Seriously??? Not a SINGLE transformation in the Trailer???
Celebrating 10 years of BAD Character and production Design, WORSE storytelling, and the egregious GUTTING of this proud Lore that has been kept alive by communities such as this?
This is what is happening to our beloved franchise:
Transformers(Missed the mark so many times, but still gave hope; it's "newness" was cool)
Revenge of the Fallen(BadBadBadBadBadBadBad movie)
Dark of the Moon(grammar, anyone? Still better than ROTF, got no benefit of doubt, tho)
Age of Extinction (Unremarkable, if forgettable. Morph-cube transforming? Uggghhh)
I doubt I'll even see this one in the theater. Don't think I can take it anymore. Thankfully, IDW has a clue about what it's doing...

I'm no huge advocate for Bay's films, but I find it a little ironic that someone who praises IDW would complain about the lack of Transformations in a TF Movie Trailer.

Touche', @o.Supreme. 
The IDW comics do a better job of utilizing, featuring(and respecting) the decades of Lore that this franchised has produced. I'll concede that they don't transform very often in some of the IDW books(which, is another item that is discussed in MTMTE)... But that's Comics; transformation can only be done so well in terms of sequential images on a page. The trailer is for a Transformers Movie; as in Motion Picture; and the (arguably) most Dynamic thing about Transfomers is the TRANSFORMING... Bad enough that they down-played the transformation sound effect(no, I'm not over that yet), but I have a feeling that this movie will just be "Age of Extinction 2"...
...a.k.a. Pointless.

I understand the dislike for Michael Bay but i'm glad they keep making these movies... it means continued interest in the brand and that means new toys 
We can take away alot from this trailer though as to where the story will go.
1. We know there is going to be 2 timelines, past and present (cool to me, 2 sets of characters)
2. These big planet sized set pieces have to reference Primus or Unicron (finally)
3. Prime looks evil with the purple eyes, probably corrupted. (cool flip if Unicron revives and champions Prime instead of Megatron)
4. Hot Rod is in this film, bet he will be a main character (could that yellowish face be hotrods?). I bet Hot Rod will be instrumental in redeeming possessed Prime.
5. That 2 headed dragon, its gotta be Predaking or a tribute to transmetal beastwars Megatron. (I bet the dragon is Megatron's alt mode in the medieval past timeline)
6. Onslaught is in the movie... Bruticus PLEASE!
7. There is some artifact tech piece that Merlin/Arthur will have, the key to cybertron perhaps?
8. The big transformer that swings down the sword and misses the guy is definitely Megatron, I saw people post and ask who that was... how can you miss that one?
I'll go see it in theaters... these movies have always been less about the story to me and more about the visuals, and I'm entertained by that. To see Bruticus, Hot Rod, Unicron on the big screen is too cool.

Just to say:
The dragon has 3 heads
And that artifact is (most probably) Excalibur, we have seen it in previous on set images.

The lack of transformation in a single trailer (especially the first one) does not indicate a lack of transforming in the movie (remember, the AOE trailers had transformations in them and we know how that turned out). Also, the point of this trailer was to emphasize characters/emotions and the intrigue side of the story. Transformations would have been nice to see, but they aren't necessary for the purposes of this teaser.

I think the planet is probably unicron because the setup is very similar to megatron's deal with unicron in that there is a destroyed robot floating in space that is suddenly under the control of a currently unknown entity ( in Optimus's case) or unicron ( in megatron's case)

Eh, I know lots of folks are excited for another feature film with the Transformers in it. But even if Bay isn't the primary force behind the film, his oar is still stuck in deep enough that it FEELS like he's still running the show. And while there's nothing really wrong with his movies, there's nothing really right with them either.
I may be wrong, only Time will tell, but the Bayverse movies have had enough 'meh' in them after four tries that I'm automatically wary. ALL the teaser trailers looked good. Then we sat in the theaters and were dished up substance-free explosion fests topped with Devastator wrecking balls.
So I'll wait for the reviews to come in, I think....

I am so hyped for this film! I don't care with what other think or say about it but this looks amazing! People have been saying that the movies suck due to the lack of reference to the source material, but technically the films are creating their own source material. I like the direction that they are going in And let me just say: that Megatron looks awesome! I really dig his look in this and hopefully he can have a larger and more crucial role in this. Optimus seems to have some red on his head when he's going against Bumblebee. It could be related to Prime's behaviour and the reason for his purple eyes. Can't wait until we see some more stuff!

Pretty cool stuff.
THe big debate seems to be what this planet is. My thoughts:
NOT Cybertron. In DOTM it was quite clear that Cybertron was considerably larger than Earth. Judging by the curvature of the planet in the movie, my thought is that Cybertron is AT LEAST double Earth's diameter...maybe 15-20,000 miles in diameter. This ship is barely twice the size of the moon.
Unicron: don't think so. This is a second trilogy (though apparently more connected in story than the first one). Introducing Unicron as this big of a threat at this point rather than saving him for the sixth (pentultimate, trilogy-wise) movie seems premature.
Unmentioned possibility to this point: Mothership of some kind. 'Con mothership? Or the Creators' mothership? It seems that the protrusions could very well be detachable ships of some kind. Along those lines is my last unmentioned possibility...
Unmentioned possibility #2: QUINTESSA! Why not? Quintessa in the cartoon was a pretty screwed up planet anyways. This could be the new version.
I have to admit, I was actually more excited by this trailer than I was for the AoE one. We'll see.

