After Hours, just what is After Hours, well it is a movie column named after one of my favorite Martin Scorsese films. After Hours will feature any news we might have missed during the day. After all we are human.
Michael Bay, the master of eye popping visuals and explosions, spoke to MTV News during the premiere of I am Number Four. Bay, serving as the I am Number Four’s producer, gave MTV News a little tease about what is to come for his summer project Transformers: Dark of the Moon.
Not only did Bay confirm that Shockwave was in the film, but he did confirm that he “got a much bigger gun” and is “more vicious” than Megatron.
Bay added that “Sentinel Prime is great” and with that we have confirmation of a new character. “He’s great. I can’t tell you anything else, other than he’s great.”
Bay also added that this entry would the his last for the franchise.

Finally we have word about two Paul Thomas Anderson projects. Vulture is reporting that Megan Ellison, the 25-year old daughter of Oracle Corporation founder Larry Ellison, is in negotiations to co-finance The Master, a film that tells the story about a disgruntled disciple who is dissatisfied with his mentor and the religious founder of The Cause (which bares a resemblance to the real life Scientology). The article adds how Ms. Ellison started out originally as a party girl and morphed into a serious film producer in the industry. Just to let you know, she has served as executive producer for True Grit, and the upcoming The Wettest County in the World, starring Shia LaBeouf and Tom Hardy.
However, the article tells little about PTA’s other project Inherent Vice. Vulture has learned that Anderson has even received a full blessing from Thomas Pynchon to go ahead with the project.
