I hear it finally comes out next week, in North America. Anyone else confirm this?

Only people who shoulda known better after the 1st time at the cinema...

I would have bought the 3D version, but it wasn't offered when it came out for sale. So I buy the regular Blu-Ray, and what's inside when I open it? A $10 coupon towards purchase of the 3D one! So I'm gifting the regular one to someone else.

Isn't that like gifting them with a broken jaw or kick to the beanbag..?

It is double dipping on the fans.

Of course.

The bayformer fans've already proven themselves to stand for anything Bay and co pull from their bottoms, lap it up and ask for more..

People are already thinking that 4 and 5 are gonna be good.
The studio knows that their investment is sound whatever happens and thats why Bay has been given more work now, after counting the returns.
But ultimately, the fans are seriously the least of their concerns, other than in that they are necessary to the studio to extract cash from.

going from my opinion of his track record for the movies
we are due for another piece of crap and then the next one will be good.
He as done 2 good 3 bad 2 good 3 bad.

2011 Transformers: Dark of the Moon

2009 Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

2007 Transformers

2005 The Island

2003 Bad Boys II

2001 Pearl Harbor

1998/I Armageddon

1996 The Rock

1995 Bad Boys

So you basically saying The Island was crap??

Paramount is making sure this movie gets nomited for the oscars

says its been nominated for Sound Mixing, Sound Editing and Visual Effects.

Wow.

Slow year then, huh...?

Suppose it could get worst nominated for best movie.

Well that'd be tantamount to a full admission of corruption in the industry...they daren't take it that far.

It likely won't win for Visual Effects, because Hollywood has a full out bias against George Lucas and ILM - I think they've only won one Oscar in the past 15 years, for the second POTC in 2006. They SHOULD have won for Transformers the next year, but they gave it to that big disappointment The Golden Compass instead. Whenever they get a chance to pass ILM over, they do it.

On the flip side, the quality of FX by Weta Digital can't be ignored, with several Oscars since 2001. And it's hard to discount their work on Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes, which is probably favoured.

Dark of the moon dominates Razzie nominations

Michael Bay up for worst director award could be his second Razzie for that, last one was in 2010.
