It's a new transformer!

You trade in two "racist" autobots and get a jacked up red jeep for TRANSFORMERS 3.

I'm sort of interested in how all this crazy is going to pan out. There's a new chick who looks semi-hot from certain angles, John Malkovich is thrown in the mix, and there's this really insane opening that they want to do inspired by Spielberg. This is just an average day for Michael Bay. The man probably injects himself with snake venom or something. Everything he does is on this massive testosterone fueled scale.

The new autobot goes by the name "Rollbar". He was first introduced to the world of Transformers in 1987 as part of the Autobot Throttlebot Team. Rollbar has sort of evolved and become different things over the years since his introduction. He's also got a bit of an attitude. One of his motto's is, "Front wheel drive is for sissies."

Check him out below.

Extra Tidbit: Sir Ben Kingsley's fake audition for TF3 was awesome.

I bet anyone any amount of money insted of the racist bot twins in the second one, bay will have this one be a redneck. You know it will happen, if not this one the nascar bots will be I fucking guarantee this! I will go one better and say he gets nascar drivers to do the voice of the bots. Remember this post cuz it will happen trust me.

I just hope that they fix the "close up" fight scenes in this one. In the other films, most of the time you can't make out shit unless you go back to it multiple times. Especially the barricade vs. bumblebee brawl in the first.

Looks good to me. But how can a personal get in the car to drive it? That looks very tall. And I still want Wheeljack and Sunstreaker!

Nice to see there toning things down a bit and working on character development in this one. Is the toy gonna come with a can of Red Bull and some EXTREME Doritos?

Jeep!
Too bad they didn't base it after Brawn, seeing as he was the original Jeep Transformer. People are trying to give too much meaning to movies these days that don't need it. Movies are meant to entertain, and I'd say boobs, giant robot fights and explosions are pretty freaking entertaining.

ughh count me out, i've had enough of the Transformers franchise. the first one was decent, the second was horrible, adding more explosions and boobs wont save anything. plus Jeeps are even bigger douche mobiles than sports cars, i feel like i need a Tap-Out tshirt just to make it through this one

Way to stereotype Jeep drivers. Never heard that one before. Actually never really see Tap Out guys driving jeeps.

I'll see it
I enjoyed the first immensely and even liked parts of the second. I say just let Bay do his thing and judge it when you see it.

It's Jethro, the monster-truck autobot. When in full Transformer-mode, he wears a "No fat chicks" tshirt, cowboy boots with the Confederate flag on them, and a large gold belt-buckle shaped like a bull's head. This time around, Bay will exploit white peoples.

that would be cool.. turn it in to a contest of some kind. Kinda how Epic did with Gears in finding COGS around different cities.

It's just more product placement and toyetic opportunities.

Umm.. Isn't that kinda what Transformers has ALWAYS been? If I remember correctly the original G1 cartoon was created AROUND a toy line. One giant commercial. That was no different than this.

Finally an article on transformers about something I actually care about, the actual transformers. I feel the more Spielberg is involved, the better. His presence was felt in the first movie, but I think he was producer in name only on the second. I really hope this next film doesn't suck.