Seibertron.com is all about galleries, so for this first trailer of Transformers: The Last Knight, we went big, real big. We now have a gallery of 2689 HD images from the trailer. Since these are HD, there is the option for "super" images which are 1,920 pixels wide. We have a sample below from all the main scenes. Now you can all comb this frame by frame to make the most of this trailer. Is there anything new these images show you that you couldn't make out before? Let us know.

That shot with the sword missing Mark looks like Prime with his head down. Mark looks confident as if he’s seen a familiar face and doesn’t have a defensive stance. Shouldn’t be Megatron or any other villain. That of course, assuming that Prime hasn’t converted yet.

Looking at the stills, with all the movies' faults (which I do enjoy them, just they're far from perfect), no one can argue that there's no beautiful shots. The photographers and camera people do an awesome job and I think they ought to receive more attention for their contribution.

The Decepticons getting caught in those Baysplosions makes me worry that a lot of them will be killed off easily and early in the movie, I hope this scene isn't near the beginning and the new Decepticons get a decent amount of screen time, but I know I shouldn't expect it at this point.

While we're still letting the flavour of the teaser trailer for Transformers: The Last Knight settle, and opinions are being formed, we have another sidelook at a corollary piece of news from the footage shown. First of all, here's the trailer again, in High Definition:
You see that stadium, that destroyed, mangled, contorted piece of metal and field and concrete? Let me show you closer, with a screencap from our gallery (which you can find here):
As the local Detroit and Michigan press have also noticed, and are buzzing about, that is none other than old NFL Detroit Lions football stadium, the Pontiac Silverdome! Opened in 1975, home to the Lions until 2001 and host for a number of events, from WrestleMania to FIFA cups, to SuperBowls to NBA matches; it closed down, permanently, in 2014, and is still waiting to find new tenants. Must be nice for the stadium and the area to feature in the latest Paramount production, if anything, even if ravaged by Cybertronian battles - check it out in its former glory and current state below!

After all this time, and how bad AoE was, I admit, I'm in the same boat as you Dude.

Oh for sure. I know that this franchise has been around for so long now that G1 ain't the big thing everyone grew up with. People have now grown up with Beast Wars or RiD (original), the Unicron trilogy and indeed, the movies. Hell, I might not feel the movies but they get fresh blood into the fandom. Never a bad thing.

Honestly the Bay TF films are decent enough action flicks, as for being decent enough TF flicks I can only hope they improve. That said, I liked the trailer and am excited for the film. I can only hope Megatron does not disappoint. Also, random musings and speculation: Was that...Unicron? It looks like Unicron. Optimus with purple eyes? Wonder if that has something to do with Unicron and Dark Energon getting thrown in the mix here. Also, please make Megatron kick some butt again.

My understanding of this movie is that it is a sequel, essentially, to AoE. THreads that started in that movie continue in this one. That's unique in this series. Pretty much all three of the early trilogy are stand alone films.

Soooo...Unicron's in it! I wonder how much it took to convince Bay to finally put him in the movie? also looked like either a Unicron created Prime(Nemesis Prime) or the genuine article being controlled by Uni himself! looks like this version of Unicron will prob be destroyed by the Omega Lock(Stonehenge) rather than the matrix! big questions are...who's doing the voice of Unicron & will it sound like him? also will he have a robot mode? & what will the toy be like? & what class size?

OK, I was just confused by which movie you were referring to as the penultimate film. If the trilogy starts with Age of Extinction then the penultimate film is The Last Knight.First-Aid wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:Are you saying this second trilogy started with Age of Extinction or is starting with The Last Knight?First-Aid wrote:This is a second trilogy (though apparently more connected in story than the first one).

So after some careful inspection of the teaser trailer, I've found the following:
- In the scene where they show Cade running to save Izabella from the explosions, the Transformers caught in the explosions are Megatron, Onslaught, a Transformer who looks like a movieverse Whirl, and a Transformer who looks like one of the dreads from DotM but with chrome instead of black.
When they show Optimus and Bumblebee fighting, it is found that there is red on Optimus' face where there should not be any. That could mean that it could be related to what has caused him to become evil or it could just be blood ...

And, well, some of us have made jokes about it being Gobotron.
Posted by Sabrblade on December 8th, 2016 @ 10:34am CST
We don't know that it is Unicron or not. Others think it could be Cybertron after it was partially ruined in Dark of the Moon, or that it could be the home domain of the Creators.Stuartmaximus wrote:Soooo...Unicron's in it!
