Sometimes, even giant transforming robots need time off.

While Paramount announced yesterday that "Transformers 3" would bow on July 1, 2011, director Michael Bay disputes that in a comment on his blog shootfortheedit.com:

"I said I was taking off a year from Transformers. Paramount made a mistake in dating Transformers 3 - they asked me on the phone - I said yes to July 4 - but for 2012 - whoops! Not 2011!!! That would mean I would have to start prep in September. No way. My brain needs a break from fighting robots."

No reply yet from Paramount on the goof. "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen" still hits theaters on June 24 this year.
