New Transformers 2 Pics And Bits!
Empire Magazine and USA Today have teamed up to bring us a sudden onslaught of new photos from Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen. In terms of actual information, though, USA Today comes out on top with these few gems of the plot (possible SPOILERS, depending on how much you care about the plot of a robot-fight movie):
This time, the story finds Sam and Mikaela under attack by the evil Decepticons because of something Sam has learned about the origins of the Transformers and their ancient history on Earth.
To acquire this knowledge, the invading Decepticons need to capture Sam instead of kill him. Meanwhile, the U.S. military and an international coalition has united with the good-guy Autobots to fight back the villains’ attack.
Some of the most important newcomers are in the robot cast: Decepticons Soundwave, a fearsome communications expert, and Devastator, whose arms and legs are built out of other Transformers. And on the Autobots’ side is Jetfire, a villain whose age and broken-down physicality leads him to help the Autobots.
“It’s not Shakespeare,” LaBeouf jokes.
First hint it wasn’t Shakespeare: Shia LaBeouf is starring in it.
Second: Giant robots.
Though we think Shakespeare really could have been ahead of his time with a giant robot play.
You can check out the Empire article (mostly about the military) HERE, and you can read even MORE about the military at the USA Today Article HERE.
Did we mention the military is helping? ‘Cause they are.
