SONY BMG MUSIC UNVEILS FAVORITE QUOTE FROM TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE AFTER POLLING FANS

TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE 20TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL EDITION DVD

To Be Released November 7th

New York, New York, August 29, 2006 - In celebration of the November 7th release of TRANSFORMERS: The Movie 20th Anniversary Special Edition DVD, the home entertainment group of SONY BMG Music Entertainment today revealed the results of the recent fan voting for the favorite quote from the classic animated film.

Over the last seven days, fans logged on to www.TRANSFORMERSthemovieDVD.com and voted for their favorite quote from TRANSFORMERS: The Movie. Fans were able to choose between nine memorable quotes from the classic animated feature film. After an overwhelming response, a winner has been crowned. A clip of the favorite quote will be posted today on www.TRANSFORMERSthemovieDVD.com.

For the 20th anniversary edition, Sony BMG Home Entertainment completely re-mastered and color-corrected the film and will present Optimus Prime, Megatron and the rest of the star-studded Autobots and Decepticons in true splendor through three distinct versions: 16x9 Widescreen presentation, the Autobot Matrix of Knowledge presentation featuring trivia and fun facts about the movie itself; and a full-screen edition.

SONY BMG has commissioned fan-favorite TRANSFORMERS artist Don Figueroa to create the imagery for a special "transforming" DVD cover. One piece of cover art features Optimus Prime appropriately situated in a position of prominence. Joining the Autobot leader are Megatron, Bumblebee, Starscream, Blaster and more of the most popular TRANSFORMERS characters. In the second image, Hot Rod – as he transforms into Rodimus Prime – is grasping the Matrix of Leadership as it lights the Autobots' darkest hour. Above, Unicron begins to destruct, while Galvatron, Arcee and Springer look on.
