Thanks to
kidbizkit for the heads up, we have our first look at what appears to be the first poster for the upcoming
Transformers: Dark of the Moon which is set to be released in 3D on July 1, 2011.
And here is what is currently believed to the synopsis for the Michael Bay directed movie which also stars Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, John Turturro, Alan Tudyk, Ken Jeong, Patrick Dempsey, and John Malkovich:
The Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, are back in action, taking on the evil Decepticons, who are determined to avenge their defeat in 2009’s Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. In this new movie, the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There’s new characters too, including a new villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime "Transformers" character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth.
What do you think of the poster? Does Shockwave look as good as you were hoping for? Is "Be Afraid Of The Dark" one of the lamest taglines for a movie ever!? Be sure to share your thoughts in the usual place!
