Fellow Seibertronian, christian, has emailed us some fun-to-read details about his day trying out for the Transformers movie. Thanks for the email christian and good luck!

Hi there- my girlfriend and I just got back from the auditions in Burbank for the Transformers Movie. The auditions started at five, but we got there around 4:45. At 4:45 there were already 200 people there! By the time we left, the line was out the door and down the block. We were given a form to fill out with the general information- height, weight, etc. The casting director told us that Transformers ( as if we didn't know) was a "full force high budget feature action film". After filling out the forms, they snapped two pictures of each person and sent us home. Apparently they call after MichaelBay has looked at all of the photos. The best part was that the local ABC affiliate (channel seven in LA) was there filming the auditions, and they interviewed me! The reporter asked me what I would think if I was on the set and Michael Bay picked me out of a crowd to play a transformer. I told the reporter I didn't think I would be great at transforming into a car, but I would do my best. We just got home and saw a lead clip for tonights 11:00pm news where the anchor man said "Tonight at eleven, standing in line for the rols that could transform their lives!". As we left we were handed a piece of paper saying that filming would be the entire week of the tenth. ANyway- just thought you might be interested!
