Bumblebee Transformation Sequence, Movie Rating and Length

Little bit of news of the Bumblebee movie front. The MPAA has rated the film PG-13 "for sequences of sci-fi action violence" which is the same as the previous Transformers films. Per AMC and other theater chains, the movie will have a length of 1 hour and 54 minutes which makes it the shortest film of the franchise as the others tended to average 2 and half hours or longer. Finally, via a now taken down video on IMDB, here is a very brief look at Bumblebee's transformation sequence from VW Beetle to his '80s robot mode. (source)

A Legend Passes - R.I.P. Stan Lee 1922-2018

Spider-Man, X-Men, Fantastic Four, The Avengers, Hulk, Iron Man, Black Panther, Inhumans, Daredevil, Thor, Sandman, Sinister Six, She-Hulk, Wasp, Ant-Man, the list just goes on and on. All co-created by on man - Stan Lee. In effect, Marvel Comics existed because of the prolific imagination of this amazing person. Today, we lost a true legend. Stan Lee passed away today at the age of 95 leaving behind a legacy unlike any other. A legacy of great imagination married with conveying great responsibility while reflecting the imperfect world we lived in so can marvel at it all. His creativity, his approach to story telling has inspired and will continue to inspire generations.

Without Stan Lee, Marvel Comics probably would have not existed and without them we would not have the foundation of story, names, and personalities that Transformers was built on when Hasbro took a bunch of mostly unrelated toys from Japan and hired Marvel to help create a story around them.
