Top Usa Lawyers

Extortion.  Messy divorces.   Nine-figure deals with Chinese media conglomerates.  It's been a hectic year for Hollywood's potential attorneys, who once again gather in THR's pages for the magazine's annual Power Attorneys difficulty.  The women and men on this list manage a variety of cases, from simple talent contracts to complex corporate mergers that take weeks to iron out, but they all have things in common.  All of them love working in the entertainment market.  All of them play a very important role in maintaining Hollywood's wheels spinning.  They're at the very top of the field.  And judging from THR's survey -- they all drink too much coffee (an average of 5.5 cups a day, even if calculations incorporate the man who claimed to down 97 cups).  Beneath, the Power Lawyers of 2017 talk about their biggest cases, reveal their personal political beliefs (only 14 percent think Donald Trump will get impeached) and answer the age-old question, "Which superhero would you want to represent?

Transformers 5 News TF5 #74
Hello viewers, here is some more Transformers 5 news.
1. Collider interviews Lorenzo di Bonaventura
During the Transformers: The Last Knight set visits, press was able to talk to the cast and crew of the film for some details. During that time, Collider interviewed Transformers film producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura, asking him some questions about the upcoming film. We won’t be covering all of the interview, but instead just some parts of it that we think are noteworthy. The full interview can be found up online at www.Collider.com, or across some of their other media platforms :
----Collider: We know that Hot Rod was introduced in this movie, or is going to be introduced. Is there a chance that somewhere down the road that he would take on the matrix of leadership, or that you could see a movie without Optimus being the main leader of the Transformers?----
----Lorenzo di Bonaventura: Well that’s interesting in this movie, one of the interesting things is we question whether or not he would be a leader. So I think on that level, we’re already taking a step in that direction. I think we all revere-it’s sort of like doing a Batman movie without Batman. I find it hard to see him not being a player in it. Does he have to be the central leader player? No, he doesn’t have to be. He doesn’t have to be, and in this movie, we question it, and he questions it. So I think on that level, you’re going to really enjoy that aspect of it, because he’s got a really-one of the things that I really like about him going to Cybertron is he has to ask himself the question of “Was I responsible for this division? Was it my ego that got in the way? Who is my loyalty to?” I think it’s always great when you have a big hero like that really questioning what they do.----
----Collider: The ongoing battle in all of these movies is the Autobots versus the Decepticons. What’s different about the conflict in this movie as oppose to the other ones?----
----Lorenzo di Bonventura: I think the-first of all, we introduce a new villain. A surprise, I think, as you discover who the villain is. So in that respect, that is a very different kind of Decepticon form, if you would. I think that the understanding of the mythology, as you being to unveil it, you’ll understand just how big the jeopardy that we’re going to face is.----
----Collider: If you’re introducing a new villain, is Galvatron/Megatron still around? Does he play any role in this?----
----Lorenzo di Bonaventura: Yeah, Megatron for sure is around. I mean, are we talking about some of the ones that are…----
Lorenzo di Bonaventura motions for one of the staff members.
----Staff: You can talk about some of the new ones.----
Lorenzo di Bonaventura continues his comments.
----Lorenzo di Bonaventura: So if you go back in the mythology, how Transformers were actually created, where did it start, where did they go from being sort of a slave-race to a sentient race-we’re delving into that aspect of the mythology, so the characters that are involved in there are Megatron, before he’s Megatron, Optimus before he’s Optimus, the Librarian, the Quintessons, there’s a whole group of things that have to do with how, in a sense, the Transformers were birthed, and also with how they were divided. What brought up the division, and what were the jealousies involved. So I think on that level, you’re going to deal with things that feel from a stakes level higher, because of the importance of the sort of thought, right? There’s still, of course, the threat to the world and that sort of threat we have, but I that that threat is amplified now, because you’re going to feel why certain aspects of our world, why we’ve been fighting in a sense.----
Early in Lorenzo di Bonaventura’s comments he not only hints that Hot Rod could become a new leader of the Autobots, but he also mentions Optimus Prime returning to Cybertron. We first heard of the idea of that back in TF5 News #42 when www.JoBlo.com released plot details for Transformers: The Last Knight, and they included word of Optimus Prime returning to Cybertron. It is interesting to know that maybe Optimus Prime will question his leadership, and whether or not he was the cause of the Cybertronian division, forming the Autobots and the Decepticons.
Lorenzo di Bonaventura also mentions that a new vilian will be introduced, a new kind of Decepticon. This could possibly be the inclusion of Unicron, Megatron, or something new entierly. Lorenzo di Bonaventura then talks about going deeper into the Transformers mythology, exploring a time before Megatron has become Megatron, and before Optimus Prime has become Optimus Prime. He then name drops The Quintessons, and a mysterious new character known as ‘The Librarian.’ This isn’t the first time The Quintessons have been mentioned, as they were previously talked about in TF5 News #72 when information from the Transformers: The Last Knight set visits started to come through. Could The Quintessons be ‘The Creators’ teased in Transformers: Age Of Extinction? It certainly could be so as The Quintessons were part of the creation of the Transformers in the old G1 cartoon. And could The Librarian be just a code name for possibly Alpha Trion or Orion Pax? Alpha Trion is also from the G1 cartoon, and is said to be the oldest living Transformer. It is also said that he helped lead the Transformers in a rebellion against the Quintessons to free themselves from being a slave-race, and that he helped establish Cybertron. Orion Pax is essentially who Optimus Prime was before he became a Prime, and was often referred to as ‘The Librarian.’ Could we see the origins of the Transformers and possibly Alpha Trion or Orion Pax, or at least a version of Alpha Trion or Orion Pax in Transformers: The Last Knight? It’s certainly possible for Orion Pax since Lorenzo di Bonaventura did mention about exploring Optimus Prime before he became a Prime, but only time will tell.
For the full interview published by Collider, you can head over to www.Collider.com, or see it on one of their other media profiles.
Well that’s all the Transformers 5 news I have right now, and for all your Transformers 5 news, keep it locked right here. And all the Transformers 5 news I have I get from The Ragin Nation
