While I'm sure may of you may be aware of this, I'm posting this for those who have not heard. 

It seems as though Transformers: The Dark of the Moon is pulling an Avatar with it's release.  The DVD and Blu-ray releases coming out on Sept 30 are bare-bone versions. There will be a separate release in the coming months (possibly December?) which will be loaded with special features. The 3D Blu-ray will be released at the same time as the deluxe versions of the Blu-ray & DVD. At least the early, bare-bones versions have low SRPs ($19.99 DVD, $29.99 BD), which is also an indicator of the lack of bonus features. Official press release can be found: here.

That's why I'll likely just buy the DVD of it first and then buy the Blu-Ray trilogy set later since I don't own any of them on that format.

Good to know. The B-rD will be cheap. I already have the first two on B-rD, and after the weak RotF I do not expect much from DotM. And I'm definitely not interested in feeble bonus features about it like U-Control or how the modern but silly and useless "features" on Blu-rays with the long loading time are called nowadays. I might have interest in an extended version, though.

Since I put all my movies on my NAS so I can exclude all the extra stuff (it feels great to have the movie START when I push play, no extras, no warning signs, no menus, no etc.), I'll probably get the initial bare-bones release.

Lucky you, I'm jealous. But maybe someday the industry will come up with this, as a brand-new feature, named U-Startâ„¢ or something, charges 5 bucks more per disc for it, and we profile it in the feature section.
