Transformers in IMAX theaters!

The Transformers movie will be shown in IMAX theaters on September 21 with additional footage! Now, im not sure if it meant IMAX theaters worldwide or IMAX theaters including the one in SM Mall of Asia (the second IMAX theater is said to be being built on SM North Edsa, on what used to be SM North Annex Building, and is scheduled to be finished by 2008) but if it includes our local IMAX theater then im still going to see it (i hope i get to see it. i mean, there's such a thing as force majeure). Watching the Transformers movie on TV isn't the same as watching it in theaters (for me anyway). It might not be in 3D (since it never mentioned IMAX 3D. i used to think when a movie is shown in IMAX theaters, it meant the movie is in 3D. i was wrong) but at least it has additional footage. I was planning to watch the Transformers movie for one last time before they stopped showing it in cinemas but an old guy scared me before i even bought the ticket.

As for the Voltron movie, some might think its corny to make a movie out of it. It would probably look like a Power Rangers movie. Like Transformers, it may also be a robot movie but its a robot that...umm..well, "volts in". I mean, which is cooler, "transforming" robots or robots that "volt in"? Some said a Transformers movie was idiotic but they're not complaining now after they saw the movie. I get the point that the Voltron movie might turn out to be a lame idea but i just hope that it wont turn out to be something more of a Power Rangers movie with better special effects. It probably wont suck as some people think (i hope). i mean, i did love watching Bioman and Maskman when i was a kid. but that doesnt mean im going to like a Voltron movie made that way unless i wanted to see a comedy or a spoof of robot cartoons/tv series.i guess it depends on whether they can make the necessary changes (like the changes they made in the Transformers movie) or making a well-made film adaptation to make the Voltron movie really look good. wait, isnt that the point of everything, in making this movie? Anyway, there are also plans to make a Thundercats movie (not sure if this was given a go signal already, read this news a month ago, i think). I think this one wont be a live-action version but more of a CGI movie like the TMNT movie.
