'Transformers 2' on DVD This October 20

Like we'd let you begin your weekend without sharing this amazing information first. Yes, Paramount Home Entertainment has, in fact, announced the street date for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen on DVD and Blu-ray. Come this October 20th, you'll be smacked around by an assortment of special features on each version -- features that come equipped with odd names like Seeds of Vengeance, Domestic Destruction, Start Making Sense (my personal favorite), Deconstructing Visual Bayhem and Giant Effing Movie. You also get some commentary from Michael Bay, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman, as well as a host of other exciting pieces of "Heck yeah!".

Check out the complete list of features after the jump. Oh, and there's also some stuff in there about winning a sweepstakes that will transform your garage, and details on how to snag a three-dollar (!) coupon from Papa Johns pizza.

o Seeds of Vengeance - Development and Design - After the overwhelming success of 2007's Transformers, how do the filmmakers top themselves for the sequel?
o Domestic Destruction – Production: United States - Michael Bay believes in going big: Big action and big explosions. Cast and crew are pushed to the limit as they traverse the U.S. from New Mexico to Pennsylvania.
o Joint Operations – Production: Military - No other filmmaker in the world enjoys the kind of military access and cooperation Michael Bay has. Here we see just how efficient our armed forces are and the awe and respect shown by the cast.

o Start Making Sense - Editing - In order to turn over the massive amount of film as quickly as possible to VFX, four editors work tirelessly in a unique tag-team approach to shape the film.
o Under the Gun – Visual Effects – Revenge of the Fallen features the most complicated VFX in film history. So complicated in fact that the filmmakers were unsure they would make the deadline. The DEVASTATOR VFX alone required 83% of ILM's total render farm capacity.
