Still no Megan Fox

Here's a newsflash: Transformers: Dark of the Moon contains a lot of action, destruction and robot-on-robot violence. Of course, what else would you expect from a Michael Bay movie?

The new trailer for the third installment of the franchise caps off a pretty busy week in the trailer world which can only mean one thing, Summer is rapidly approaching. Transformers: Dark of the Moon is poised to be one of the top grossing movies of the Summer despite the universal hatred heaped onto the last Transformers movie.

To be fair, I rather enjoyed the first one, but yes, the second movie was bloated almost to the size of Bay's ego and left a rather nasty taste in my mouth. So, where does that leaves us with the new incarnation? Well, so far, the footage and trailers do look impressive with more focus on the action and less on the tedious words that seemingly always get in the way of such Summer popcorn fare.

Sadly, there's still not going to be a frame of Megan Fox in this movie, but you know that won't stop me from using this picture yet one more time. For now, the jury is out, but I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.

What do you think of the new trailer? Transformers: Dark of the Moon will invade theaters on July 1, 2011.
