Michael Bay should really just give it up. He doesn’t do secrecy well. He’s not J.J. Abrams. His attempts at misinformation are badly delivered, easily refuted, and only make him look stupid.
He announced a while back that Megatron would not appear in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen — and everyone immediately called B.S. after pointing [...]
Remember when Michael Bay said Megatron definitely wasn’t going to be in Revenge of the Fallen, but toy box art clearly showed he was lying?
Further proof comes from two separate sources this week. The first is from screenwriter Roberto Orci himself, who flatly contradicted Bay by saying on a message board “Megatron returns! Keep it [...]
Another week, another batch of leaked toy images. This time we get the robot modes of Jetfire, Sideways, and Rampage:
Jetfire’s gigantic jaw is a little bit annoying, but I think the other two actually came out quite well and should look pretty cool in the movie.
Comingsoon.net has a full gallery of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen tie-in toys — most of which are cooler than the Shia LaBeouf doll to the right. (Hey, where’s the Megan Fox action figure?)
The designs for the Transformers, as we’ve already seen, are definitely busier than the blocky toys of old, which isn’t really a [...]
We’ve hinted before that Revenge of the Fallen will contain the Devastator — a gigantic Transformer made from the combined already-gigantic Constructicons. Thanks to a Japanese company releasing the box art from toys not yet released, we’ve got a pretty good look at him:
Empire nabbed the first look at the revised Soundwave Transformer, as he’ll appear in Revenge of the Fallen, and Transformers diehards might not like the changes so much. He used to be a stereo…and now he’s some kind of jet. Well, the name still almost makes sense.
The new Soundwave:
The old Soundwave:
Aw, the old Soundwave could [...]
I guess this is one of the pitfalls of leading a franchise that was, no negativity meant, only ever created to help sell toys.
Transformers director Michael Bay told Empire Magazine recently that Megatron would not, he promised, be in Revenge of the Fallen. And “that’s not misinformation.”
Thanks for being straight with us, Mr. Bay…except…Slashfilm just [...]
Pictures of the new Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen tie-in toy below popped up on Transformers.MovieChronicles.com. The car is an Audi R8, but there’s some confusion over which Transformer it is that it morphs into; in their video review, they suggest it might be Barricade, although it could also be brand new. Either way, I [...]
