Seymour Simmons (John Turturro), Willam Lennox (Josh Duhamel), Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlburg), and Mikaela Banes (Megan Fox), while maybe recasting the role of Sam Witwicky.

As for future Transformers movies, we would also be interested to see the expansion of the franchise's Mecha genre presence by adding human characters performing bonds with Autobots that has the concepts of pilot controlling a Tranformer’s transtectors in addition to having exo-suits (like Noah Diaz resembling Mirage in Rise of the Beasts).

It will take as many of us as fans to bring about change that would undeniably take the Transformers universe to new heights. Please sign this petition to put the Transformers film series back on track with resolving continuity issues.
