Has it been discussed how Megatron even exists in this movie while Galvatron is roaming around since the end of AOE? And he was formatted using the leftover head of Megatron from the previous trilogy? Is this one of those comic book scenarios where both Galvatron and Megatron exist in the same universe?

Short answer is "We don't know the answer to that yet."

Aw yeah because Michael this is my last one bay is going to be really honest to a room of people he doesn't know. Right.

Now your just in denial.

You do know that Bay is not directing the next movie right? Travis Knight is the next director.

The facts (Yes facts because I for one do my research and pay attention to all the news and interviews so I know what I'm talking about) are that 14 different scripts were made and one of them became TLK and it's more likely that a few scripts were combiner together.

It's impossible for there to be 14 different Transformers sequels not in the current schedule the movies are in right now heck Marvel films are starting to lose a little bit of steam now that Marvel films are just the normal thing that happens multiple times a year.

Not bothered reading all of that when it's wrong from the first sentence.

Anyone else think that pseudo-Quintesson looks a bit like Beast Machines Botanica?

I was thinking more of Quintus Prime:




Especially in this pic (seen on the left, between the big bulky wingled guy and the electrical dude):

i almost get a Borg Queen vibe from her

Thanks for the deep discussion it was great to attempt to explain things to someone with less knowledge on the subject matter.

Good chat hopefully you'll know more next time.

Knock if off both of you.

Deadput, learn to walk away from things.

So, these just went up:

Fellow Seibertronian Sabrblade has shared with us four new clips from the official Transformers: The LAst Knight YouTubr channel, part of their promotional campaign for the movie (which opens this June), in which four different kids - Gabriella, Georgia, Vlad and another - attempting to explain in their own words what Transformers are, what they do, and what the movies have been about so far. Still not enough? Each kid is dubbed over by none other than Optimus Prime - Peter Cullen himself!

Check them out below.

The Last Knight shatters the core myths of the Transformers franchise, and redefines what it means to be a hero. Humans and Transformers are at war, Optimus Prime is gone. The key to saving our future lies buried in the secrets of the past, in the hidden history of Transformers on Earth. Saving our world falls upon the shoulders of an unlikely alliance: Cade Yeager (Mark Wahlberg); Bumblebee; an English Lord (Sir Anthony Hopkins); and an Oxford Professor (Laura Haddock).

There comes a moment in everyone’s life when we are called upon to make a difference. In Transformers: The Last Knight, the hunted will become heroes. Heroes will become villains. Only one world will survive: theirs, or ours.

Feels really odd for kids to be describing these movies, considering their content...

[Whirlkick]

Haha

[Carnivius_Prime]

These are very cute and having Prime dub them makes them funnier.

Why would that be strange? A lot of us kids of the 80s watched movies that were totally not meant for kids like Aliens, Terminator, RoboCop and such. Hell, they even had toy lines for some of them back then.

I kinda love ock stimus prime!

Odder than grown men playing with toys? Lol

Seriously though who cares. The movies are fun, I grew up watching late 80s early 90s horror movies. They're action films, not porn, it's not that odd. My sister was 6 when the first one came out and its her favorite movie she's grown up on them.

This is the first time we've had content like this with kids promoting a TF movie. I'm honestly thinking that promotions like this, plus the inclusion of an actual teen character, and Squeeks makes me think they are actually aiming for a slightly younger demo with this film.

One of the things I liked about AoE is that is cut back the gutter humor somewhat, if this 5th film continues that trend I'm all for it honestly.

I just hope SJW don't go all PC and say the way the last girl spoke and was dubbed over is insensitive, or promotes stereotypes etc...

Totally agree. I don't mind the movies, I appreciate them for what they are and what they do and they grow the brand but I do wish they were aimed more toward a younger audience. I want a transformers movie that I could introduce to my kids like how I was introduced. This move feels like they are trying to go that way a little and I like it

Only thing that ever really bothered me was in DOTM when people were getting vaporized and turned into skeletons. That kinda messed me up. I don't wanna see the franchise that has been with me all my life showing that stuff.

[Kurona]

Now I've finally had the chance to watch these... this is hilarious and cute Fair props; the marketing for this movie has been pretty fun.

[Deadput]

Well if the imax footage and AOE are anything to go by the movies "humor" is toned down a bit compared to the first three movies.

