“An All New World Awaits” for James Cameron’s Avatar and [Filmonic] has some coverage on film coming to IMAX later this year.

Roberto Orci & Alex Kurtzman, co-writers of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, have a lot to say to [Sci-Fi Wire] about the robots in the movie and Leonard Nimoy voicing one of them.
