Apparently filming is taking place in Long Beach for Transformers 2 and a couple folks near the action managed to catch a couple photos of Optimus Prime. Honestly I didn't even see the first Transformers film until a couple weeks ago and it was a lot better than I had initially anticipated. I was never a fan growing up because I was too busy watching Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. But this franchise has caught my attention.
Check out the photo below and some of the other photos here and here.

Directed by Dave Filoni
Rated PG
Although it sports crystal clear digital animation and some of the imagination that powered the franchise in its first two films, there are elements of Star Wars: The Clone Wars that casual fans might not warm up to. To a die hard Lucasian – the sort of devotee who will see this on opening night with light sabers on his utility belt – this could be a vital and vibrant new beginning. However, a lot of those fans have already seen an animated Clone Wars, so they, too, may be wondering what the score is here.
In terms of chronology, The Clone Wars falls between Episode II and Episode III in the saga. Jedi masters Obi-Wan Kenobi and Anakin Skywalker are assisting the Galactic Republic in its battle against the seceding star systems,

It’s been a little over a year when we last posted the first concept art for Imagi’s CG animated film Gatchaman. Since that time, Tmnt director Kevin Monroe has dropped out and the release date has been push back to 2009 according to the press release. Many rabid Gatchaman fans has been asking when the studio will throw them a bone and so Felix Ip, the creative director of Imagi has answer their call and got the go ahead from his superiors to reveal some new concept art. At his blog site, there is three beautifully render artwork to show the “look” of the animated film and a new logo design with more to come later. Very cool “look”. Hopefully, we will get to see these artwork translated into animated form sometime in the near future. As of now, the film is still in development.

If you're a sci-fan in the least, you definitely need to stop and take a look. Imagi Animation's creative director Felix Ip has just released a few new concept art photos from the upcoming Gatchaman CGI film. We've mentioned this movie a couple of times before, but I can't seem to find any of the original concept art so I've added some of the older artwork below as well. Gatchaman is a sci-fi CGI movie being developed by the same studio that brought us Tmnt. Originally, Kevin Munroe, who also directed the recent Tmnt, was attached to direct Gatchaman, calling it "one of those [experiences] that was a big formative thing as a kid." However, at the moment, no director is attached and the project is still stuck in early development. Maybe these new concept art photos will start some buzz and push it back into production? Gatchaman is based on

Singer/actress Miley Cyrus has taken aim at fellow Disney stars Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato in an online video.
The Hannah Montana star, 15, has posted new footage of herself and her best pal joking around as they mock an earlier video made by friends Gomez and Lovato, in which they talk about their love of make-up and cartoon characters Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
In her own take on the chat, Cyrus boasts about a new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles T-shirt she's bought, saying: "I got a really cool shirt today. Like, really emo, like emo-mazing."
Cyrus' video has now been interspersed with Gomez and Lovato's footage and posted on video-sharing website YouTube.com to show a frame-by-frame comparison of the two.
The attack has sent online gossips into a spin, with many speculating that Cyrus' actions were prompted by reports her ex-boyfriend Nick Jonas is dating Gomez.
However, both Jonas and Gomez, who appears in The Jonas Brothers' new Burnin' Up video, have denied the claims.

With Dylan Dog finally headed to the big screen under the U.S. title Dead of Night, one has to wonder if it will pave the way for other iconic comic book characters who fight monsters. I’m thinking a Cal McDonald movie would be very nice…
An article in Screen Daily has a bit more on Dead of Night, which stars Brandon Routh (Superman Returns) as Dylan and is being directed by Tmnt helmer Kevin Munroe. Seems the setting is being changed from London to New York, no surprise there, and will follow Dylan as he’s pulled back into the nightmare world when a beautiful woman goes to him saying she saw her father killed by a mysterious creature.
"It was important to create a story that would also be relevant to those who know nothing about Dylan," Munroe told the site. "What has set Dylan Dog apart,
