Ain’t It Cool News posted an alleged official frame from next summers movie. It lasted about 30 minutes before being pulled down at the request of Paramount.

I’ll be perfectly honest. It has a cool score of about 10,000 on a scale of 1 to 10. Skorponok looks totally different from what we are used to but it looks scary and intimidating as hell.

Then Transformers producer Don Murphy weighs in -

Harry Knowles Should Be Imprisoned

Seriously, he should.

Now, under the provisions of the Digital Millenium Copyright act, his loser Ain’t It Shit site, has to take down any copyright violations that he is notified about immediately. This is under the Safe Harbor provision. It is how You Tube currently defends itself (I say currently because the movie and tv industry will soon cripple YouTube). However, Harry acknowledges in the very posting that he knows he is violating the law, that the picture is protected, but he posts it anyway, also knowing that it will spread all over the internet (already within minutes one of the talkback rodents has “mirrored” the image). Thus, he has violated the law of the United States knowingly and willfully. Maybe no prison could contain his whole body, but at the least he should be held liable for enough in damages that Aint It Shit closes down and their constant illegal behavior, from reviewing stolen scripts to posting reviews from private test screenings held up as wrong and harmful and illegal. I’ve asked the studio to investigate. Stay Tuned.

Either way, it’s great publicity. People are digging it. I’ve read far more positive than negative buzz since the image hit the wires.

I've loved Transformers since I was a kid although I lost that love as I got older. When I heard about the live action movie it brought it all back. I love the animated shows, the toys and can't wait for the movie. Everything I've seen of the movie so far gets me tremendously excited.
