Yes, the banner picture is the Transformers 2 production logo, and we’re all in favor of it. Nice, simple design, and a banner we can throw up with out Transformers 2 stories without having to drudge up screen caps of the original or those old concept art photos of each transformer.
The production logo was culled from a letter sent to anyone living near Bethlehem Steel where Transformers 2 begins shooting tomorrow. The letter warns that there will be “helicopters, large scale pyrotechnics, prop guns, squibs and large lights.” In other words, they are shooting a Michael Bay movie, so you might want to put you earplugs in for your Sunday evening nap.
Also on the Transformers 2 front, a Pontiac Solstice GXP has shown up on location, indicating that Jazz will be back in the film despite being ripped in half by Megatron in the first flick AND Michael Bay’s assertion that Jazz was dead.
You mean we can’t trust Michael Bay, who already said he is going to personally leak false information? Say it isn’t so!

The WALL-E robot that we are so in love with made an appearance on some local radio show. We still want to know where we can get one so we could play around with it at parties and talk to it when we are oh so alone in the afternoons.

S. Darko, or Samantha D. Whatever you want to call it, the Donnie Darko sequel that managed to nab original Darko cast member Daveigh Chase has added some new female blood to it’s bastardly existence.
Call us short if you want, but it’s our opinion that small creative indie properties shouldn’t be shucked away from their creator without said creator’s permission. But, that’s neither here nor there…

Arson? Forgettable. Celebrity arson? Let’s run with it.
This morning 50 Cent’s Dix Hills, NY house burned down and his girlfriend Shaniqua Tompkins (we swear we aren’t making that up) and their 11-year-old son Marquise were take to the hospital and treated for smoke inhalation.
Which would all be tragic if the fire chief didn’t say that he thought this fire WAS NOT and accident…

If you would have told us that the spoof genre would still be running full steam for 2008 back in November 2007, we would have said: “Watch Meet The Spartans blow hard.”
And it did blow hard. But stoners and bored high-schoolers too high for Prom season brought Meet The Spartans into the box office Valhalla.
Now, Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer ( Epic Movie, Date Movie) have released the teaser poster for their newest spoof effort: Disaster Movie…

Have you heard that James McAvoy is up for the lead in Peter Jackson and Guillermo Del Toros two Hobbit movies?
Where on earth would you hear that?
How about this one: Patrick Fugit (Almost Famous, Wristcutters) or Michael Angarano (Sky High) are on the short list for picking up the role of Peter Parker in Spider-Man 4 (and maybe 5)?
Well, read on, guys. We doubt either of these are true.

Today is the day, male movie fans. The day where, if you are lucky enough to have a special someone, that special someone will bring up the Sex and the City movie.
Maybe you are one of those guys lucky enough to live far away from one of the coasts, so your girl is more curious about fashion, high society and ridiculous middle-aged sex because of HBO and middle-America advertising. Or, maybe you are one of those unlucky guys who happens to be seeing someone in Los Angeles or New York, and your girl is unable to draw the line between snappy ficition and what their lives “should be like.”
Either way, Sex and the City was released today, and for once in our miserable lives, not having a significant other means we’ll be shielded from the blast…
