Space Coast, Florida updated their Twitter account to let us in on an upcoming shooting for Transformers 3.
“Transformers 3 to film on Florida’s Space Coast! Filming to begin September 2010!”
As we all know, this is where the Kennedy Space Center is.
UPDATE: Got the confirmation from the Kennedy Space Center that it will be the main location for the TF3 Shooting.
Brevard County Film Commissioner Bonnie King tells Central Florida on Demand that filming will last about 8 days in early September. She says location scouts have visited the area for 2-3 days at a time, looking at other areas to shoot. Those include Patrick Air Force Base, Space Coast Regional Airport in Titusville, Merritt Island Airport, Lone Cabbage Fish Camp in Cocoa, and a Cocoa beach house. Scouts also checked out some swamps and went into the woods.
Transformers 3 producers will be looking to cast extras from Florida’s Space Coast as well.

Double post. And ignore that part I said about the chopper.

I'm at Kennedy Space Center right now waiting for Atlantis's launch today (anyone else joining the festivities?).
I saw a helicopter circling around here a while ago, flying sorta low, but that's probably useless info to y'all. Most likely just some sort of observation chopper (it looked just like the TF1 Sector 7 choppers, only red with a white stripe on the tail).

Not sure if this is real but i keep reading on Twitter a certain mention of filming being in Bakersfield, CA this weekend.
From Megan's double.

Given how Bay TF's usually look, Sky Lynx would work best in my opinion. I'd love to see an Omega Supreme, but after seeing Devastator, I just don't think we'll see a robot that big in human proportions in the movies.

If they were recycling footage, they wouldn't have to film anything.
Lock Cade
Interesting… but I thought they were going to be done filming in July or so?

Might also have something to do with the Autobots returning to Cybertron. Rumor is it will play a role in the movie.

Omega Supreme?
Shin Densetsu

Nope. Space Coast Ghost to (Starscream's) Ghost
UltraPrimal
I wonder if they'll be shooting during the BotCon tour.

Been wondering the same thing, and as good as that episode is to me i hope its not a rehash of it for TF3

Please let there be a script, and please, please, please robots in Transformers 3.

With the whole “GO Home Autobot” graffiti and the fact that they are filming near NASA, I think TF3 could have recycled some story ideas from a old G1 episode “Megatron's Master Plan”

This is a fun concept – i like the scale and basic shapes

I'm not getting too excited. Wether this means Bay will do a homage to Astrotrain, Omega or Sky Lynx – he'll completely eff it up like he did Devastator. What a waste of a concept. Seriously! Can you believe that was the Devastator we got onscreen? Could have been so amazing and it was a non-event, that devastated nothing except eating sand and breaking some 3,000 year old masonry.
After TF2's suckitude, I have no faith in Bay – but I still hope smarter people steer him right.

Skylynx god dam it!
Poho
Astrotrain is the only logical answer
Supremus
So now we're getting recycled footage from Pearl Harbor AND Armageddon. Grrrrreat.

I can smell Omega Supreme.
Here's an old sketch of a Crawler/Shuttle movie concept I did.
Might see a fight between Omega and perhaps a Supercarrier bot (Tidal Wave).
It is on the coast after all.
