Transformers: Dark of the Moon trailer debuts

Director Michael Bay along with Dreamworks and Paramount Pictures have released a new trailer for the third Transformers film. It is a surprisingly subdued clip from Bay, with nary an explosion to be seen, and not a single half naked woman in the entire trailer.

The third film involves a secret mission to the dark side of the moon during the Apollo 11 moon landing in 1969, which confirmed to humans that there is alien life in the universe. Forty years later, lots of ‘slosions and half naked women will do impressive things while even more ‘splosions occur.

The main plot has been kept fairly under wraps, but odds are it will feature giant robots slugging it out with things getting destroyed.  The fate of the world will probably feature in as well. The trailer is just a glimpse of what the movie will feature. Expect more trailers, teasers, authorized toys, video games, books, cereals,  and the like to hit soon, as the $250 million budgeted movie comes closer to release.

Transformers: Dark of the Moon hits theaters and IMAX in 3D on July 1, 2011.

Everything coming to PBS in November 2024

There are no new British dramas premiering on PBS in November, but there's more than enough programming to see you through the penultimate month of 2024. Ken Burns is premiering his new documentary, Leonardo da Vinci, about the world's most famous Renaissance man, artist, and inventor. And PBS has several other documentary and nature programs slated to run throughout the month.

PBS' non-partisan coverage of the 2024 presidential election will culminate on Tuesday, November 5. But if you're really missing your British dramas, there are encore presentations of All Creatures Great & Small and Call the Midwife coming as well.

What’s new on Amazon Prime Video in November 2024
A man stands in front of a caution sign.

James Patterson's Alex Cross character is getting a third chance in live-action this month on Amazon Prime Video. Morgan Freeman and Tyler Perry have previously portrayed the titular detective character. Now, Black Adam's Aldis Hodge steps into the role. The new Cross series is Prime Video's biggest debut in November, but far from the only noteworthy addition. There are a lot of new additions to the streamer's movie lineup, including The Godfather trilogy, Silver Linings Playbook, and the unconventional vampire film Abigail.

Additionally, Prime Video is rebooting Cruel Intentions as a drama series, which has the potential to be another big hit for the streamer. And aside from Die Hard, there are only a handful of Christmas titles coming this month. We can appreciate a little restraint, especially since December will likely be a very different story.

Thanks to Disney's big summer at the box office, Disney+ gets to bring home the second-highest-grossing movie of the year in November. Deadpool & Wolverine is making its streaming debut on November 12, but it's not the only noteworthy new addition to Disney+. If you've ever loved the Star Wars and Indiana Jones themes of John Williams, then you should watch the new documentary Music By John Williams, which is available on Disney+ as of November 1.

A really charming Christmas-related animated short, An Almost Christmas Story, is arriving on November 15, while Beatles '64 adds yet another Beatlemania documentary to Disney+ on November 29. On that same date, Disney is also celebrating the 60th anniversary of Mary Poppins this month by releasing a special documentary about one of Walt Disney's personal favorite films. And finally, Disney gets to capitalize on the release of Wicked by bringing Oz the Great and Powerful to Disney+ near the end of November.
