We welcome Ashlee back into the studio for our Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen preview and review special!

We fill our engines with a round of Geek Cuisine including Transformers Strawberry Peanut Butter M & Ms!

The five geeks discuss the first Transformers movie, including what they loved and what they hated. What are they looking forward to in Revenge of The Fallen? Will Michael Bay live up to his reputation? Will it suffer from Christina’s feared “Middle Movie Syndrome”? Brad and Adam discuss Devestator and the toys that will follow with this movie.

Next comes the Geeking and Telling interlude, where Brad shows off his newest shiny Transformer toys including Rollbar, Knockout, the bi-plane Ransack, Soundwave and Skidz.

In Revenge of Geek Cuisine, the gang enjoys Snickers Nougabot bars!
