Transformers: The Last Knight Filming in Isle of Skye, Scotland

The movie's going to be ridiculous...

Great, so now Michael Bay not only wants to ruin Transformers, but he now wants to ruin Arthurian legends (Tristan & Isolde represent!) as well.

This should be exciting! Kinda like "A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur's Court"!

Be little more specific you talking transformers animated, prime, energon, cybertron, generation one, beast wars, beast machines, robots in disguise, headmasters, victory force,

It looks like live action of generation one all we need is starscream to return for deception ride on top of him in jet mode and joust against autobot hound in truck reiactment of generation one cartoon episode,.

Glad bay doesn't make humans going on cybertron without space suits shown in generation one that be ridiculous

I'll go with besmirching the good names of Beast Wars, Animated, and...wow, Hasbro has really helped put out a lot of crap for media. Even BW and Animated have their lowlights. Best to just stick with the Hasbro philosophy: toys moneys matter; quality shows, movies, books, games, etc. not so much.

Transformer pretenders!

He is bumblebee!

It got jumped the moment Bumblebee pissed on a guy.

So the previous film opening to the Dinosaur era wasnt shark jumping enough?

This. Shark equaled jump.

Execs: How do we make a new TF film?

Writers: fucking dinosaurs.

A human knight? What the hell is going on with this movie? This theme seems so darn confusing (and don't even give me the junk about the one episode in season 2 when they went back in time. You know Bay hasn't watched that stuff).

I swear it's almost getting to be like Bay was sitting up one night watching HBO and caught an episode of Game of Thrones and was like "You know what, swords and knights would be awesome with robots. And explosions."

I'm not even sure, from a movie stand point, if Transformers is even "TRANSFORMERS" anymore. I've completely lost the theme. I mean, in the movie verse, has it really been established why Autobots and Decpticons are actually fighting in the first place, and why they seem to continue to do so with the death of one of the army's leader, multiple times now? I mean, what are their motives anymore?

Ebonyleopard wrote:A human knight? What the hell is going on with this movie?

Yeah, it's almost as nonsensical as the primitive human hunter from ROTF, or the 1969 human astronauts from DOTM. Humans should totally stay out of flashbacks and backstory scenes that take place in the Earth's past!


(yes, Deadput, that was sarcasm, FYI)

Seibertronians, thanks to Seibertron Staff member xRotorStormx, we have lots of additional TF5 vehicle mode shots for you! While she was down at the Woodward Dream Cruise, she noticed some familiar faces...such as Hound (with his many, many bumper stickers), Bumblebee, the still-unknown rusty VW van, and Optimus Prime himself! Check out her photos down below, and then tell us in the comments: what do you think about the new alt-modes? Do you have a favorite? Who do you think that VW bus is? Speculate below!































And, as always, there's a lot of movie news coming, so keep your optics and audio sensors tuned to Seibertron.com!

I like Ironhide's alt. mode. If the next toy isn't a POS, I might end up getting it.

Seibertronians, we fall back to the official TF5 Instagram again, where they've posted a quick look inside what appears to be everyone's favorite yellow autobot, Bumblebee! You can see this was taken while Bee was still in Detroit filming, because the alley in the background is remarkably similar to a set piece they posted just a few days ago. (Which is also mirrored below!) So check both photos out then tell us, what else can you make out of these photos? Is there any small detail we missed? Is the inside view even of Bumblebee? Is it Drift? Is it Hot Rod? What do you think?

Seibertronians, another one of tonight's TF5 stories is a small round up of all the photos from the official TF5 Instagram having to do with the military! It seems the cast has been training hard with the Navy Seals! Not only that, but they've been filming at the Luke Airforce base in Arizona! Does this potentially mean the return of Starscream? Or does it predict the appearance of the seekers!? Why is all the cast training with the seals? Just in preparations for the roles, or are they all involved in the military in the film? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!

Seibertronians, We've saved the best for last. Rounding out our night of TF5 coverage, we wanted to share with you the gigantic water stunt that the official The Last Knight Instagram posted. It is quite amazing to watch, and see just how real even these movie's productions can be. Check it out below, and tell us in the comments if you noticed anything we didn't! There's a lot of little detail in these types of videos, so anything could be accidentally (or non-accidentally) revealed!



And, as always, thank you for keeping your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for all your latest Transformers news and reviews!

Hound's bumper stickers are hilarious: "Gun control means using both hands."

jays bay cant even do a twitter vid without a sunset in it !

That's way too many humans for a Transformers movie.

Ironhide died in DOTM.

Background extras and film crew members?

Woops, I meant Hound.

Interesting prop can be seen here:



Also in the video, when you see this vehicle, it briefly scrolls down and you can see it has "Titans" written on the side. I couldn't pause it in time to screen-shot it though.

The giant black cylindrical disk thing with Cybertronian-like writing.

