It’s the newest fad, and it seems like Michael Bay is now caught up in it too — 3D. Bay, who once called 3D a “gimmick” (before Avatar came out) recently revealed in an interview on Starz that he’s been testing the process to see if it will work for Transformers 3: It’s a process we’re testing [...]

When the Oscar nominations were announced, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen didn’t make the Visual Effects category like I had predicted earlier. (Avatar, District 9, and Star Trek were the three nominees.) But it did manage to grab one nomination, for Sound Mixing, which it will compete for at the ceremony on Sunday, March 7th. Unfortunately, [...]

We’re just a week and a half or so away from the announcement of this year’s Oscar nominations, but there’s already some word on which technical awards Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen might have a shot at. It’s one of the seven movies in the running for Best Visual Effects, a category which will eventually have [...]

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen made the most money out of any movie in the 2009 calendar year. So that means it’s the #1 movie of the year, right? Well, sort of. If you’re counting by what made the most money out of any movie released in 2009, Transformers 2 drops down to #2, replaced by [...]

Empire Online got their hands on a clip from one of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’s special features, a breakdown of the Decepticon attack on a fleet of battleships and aircraft carriers. In the clip, the narrator reveals that they actually did research to check how fast boats of that size can actually sink. Turns [...]

Considering Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is one of the worst-reviewed movies of the year (not a judgment, just an observation), it takes a certain amount of sheer nerve to try to get it nominated for Oscars. Not just Visual Effects or Sound Editing, mind you. It’ll probably be nominated for awards like that. I’m talking [...]

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is selling like crazy. 24 hours after its release on October 20th, it had sold a stunning two million copies. That’s good news for Hollywood, where everyone is perpetually worried about falling DVD revenues (memo to Hollywood: it’s because of Blu-Ray, idiots). A week later, the Blu-Ray and both DVD editions — [...]

The Scream Awards were held a couple of weeks ago in L.A., but they’re not airing until tonight. If you want to catch Megan Fox and Isabel Lucas — both in attendance — check it out on Spike TV at 10 p.m. As we reported the day after the event, Fox won Best Sci-Fi Actress and [...]

The good folks at How it Should Have Ended finally turned their sights on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, and the result is a three-minute video featuring a number of alternate scenes and ending possibilities. I can’t say it’s the funniest HISHE video out there — I’m personally partial to the Superman one and the [...]

The only problem with Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen selling two million copies in 24 hours is that it’s October, and it’ll be hard for the holidays to live up to that standard without a huge release like that. But, of course, Transformers is a franchise, and Hasbro will continue to sell toys and comic [...]

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will finally drop on DVD this Tuesday, October 20th, after its massive $400 million box office run in the U.S. It’s still the #1 film of the year by a margin of about $100 million; second is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince with $300 million. In an interview for the DVD [...]

Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, longtime writing partners and two of the writers on the last two Transformers flicks, were chatting up the press recently because of the release of the DVDs of the two summer movies they worked on: Revenge of the Fallen and one of the year’s other big hits, Star Trek. While they’re [...]

After two Transformers films and nonstop Internet chatter about how hot she is, Megan Fox finally starred in her own film, the horror comedy Jennifer’s Body. And it flopped. Badly. It made $6.87 million this past weekend, worse than Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs ($30 million), The Informant ($10 million) and even the obviously-gonna-tank Love Happens [...]

One of the keepers of Michael Bay’s official site got word on where things stand with the inevitable Transformers 3: I spoke to Michael today and he had a little update on his future projects: He will be meeting later this week with Steven Spielberg, and Ehren Kruger to discuss ideas for Transformers 3. By the end [...]

Megan Fox just crushed a lot of people’s dreams. She told MTV that she would never do nudity. Ugh, never! That’s the last thing I want to see — what I look like having sex. It would take one shot of me not looking good and I would not be able to have sex ever again, [...]
