NEW 3D Trailer for Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Ahhh Transformers. How I want to love you and still, you continually hurt me. It is an abusive relationship we are locked into. My childhood memories clashing with the scarring knowledge that you put robo-balls on Devastator..and were perfectly OK with it. Still, I always look back when you walk away. Still, I will watch you when you come back this June 29th. Oh Transformers movies...let's not fight anymore.



The Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, are back in action, taking on the evil Decepticons, who are determined to avenge their defeat in 2009’s Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. In this new movie, the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There’s new characters too, including a new villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime “Transformers” character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth.

Note the date change...JUNE 29th will be here before you know it!! ..and despite our love/hate relationship, how f'n cool will this look on IMAX 3D?!

Transformers: Dark of the Moon Toy News from UK Toy Fair

More news flooding out of UK Toy Fair at this point, and if you've been watching over the years, you know this is the first year we've gotten so much before the big International Toy Fair in New York! Moonbase2 mentions there were no pics allowed but activated their cyber brains to memorize every detail of the products we are set to get from the upcoming Transformers movie "Dark of the Moon." I don't want to rip all of their news so here are some highlights...

If I'm reading right, there seem to be three main categories..

MECHTECH - featuring attachable, deployable weapons that work in both modes of transformation and supposedly can be used on other figures in the assortment. As usual, you'll get the Deluxe, Voyager, Leader and Ultimate classes (ranging in size and complexity, as well as price for you newbs). The highlight of the line is Ultimate Optimus that comes with a trailer!

CYBERVERSE - This reads like the Legends line, delivering the characters and designs fans are always going berserk over. The mind blowing highlight of this line is the Ark Playset. I'll give you a moment to process this as you realize the Ark is the giant ship the Autobots live in. It's about time Hasbro got around to making a giant vehicle/playset for the Transformers line! There is also mention of an action set assortment of 6 that can connect together with weapons, ramps, gunner stations and more. Could these possibly be add-ons for the Ark? We'll find out soon enough!

STEALTH FORCE - Seem to be the kiddified Transformers with pop up transformation featuring the core characters.

The New York International Toy Fair 2011 starts February 12th, so keep watching as we spoil as much as we can before the big show!

Thor 3D Trailer Hits This Weekend

It seems logical that the new Thor 3D trailer will be tacked to the front of Narnia, especially since that film is in 3D as well, so consider this your heads up. The trailer has much of the footage from that leaked reel we saw floating around after San Diego Comic Con with SHIELD Agent Coulsen questioning the man who took apart his men as if they were second rate security guards with images of him doing the deed flashing about. "Where were you trained?" We flash to Asgard where Thor is getting a tongue lashing from his father Odin who calls him a boy and remarks that he has brought war to their peaceful land. Flash to a pack of bad ass looking Frost Giants on the march. Flash back and Loki attempts to lodge a protest to Thor's punishment but Dad won't hear it. The sentence is passed and we flash to Natalie Portman AKA Jane Foster showing concern and then to Thor, flat on his back, who says something like "Nooo...I'm on Earth, aren't I" with disdain in his voice. Idris Elba as Heimdall gets a fair amount of flash time as well, though it's nothing but him making faces and such. We also see a couple of Asgardian ladies, one of which being Jaimie Alexander as Sif. Some quick Frost Giant battle rounds out the excitement, some explosions go off and we see Destroyer is causing chaos in the middle of it all. So that's about it! You'll mainly want to see this to ooo and ahhh at the footage in 3D and of course...FROST GIANT RAMPAGE!! Hit the movies for this and the new Transformers: Dark Side of the Moon..umm..I mean Dark of the Moon..teaser..also in 3D.. and then feel free to vacate unless you are a glutton for the same old Narnia punishment. Maybe they'll let you watch the trailers for a fiver?

UPDATE: Make that 2.50 -