Plus my generation and newer generations of kids swear every single day for no good reason and act pretty questionably they swear so much so that I've been starting to swear sometimes when I did not previously I mean it's kinda something when I only started to swear at 16 years old and that was only a few years ago.

Anyways the Bay humor is a bit less worse then say the unrestricted access kids have to Facebook, Twitter, Youtube (Jesus the comments), among other websites parents don't restrict I'm sure most of us can see that the world's sense of respect and manners is disappearing thanks to media and the rude people around them.

Sorry if this is off topic mods I'll edit the comment if it is.

[Va'al]

Kids Explain is a YouTube thing. It has very little to do with kids as audience.
The marketing team are tapping into What is Popular.

You know who I'd like to see in TLK? Even if it would only be a cameo... Cosmos would be nice. It would fit in with the idea of "earth's hidden history of transformers", if he was supposedly the basis of a lot of UFO sightings. I don't think the guy that turns into an awesome little flying saucer gets enough attention.

This film is already stuffed enough as it is with the Autobots which would make cosmos if he would be anything like his G1 version a bit meaningless.

Optimus, Bee, Crosshairs, Drift, Hound, Wheelie, Grimlock, Slug and maybe Strafe and Scorn return in this movie heck maybe Brains returns too since he was shown alive and well in AOE and is Wheelie's buddy.

And then for new Autobots we got Squeeks, Hot Rod, Cogman, whoever the red Mclaren is who might or might not be Dino, Canopy, 3 Mini Dinobots, The mark IV tank "Bulldog".

Then we got all those knights including what appears to be two factions with Steelbane, Skullitron and all those other guys on one side, The Inerfnocons that seem to be evil on Quintessa's side and Dragonstorm who I don't know where he belongs but is clearly important.

The Decepticons also have Megatron and Barricade returning with new guys Onslaught who might or might not be the Garbage truck con from DOTM as a returning character with a name, Hooligan, Mohawk, Nitro and maybe Berserker too if he is in the film.

Oh and all of those vehicles who might or might not be transformers as well including: The Mercedes dump truck, a Submarine (Somebody said it actually is a transformer), A silver LeEco LeSEE Pro Concept car and the Decepticon prison and the junkyard of dead robots in which not all of them are dead which is most likely where Barricade comes from.

This is the LeEco car from on set.


TLDR: there are a lot of Transformers in this film with one of the film makers stating this movie is going to have the most Transformers yet.

[Deadput]

Wanted to make a separate post for this but does anyone else think that Onslaught is the same guy as the DOTM Garbage con?




Their both based on the Long Haul body type and they bot have the same colors of green and white and turn into vehicles of similar mass although the Tow truck is long, the garbage truck has bulk or whatever you want to call it, also we never saw the Garbage con die and AOE does state there are still cons roaming about on Earth.

If nothing is stated in the movie either way I'm rolling with this as my headcanon.

[Nemesis Maximo]

These are way funnier than they deserve to be.

Also, I love how Va'al names the kids as Gabriela, Georgia, Vlad, and Another.

Personally I'm just gonna start calling him Reginald Francesco P. Montague.

Slightly off-topic, but if Cosmos getting a lot more attention is what you're after; IDW's ex-RiD/Transformers/OP has you covered. Turned him into one of my favourite characters

[Michael Alex Kawa]

Michael Bay has posted a picture of himself and actor, John Turturro on Instagram. John Turturro has played the role of Seymour Simmons in all four of the previous live action Transformers films.

This past week Michael Bay has been working with John Turturro on the latest film. Transformers: The Last Knight is most likely on the post-production stage at this time. Meaning that there could be some scenes that need to be filmed again and others that might need to be altered for the final piece.

Hmmmmmmm
John Turturro was not " in all four", since he was not in AOE.........just saying getting your facts right can't be that hard can it?

There is no need for this.

We'll be correcting the mistype, thank you for bringing to our attention.

You know the monster planet in the picture Hopkins is holding? Anyone else think the shape resembles a traditional Quintesson?

Just looks to me like the same honeycombed broken planet that we've seen in all the trailers, which is quite possibly Cybertron itself given the full contents of this trailer and the notion of the upcoming Cybertron playset being made in the TLK toyline.
