Transformers: Dark of the Moon Release Bumped Up to June 29th

The third and final film in Michael Bay's Transformers franchise now has an earlier release date. Now we can bask in the explosions a bit earlier than planned!

As it did with the previous installment, Paramount pictures has moved the release date for Transformers: Dark of the Moon up a few days, so the film will open on a Wednesday rather than a Friday. According to Deadline,

"Early response to footage, especially the 3D footage, has been great so we want to get the word out that this film is as good or better than the first and much better than the last,"


This will allow all of the haters out there to hate two days earlier and the believers to sit back and enjoy massive amounts of explosions and robots a few days earlier as well. The film will be released in both 2D and 3D formats, as well as in IMAX theaters.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon stars Shia LaBeouf, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Kevin Dunn, Julie White, Frances McDormand, John Malkovich, Ken Jeong, Patrick Dempsey, Alan Tudyk, John Turturro and Leonard Nimoy. This marks the third and final film in Michael Bay's Transformers trilogy.

Compared to many people on CBM, I'm a relative newbie to the comic book world. I've just recently (within the last 10 years or so) started reading comics. However, I've been a fan of comic book characters nearly all my life, thanks to cartoons like the X-Men Series and Batman. Been downhill ever since.

I am an avid movie watcher and run my own movie website,(GeekBoyMovieNews) which covers a wide variety of movies, books and television news. There is nothing better to me than to sit back and a enjoy a good movie, or a crappy one for a good laugh.

While you may not see a lot of articles submitted by me, I've been an active user for close to three years here on CBM and I enjoy every minute on here. We have the best online community on the net her at CBM.com.

I've been lucky enough to climb the ranks here at CBM and the almighty Galactus has chosen me to act as one of his Heralds (Jr. Editor). So if you ever need suggestions or help on articles, I am more than happy to help out; you can find me in the CBM chat quite often. I also assist Big G in his "Beat Galactus Quizzes," so if you feel like you have a good question for the next quiz or suggestions on making them work better and more smoothly, feel free to drop me a line.

I look forward to talking and discussing comic books and their movies with all of you on the site!

I have mixed feelings about this movie too.

Part of me thinks it's going to suck.

@puyguy and ecksmanfan

TF3 getting bumped up is actually GOOD news for Captain America. Now the only competition that Captain America is gonna face is Harry Potter, which comes out before CA.

Okay, thank you for the heads up so I can have my pot of coffee ready and some motion sickness pills perscribed and stocked by then.

If it is anything like the prior movies but less comedy like Bay has stated then it is going to be one heluva ride from start to finish. Looking forward to this, but I've been indifferent since day one since the whole series has been whored out to GM and movie industry greed. I face palmed the second movie when I saw "Devastator" as they chose to call it and then to mock him with demolition balls.

I am in Transformers a coma. Please wake me up, people, if and when we find out this movie is redeeming in any way.

Seriously, even though the 2nd flick was crap and all the reviews confirmed it. I still paid to see it Have always been a Transformers fan and will be. So yes, I will see this and glad to hear that current feedback is that its much better than the last one.
