Elementary, My Dear Asylum

Later this year we'll be getting the Guy Ritchie directed Sherlock Holmes with Robert Downey Jr. as a more caddish, bumbling, action-oriented world's greatest detective than we're used to seeing..

Transmorphers: Fall of Man Trailer Meets the Eye

The Asylum counters with the prequel Transmorphers: Fall of Man on DVD June 30th. The first trailer has also fallen to give us a taste of all the human hauling ass away from the rampaging robots action to come.
