    TRANSFORMERS
    – October 16th

    Wow. Talk about fast! Released in July, out on DVD in October- this might be a new record for turnaround time. Especially considering the massive size of this blockbuster. Lotsa features, lotsa stuff you’d expect from a Michael Bay set, if you dug this trash in theaters, you’ll likely start to speem now in anticipation. If you’re like me, this is just another item you can use for target practice with your new shot gun. Either way, have fun.
