Culture Buzz A coffeeshop called Espresso Royale employs a talented artist named Sara Jahn. She creates these awesome depictions of turtles and other 80s-era icons getting their caffeine fix. (via obviouswinner.com)
This is probably the geekiest yet coolest thing you'll see all week. The Lego Gameboy transformer (done by Julius von Brunk) combines everything we loved from the 90s, including a Tetris cartridge that turns into a Transformer bird.
Culture Buzz I appreciate that this ring's geekery is subtle. They're supposed to be robots in disguise, after all.
Movie Buzz For you consideration… This is not a joke. Michael Bay takes the Oscars super serious you guys.
Celebrity Buzz A crappy companion piece to the Oscar nominations. This list is a composite of predictions from film critics as to which cinematic atrocity will win the uncoveted Razzie for Worst Picture, compiled by awards show handicappers GoldDerby.
It's a completely standard and seemingly inevitable procedure these days for celebrities to go under the knife in order to achieve perfection. Transformers star Meghan Fox is no exception. Do you think she looks better before or after?
Culture Buzz Made by a sculptor from Thailand using scrapped auto parts. This is badass! (via redd.it)
Check out this ridiculously awesome video showcasing nearly every single toy from the 1980's. Entitled 'The King Of Legoland', the video was directed by Micaël Reynaud and the music is by Hunting Charlie's Band. (via officialhype.org)
TV Buzz Optimus Prime is so ashamed. It could always be weirder. At least it's chest hair.
Culture Buzz These My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic Transformers are a ton of fun. Inspector Nills did such a good job combining the two I am thinking it is spin off time. You hear me Hasbro? Spin off time. (via theuniblog.evilspacerobot.com)
Jon Favreau belongs to the Wong Gang now. Looks like FreddieW is moving up in the world.
Culture Buzz Most Transformers fans will agree that Peter Cullen is the only true voice of Optimus Prime. But there's a good chance that you've heard him in other shows and didn't even know it was him!
The Autobots and Decepticons get their own movie trailer re-imagining with footage from My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.
Rosie Huntington is super hot on the BuzzFeed Network right now. Here's all the best viral buzz on Rosie Huntington.
Just in time for Dark Of The Moon, these new Optimus Prime and Megatron USB drives skipped the newer CGI design in favor of the classic 80s look. This doesn't make me forgive Michael Bay, but it helps. (via geeky-gadgets.com)
Movie Buzz The phrases “ineffable soullessness” and “persistent moral idiocy” are used. And that's just in the first sentence. Looks like Michael Bay has another hit on his hands!
Culture Buzz From Nigel Thornberry and Transformers to Cee Lo Green's Patti LaBelle costume, we've got all the viral hits from the weekend and predictions for the week to come! It's the Weekly Viral Forecast for June 27th, 2011.
Buddy Valastro, star of TLC Cake Boss, sculpted and baked a 2000-pound cake in the shape of “Bumblebee” from Transformers. I'd make it my duty to eat the whole thing—for Cybertron! (via plaeboi.com)
Celebrity Buzz And that angers me. Making me choose between Fox and Michael Bay is like a reverse Sophie's Choice. Can't you take them both away? (via themarysue.com)
Movie Buzz Explosions! Sexy girls! Overt racism! Minimal plot! I love Alan Lopuszynski so much for coming out with this campaign. Now if only Hollywood would adopt it.
Optimus Prime-d for a dance off. What is this? I don't even…
Culture Buzz If you're going to use your car to advertise your procreation prowess, you might as well do it with style. I think Kelly Kreations is on to something.

If you're a grown man and you wear these, then you are awesome.
Autobots… transform! Magic can happen with the webcam mirror tool and lots and lots of boredom.
Culture Buzz According to the eyes of the NYPD, Optimus Prime does not get a free parking pass in the streets of NYC. Their loss! There will be no help when the Decepticons take over the city.
Spotted at the Toy Fair in New York City, the leader of the Autobots refuses to recognize our earth parking laws. Or maybe he was ticketed for how soul-crushing “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen” was.
Culture Buzz Brandon Ortwein has been rocking it lately with a series called The Body Shop Mixups. All his prints are available for purchase.
