TRANSFORMERS 3 Update... First of all, I am extremely glad that Rosie Huntington-Whiteley will NOT be reprising Megan Fox’s role of Mikaela Banes in Transformers 3, but instead play Carly...who was Sam (err, Spike) Witwicky’s girlfriend and eventual wife in the 1980s Transformers cartoon. The person who confirmed this was Nelson, the webmaster of Michael Bay’s official website. While this is welcome news to me personally, what should be bigger news to the rest of y’all Transfans is the fact that Megatron, Soundwave and Shockwave will be together in the final scene of TF3...wreaking havoc on the city of Chicago (or the fictional city that Chicago will portray in the movie) while new Autobot characters such as Rollbar—the red Jeep shown below—will be helping Optimus Prime and Co. take on the Decepticon trio mentioned above.
In terms of Soundwave, I’m hoping that he has a retractable mouthplate just like Optimus Prime. I like the shark teeth that he will apparently be sporting in the movie (see the pic at the top of this Blog entry), but I’m gonna impersonate a Transformers "Generation 1" (more commonly referred to as ‘G1’) purist by saying that I hope Soundwave’s mouth will occasionally be concealed by some kind of metal shield in the upcoming movie, as it should be. Shockwave looks sinister; here's hoping he acts that way too. I’m also interested to see how much of a bad guy Patrick Dempsey will be in TF3...what with him beating the crap out of Shia LaBeouf and pointing a gun at him (see below) and stuff. Oh, and the NASCAR vehicles seen on set in Chicago will officially play "Wreckers"...who in Transformers lore are a commando unit for the Autobots. Pretty cool. Kinda wish that they were villainous Stunticons instead, but it’s all good.
