Transformers: The Last Knight Picture and Video Round Up featuring Bumblebee, Sqweeks and Excaliber

Did we already know there would be a convertible version of Bee? I wonder how that will look in robot mode if he transforms to/from it without reformatting?

I just realized that Bee's convertible mode is a completely different mode altogether, not just his normal look minus the roof. The convertible Bee has a different spoiler and side vents, among other things. I don't know if it'll impact his robot mode that much, but it probably means we'll be getting two different deluxe class Bumblebee figures from TLK ( which I am perfectly ok with )

Where in any of the movies was this character named Brawl? Toys and comics don't count.

Why don't they count? He's retroactively known as Brawl, it's pretty clear the name Devastator was just an error. Especially considering we have a completely different Devastator in the next movie.

The inclusion of Squeek bugs me no end. Another Transformer that looks nothing like a Transformer. Bad enough Drift is back. They'll probably bring back bloody Brains too.

Dino, Jolt and Arcee get killed off and they bring back the naff bots.

Probably bring back that damn Leo and Simmons next.

Squeaks actually looks like he can Transform at least and what is wrong with Drift and Brains just wondering?

Don't say Drift is racist please don't... at the very least Drift is getting a redesign with the new alt mode.


Dino was never coming back due to issues with Ferrari unfortunately, Jolt was a useless character shoehorned at the last minute as advertising for a car, and Bay hated Arcee from the start and I can see why since the only thing notable about her personality basically is that she is a girl and that's where it ends so she is a weak character most of the time.


If they were bringing back Leo or Simmons they would announced it by now if they were in the main cast but at the very least Leo is not coming back since he hasn't been relevant since ROTF in 2009.

Well it's not just toys and comics here that's saying it, even though that's where it primarily is focused on with the name. There's lots of other sources here calling the Con, Brawl. It ranges from the Writers, to Hasbro itself, and yeah the other external media like comics and what not. There's nothing wrong with you calling him "Devastator" though. I get the "movie purist" aspect totally. So I'm not attacking that with this post. Just showing there's multiple sources where it's been more or less confirmed by the powers that be from the writers that he is "Brawl". What you do with it is obviously your choice of course in the end and respectfully is entirely up to you and the name you wish to call Brawl/Devastator in your personal canon. I say this respectfully to you of course and to show there's an opposing/dissenting view.

Not in any of the distributions of the movie I've seen (I saw it in theaters when it first came out and own the DVD that I've watched quite a few times) did I see the name "Brawl" make an appearance at all. It's always been "Devastator" in the film. The source for it being "Brawl" is and has been primarily outside of the film itself. I have not watched the Blu ray though, but I doubt there is a difference there in any event in this case.

I have the blue ray and it's still Devastator.



Let's just say Devastator is Brawl's nickname that he prefers to call himself.

At least he doesn't hate everything like Bonecrusher.

Kinda reminds me of a fan theory I read somewhere about the Decepticons in the "Bayverse" being the more or less "misunderstood good guys" or more appropriately, anti-villains, than anything. Point is, I thought it made a compelling argument for it in any case. Kinda like how in certain Star Wars circles where people insist the Sith are actually not that evil. Heh.

Man, that Cybertron Con sure looks awesome. Not only do they have arguably the bigger Titans Return Reveals (Trypticon and Sixshot) but they also get an actual behind the scenes video of Michael Bay walking us through a scene he is shooting. This video was being filmed live in an enormous set for an underwater scene in a submarine with Mark Wahlberg. Even people who are just fans of movie making in general would get a kick out of it. You get a great idea of the insane scope of a film like this. I myself was very surprised with the amount of actors who stay on the set even if a scene does not have them (though it may simply be for this special live video), like Josh Duhamel who stops by to say hi. An even more interesting tidbit is an actress in full on motion capture which surprised Mark Walhberg's character while he is injured on the sub. Which CG character could that be? One last interesting note on a filming standpoint is how long the scene actually plays out and how Michael Bay would rather keep the actors working to get it right, rather than cut. The takes last longer than the shots, thanks to multiple cameras being used, which helps keep actors within character and cuts on continuity errors.

Regardless of how the story in these films play out, it is undeniable that Michael Bay runs a tight ship and seeing him at the centre of such an immense project, yet also being able to be up close and personal with the scenes being filmed gives you a good idea of why he keeps getting these projects. We were made aware of this video by fellow Seibertronian SlyTF1.

I dont know where you got that, there is no submarine transformer confirmed. Its just a scene that takes place in a sub.
