We had posted a clip of the Iacon race from Transformers One but it was in Portugese. Now, Paramount has released it in English. This lets us hear what Jon Hamm sounds like as Sentinel Prime. For those who had not seen it yet, there are TONS of cameos here both in the visuals and as callouts, like Brawn, Red Alert, Ratchet, Arcee and Ironhide.

Looks like a great movie. Wish we could watch it when it comes out.

[Solrac333]

I want to see him in another Fletch movie.

[Rodimus Prime]

With the second trailer, I've seen enough.

I don't want the whole damn movie to be spoiled before I see it.

Same here. I refuse to watch anything else until September 19th. I haven't been this excited for a TF movie since RoTF. I hope I won't be let down as bad.

For me, the most disappointing movie was AoE.
The Dinobots were wasted and the "shredded" transformation were dumb and lazy.

I think that for TF1 to be worse than any Bay movies, it would have to be done on purpose.

Paramount has released two clips, one for Brazil and one for Taiwan. The one for Taiwan is a trailer showing lots of new shots of Megatron (in his final form) fighting Optimus. The clip for Brazil is an uninterrupted sequence of the Iacon race. In it we see a lot fo cameos including Brawn, Red Alert, Ratchet, Arcee and Ironhide.

Enjoy!

Sideways would be an great character for these kind of cameos!

We have casting news our own Jon Bailey is in Transformers One. He’ll be voicing Soundwave, who he voiced in the Bumblebee film. Jason Konopisos Will be voicing Shockwave and Evan Michael Lee will be voicing Jazz. They each revealed this on their respective social media.



We also have a clip of Shockwave talking if any are interested as to what that sounds like.

[Emerje]

Congrats, Jon!

I've never seen Shockwave so.....emotive. Does not compute!

LOL, I'm not against it though. I'm not sure whether the VAs get to see the CG (even a rough "stickman" form, but still show enough of the motions of the characters) when recording the lines, but the emotive voiceworks match the movement on screen.

Thanks so much! Appreciate the post! Glad I can finally stop avoiding the boards to not risk breaking NDA! Haha!

Idk about Shockwave but for what I worked on I got to see the film from early stages to finished animation. The original sessions there was nothing on screen or just animatics, all just recording the lines of the script with direction. I didn’t have to act to picture til the last session.

So you had to redo all your lines over and over to different versions of the movie, depending where in the production process it was?

As for Shockwave being emotive, I like it as well. He's my favorite Decepticon ever, and I always liked the G1 comic version. He was very active and engaging in that, unlike the "computer on legs" persona he was always given in animation media.

Should have been May 8, the actual anniversary of the brand.

[Perceptor1996]

There's also an Elita-One. Hopefully also going up that day.

[chuckdawg1999]

Wow, TWO blasters and TWO daggers with Bee AND a rifle? Hasbro is going big with the accessories now.

Yeah... Hasbro probably thought they can't compete w/ May 4th, afraid of the Star Wars fans' wailing drowning out a TF celebration.

The fact that TT seems to be the real company celebrating the franchise with a ton of fans focused releases, projects & toylines. TT came out with hits after hits like Missing-Link, T-Spark, Synergenex, TF x Studio Trigger PV, premium niche products like Karakuri transforming OP statue, the Manju Netsuke OP, and even an exhibition shows/museum and more (Godzilla, Monster Hunter, Macross, etc.) What does Hasbro have!?

I'm not too mad, I love my TFxTMNT Party Wallop (the joy this product gives me more than justify it over most Leader class figures), and there's the Knight Rider crossover coming soon too, but each are just celebrating their "coincidental" 40th anniversary, so each was more of a no-brainer collab than Hasbro really thought of something special for us fans or the TF franchise's own 40th anniversary.

So, hopefully Sept 17th can prove me an idiot and make me (and my wallet) cry with joy!

[Tyrannacon]

Well its good Transformers gets a day and its so close to the new movie's premier where they can do a tie-in with it. I'm still celebrating October 15th as Decepticon Day because of the original cartoon though.

Transformers One is just a few weeks away and Paramount has releases a new clip. This one is more on the humorous side with us seeing that Bee will be saying his Badassitron joke a lot more.

I know I've heard positive buzz about this, but all these years of waiting for a new animated film to hit the heights of the original series or beyond, and this is the BEST they can come up with?

For one thing, the designs are very chibi and unappealing, and the humor is complete slapstick and very meta / will not age well.


I just don't see who this is targeted at? You can make something appealing to all age groups without completely aiming for the little little kids. If the characters in the storyline is good, kids will get it. X-Men 97 was a prime example of bringing back a series and making it appealing to modern audiences. This is just pandering to the demographic. I'll support it just because it's a transformers property in some form, whether I rent it off Amazon or go to a theater, but I'm tremendously disappointed with the end result. I don't think we're ever going to get a worthy follow up to G1.

Oh boy, a Geewunner! This'll be fun.

Those be some pretty low heights.

For one thing, the designs are very chibi

That is not what "chibi" means.

and the humor is complete slapstick

Not what "slapstick" means, either.

I just don't see who this is targeted at?

All ages, of course.

You can make something appealing to all age groups without completely aiming for the little little kids.

I've yet to see anything in these trailers and clips aimed squarely at little little kids. No one's learning their ABCs or how to count to 10 or having a singalong. This ain't Sesame Street, here, and certainly wouldn't allow the word "bada**" to be spoken in front of that age group.

If the characters in the storyline is good, kids will get it.

Couldn't agree more, cuz what we got here are good characters in the storyline.

X-Men 97 was a prime example of bringing back a series and making it appealing to modern audiences. This is just pandering to the demographic.

So too is X-Men 97 pandering to its demographic.

I don't think we're ever going to get a worthy follow up to G1.

GOOD! Cuz we don't need one.
