Shia LaBeouf's Hand Injury Written Into Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen

A few short week's ago, Transformers star Shia LaBeouf was involved in a car accident that saw his SUV being flipped into the middle of an intersection. The incident caused sever damage to his left hand and left the star unable to continue filming his highly anticipated summer sequel Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen. Now, according to Just Jared at Buzznet.com the actor is back at work on the set, and they have written his hand injury into the script.

Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen seems to be staying on schedule, which means that, despite Shia's latest real life injury, we will still be getting the film on June 26th, 2009.

Remembering Bernie Mac and Isaac Hayes

This week, two great celebrity passed away.

First is Bernie Mac, this news surprised me, because I thought that he was healthy, seeing last in the movies Ocean Thirteen and Transformers, wherein he sells Bumblebee to Sam Witwicky.
His role as loud mouthed car salesman was remarkable and also being one of Ocean Eleven.

Truly a big loss for the entertainment industry, Bernie Mac was only 50 years old.

Another one is Academy Award winner Isaac Hayes,who won the Oscar in 1972 for best original song for the theme from Shaft, was found unresponsive at his house by family members.

After his career-defining soundtrack for the 1971 movie Shaft, for which Hayes picked up an Oscar, three Grammy awards, a Golden Globe award, and an Edison award, Europe's highest music honor, Hayes began acting in scores of movies and television series.

His guest star appearances included TV shows The Rockford Files and Miami Vice. He also appeared in feature films such as Escape from New York and "Hustle & Flow."

Musically, he returned to the pop charts in 1986 with a new record deal with Columbia and a new album, "U-Turn".

In 1997 he began voicing the role of Chef in the animated Comedy Central cable ' series South Park, but quit in 2006, apparently because of a conflict with Scientology, a religion he followed since the mid 1990s.

In 2002, Hayes was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and moved back home to Memphis, Tennessee, where he pursed business interests that flowered into two restaurants and a best-selling cookbook.

These two black person will surely be missed.

RIP Bernie and Isaac.

ROBOTECH as a LIVE ACTION MOVIE

Due to the box office success of TRANSFORMERS, producers are now turning to Anime' to make a new movie. This time it will be ROBOTECH.

Lawrence Kasdan, the noted screenwriter behind Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders Of The Lost Ark, has just had his name attached to Robotech. According to reports, Kasdan will be the new writer for the adaptation of the American cartoon based on three Japanese anime series.

The original cartoon of Robotech tells the story of a future Earth which comes under a series of alien invasions, and uses that alien technology to create transforming vehicles to fight back. The American series drew from three unconnected Japanese series, but somehow managed to make them into a coherent storyline.

Robotech is set to be developed by Tobey Maguire's Maguire Entertainment for Warner Brothers.

It's pretty obvious that Tobey Maguire will play the lead role, but were not sure yet, so will have to wait.
