Michael Bay Storms Bethlehem (Pennsylvania)!! + Optimus Prime = "Offensive" In Britain!!


Merrick here...


tn sent in some atmospheric photos from last night's TRANSFORMERS 2 shoot. A gargantuan steel mill (HERE) has been re-purposed to present some sort of Chinese complex for a pivotal scene in the film.

Love the image of the train rolling through...could look bad-ass on the big screen.



SOME IMAGES ARE EMBIGGENABLE!!






Finally, I thought you'd enjoy this article about a dude who got hassled in London's Heathrow airport because his TRANSFORMERS T-shirt was considered "offensive".

'It's a 40ft tall cartoon robot with a gun as an arm. There is no way this shirt is offensive in any way, and what I'm going to use the shirt to pretend I have a gun?;

...says the man who donned the controversial threads.

Read more about it HERE.

Maybe the Brits weren't fans of the re-design?
