Transformers Trailer Leaked, then Released Early

Posted by Neil Miller (neil@filmschoolrejects.com) on June 30, 2006

Sometime yesterday the teaser for Michael Bay’s Transformers, which is set to come out July 4 of next year, was leaked onto the internet prior to its scheduled launch next week. In response to this, the folks at Dreamworks decided to just put the trailer up on the Transformers Official Site a few days early. The teaser has turned out to be mostly anti-climactic, but it will be enough to continue the building of excitement for next year’s release. Maybe I am wrong, but this is probably the number one film that fanboys have been yearning for since the 80s. I know everyone has been anxious for Superman Returns and we all loved X-Men, but Transformers has a huge following; and when you combine that with the team of Steven Spielberg and Michael Bay, the anxiety is only increased ten fold.

If you would like to watch the trailer just click here or click the poster to the right.

If you are looking for some more news and whatnot on Transformers, here are a few links:

• JoBlo’s Preview Page (a 9.2 on the Popcorn Meter! Wow!)
• Rottentomatoes.com, as always, has solid coverage.

That should be all you need for the moment, I will update with anything new that should arise…
