A Brief History of the Racist Autobots Exiled from Transformers 3

My heart can’t take all this bad news today! First, Jeff Fahey attempted to drag me out of denial , forcing me to finally acknowledge that Lost’s Frank Lapidus was really, truly dead. (But we didn’t see a body, Jeff!) Now, Michael Bay has revealed that the racist, gold-toothed Autobots named Mudflaps and Skids will not be returning to Transformers 3 after their jaw-dropping introduction in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen . Though I have no doubt that Bay will replace them with something equally mind-boggling, I think we need to pay those two their due first.

REVIEW: Can You Stay Awake Through Nightmare on Elm Street?

The key moment in A Nightmare on Elm Street occurs around the 40-minute mark, not long after Freddy Krueger’s third victim meets his demise. It’s really something, too: A gaggle of lights illuminate cell phone screens around you. Seats groan and bodies rise, silhouettes stalking toward the bathroom. The film’s little-known interactive component has kicked in: A whole audience battles its urge to fall asleep.

5 Miramax Films the Weinsteins Can Remake To Get Out of Hock

By now you’ve heard the feel good story of the week — hey, it was a slow week — that Harvey and Bob Weinstein are thisclose to buying back their beloved Miramax from Disney for the not-so-cheap price of $600 million. Disney has denied this , but were the sale to go through it would bring up at least one question: How the hell do the Weinstein Brothers — the same Weinstein Brothers who barely had enough money to release Youth in Revolt into theaters — plan to pay back their fellow investors (lead by billionaire financier Ron Burkle), who presumably footed a lot of this bill? One word: Remakes! Here now are the five films from the Miramax library that the Weinsteins should seriously consider revisiting.

5 Potential Challenges for Michael Bay’s New Action-Adventure Reality Show

Our new cousin Nellie Andreeva at Deadline reports that pyrotechnically-inclined auteur Michael Bay is shopping around a reality series entitled One Way Out , a lawless game in the mold of Survivor, The Mole and The Amazing Race that “pits ordinary people from all walks of life against each other.” Just what surprises will the Transformers director have up his short sleeve for this one? We’re not sure, so we’ve taken the liberty of suggesting 5 challenges that would perfectly suit a Bay-branded show. (We even wrote him some hosting patter!)

Michael Bay’s Victoria’s Secret Commercial of the Day

This is supposed to be a two week old Victoria’s Secret commercial tat was leaked because Victora’s Secret knows that the Holidays are just around the corner like some kind of rapist waiting to fuck us up against our cars in the parking lot late at night when we leave the office. They also know that their fashion show is hitting soon, which is the only time of year they have TV presence and in order to keep that they need people to watch it so the networks can sell ads, and really anyone who doesn’t watch it has something wrong with them, because an hour of bitches in lingerie walking around is a hell of a lot better than an hour of Everybody Loves Raymond
