Thank you James Struthers. Thank you for creating such an awesome song for all those boys and girls out there that just want to kick it with Optimus Prime. It must be great right? Sharing an ice cream cone and fishing with your favorite Autobot. Everything is great until Optimus high-fives you in the face and puts you in a body cast only to wake up 10 years later after being in a coma.

Well. Here we have it. A first complete look at Sentinel Prime from ‘Transformers: The Dark of the Moon’. I don’t know what it is, but Michael Bay is really attracted to making Transformers look really old. Considering the hot mess he created with The Fallen and Jetfire in ‘Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen’, you figure that Bay would abandon the whole wrinkly Tranformers idea for the third movie. I guess not considering Sentinel Prime is lookin’ pretty old himself. I do understand Bay is trying to show an age difference between all the Transformers, but come on man. They are all freakin’ old… AND THEY ARE MACHINES! I don’t know if I care anymore. I will watch it when it comes out because I love Transformers (not Michael Bay’s) and I already invested my life into the first two films. Let’s see if Bay will get it right on the third try. I’m putting my money on “no”.

So there is very little that I can really say about this video other that it FREAKIN’ INSANE! What we got here is the original generation one ‘Transformers’ animated to dance and sing to Michael Jackson’s hit song, ‘Thriller’. Simple enough right? Right….? I do have to admit that the animation is pretty solid and smooth, while the CG models are the best you will ever see, it is good enough. I would take these Transformers over any of Michael Bay’s CGI atrocities any day of the week. Whats I noticed when I watched the video for the tenth time is that apparently, Hot Rodimus is the best dancer and singer in the Autobots and when Decepitcon Seekers dance, they become something that is a cross between Energon cubes and a neon light from a strip club. Also, we learn that Shockwave is not much of a dancer or doesn’t give a shit about Thriller cause he just won’t join the fun. What a purple douche… Special thanks to my friend Jerry for showing me this little gem.

IGN has announced that Jagex Game Studio and Hasbro has hooked up to produce a massively multiplayer online game (AKA MMO) for ‘Transformers’. Based on the press release, “iconic Autobots and Decepticons set to battle online in 2012″, Jagex and Hasbro looks to be rushing this game out for next year. I am not sure how well that is going to work out considering MMO can take years to perfect. At the same time, Jagex is known for browser based games, so this might not be a huge MMO that we come to love like ‘World of Warcraft’. This might be nothing more than ‘Farmville’ with Transformers. I’m not sure how appealing it would be to have a Transformers MMO browser based game. It would be too simple and I doubt the action would be that spectacular in-game. I guess, we will have to just wait and see what it is.
Tip: As the title suggests, if you do end up playing this game and Arcee winks at you and throws out a bunch of emotes, its probably some guy.
Well, ever since Megan Fox was booted out of the ‘Transformers’ franchise, people seems to be less irritated by her. Even when ‘Jonah Hex’ became a massive flop, I really didn’t hear that much. Maybe it’s a good thing for her to leave (or booted as I first mentioned) the franchise that put her on the map. Well, regardless Megan Fox is a sex symbol for today’s youth and she is pretty much on every adolescent boy’s bedroom wall and in every adolescent boy’s wet dream. Well, considering she isn’t the blockbuster mega-star she used to be when she was playing “Mikaela Bane” and still randomly spouts stupid stuff that gets printed in all forms of media, she is still a powerful marketing tool for any company. Maybe that’s why famed clothing designer, Giorgio Armani decided to have Megan Fox as the new face of Armani underwear replacing “Posh Spice” Victoria Beckham. Who knows whats in store for Megan Fox in the future. I’m pretty sure it has a lot to do with being half-nekked and nothing to do with a sequel for ‘Jonah Hex’ (oh gawd, please do not let this happen…).

Ah… It makes so little sense, but as an avid follower of everything NASCAR, I can’t help but be intrigued and excited about the introduction of the “Wreckers” in ‘Transformers: Dark of the Moon’. If you are not familiar with what a “Wrecker” is, the Wreckers are an elite commando sub-division of the Autobots. The Wreckers were first introduced in ‘The Transformers’ comics by Marvel and since have seen action in story such as ‘Transformers: Beast Machines’. Of course, in all the previous appearances of the Wreckers, not once were they a NASCAR stock car. Well, at the running of the Daytona 500 last weekend, Team Hendrick Motorsports (team includes drivers such as Dale Earnhardt Jr., Jeff Gordon, and five time champion, Jimmie Johnson) and Paramount put together an impressive display of “Wreckers” at the race. The Wreckers on display were Roadbuster, Top Spin and Leadfoot. It’s pretty cool to see Dale Jr’s 88 Amp Energy drink Chevy Impala decked out with missles and a multi-barrel heavy machine gun. Too bad they can’t drive these during the actual race. That would make it much more interesting to watch.
I’m expecting at least a couple or all the Wreckers to not make it to the end of TF3. Why’s that? Well, pretty much all the Wreckers get killed by Megatron and Galvatron in the comics. I’m just sayin’…

I guess Michael Bay and Paramount is picking their targets when it comes to advertising ‘Transformers : Dark of the Moon’. On Sunday, during NASCAR’s Daytona 500, the newest trailer for Transformers 3 dropped and I have to say, it screamed NASCAR! A little different than the ad aired during the Super Bowl, I have to say, I like this one better. Maybe its the “All-Spark” powered NASCAR race cars (like Jimmie Johnson’s Lowe 48 Chevy Impala pictured above) or just the fact that there was some narrative to the spot versus the Bay-standard “lets blow shit up” promo. I don’t know… Maybe it’s because I like NASCAR and it spoke to me. Does it speak to you?
