Summer 2011 is really beginning to shape up as Transformers becomes the third film announced thus far for July — Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II hits on the 15th and Marvel’s The First Avenger: Captain America hits on the 22nd. Paramount has also moved up the release date of Marvel’s Thor to May 20th to give the threequel more breathing room.

Many fans hope that Warner Bros will announce a sequel to The Dark Knight for Summer 2011, but logistically, it’s looking more like Summer 2012. There is only so many big blockbuster movies that can be released in the hot month of July, and 2011 is beginning to fill up fast.

Update: Michael Bay says “No Way” to Paramount’s 2011 Release Date.
