'MiB3' Recycles Bad Guys

There's sort of a seafood motif in the trailer for 'MiB3'. At :20 Will Smith fights a large catfish, at 1:40 Andy Warhol appears, and at 2:08 giant flying ships/creatures that look like horseshoe crabs with jellyfish tentacles attack a city.
















Thing is, the same things were in 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon'. There's maybe a little body work involved, but yes, they're the same things. Need to come up with your own monsters/ships, guys. Just saying.

A 'Dialogue Delivery' Scene From 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon'. Warning: No CGI or Robots. Just Dialogue. Horrible Horrible Dialogue. Wow...It's Bad

Oof. The critics warned us: Anything in 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' that isn't robots fighting/destroying Chicago is bad. Anytime people talk it's laughable. If it ain't CGI-driven, avoid at all costs. They weren't lying.

If this clip is any indication, might be best to avoid all but the 40-minute action/battle sequence that ends the film, which by all accounts is not only state-of-the-art but breathtaking...spellbinding. More than one observer has called it jaw-dropping.

This 'dialogue delivery' including Shia Lebeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Josh Duhamel, and Frances McDormand is bad. Painfully so. You want cover your eyes and peep through your fingers like when you were a kid and the late night movie monster was too scary to look at, except, here, you want to cover your ears because the dialogue being delivered is. Just. That. Damn. Poorly. Written.



Well, in its way that was pretty breathtaking.

Extended 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' Cast Interview

No new footage but good comments. These guys open up a lot more than is usual for these junket interviews. Several good moments. Worth 10 minutes.

One More 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon' Trailer

I was pretty sure they couldn't get better. Was wrong. New footage, couple surprises.

It's Jaw-Dropping. No, Really.




















From AICN's review of 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon':

...in this film – you’re going to see a dynamic to his action that is nothing short of jaw-dropping. I say “Jaw-Dropping” not with any sense of hyperbole – in the last hour of this film you’re going to see shit go down that will physically cause your jaw to drop. Hang open and perhaps end with a smile.

Rosie Huntington-Whiteley on the Cover of Maxim































She answers some tough Transformers questions:

Is Megan Fox’s disappearance explained?
Yes, it’s explained, but that’s all I’m saying.

Is it explained with explosions? This is a Michael Bay movie, after all.
Well, Shia and I are explosive together! The movie begins with us in a new relationship, and then we go from there.

Nice tap dancing. Way to sidestep that persistent reporter.

New Transformers Poster


Love the placement of the license plate


Improved over previous efforts but still looks too painted. Where's the photo-real imagery? Saving that for later, suppose. Roll out the good stuff closer to opening. Okay, waiting...
