This is the Movieverse. The Dinobots-That-Aren't-Grimlock will probably be background characters with no personality.

At least they all transform in the movie (Hasbro said they all do at toyfair)

I don't buy that. Hasbro may have been giving out unconfirmed information from the studio, or things changed in production, or outright lied to us, but I don't think any dinobots but Grimlock are going to transform. Their toys look too smooth. They don't have movie-level transformations, they don't have any fake parts, they are quite straightforward, and their heads especially do not conform to the movie aesthetic. I won't believe that the dinobots transform in the film until I see them do so. They may transform in ancillary media, like comics and whatnot, but I doubt they do so in the film, with the probable exception of Grimlock.

Listening to Battle Cry. As much as I like LP... I find this song much better than anything in the first 3 movies.

Okay, I don't care anymore, I'm just gonna' come out and say it:

Am I the only one here who keeps reflexively thinking "Imagine Dragons" is the name of a kiddie show involving flying puppets for a few seconds before connecting the name to the band, no matter how many times I hear them? I guess it's been over a decade since I stopped giving a crap about any contemporary music, so it all blurs together enough that other associations seep into my consciousness; in this case, TV ads for Dragon Tails live shows.

Oh, and awesome song, yes.

Whenever someone mentions Imagine Dragons, it makes me think of I Fight Dragons, and then I'm disappointed, because they aren't I Fight Dragons.

I'm a big LP fan myself but I have to agree that this song is better suited if they are, in fact, taking this movie franchise in a different direction. LP did a great job but there at the end they were shoe-horning a song off their album at the time into the DotM line-up which, in my opinion, was just a stroke of luck more than anything else that they had a song that fit so perfectly. I think having a new group tailoring a song specifically to the new movie is the way to go if they are really taking the Transformers down a different road than the first 3 movies.

You're not. I used to watch Dragon Tales when I was a toddler, and now I'm stuck with the exact same problem.
The song itself is excellent. It fits the tone of the movie perfectly.

I'm not that impressed with the song. It's not bad, but it's not better than "New Divide." That was an awesome song.

We know that Imagine Dragons will be working with Michael Bay and his team for the shortly arriving Transformers: Age of Extinction soundtrack - and their Battle Cry single is being released right now! We have also heard that Steve Aoki will be collaborating, and Steve Jablonsky will return for the score. But in additional news, it appears that EDM hit Skrillex will also feature in some way in the movie's sounds, according to Billboard. Read more on this below, and head here for the full story!

In addition to being on tour into August, Skrillex is currently working on sound design for the next Transformers movie, creating "the craziest Skrillex sounds I could ever make." He also has other film scoring projects in the offing, while he and good pal Diplo have been making some new music together as well.

Im ok with this

Skrillex... I think that's the name of the stuff I use to clean my toilet.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

But seriously, this is a definite negative.

Skrillex is going to do the sound effects for the transformations.

Skrillex + Battle Cry = Sucky start to the soundtrack. Yay.

Finally listened to "Battle Cry"... have to say, Linkin Park could do better. Nothing can top "New Divide".

Somewhat off-topic, but has anyone here listened to LP's latest song, Guilty All The Same?

I love that song!

Not content with putting his music in Sonic the hedgehog, he's now in Transformers!? Quick run Star Wars and G.I. Joe before he dubsteps you!

If "New Divide" is better like you say, then doesn't that mean Linkin Park already did do better than Imagine Dragons' "Battle Cry"?

The official Twitter page of Transformers: Age Of Extinction Movie tweeted yesterday that fans will be able to purchase advanced tickets on June 3, 2014. Make sure you check your local theaters or Fandango for listings of showtimes for Transformers: Age Of Extinction near you.

Nice. Where at? They're already selling it by you?

When was this?

Courtesy of the YouTube channel CBMTrailers, we get a look at what appears to be a Russian new version of the international Transformers: Age of Extinction trailer! There is new footage shown, with better looks at Hound, the wolf-like creatures, Stinger's composite transformation, and a little more of Titus Welliver, Nicola Peltz and Jack Reynor. Check out the embedded clip below!

uhhh does anyone else think that this totally sounds more badass in Russian?!? LOL

buffalo/hamburg ny location regal crossing 18 theater,

ha yeah that's trailer I saw with melafcinat movie yeah it kinda does tougher in russian

A new Transformers: Age of Extinction TV spot is making the rounds, which once again features a little additional new footage. Check out the embedded video below courtesy of YouTube user OnFormers.

awesome spot. if you pause when grimlock smashes through the building you can see scorn running behind him

stinger looks like hes made of aluminum pop cans when he changes

Ultra Markus wrote:stinger looks like hes made of aluminum pop cans when he changes

yeah i know he looks weird lol

There's a close-up of someone's hand (possibly Savoy) wearing a big skull ring, which appears to have the saying "Memento Mori" on it. That's Latin for "Remember you will die".

This is the best foreign trailer I've seen in my life. Not because of the new scenes, but because it's in Russian!

Russian Optimus Prime sounds so gloriously awesome.

This movie is showing up better and better, I can't wait... At the same time I get depress/sad/mad with this crap toys we are getting, and no cyberverse/legion/legends...

Metro Prime wrote:Russian Optimus Prime sounds so gloriously awesome.

Peter Cullen would like a word with you.

And he sounds better in German.

Also, LMAO @ Hound and his cigar.

Is it just me, or is the guy doing Optimus' voice in Russian the same guy who was the older of the two Russian cosmonauts in Dark of the Moon? Sounds almost exactly like him, if it isn't him.

Hell Yes!!! I actually liked it!

Why is Hound smoking a bullet? I get that they're trying to make this wacky and over the top.. but that's dumb as shit. Kup having a cygar would make sense, but then he wouldn't flick it carelessly at a human since he needs it to live. Neat flashy visuals, but nothing more at the end of the day. And I could be wrong, but I am willing to bet the Dinobots never transform.

Why the hell not?

You just described 3/4 of Bayverse.

I will take that bet. What are the terms?

Hey got the new spot in better quality

Hasbro said that ALL of the Dinobots will transform in the movie back at toyfair.

Has anyone else noticed that Bumblebee seems to be making the same beeping sounds Prime 'Bee made, instead of talking through the radio?

Metro Prime wrote:Has anyone else noticed that Bumblebee seems to be making the same beeping sounds Prime 'Bee made, instead of talking through the radio?

No, I didn't, but I'd think it would be much easier to use beeps and whistles, rather than scouring through film and TV clips to throw together his little pieces of dialogue. I sometimes wonder if Bumblebee's script is a big part of the time taken to create this whole experience.

At the very least, I'd imagine it's a pretty unpleasant job.

You can kinda hear it in the trailer, right after Tessa shouts at Bumblebee and he jumps from that weird spaceship-looking thing, and when he's attempting to ride Strafe.
