In just about 2 1/2 months time, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen will open in theaters around the world … which means that it is just about time that we get to check out a few new promo pics from the upcoming Summer blockbuster. So as to try and not spoil too much from the film this early before its release, I’ll keep the pics of the actual transformers behind the cut … but here are photos of stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox and more on the set of the film which was shot last year:

This time around, many of the same Transformers robots will be back for more action … but we will also get a new batch of Transformers characters thrown into the mix. After the jump, check out a few new photos of some of the Transformers that will be featured in the movie and see a full list of characters that will appear in the upcoming sequel — some of the Transformers in the film will come as a surprise, I think …

Earlier today we saw a few photos of Shia LaBeouf proudly walking the streets of SoCal with a large paper bag covering his entire head. I commented that of the dudes in Hollywood (unlike Marc Anthony), Shia is not the kind of person you’d want to see with his head hidden by a paper bag … which is why I’m happy to post these other new photos of an unpaperbagless yet much facially haired Shia enjoying a nice lunch with a few friends at Papoo’s Hot Dog Show in Burbank, CA … check ‘em out:

Now that’s more like it … and while I wouldn’t necessarily classify his facial hair in the porn’stache genus, I do think it is of the same family. The beard and ’stache give him a bit of a mature look … which works for him. And now that he’s boldly going out sans paper bag, well, we can take notice and admire. He does still look a bit sad in the third pic … looks like he could use a hug. Anyone out there willing to help him out with that?

Shia LaBeouf didn’t seem to be having a particularly good day yesterday … mebbe it was the rainy weather making him feel down (you will note his hand cast is wrapped in a plastic bag, presumable to keep it dry from the rain), mebbe it was because he still can’t have his driver’s license reinstated (because he refused to take a breathalyzer test) after he flipped his truck in that car accident last year (which resulted in the injury and subsequent surgeries on his hand, which requires he wear a cast that needs to be protected from the aforementioned rain) … or mebbe he was just feelin’ a bit unpretty. Whatever the reason, Shia made his way home from the store, where he picked up a couple cans of Arizona Tea, with a large paper bag covering his head:

You know, there are quite a few celebs that would benefit greatly from having a big, brown bag covering their face from public view (but Marc Anthony shall remain nameless) … Shia is not one of those people. We all know that Shia does tend to get shy when the paps are around and mebbe he thought that covering his face (well, his entire head) with a paper bag would throw them off his trail. In any event, the hand cast is a dead giveaway … so he really shouldn’t worry about trying to venture out incognito. The least he could do is find himself a proper mask to wear .. I’m sure he could borrow one from one of Michael Jackson’s children.

Shia LaBeouf, who is still nursing an injured hand after his recent car accident and subsequent surgeries afterward, was spotted doing a bit of light reading at King’s Road Cafe in West Hollywood, CA yesterday with a friend (agent?) … it looks like Shia is looking over a new script for an upcoming film project:

Glad to see that Shia’s still healing hand isn’t keeping him from planning new work ahead. Who knows what masterpiece of cinematic artistry Shia is lookin’ to feature in but whatever it is, I’m sure it’ll be a humdinger of an entertaining film.

Good news for Shia LaBeouf … he won’t be charged with driving under the influence of alcohol as a result of the car accident he was involved in back in July. Bad news for Shia LaBeouf … because he refused to take a Breathalyzer test at the scene of the accident, the LA County Sheriff’s Department is recommending that his driver’s license be suspected for up to 6 months as a result (driver’s license suspension is mandatory for everyone who refuses to submit to a field sobriety test):

Shia LaBeouf won’t face DUI charges for the July 27 car accident that crushed his hand, the L.A. County District Attorney’s Office announced Thursday. “After reviewing the case, we’ve declined to file any charges due to insufficient evidence,” says DA spokeswoman Jane Robison. Following the crash, the 22-year-old Transformers star was cited with misdemeanor DUI while he was still at the hospital. Prosecutors instead plan to file criminal charges against the other driver, who was found to have run a red light, Robison says … Although the DA rejected the case, LaBeouf still faces a DMV hearing Friday and the possible suspension of his driver’s license, L.A. County Sheriff’s spokesman Steve Whitmore tells PEOPLE. “When an individual refuses to take a blood alcohol test, that person’s license is automatically suspended for six to nine months,” says Whitmore.

In the end, it’s a good day for Shia … having a suspended license is the least of his worries. I understand the lad still has more hand surgery in his future to repair the damage done to his hand by the accident. Reports are that he will eventually be fully recovered from his injuries but surgery isn’t fun for anyone. Even tho Shia wasn’t deemed to be at fault for this accident, I hope the kid can keep his nose out of trubs — no more run-ins wit the law, ya hear? Perhaps this time he has finally learned his lesson … I guess time will tell.

Shia LaBeouf, Michelle Monaghan and others were on hand at Mann’s Grauman Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, CA last night for the LA premiere of their new movie Eagle Eye. Here are a few pics from the event’s red carpet arrivals last night:

Eagle Eye strikes me as a modern take on the classic novel 1984 where unknown, all-seeing forces are in control of people’s everyday lives … tho, unlike 1984, this movie focuses on the manipulation and exploitation of two strangers forced to carry out tasks for their survival. I must admit, I was very intrigued by the movie from the very first time I saw the movie trailer. I am totally fascinated by the overwhelming influence of technology on our everyday lives and the scenario presented in this film, while overly exaggerated, is one that could one day become a reality. I quite liked Shia LaBeof’s movie Disturbia which was a modern reinterpretation of Alfred Hitchcock’s movie Rear Window so I think I might enjoy this movie as well (tho, I hope that lawsuit against the makers of Disturbia works out OK). The movie opens next Friday … wee! I really hope it don’t suck.

Everyone knows that a growing boy needs to eat three square meals a day so that he can grow big and strong … we also know that breakfast is regarded as the most important meal of the day … which is why I’m very pleased to know that Shia LaBeouf is taking his nutrition seriously and is eating properly. Here are a couple pics of Shia making his way out of corner grocery store in Hollywood this weekend with a couple boxes of healthy cereal:

You see, Shia isn’t interested in eating overly sugar-coated junk cereal like Lucky Charms (like I am) and he’s not interested in cereals that come packaged with toy surprises (like I am, sometimes throwing away entire boxes of cereal just for a crappy plastic toy) so we can rest assured that he is well on his way to growing up to be a big strapping man … some day. You da man, Shia, you da man.
