Notes
- He and his children are fans of The Transformers cartoon and toys. It was his idea to have the first film focus on Sam Witwicky and Bumblebee's friendship, whom Spielberg described as his favorite Transformer on the film's DVD: this "boy and his car" approach was what attracted Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman to write the films. Spielberg gave feedback on each draft of the script. He has also been responsible for shepherding Shia LaBeouf to stardom, and firing Megan Fox.[2]
- Spielberg previously partnered with Kenner on the Indiana Jones and Jurassic Park toylines.
