The Lemmertorium

Today I will be taking some of my nephews to see the new Transformers movie.  Yay!  Anyway, in my daily meanderings on the internets I happened across some great Transformers related craziness (by which I mean awesomeness!). 

Let’s start with pictures of the National Guard soldier/fire fighter who legally changed his name to Optimus Prime.  Not only is it amazing that someone actually changed their name to a cartoon character’s, but the soldier/fire fighter combination seems a great fit for a man who identifies with the leader of the autobots.  More Optimus Prime goodies can be found here.

The next segment I dedicate to Brian with the question: why haven’t you done anything like this!?  ComicCon ‘07?  Eh?  Watch the video here.

And, if this isn’t enough.  There are tons more videos from Gizmodo here.

Watch this, it’s wonderful!

Charles Ross, who’s performing here, is brilliant. I wish he’d tour in the midwest.

I found out about this at SFX.

I need Ernie’s opinion on this, so be sure and leave a comment, dad!

What kind of person would I be if I didn’t devote a corner of the site to the upcoming Transformers Movie? It’s not a question I’m prepared to answer. So, here it is…
