After making three Transformers movies in a row, Michael Bay has himself admitted, “I’m not sure what I’m doing.” His ears now constantly ring with a vaguely robotic din; his eyes are tired and strained from trying to follow so many CGI metal shards; his brain is mush, puréed by the malfunctioning blender that is a Transformers action scene; he wakes up every night to screams, Shia LaBeouf’s phantom cries for “OPTIMUS!” interrupting his once-blissful, explosion-filled slumber. Michael Bay knows it’s time for a change. Change like… another Transformers movie, but maybe this time with different human placeholders shouting things? Yeah, that works for Michael Bay.

So, once he shoots his long talked about, relatively low-budget, based-on-a-true-story Pain and Gain with Dwayne Johnson and Mark Wahlberg playing bodybuilders-turned-criminals, Bay will reportedly be getting straight back to making a Transformers film–but this time with a new story featuring a cast of new actors but familiar, comfortingly-racist robots. What’s more, he’ll apparently have this new Transformer done in a couple summers, as Paramount has already set a July 29, 2014 release date.

Speaking to MTV, producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura used the term “reboot” to describe this planned fourth Transformers, but later clarified that it’s more of “an evolution”–like the evolution of cars from four-wheeled vehicle to upright, bipedal robot. Contrasting this reboot with the recently-overhauled Spider-Man franchise, di Bonaventura made clear that there will be a continuity with the original films, and we can still expect to see such popular cars and trucks as Optimus Prime and Bumblebee in the brief moments when they’re recognizably static on the screen. It will, however, have “a whole new story,” rather than the… uh… currently established motives for all the clanging, whatever that may be. I sort of lost track.

Despite previous reports claiming otherwise, Jason Statham is not in talks to star–nor is anyone else for that matter–and a fifth film has not yet been tacked on to the shooting schedule. According to the ever-patriotic MichaelBay.com, as of now, Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg are finishing up what’s been months of collaboration on “a whole new re imagining of Transformers,” and the hunt is now beginning for a writer to realize whatever this new vision of Transforming is. I’m betting it will involve a hot babe.

On today’s episode of Michael Biehn’s Tales of the Post-Apocalypse, Michael Biehn (Terminator, Aliens) has run out of patience and also run out of budget, forcing Michael Biehn to make today’s episode an anger-filled bottle episode. Basically, this means it does not have a lot of location changes, but it does have plenty of shouting among Milo Ventimiglia, Rosanna Arquette, and whoever else wants to argue with Michael Biehn’s methods of running Michael Biehn’s bomb shelter. How many times does Michael Biehn have to remind these people whose post-apocalypse this is?

Okay, fine. Sadly, there is still no such thing as Michael Biehn’s Tales of the Post-Apocalypse. But thanks to this trailer for Xavier Gens’s post-apocalyptic bomb shelter thriller, The Divide, we can at least all pretend for the duration of this preview. Just like Michael Biehn surely did.

Next week: Michael Biehn addresses concerns about his housemates shoving razor blades under his nails, and Milo eats Rosanna’s canned ham.

Question by ιυсчемма™ ♥ міснаеι јаскѕои ♥: How do you feel when Justin Bieber gets compared to Michael Jackson?
As an obvious fan, I get deeply offended. When Justin Bieber has 45 years of being on top, then they can come back to me. He’ll be forgotten in a year or two, sorry if any of you are ‘Beliebers’ but, yeah. It’s disgusting that anyone can just come along and be compared to him… Next it will be, who’s better, Willow Smith or Madonna? Lmfao.

What do you think? Thanks.

“Now there’s a vagina I’d like to kick. In the vagina…” When Michael Lohan was arrested last night, it was reported that he attempted to jump out his hotel window only to land in a tree. Turns out it’s way more hilarious than that, mainly because he was shit-faced drunk and high on who knows Read More …

No. Spin-offs/Sequels always stink. Just look at Yu-Gi-Oh GX. The only successful spin-off/sequel show was Frasier.

Steven Soderbergh’s long talked-about retirement plans may or may not be happening, but if he does decide to stop making films, at least he can go out knowing he’s worked with pretty much every working actor Hollywood has. The Ocean’s series and the recent, surprisingly-large cast of Contagion covered a lot of ground on that front, and now the director’s newest, Haywire, adds to that credits with Ewan McGregor, Michael Fassbender, Michael Douglas, Antonio Banderas, Channing Tatum, Michael Angarano, and Bill Paxton. None of them are the stars of this film, though. The star of this film is Gina Carano, a mixed martial arts fighter referred to as “The Face of Women’s MMA,” due to her being the MMA fighter you’d feel most comfortable masturbating to. She plays the classic action archetype of a highly-trained special op out for revenge against those who double-crossed her, and she seriously makes Angelina Jolie look like a jerk for even trying to do this kind of thing.
