I have no love for these movies.

If Bay-turtles pt 2 has any inkling of the future (moviegoers growing weary of crappy big budget action films), then I'm expecting this film to do less than the last Bayformers film.

Plus there are better alternatives next June.

Good for you don't turn this thread into a negative off topic crap storm like you did on Tfw2005.

Bay was not the director of turtles stop it with this false crap he was the producer.


Why do you even care anyways Young Prime the only posts I see with you anywhere on any site are negative bull crap that pulls everyone else down and starts arguments learn to control your mouth.

Because your post is really going to help stop that.

So yeah ... let's keep it about The Last Knight. Keep the personal attacks out of it.

So when he says "teaser", does he mean just another purple and red face with heavy breathing, or an actual, at least half-asses, teaser TRAILER? If it's just another stupid face I'm done.

Frankly I think the notion of these "teaser trailers" are stupid. A trailer for a trailer for a movie? ugh ...

FYI, Bay-turtles is under Platinum Dunes which is owned by Bay which flopped last Summer so my point that people are growing weary of lame big budget films still stands. If you don't like it then don't read #practicewhatupreach!

Better than the teaser for the teaser for the Fantastic Beasts movie - that was abject bs

[Kurona]

It makes sense. People have developed hype for trailers these days - and, admittedly, I do get excited for trailers of things I like - so cashing in on that for creating trailers/teasers for those trailers makes financial sense.

Still dumb though.

Unless you're making it like, a sort of series of trailers that forms a coherent story as supplemental fiction to the thing itself? But then that's more like a prequel. I could go for more movie trailers being prequels.

What part of keep it about The Last Knight did you fail to understand?

What do you expect out of continuously disrespecting fandom in the movie forum?

I honestly believe unless someone is part of the site staff any movie thread should be permanently locked since no one has anything good to say anyways never have for the last few years.


Just going to leave it at that not saying anything else.

Clearly you have a problem with following staff direction as well. Have a warning.

I'm really not excited for the teaser of the teaser really. I really don't get on the hype train either there unless it is something I can physically own. I'm excited about Megatron being back of course, kinda mixed over dropping the Galvatron name though I do prefer Megatron over Galvatron in the end depending on the continuity.

I doubt the fifth film will be too terribly thought provoking or cerebral. Frankly it'll probably be picked apart by something like CinemaSins or like that in the end like the previous films. I do hope it will be intelligent enough to at least be enjoyable with the 10 foot rule. I do feel like with the latest rumors and what not the films are trying to reinvent itself in a way. AoE did try to a bit as well I feel. Whether or not it was successful with it is entirely something else.

I'm just sticking to hoping for some solid basic narrative essentials, good, coherent plot, fleshed out characters - something that shows that the 'writers room' worked and was worth it, if it can accomplish something like that, I can start to get my hopes up and look to the future, but I won't write this one off until I see for myself that nothing has changed

I wish I could believe this "writers room" was a good idea, but considering Hasbro put the guy who wrote Batman and Robin in charge of it... it sounds like a frypan-fire situation.

Writing and characterisation isn't really what you go to see a Bay movie for. If you wanna see some really impressive CGI, some things blow up and a lot of action which will probably be as recycled from previous movies like all the other movies' action has been? Go for it. But you're not very likely to find anything resembling an interesting story or character.

I can agree with that.

Don't have to like it though....Flash over substance is losing its luster especially with studios proving that both can be achieved in blockbuster films these days... Doubt this upcoming Teaser will make me a liar but if it does then honestly I guess we all win.

Not true that guys has been removed from Transformers 5 not the writers room completely but he has no involvement with Transformers 5 anyways.


That or the Bee movie can't remember what the news said exactly.

Honestly, this is really how I feel. I do feel like the sequels are slow to improve, but certain aspects do make it better with each new sequel made. It's just going at a very marginal pace to improve overall. I don't know who's fault that specifically is at this point. Whether it is Hasbro, Bay, or the writers and it could be all of them having a hand in the slow to change aspect.

Looking for more in these films beyond them being action movies/popcorn summer flicks is kind of like looking for uplifting, constructive, and civil comments in the section below on YouTube videos.

Yep, this is accurate. It doesn't make it a no-go though both for those that appreciate those kinds of movies and even the general public though. I can appreciate popcorn movies, we all can. I do feel like the day we get a cerebral TF film domestically is the day we'll get one with humans otherwise less involved to not at all.

This week's update from the official Transformers Facebook page - even though most shooting for Transformers: The Last Knight is now over - comes in the form of one of the machines used in the physical effects for the movie, even with the presence of green screen around it. Michael Bay takes cast members Mark Wahlberg and Laura Haddock for a spin in the clip below, check it out!

Was Galvatron crazy? He basically just seemed the same as Megatron in the previous movies.

We was still kinda trying to get himself together for a while from what I remember. He at least wasn't his normal self for a while. In the previous movies he was more about intimidation and domination, while him as Galvatron seemed more "I gonna kill you! RAHR! I HAVE NO SOUL!"

Now that I think about it, since there seems to be a lot of time jumping in this movie, is it possible that Knight Megatron in this movie is actually him in the medieval times, and he's still Galvatron in modern times? Wouldn't it be cool to see past and present Megatron fighting together?

Some more news from Paramount's official YouTube account, as they share a clip of a wrap up party ..for the vehicles involved in the filming of Transformers: The Last Knight. That's correct, the cars used for the alt-modes of Bumblebee, Crosshairs and Barricade had a bit of fashionable shindig, with photo ops but no comment. Check out 'The Last Night' clip below!

[BluePhirePB]

Damn, those girls were hot!

[Va'al]

Is it over over for the filming of Transformers: The Last Knight? (Yes.) Director Michael Bay has taken to his own social media to thank cast and crew and London, as he heads back to the US, but the rest of the cast, from Anthony Hopkins, Mark Wahlberg, Josh Duhamel to Santiago Cabrera and Laura Haddock, also took some time to thank the shooting location, its people and more. Check out the video below!

Actually having watched the video, I think I saw Dino/Mirage's alt mode with Bumblebee and Hot Rod.
