The last two days were days off for the cast and some of the crew of Transformers 4 in Detroit (or filming elsewhere, not sure which). However, that didn't mean preparations did not continue at the Hong Kong, China set. Jerry B, who has been pumping out the great pictures and videos of the set, reports that it seems the giant pagoda set is getting prepped with what looks like a like of explosive containers for a potential finale to that section of the set.

No shooting today on the Detroit set, but they were definitely prepping for one big ass blowout. The big thing with the 3 pagoda roofs on it, we watched them remove a large panel from that and fill an explosion container with bags and bags of potting soil and garden soil. This is what they packed the ground containers with for every explosion. Also, they've attached to each of the three or four HUGE brackets to the main supports of that structure just below each roof and had a cable attached to one that was either anchored to the ground or to the cherry picker in the photo. My theory is that either tonight or tomorrow they're going to either rip the roofs off of that structure or pull the thing completely down in an explosive BOOM. They were also working on a ton of wiring which would seem to support the big boom theory as well.
