Michael Bay’s new summer blockbuster flick seems to be off to a good start. The film is getting a lot of attention, the shelves are full of toys and merchandise, the critics are alright and… according to, the movie had “shattered the Wednesday record, raking in $60.6 million on approximately 9,700 screens at 4,234 sites (including a record 169 IMAX venues) in its first day“! We have to admit, we’re a bit skeptical after seeing some of the trailers, but that’s quite an achievement and we’re still impatient to go see it.

From screens to road: Chinese fan transforms Chevy Cruze into Bumblebee

Bumblebee's little brother.
What do you do if you love the Camaro from Michael Bay’s Transformers but can’t afford or can’t wait for it to be available in dealerships? Well if you’re really, really passionate you look at other cars that could fit the bill and you get to work. That’s what happened to a Chinese fan who bought a Chevy Cruze (at least its from the same brand) and transformed it into a Bumblebee look-alike. From the look of it the owner not only worked on the exterior but also made some mechanical modifications and it’s faithful to its sibling.. Might be a bit geeky, but the effort is appreciated.

Megan Fox Washed Bay's Car for "Transformers" Role

Actor Ramon Rodriguez previously revealed the bizarre audition with Michael Bay that he went through for "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen." "For 90 minutes, he had me jumping, running, diving over the furniture in his office -- that was the audition," said Rodriguez. "I was drenched in sweat. He told me, 'OK, hide behind the desk!' 'Now, run over here!' And man, I was looking in his eyes, and he was enjoying it."
It seems that Michael Bay knows what he's looking for when he hires actors. So what kind of an audition did Megan Fox go through when she tried out for "Transformers"?
According to Fox, Bay made her wash his Ferrari while he filmed her at his house. She said that she didn't known what had happened to that footage. And when The Guardian asked Bay about it, he uncomfortably replied: "Er, I don't know where it is either."
