Oct 1 2009Save the Date: Giant Robots Fighting Each Other Again July 1, 2011
If Transformers 2 left you wanting to see more robot stereotypes, explosions, and general mechanical nonsense, make sure your mom can drive you to the theater July 1, 2011 (you can't drive, silly 10-year-old), because that's the next time Michael Bay will cough up a few reels of CGI and sell it to you for $12. From the BayBlog:
Well its official: We have a great Transformers 3 story. The release date is now July 1st 2011. Not 2012.Today is Day One. This morning started with an ILM meeting for five hours in San Francisco. Currently I'm flying with writer Ehren Kruger to Rhode Island to talk to Hasbro about new characters.
P.S. Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture. Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you.
Is the postscript meant as some kind of strange flirting he posted under the assumption Megan Fox actually reads his blog? That's kind of sad.

I wish like hell they would replace Megan Fox with Scarlett Johanson or Jessica Biel. Megan Fox is pissing people off. Anyone see SNL last weekend? She's done, done, done.

Hey do movie execs read this? WHY NOT?!
Because it WASN'T F@CKING MEGAN FOX THAT DREW THE CROWDS AND BROUGHT IN THE CASH. IT WAS THE DAMN ROBOTS.

There's robots in that movie? All I saw were boobs.

I don't think it matters. The movies don't need a cast or even a script as has been proven. All they need is GIANT ROBOTS, THATS RIGHT, PEW PEW PEW!!!

1.) Could we please have is ALL in IMAX this time? The IMAX scenes in Revenge of the Fallen were stellar!
2.) Megan Fox is a vapid cum dumpster. She is this generation's Lori Singer, and no one will remember her 10 years from now. And she's a butterface to boot.

Robots, explosions, and extremely juvenile humor? I'll have 20 tickets for Transformers 3 please.

Already damn....thats positive news, the last one was extremely successful so this is expected...

"Well its official: We have a great Transformers 3 story. "
yes... I'm sure you do. Bay is really becoming the next Hitchcock, isn't he? With his sheer sophisticated humor, killer robots that touch our hearts, and those Oscar nominated explosions... (it would be a SHAME if he died in one of them)
I guess we have to assume that Shia ladouche will also be returning... i don't know why but i just hate that kid... he's just so- URGH!

I enjoyed the movies so far because I watched them knowing they would be ridiculous and not story driven but idk if I could take another one. I'm getting to old to force myself to enjoy movies.

I totally read that as "I promise no alien robots will HUMP you in any way..." and for a second I was like, "Wow, he's acknowledging that the part of the last movie where the little robot is humping her leg was goddamn stupid. Maybe Bay is aware of how shitty it was, and he's planning on improving." But no, it was just wishful thinking. I wonder how much humping will be in the next movie? Can he beat two dog humping scenes and one Megan-humping scene? Oh the anticipation!
I just watched Bad Boys, and it made me realize how bad Transformers 2 was, EVEN FOR BAY.
