'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' Adds Devastator

While apparently not receiving confirmation that it's almost 2009, Transformers World 2005 has received word that you can expect to see the combiner Devastator in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. This is pretty big news, frankly, especially because the sequel to last year's enormo hit had already turned it up to 11 by bringing in the Fallen. Devastator is, as you might expect, total annihilation. He's made up of several vehicles, six or seven, depending on which generation you're looking at. For the purposes of the movie, he'll be seven construction vehicles all rolled into one. Now, if you're reading all this thinking you saw Devastator in the first movie, you're actually half-right.The Decipticon named Brawl is technically Devastator, although writer Robert Orci says that when the Decepticon announces himself and says Devastator, that's a mistake. So, technically, Devastator is actually Brawl. I think. Michael Bay, on the other hand, preferred the name they're using for the new movie, even though it's not really the same character. They'll clear all of that up in Fallen, and there'll be no mistaking this Decepticon for anything else. Devastator will be that puke green fans of the series have come to recognize, but now there will be some red and yellow mixed in, too. Despite Shia LaBeouf's injury, we're still looking at a June 26th release date for 2ransformers next summer, and I expect with as much movement of release dates as we've seen this fall, next summer's movies are going to remain locked in.

Does this mean we'll see the Dino-Bots too? Everyone knows that the only Transformers capable of defeating Devastator are the Dino-Bots!
