More about the Transformers movie

One reason I can’t wait to watch the upcoming Transformers movie is that I’m excited to witness the Camaro square off against the Mustang.

Directed by Michael Bay with Steven Spielberg acting as executive producer, Transformers the movie stars:

Shia LaBeouf as Sam Witwicky

Megan Fox as Mikaela, Sam’s love interest

Peter Cullen as the voice of Optimus Prime: Leader of the Autobots

Hugo Weaving as the voice of Megatron: Leader of the Decepticons

Josh Duhamel as Lennox: Captain of a Special Ops team in Qatar

Tyrese Gibson as Epps: a combat controller

Zack Ward as Donnely

John Turturro as Simmons: Head of Sector 7, a secret government group

Keith David as the voice of Barricade: The Decepticon hunter who masquerades as a police car

Jon Voight as Secretary of State Keller

Kevin Dunn as Sparkplug Witwicky: Sam’s father

Julia White as Mrs. Witwicky

Rachael Taylor as Maggie

Bernie Mac as Bobby Bolivia

Travis Van Winkle as Trent

Anthony Anderson as Glenn Ross Dygert

Glenn Morshower as Colonel


No Angelina Jolie or George Clooney there, but this is a robot flick after all. You wouldn’t want to spend all the time in the movie wondering where Ms. Jolie is underneath all those sheetmetal would you? It would be no doubt easier to see beautiful Ms. Jolie replacing her car’s Mercedes shocks in her heels, in the middle of traffic – in another movie.

Now back to the Transformers movie. As to the battle, Camaro will be played by Bumblebee, the affable ex-Volkswagen Bug that counts himself among the Transformer's do-goody fold. However, Mustang will be played by Barricade, an evil Decepticon, with the message "To punish and enslave" tattoed on his fender/shoulder. Let’s see who will reign after watching this Camaro vs Mustang battle.

Transformer has a release date of June 29, 2007 in the United Kingdom and Australia, July 2 in New Zealand and July 4 in the United States and Canada.
