The Question: It's known that Michael Bay has shot flashback sequences which depict one of Adolf Hitler's English fortresses in World War II. So, everyone wants to know but nobody wants to ask: are we getting Nazi Transformers or not?

The Likely Answer: Bay has promised fans that the film won't disrespect war veterans, but it's also easy to suspect he's got a more liberal definition of the word "disrespect" than many.

Why erect giant Nazi banners on the UK set for a single establishing shot of Churchill's estate? It seems more likely there will be a Transformer brawl outside of this building, and while the Transformers surely won't be wearing Nazi paraphernalia, there will still be enough interaction with history here to make a lot of people deeply uncomfortable (and others merely amused at the absurdity of it all).
