I'm Hyped for the Next Transformers Movie, But This One Choice is Questionable
With G.I. Joe's cinematic run paling in comparison to Transformers', a crossover doesn't seem like a well-earned match.
At the end of the last live-action Transformers movie, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts, a massive hint at the future of the franchise was dropped that set social media on fire: a crossover with the G.I. Joe franchise. It could have been one of those setups that never come to fruition, but the crossover has since been confirmed. Lorenzo di Bonaventura, in an interview with Collider's own Steve Weintraub, states that the next live-action venture for either franchise will, indeed, be that crossover. There's certainly great interest in it, and there is precedent for the pairing of the two blockbuster franchises (Marvel had a crossover series in 1987). But is it what the franchise needs right now? Is it what either franchise needs right now? The answer is a definitive, albeit disappointing, no.
