Transformers

More oil was used on Megan Fox than all the automobiles in this film combined!

Continuing our Transformers retrospective, Arnie, Jerry, and Stuart shift gears into Michael Bay’s 2007 live-action debut, dubbed "Bayformers" by longtime fans. With Steven Spielberg producing and a massive effects budget bringing Autobots and Decepticons into the real world, the film aimed to turn a beloved ’80s cartoon into a modern blockbuster.

Join the Now Playing Podcast crew as they break down the action, the humor, and the metal-on-metal mayhem to see if this transformation holds up. {Transformers Series}
