Holy crap: The Super Bowl 2009 spot for 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' has leaked prior to tonight's game, and all indications point towards total box office annihilation.
Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox team up again for the 'Transformers' sequel, which is set for a June 26, 2009 release in both regular and IMAX theaters according to IMDB. We've seen a number of "accidentally leaked" Super Bowl 2009 commercials this week, but this spot for 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' is the first one I'm genuinely excited about.
Besides the Miller High Life one-second ad promo, of course.
