"Quite perfect, full no urine, I want to play 100 points!"

Cogman is fun.

Ok no more. I think I may now ban myself from this site for a week or so til I see the film hopefully next Thursday.


Oh and I don't know if anyone cares or has mentioned it already but tweeting the hashtag #Transformers on Twitter is followed by an automatic emoji of the movieverse's Autobot symbol.

With the Chinese premiere not too long ago, we can expect some new trailers that show a little bit more of what we can expect from The Last Knight. Courtesy from 9 Media on YouTube, we have a six minute compilation of several Chinese trailers following the Chinese premiere. The first one alone has a couple of new scenes; the audience and fans are treated to hearing Megatron for the first time, as well as Infernocus splitting up into his individual components. The other trailers are also worth checking out, as they have a couple of extended scenes that we have already seen.



With just less than a week to go, The Last Knight is gearing up to be one of the biggest movies of the year. Are you just as excited as we are?

Damn I love TLK Megatron.

Ok that's it. No more. NO MORE!

Unless something super weird or big happens I'm off here til I've seen the film. Take care, folks. Have a good week.

I'm with ya. I didn't even know it was coming out next week. I need to stay away now

[Big Grim]

I still love Frank Welker's Megatron voice.

[dragons]

this was the one i saw last night while watching littel big shots

[Cheesinator]

In homage to Shockwave in the DOTM trailers, it looks like we already get too see Infernocus's brutal demise in the trailers alone.

[SlyTF1]

This is apparently a new TV spot. I haven't watched it though. I'm done watching anything for this movie.

You don't actually believe that Infernocus would ever be some deep memorable character right?

He/They exist for the same reason Stormtroopers and other grunts exist and not ever complains about them.

[Deadput]

Paramount has uploaded a character Trailer that advertises Prime, Bee, Hot Rod, Hound, Cogman, Barricade and Megatron as well as some new footage of Infernocus.

Hey Barricade has a mouth!

[TurboMMaster]

Hey Barricade has a mouth!

I wonder is that means he will have some real dialoques this time around.

[Deadput]

Hey Barricade has a mouth!

I wonder is that means he will have some real dialoques this time around.

I mean he had dialogue in both movies he was in but to be fair in movie 1 he was all yelling but it made sense for him, in DOTM he did talk but he was using lines meant for Soundwave that were reused for Barricade but still he spoke.

It's very likely he will talk it's just the matter of how much he talks but then again you don't need the character to speak to make them a good one I mean many people like Blackout even though he only said a couple of Cybertronian lines.

[Deadput]

During the scene where Infernocus is combining I saw a familiar figure on the right of the screen.



Our lord and savoir Nitro Zeus the best con!

Also in the music video for the cover of Torches the scene where the Decepticons are caught in an explosion and additional Decepticon is in the background...Barricade who wasn't in the scene before.

[Deadput]

Bay's flickr account uploaded some high quality screenshots of the movie and some pictures of the premier nothing is spoilers at all at least nothing obvious from what I can tell.

An interesting fact the description of the screenshot of Bee taking down the two legged Trf tank drone confirms that the name of those drones are "Sentinels".

Here are a couple of the stand out ones including the one I was talking about.

[SlyTF1]

More of those "On the Set of Transformers" videos with Optimus and Hound.

[william-james88]

Paramount is going all out on this last sprint of movie advertising for Transformers:
The Last Knight. We have some new tv spots below along with some new HD images from Michael Bay's Flikr account, some promotional (and fictitious) behind the scenes footage featuring Hound and a great video featuring Calvin Johnson, Megatron, and his feud with Optimus Prime. We also finally have the confirmed running time to be 148m 53s by the British Board of Film Classification. Thanks to Seibertronians Deadput and SlyTF1.

[Sabrblade]

And not a single scorch mark to be found on the floor that Optimus shot.

[Crystiallic]

Does anyone have any info on the performer Janson Zhang from this event?

He's the performer of the ending theme song in Chinese release. He's actually got a wikipedia page, much to my surprise.

"Quite perfect, full no urine, I want to play 100 points!"

You might have guessed, that dude wanted to say, "It was quite perfect, didn't have any useless scenes (literally, it reads "urine point" as one uses it to take a leak and not miss much), I want to give it 100% score."

The following interview did call out the whole OP-turn-to-the-dark-side arc a "typical Hollywood ****" though.

[Deadput]

So Uk press screenings happened and some people uploaded the voice cast on places like IMBD and a few of them are spoilers.

These are official by the way.

Peter Cullen - Optimus Prime
Frank Welker - Megatron
Erik Aadahl - Bumblebee Matches up to what I heard from rumors.
John Goodman - Hound
Ken Watanabe - Drift (Good to hear that Ken's alright health wise.)
Jim Carter - Cogman
Gemma Chan - Quintessa
John DiMaggio - Crosshairs & Nitro Zeus (Hell yeah Best con voiced by one of the best voice actors!)
Omar Sy - Hot Rod (He's a good fit and he is also a legit French guy too)
Steve Buscemi - Daytrader Presumably this is the Junk Truck guy
Reno Wilson - Mohawk & Sqweeks (Makes sense since his previous roles were hyper or fast talking characters)
Tom Kenny - Wheels obviously this is Wheelie
Jess Harnell - Barricade (Nice to hear he is back)
Mark Ryan - WWI Tank (Interesting they don't say a name)
Steven Barr - Volleybot (This is probably the rumored Cuba Autobot who is one of the DOTM Autobots who is in Cuba playing "soccer" with Simmons)

Some of these are obviously code names or early names just like how in ROTf credits Demolishor as Wheelbot and Rampage as Skipjack or how DOTM called the Wreckers things like Amp and Target.

Very true, but it's still a little surprising to see a unique gimmick for the character unveiled in a trailer within a few seconds of said character getting annihilated.

[TurboMMaster]

Mark Ryan - WWI Tank (Interesting they don't say a name)

Maybe it's Warpath, I mean it fits perfectly. It is true that he is canonically dead in present day, but he could played some part in WWII.

The following interview did call out the whole OP-turn-to-the-dark-side arc a "typical Hollywood ****" though.

Maybe because it was already played few times already in other movies this year?

And not a single scorch mark to be found on the floor that Optimus shot.

He always tried to avoid collateral damage (Flashbacks from Mission City, Chicago and Kong Kong) Well, maybe now he is actually good at it

[SlyTF1]

Another IMAX behind the scenes thing. No new movie footage though.

[WreckerJack]

A Transformers: The Last Knight New Imax Featurette has been posted on Youtube. It bears the title “Imax Behind The Frame” and shows us some of the scenes as they are being filmed. Director Micheal Bay also shares his thoughts on 3D filming.

Transformers The Last Knight will be in theaters next week. If you'd like so save a few bucks off your ticket have a look at this offer from RedBox!
