Transformers 3 Has a Release Date

Those of you clamoring for yet another Transformers sequel will be pleased. Michael Bay recently updated his site to let people know the release date.

Well its official: We have a great Transformers 3 story. The release date is now July 1st 2011. Not 2012.

Today is Day One. This morning started with an ILM meeting for five hours in San Francisco. Currently I’m flying with writer Ehren Kruger to Rhode Island to talk to Hasbro about new characters.

P.S. Megan Fox, welcome back. I promise no alien robots will harm you in any way during the production of this motion picture. Please consult your Physician when working under my direction because some side effects can occur, such as mild dizziness, intense nausea, suicidal tendencies, depression, minor chest hair growth, random internal hemorrhaging and inability to sleep. As some directors may be hazardous to your health, please consult your Doctor to determine if this is right for you.

Pain and Gain is right after shooting of Trans 3.

Well, that was quick wasn’t it? You better believe that they want to cash in on this franchise while it is still hot and hyped up.  I’m not sure I will be buying into the hype, as I was let down by Transformers 2 probably more than any other movie this summer. It looks like the new film will have some heavy competition that summer from Spider-Man 4, Thor, Green Lantern, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II, and Captain America. There are even more releases when you look at movies that don’t necessarily match up genre wise. No doubt the movie will be huge.
