Well it was only a matter of time I suppose. With the first Transformers movie succeeding despite its substantial terribleness, and the inevitable success of the sequel and it's even more inevitable terribleness set to hit theaters this week, two facts have become obvious to the beady eyes of the Hollywood Producer:
1) Giant robots are awesome
2) People are stupid.
And what better way to capitalize on those two key facts than by making a giant robot movie guaranteed to be worse than the Transformers: a resuscitation of the Gobots franchise - the original Transformers knock off?
Well it's happened, and thanks to the help of a naïve young production assistant who thinks I'm going to put in a good word for him with Tom Hanks (I'm not even going to mention him the next time I see Tom) I've managed to obtain a few select pages from the Gobot movie script. It's pretty thrilling stuff, but I should caution any Gofans out there that Gospoilers lie within. Gotread carefully.

Note: We think we've talked Segway up to $300 for the product placement. We could use it.

Note: If we can get "Highway to the Danger Zone" for this scene we definitely should.
