The official Transformers website has updated to include a new Revenge of the Fallen logo.

Monday July 21st was the UK and European premiere of The Dark Knight, Christian Bale, Aaron Eckhart, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Chris Nolan, Michael Caine and the tumbler were all at hand to sign autographs, greet fans and attend the shindig.

Below is a 17 video playlist of television features, video interviews and candid shots of the Batmobile, cast and crew. YouTube is playing silly buggers and not letting me edit this playlist so the order of the videos may not be too great for the moment. Enjoy.

Not meaning to sour the joyful occasion and celebration that is The Dark Knight, but it looks like Christian Bale has been causing trouble, as reported by the BBC:

Batman star Christian Bale has been bailed by police after being questioned about allegations he assaulted his mother and sister.

The 34-year-old was arrested and held for more than four hours after earlier attending a central London police station by appointment.

Mr Bale is alleged to have lashed out at his mother and sister in his suite at London’s Dorchester Hotel on Sunday.

He has been released on bail until September pending further inquiries.

Flickr user PeterPunker was lucky enough to be invited to one of Th Dark Knight’s premieres in Europe. He has posted some pictures to let us know what we are missing:

Kotaku had a chance to quiz head of Microsoft Game Studios Phil Spencer and vice president of Strategy and Business Development Shane Kim at E3, trying to draw out of them as much Halo information as possible – touching on the movie in the process.

We continue to be in discussions with various potential partners. We’re so excited about the idea. We don’t have anything specific to announce but I can tell you that their continues to be tremendous interest. We wanna make sure, whenever we translate it to the big screen that its going to be a movie worthy of the IP. So we’re going to be very careful about how we proceed there.

AICN’s Quint has had a chance to speak with Rainn Wilson, and in the conversation the topic of Transformers 2 appropriately popped up alongside working with Michael Bay:

Quint: So what are you working on now? You have some stuff coming up?
Rainn Wilson: Well, I just did a very small cameo in TRANSFORMERS 2.

Quint: Cool.
Rainn Wilson: That was kind of a blast. I got to work with Michael Bay and I was a big fan of TRANSFORMERS.

Quint: I spent a few days on the set of the first movie and something I noticed was that Michael Bay, I think he has an AD, but he doesn’t need one.
Rainn Wilson: He does everything himself.

Quint: He does everything and he’s not afraid to be the task master on a set.
Rainn Wilson: I saw him and he was literally giving the focus puller notes. The focus puller was like “No, you have to do it like this…” and Michael Bay is like “No no no, do it like this and hook this here and you can turn this here and you can get the focus this way…” Somehow I believed Michael Bay knew more than the focus puller. He even ran camera a couple of times. He did his own camera work.

Quint: That must have been fun. I don’t imagine that you are in any scenes with any robots, but it would still be fun.
Rainn Wilson: No, I wish I would have had scenes with explosions, but yeah the only other thing is I have a bunch of film irons in the fire out there.

Whilst Megan Fox recently spoke to IGN about TF2, I’ve extracted the interesting bits:

Q: How is Transformers 2 going?
Megan Fox: It’s going good. It’s gigantic!

Q: Compared to the first, you’d say it’s way bigger?
Fox: It’s twice the budget, so yeah.

Q: Can you say where this movie picks up for your characters?
Fox: It’s two years later, so when it comes out it will be present day. Shia [LaBeouf, who reprises his role as Sam Witwicky] and I have been dating for two years, so it’s kind of like old news. There’s no big love scenes or anything like that – you kind of get into the couple bickering now. That stage, like the old married couple. That’s all I can say!

There’s also another interview with Megan Fox by Scifi.com

The fellow at the Don Murphy forums have provided some new shots of the Transformers fleet in preparation for transport – the Chevy Beat, Chevy Trax, Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Ironhide and most importantly capturing our first clear shots of the slick silver car we saw at Fairmount, thought to be a Chevy Corvette ZR1 or C7, though the rear panels on both of those do not fit with this model. The latest rumor puts it as a reintroduction of the popular Chevy Stingray, with the styles and aura of previous incarnations. Whatever it is, it’s very sexy.

In a post on Don Murphy’s message board, writer Roberto Orci stated that Transformers 2 shooting has been taking place “all week and last week”. It was previously thought that TF2 had ceased filming in anticipation of the SAG strikes.

Michael Bay has confirmed this in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, where they spoke to Michael Bay at a remote air force base.
