Posted here (http://www.superherohype.com/news/transformersnews.php?id=8416) is something that sounds like the 2007 movie is being released again on DVD in America with some a code that allows you to access bonus stuff (downloadable I guess).
But most likely not applicable to us here if we don't get this special release here.
Pity though, as it sounds like the extra scenes from the IMAX version would finally be released in some way, despite Bay originally saying they wouldn't.
It'd be really good if they included scenes that were not included on either version (a number of scenes were known to be filmed but not completed or added to the finished film).
Paramount Home Entertainment sent out the following announcement:
In anticipation of the eagerly-awaited June 24 theatrical premiere of DreamWorks Pictures’ and Paramount Pictures’ action-packed Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Paramount Home Entertainment will offer consumers who purchase TRANSFORMERS on Blu-ray or DVD access to an exclusive sneak peek at the highly-anticipated sequel featuring Sam (Shia LaBeouf) and Mikaela (Megan Fox) as they desperately attempt to escape the Decepticons. Beginning on June 16, 2009, fans who purchase a new TRANSFORMERS DVD or Blu-ray disc at retail nationwide can augment their experience with access to compelling bonus content. Made available on a secure micro-site through an access code from the back of the Exclusive Sneak Peek sticker on the DVD package or via BD-Live, the footage includes two additional sneak peeks at the new film and over 25 minutes of bonus materials from the original film including never-before-seen deleted scenes, Megan Fox’s audition tapes and more.
The $700+ million smash hit TRANSFORMERS exploded onto screens from the creative minds of director Michael Bay and executive producer Steven Spielberg and went on to become the top-selling DVD of 2007, as well as one of the best-selling Blu-ray discs to date.
