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.

[Sabrblade]

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

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?

Don't spoil it for everyone

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 ).

[Va'al]

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.

[Tyrannacon]

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.

[Stuartmaximus]

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

That's what i was thinking

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

[Stuartmaximus]

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).

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

[Stuartmaximus]

Maybe this would've been better

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

[Kurona]

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

[Bronzewolf]

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.
