July 7, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
David Letterman always manages to come up with some pretty awesome top ten lists, like this one guest-starring Optimus Prime from “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”
Top Ten Things That Sound Cool When Spoken by a Giant Robot:
Film Gecko Giveaway - Transformers DVD
July 3, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
I’m probably more in love with “Transformers” than “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” (read my review here). They’re both rock-em sock-em movies with giant robots, but the first one had more plot and character development, in my view. Well, as much as you can have in a movie about giant robots.
THE DVD: The 2007 action flick directed by Michael Bay centers on an ancient battle between two extraterrestrial robotic clans, the heroic Autobots and evil Decepticons. But the key to who wins this battle is held by a teenage boy, Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf). Also stars Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Rachael Taylor, Jon Voight, and John Turturro.
(”Transformers” is also now available in a two-disc Blu-ray edition. As with the DVD, it includes new deleted scenes and 25 minutes of bonus features; available on June 16 from from Paramount Home Entertainment.)
THE GIVEAWAY: I have FOUR “Transformers” DVDs to give away.
HOW TO ENTER: To enter the contest, simply leave a comment on this post by midnight on Saturday, July 11, 2009. Be sure to include a valid email address. Winners will be drawn randomly. I’ll email the winner for their snail-mail address after the contest ends. Good luck!

Shia LaBeouf, Tyrese Gibson unveil new Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen trailer
May 1, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
Shia LaBeouf makes no bones about “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” being a fun action-flick. He, Michael Bay and Tyrese Gibson unveiled the movie’s new trailer at a special IMAX screening in L.A.
"The movie is not overtly complicated,” LaBeouf says. “It wasn’t built for extreme pontification or self exploration. It’s built for fun and enjoyment and escapism. It’s the only movie that I’ve ever been a part of where you can drive down the street and literally see decals of your movies on other cars."
After the jump, watch the trailer and clip of the stars…
Michael Bay spills on Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen
April 7, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
One of the most anticipated movies of the year is “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” screaming into theaters June 24, 2009. Summer blockbuster!
We haven’t really known much about it, but director Michael Bays is starting to spill details here and there. In a recent interview with MTV, he revealed a few things:
There’s no car chase in the movie. “In some movies, it’s the same action throughout the entire movie. There’s a lot of different types of action in this one, and that makes it interesting."
Sexy Megan Fox lines up Jonah Hex, Fathom
March 3, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
Megan Fox will wow moviegoers in June with "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," but she’s in no way resting on her laurels. The sexy actress is already lining up two projects.
Fox is in final negotiations to star in DC Comics’ "Jonah Hex." If all goes well, she’ll play Leila, a gun-toting romantic interest for Hex (Josh Brolin), a bounty hunter being tracked by voodoo-guy Turnbull, played by John Malkovich. He wants to raise an army of the undead.
Fox is also attached to star and develop "Fathom," another comic-based movie, this one with an underwater slant. The story follows a girl named Aspen who discovers she’s an aquatic humanoid who can control water.
And to think Megan Fox began her acting career on the TV show "Hope and Faith"! Things really started to take off after "Transformers" and her sexy cover photo for GQ last year. I think it set a record for magazine sales.
Are you a Megan Fox fan? I can’t wait for "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen," but mainly because I have a thing for Shia LaBeouf.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen – New Trailer
February 19, 2009 by Jane Boursaw
Looks like more awesome special effects are in store for us with “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.” With a June 24, 2009 release date, the high-action flick is set to be a summer blockbuster for DreamWorks.
Picking up where the first “Transformers” movie left off, the evil Decepticons return to Earth to take Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) prisoner. He’s learned the truth about the origins of the ginormous robots. But don’t forget that in Sam’s corner is Optimus Prime, who joins forces with armies on Earth to battle the Decepticons.
Directed by Michael Bay, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” also stars Megan Fox, Rainn Wilson, Josh Duhamel, John Turturro, and Tyrese Gibson. No rating yet, but I’m sure it will be PG-13. Check out the trailer:
Megan Fox Blows a Kiss at the Chateau Marmont
November 20, 2008 by Jane Boursaw
For my shameless paparazzi video of the day, I’ve got the gorgeous Megan Fox, blowing a kiss at the GQ Party at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood. You can catch Megan in “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen,” in theaters June 26, 2009. Didn’t she say something recently about wanting to do a movie naked? I guess if you look as good as her…!
"Terminator: Salvation" Concept Art
November 10, 2008 by Jane Boursaw
Whoa! Giant robots always look ultra-scary, whether you’re talking about “Robocop” (new movie coming in 2010) or “Transformers.” But I would definitely not want to meet THIS guy in a dark alley — or anywhere, for that matter. It’s the concept art for “Terminator: Salvation” — specifically, the T600, a downgrade from the T800 played by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the original film.
