Movieweb is reporting the Mike Patton, of Faith No More fame, will be providing the voice of one of the Constructicons in Transformers Revenge of the Fallen. It is not entirely clear which Constructicon he will be providing the voice for - the source suggests Mixmaster, but contradicts it by saying he is the left leg of Devastator and a dump truck, but one thing is certain - he is 100% on board for the project.

Engadget reports on Transformers Revenge of The Fallen director Michael Bay's appearance at the LG promo event at CTIA:

We're not sure what LG expected when it invited Micheal Bay to speak about the company's promotional support of Transfomers 2: Revenge of the Fallen at CTIA, but let's be honest -- they probably should have known dude was going to blow something up. Unfortunately for the gathered LG employees, this time Mike-Mike delivered a figurative explosion, telling the crowd "I don't know anything about mobile phones. In fact, look at my phone -- it's a thirty-nine dollar Samsung."

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen director Michael Bay has sat down with MTV to discuss some new details regarding the sequel. The director reveals that the scenes featuring Devstator were filmed with IMAX cameras and thus movie-goers watching the film at the IMAX theatres will see those scenes in full IMAX glory. Michael also seems to suggest that one of the first scenes of the movie feature Megan Fox's Mikaela Banes doing something similar to "hood-opening" scene in the first movie. He also states that the sequel will feature no pure car chases scenes.
