Transformers 3 Release Date – 2012 Says Bay

Transformers 3 release date
Yesterday Paramount announced that the next installment of the Transformers franchise would hit the theatres on July 1st 2011. Well it turns out that (to quote Cool Hand Luke) “what we have here is failure to communicate”. It seems that the studios think they settled on that date but Bay thinks they settled on a completely different date.

This quote is pulled from Bay’s official website -

Wait a minute! I said I was taking off a year from Transformers. Paramount made a mistake in dating Transformers 3 – they asked me on the phone – I said yes to July 4 – but for 2012 – whoops! Not 2011!!! That would mean I would have to start prep in September. No way. My brain needs a break from fighting robots.

So it looks like we’ll have to hold our breath until 2012 for our next dose of giant robots turning into stuff and/or beating the circuits out of one-another. It’s possible that the studio might hold Bay to their agreed upon date, though it sounds like there is nothing in writing so it seems unlikely.

UPDATE: Bay has now agreed to go with the studio’s choice – Transformers 3 will officially be released 29th June 2011. With some 3D and IMAX screenings from 9pm on 28th June. That’s final.

    You idiots there on top, the only thing that will happen is the magnetic fields are going to flip. There will be electronic disturbances for that day. (Dec 21 2012). Look it up. The world wont end. Just disrupted for 24 hours.
