AICN has more detailed pics of Prime, as you can see:    Now, the face doesn't bother me as much, because of Best Wars and Primal, I'll buy it. Also, it is no where near as bad as the abomination they call Megatron. The body, on the other hand. The guy on AICN pointed it out, and I can't belive I didn't see it before, it looks A LOT like Megus. Also, not that I was planning on buying them anyway but how exactly do they plan on getting a toy to look like that, let alone transform? Barring any further serious frak ups from Bay and his merry band of idiots, I'm done with this. It isn't Transformers. End of story. |

In other nostalgia-killing news:
Bruce Willis wants to play Lt. Col. John "Hannibal" Smith in the planned A-Team Movie.
The Wayans Bros. are trying to pruduce a movie based on the sitcom The Munsters.
Begin pannicking.

*Winces*
Sorry, Bruce, but you're too much attitude and not enough flair to be Hannibal. (Other than the late, great George Peppard, the only person I can really say making a good Hannibal is Sir Shaun Connery.)

... I'm not so sure Sir Connery could pull it off, either. Unless he learns how to speak in an American accent.

Hey, I didn't say he'd be perfect, but he's still better than Bruce Willis. Connery has the same mix of 'old soldier' and 'rakish young daredevil' that Peppard gave the character. Let me put it in simple terms: I can see Sean Connery saying "I love it when a plan comes together" and it actually working.

Make Prime Speak!Come up with a one-liner for Optimus Prime, and if yours gets chosen, he'll say it in the upcoming (crappy) movie. Let's finish this abonination off by making him say "All your base..."

The Jim Henson company has just been given the green light to begin production on the Fraggle Rock movie. Its producer: Ahmet Zappa.
The son of a stoner is producing a movie based on a stoned puppeteer's kiddy show. And somehow I don't find this odd at all.

Hell, this is probably the best way for it to happen.  |

New trailer for Bay & Co's newest abomination is up, and well... it's a Michael Bay movie. Shit blows up, shots last for a hot thirty seconds (if that), and it's all fast, loud, and stupid.
The designs look like crap, the story would have the original writers laughing their asses off, and most damning of all: they don't make the sound when they convert.
This isn't Transformers.

I'll space it out, to lessen the revulsion.

*Reads Iggy's last post, reads news story, screams, then beings prepping orbital strike on La La land.* The integration between games and movies has grown steadily over the last few years, and now one of the biggest gaming franchises is getting involved. 20th Century Fox will be making a film version of The Sims, reports Variety. The screenplay will be written by Brian Lynch, but it is not yet known who the director or other "talent" involved will be.
The Sims movie will be a "live-action version," reports the newspaper, presumably meaning that it will feature real-life actors and actresses as opposed to animations. It is not known how the producers intend to adapt the life simulation series for movie goers. The feature film project has been set up with producer John Davis, with Steve Asbell overseeing the project for Fox and EA's Rod Humble managing the property for Electronic Arts.
Brian Lynch wrote and directed the movie Big Helium Dog, a 20th Century Fox mockumentary comedy released in 1999. John Davis' production credits include Eragon, When a Stranger Calls, and Norbit. www.gamespot.com/pages/news/story.php?sid=6171544&part=rss&subj=6171544 |
