Does Transformers 3 Re-Use Footage From The Island?

It’s hard being Michael Bay, what with all the money he needs to count and women he needs to objectify. Plus, one shitty, loud, oversaturated three-hour car commercial is as good as the next, so you can’t really blame the guy for re-using footage from one in another. He’s got robot testicles to design!

Who Knew The Transformers Could Shake Their Metal-Bots To Michael Jackson’s Thriller So Well?

Is it wrong to feel envious of an animated Autobot’s dance moves? I’m never going to feel the same way about the Transformers again. [Technabob]

5-Ton Megatron Tank Hand Built By A Man

A Chinese man decided to build Megatron in tank form (from Transformers). So he did it. And it is ridiculously detailed and just brain meltingly awesome. The whole sculpture (that’s what he called it) weighs just about 5 tons. More pics below. [Zcool via Neatorama]
