Transformers Special Edition IMAX Sept 21
Cats: Transformers|ComingSoon is reporting that a Special Edition extended cut of TRANSFORMERS will be released on IMAX theatres September 21. This news comes on the same day that Michael Bay reacts negatively to Paramount’s decision that they are going HD-DVD exclusive.
The IMAX version will be different from the original theatrical release, however — more footage is promised. No details are available yet, although it’s easy to guess that the added scenes are likely to be flashy special effects that will look fabulous on IMAX, as opposed to more backstory or dialogue. After all, no one is going to rush to see Transformers at IMAX so they can hear the conversations more clearly. In July, Erik Davis told us about an interview with Mark Ryan, the voice of the Bumblebee robot, in which the actor mentioned DVD material of a prequel that would set up a potential second film.
