Brace yourselves, because you are about to read something that positions Michael Bay as both reasonable and perhaps even respectable. Earlier this week, Hugo Weaving revealed that he is yet to see any of the Transformers movies in which he provided the voice of Megatron, and that he considered the gig “meaningless.” He is now the […]

The feature trailer for the third Transformers movie – the Pink Floydian-titled Dark of the Moon – has debuted online. It hints at an incisive commentary on geopolitics and the American government’s relationship with its citizens, as well as a haunting final sequence that evokes Michael Haneke‘s … just kidding! It’s robots punching each other! […]
Continue readingTrailer Debut: Passion Play
The first trailer for the new thriller Passion Play has been released exclusively by Entertainment Tonight. The film stars Megan Fox, Mickey Rourke and Bill Murray in a bizarrely cast love triangle that I have to question whether we really need to see. Fox plays Lily, an angel and carnival side show freak who is […]
Continue readingMegan Fox to join Judd Apatow’s Knocked Up spin-off?
There might not have been a faster decline from ‘It-Girl’ to ‘Punch Line’ in Hollywood history than the one experienced by Megan Fox in the past twelve months. After co-starring in two super–successful Transformers films, the young actress headlined a string of flops, was booted from the third Transformers for being too mouthy, and recently […]

Another day another reboot. Deadline New York has confirmed Tomb Raider is set to return to the big screen in 2013 through GK films. The action-adventure franchise began life as a video game in 1996 and transitioned to film with Lara Croft: Tomb Raider in 2001 as a star vehicle for Angelina Jolie. The reboot […]
Continue readingThe title of Transformers 3 inspired by Pink Floyd?
This is what we call a slow news day. The title of the new Transformers film will be the Pink Floyd-flavoured Transformers: The Dark of the Moon. So, Michael Bay must be a fan of prog rock (but not a big enough fan to know the full title of the genre’s highest selling LP). This […]
Continue readingEven Michael Bay thought Transformers 2 sucked
It seems as if the entire cast and crew of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen are jumping on the hate-bandwagon. Following Shia LaBeouf‘s spray against the film’s quality (or lack thereof), the normally unrepentant director Michael Bay has also admitted that his film basically sucked. In an interview with USA Today from the set of […]
