Screenwriter Roberto Orci has made a interesting post on Don Murphy's message board about Transformers 2 that reads:

I'd love and think we could almost barely manage ten on each side, with some front and center and others as more supporting.

Do you think we'll really see 20 robots in the sequel? Let us know below.

Meanwhile, The Daily Pennsylvanian is reporting that filming will take place on the Penn campus, including a previously-mentioned location. Here's a clip:

University spokeswoman Lori Doyle explained that filming would tentatively begin around June 12 with scenes using the exterior of the Quad.

According to Doyle, the extensive project is expected to involve about 200 people, 25 tractor-trailer trucks and cranes.

"They have their own landscaping people, they bring in their own catering, it's a huge operation," she said.

In addition, scenes will be shot at Psi Upsilon Tau fraternity house, better known as "The Castle," and possibly on Locust Walk and Spruce Street, Doyle said.

20 robots wasn't too much for the half hour long tv show (including commercials)...

as long as it's focused more on the robots, and less on the humans, it won't be a problem at all.

I have a feeling the robots will be secondary considering all the cast is returning and that's how the first one was

Hopefully they will focus more on the robots but with all the cast members returning its looks like they might use some dumb plot on the idiot humans. Well just have to wait till June/09
