The German NEST video that shows the army swooping in on Scavenger’s (or Demolishor) position at Bethlehem Steel is now available in it’s original English form, for all to enjoy (although this time there are Japanese subtitles):

Thanks Kyle and Rumah!

As expected, the cast of Transformers 2 are appearing left, right and center as part of the Revenge of the Fallen press explosion. Here’s a quick round up of the articles and features we know about.

Megan Fox and Optimus Prime in EW

”If I’m still making Transformers five years from now, I might not be so überexcited. But there’s nothing specific that I need to accomplish. I just want to still be working.”

Warning: do not try getting your hair caught up in barbed wire at home.

”People are well aware that [Transformers] is not a movie about acting. And once you realize that, it becomes almost fun because you can be in the moment and go, ‘All right, I know that when he calls Action! I’m either going to be running or screaming, or both.”’

Transformers turned you into an overnight star. Looking back, how do you feel about the movie?
I’m terrible in it. It’s my first real movie and it’s not honest and not realistic. The movie wasn’t bad, I just wasn’t proud about what I did.

What was it like the first time you worked with him?
I was actually an extra on Bad Boys II [in 2003]. There’s a club scene, and I was one of the club kids. I was in a stars-and-stripes bikini and a cowboy hat, dancing under a waterfall.

You’re a bigger star now than when you did the first Transformers. Did they beef up your role in the sequel?
The humans are still secondary to the robots because it’s a movie about robots. I feel like the part is adequate. I feel like we do something that’s watchable on our end and then ILM makes it phenomenal.

You don’t sound convinced that this is the greatest movie on earth.
It’s not trying to be the greatest movie on earth. It’s going to be the best action movie of the summer. Hands down, it will win that. But it’s not trying to be a Golden Globe-nominated film. It’s a badass popcorn summer movie.

You up for a third Transformers?
Sure. I mean, I can’t s— on this movie because it did give me a career and open all these doors for me. But I don’t want to blow smoke up people’s ass. People are well aware that this is not a movie about acting. And once you realize that, it becomes almost fun because you can be in the moment and go, ”All right, I know that when he calls Action! I’m either going to be running or screaming, or both.”

Shia and Megan talk trilogy with MTV

Megan Fox on Transformers 3

“I’m really happy to have been a part of these films, obviously, and if they wanted me to come back for a third one, I would. I owe them,” she laughed. “I owe them my career, really.”

Roberto Orci on Transformers 3

“I’d like to see some version of Galvatron,” said Roberto Orci.. “I would like to see Unicron, too, and really anything that ends in the word ‘ron.’ Dinobots! I think, eventually, the Dinobots are going to have to happen.”

“It’s totally possible that, just for the benefit of ‘Transformers’ to stay cool and awesome, we should have to let new people come in and do it,” Kurtzman said.

Shia on Transformers 3

“I don’t think [we'll make 'Transformers 3'] right away, but I wouldn’t kill it either,” LaBeouf explained, saying that just like Michael Bay, all the stars need a break from the giant robot franchise. “I don’t think we’re going to do one anytime soon. I think we all need a break from each other and a break from the project. We just need to collect ourselves and come back to it. They’re hard to make, man.”

Shia talks Revenge of the Fallen video game

“I’m a gamer. Always have been – always will be. This one looks a-w-e-s-o-m-e! “

An enjoyable spoof video; the special effects behind Megan Fox and introducing Megan Fox vision!

The two videos we showed you just now are named “Drums” and “Stomp”. Next up are three new Revenge of the Fallen TV spots, presumably aimed at kids given their titles and nature.

Let’s roll kids

Team Kids

Lots of new snippets in this one:

I’ve also noticed that the pyramids are starting to look a bit more weird, more artifacts rotating around them and a gaping hole at the top:

Adventure Kids

We’ve got two more TV spots for you, I think these are numbers 9 and 10, named “Drums” and “Stomp”. Updated with higher quality videos.

Drums

Many flashes of new action moments in this TV spot. Including Prime and his swords, Starscream landing at a construction yard, a bit more of the Megatron vs Prime fisticuffs and an explosion with Long Haul in the distance and a wheel flying off him.

Stomp

Optimus Prime fires a missile in slow motion:

The music video for Linkin Park’s single, “New Divide” is now online on MySpace, featuring some new clips from Revenge of the Fallen.

Screenshots

Scorpio has captured some screenshots of the new footage:

The German dubbed footage of Wheelie attempting to steal from Mikaela and being caught in the act is now available in English (with Japanese subtitles). Turns out Wheelie is an incredibly feisty little robot, I’d imagined he’d be quite timid.

First web chat date?
“You’re hot but you ain’t so bright”
“That’s my eye you crazy bitch”

Thanks for the heads up Randy!

Paramount Pictures UK have updated with some interesting and fun Transformers goodies for us to pick out.

Soundwave Satellite mode

The official UK Revenge of the Fallen site reveals Soundwave’s satellite mode in rendered CG form:

And General Tekno over at TLAMB has managed to extract the clean version for us all:

Revenge of the Fallen Robot auditions

Five robot auditions (e.g. a drill and a George Foreman grill) have been posted in jest, the video embedding doesn’t seem to be working correctly so I recommend you check them out on the PPUK site: TF2 Robot Auditions