What is this, a Space Bridge for ants?

Whatever it is, it's Cybertronian. Also, that thing they're standing in front of in that shot does look awfully like a metal pyramid, right? Maybe that shot is on Cybertron? Or maybe it's a lost Cybertronian city? Whatever the case, it sure does remind me of the Giza pyramid machine thing from RotF that the Fallen was trying to use to harvest the sun. (I dunno what it was called, and I don't care.) I sure hope we don't get any more deserts.

You mean...the Solar Harvester? Wouldn't that have been easier to type than parentheses and a whole sentence?

"Star Harvester" or "Great Machine" ("Solar Harvester" was an error of my own fault that still haunts me every time it crops up ).

Sabrbalade was wrong?!

I was mostly just busting chops. But technically, the sun is a star, and Harvester is more than 50% of the name, so you're not entirely wrong.

It's more that I inadvertently created a term that was passed off as official when, in reality, the term was product of my delirious imagination misremembering a name that never existed in the movie that my mind had, at the time, been deluded into thinking was indeed given in that movie. And now whenever I see that term resurface, I can't help but feel haunted by it.

Just shows how brain-damaging the ROTF movie was.

I wonder who the Decepticon Volkswagen van is supposed to be.

Kinda weird for a 'Con in Bayformers to pick that as an alt mode to me, but I seem to recall DotM had a garbage truck and pickup truck being picked. It's not either a super sports car or government/military vehicle of impending death.

That's what i was thinking

& maybe a touch of Madmans Paradise(if Merlin is in it)

Erm...haven't you even watched the previous movies? coz one of them had scenes almost identical to Ultimate Doom & Megatrons Master Plan! so Bay must've seen those to incorporate that into the movie

Maybe this would've been better

No. Cap would just make Optimus look bad (or worse than normal) by comparison.

They did have that crossover between IDW Transformers and Avengers a good few years back.

Everyone LOVED that, right?


In any case do these recent pics lend any more credence to Merlin being in this? 'Cos that's weird. And may possibly be the most likable thing about the movies so far

Seibertronians, are you ready for some more TF5 news? Well, we've got some!

First, according to his Instagram, Michael Bay has a new camera! This one's special because it's been custom built for him by the camera company RED! It's got some cool details, including a special TF5 Megatron medallion on the side! He's shared a video of him using it on a Victoria's Secret Campaign he's currently working on in Paris! Do you think he'll use it for The Last Knight? Check it out below!

-----------Video goes here----------------

Next, we've got a bunch of new photo and video from the Transformers set on the Isle of Skye, in Scotland, that we reported on earlier. These new angles come to us from Buchanan Photos, and Michael Bay's Instagram. The photos show that same actor (who is speculated to be Merlin, as per the rumors) riding his horse across the Isle, with more helicopter shots, as well as some pictures of the crew, and a better look at staff that may or may not be a little alien in origin...



The video, on the other hand, shows Michael Bay on location in Scotland (wearing a pretty cool hat, if I do say so myself), showing just how scenic it is up there.

--------second video here------------


So, what do you think of the filming in Scotland? Does it confirm the Arthurian rumors going around? If it's true, what other rumors do you think are legit? Let us know in the comments! And, as always, keep your optics and audio sensors tuned to Seibertron.com!

Thank you Michael Bay for proving you will use any excuse to show a sexualized woman.

Lol Yep. "We're selling Panties with it" is my favorite line. Legendary

Moreover, it's classy.

Citizens of Seibertron, news had broken, thanks to the website VG Film, that the next stop for the TF5 filming crew will be Norway! Yes, after they wrap up on the Isle of Skye in Scotland, they'll make their way east! Locations seem to include Pulpit Rock, Atlantic Road, and Trolltunga.

The filming is set to include a crew of 50 or 60 people, which is larger than the crew currently in Scotland, but none of the Actors themselves are set to appear yet. After Norway, the next stop for filming will be back west, to London, England! It's interesting how the filming has had such a specific focus on London.

The filming in Norway will take place anytime after October 2nd, so be sure to watch Seibertron.com for updates and set photos!

What do you think they're going to film in Norway? Other Transformers fans have noted that you can easily see the northern lights very often in Norway...Will that play into the movie in any way? What actors do you think will be appearing? What about Sir Anthony Hopkins? He joined the cast a while ago, but has yet to make an appearance on set (as far as we know). Leave your thoughts in the comments below!

And, as always, keep your optics and audio sensors tuned to Seibertron.com for all the latest Transformers New and Reviews!

Lots of people will try to criticize Mr. Bay, and in the end, they will end up using his technology/ideas...

I respect his job, always out of the box!

BERSEKAEL wrote:Lots of people will try to criticize Mr. Bay, and in the end, they will end up using his technology/ideas...

His technology is one of the few legitimately praiseworthy things about the movies.
