However, fans of the original cartoon series and animated movie were never really happy with what Paramount kept putting out. The Transformers live-action films were big screen spectacles and earned major box office cash with the first few installments. The studio seems to be going back to earn the respect of the hardcore fans that have been there all along, but were dissatisfied with the way that the live-action franchise was handled over the years. While the future is uncertain, the hype for Bumblebee is considerable, and could very well see a brand-new direction for the franchise that takes a look at what drew original fans to cartoon and toy line to begin with.
