We've seen Slog in an earlier trailer.


The Brontosaurus? Which trailer? And has either Slash or Snarl shown up yet?


To be honest, I don't even know which trailer had Slog in it. There's so many different ones, and I'm not about to go hunting through the archives to find it.

As far as I'm aware, Slash has not, but I thinking Snarl could be barely seen in the same trailer as Slog.



I have been following this movie a lot and even i have not seen them.


You must mean those trading cards that were leaked.


Nope, it was a trailer. It was in an urban environment, with Crosshairs and the rest of the Autobot cars up front and a handful of the Dinobots in the back charging right behond them.




Ahhhh that spot

it was Crosshairs and Drift driving with Scorn behind them Strafe flying Slug beside them with Grimlock behind Slug while they were charging.

Take a look at the minute-long spot below, which has been uploaded on the Seibertron.com YouTube channel!

The only thing new about this trailer is the very end with the narrator giving the film's date instead of saying "Coming Soon". Aside from that bit, it's the exact same trailer as this and this.

It's more like people can't think for themselves when a critic says a movie is ****, when it's really not. They just want to jump on the bandwagon and hate it because it's the cool thing to do. When I say DOTM is the greatest movie of all time, that's me thinking for myself. But people like you, those who label it in such a way, are all of one hive mind. I have the audacity to call the movie what I see it as, but you, you're just regurgitating **** that's been said plenty of times, before; with absolutely no proof to your claims, no less. Who's the one who can't think for themselves, here?

Li Bingbing on Challenges of Filming Transformers: Age of Extinction

Postby Va'al » Sat Jun 14, 2014 5:28 am

Motto: "Till All Are Pun!"
According to a recent piece on Yahoo! News Singapore, one of the biggest Chinese stars appearing in Transformers: Age of Extinction, Li Bingbing, did encounter some difficulties working with the mostly Anglophone cast and crew on set. We don't have that much to report, but you can read the article here, and relevant sections below.

Image


"I am not a native speaker, but I had to perform as if I am fluent in the language," said Li. "I had to really memorise my dialogue well."

However, the tendency for the production to change the script made the experience more difficult and challenging for the actress.

In addition, Li also revealed that she had to make several changes in terms of her character's name and overall appearance.

"I portray a CEO in the film and they gave the character's name, Liao Xiumei. It's not that the name is not good. It's just that it sounded weird. So I changed it to Su Yueming instead," said the actress.

An actress who does not speak English fluently has to learn everything perfectly in English and give the impression she does, but the script keeps changing. That sounds challenging for anyone, to me.

I don't doubt that, but remembering lines, dealing with script changes and so on is part of any actor's job. If she couldn't cope then she was miscast. However, the real reason for her casting is obvious.

That she had to overcome these difficulties is kind of a sign that she did cope. It's not like the article says the challenge was as impossible for her to deal with as you're making this out to sound like. It was just tough for her, plain and simple. Lots of actors face hard tasks in their acting that they have to overcome.

Your inference is incorrect. One only has to look at Jackie Chan for an example of an actor who overcame their challenges, and in a lead role as well. The current trend for major films to shoehorn in scenarios and actors to promote the film in certain markets has the potential to hobble the story for the sake of consumption. This is the reason for her casting, otherwise it would have been simple to find someone with the right gender and look who had none of her "challenges".

An actor who views certain acting experiences as challenging is "actually acting." Please look up Li Bing Bing's acting career before commenting. Ignorance is not appreciated. She's a great actress in every way. She's not the biggest Asian star because she can't act in movies. Speaking a foreign language presents difficulties for everyone. But I wonder. Why can't she speaks Chinese and have it dubbed? It is shot in Shanghai/china. Whatever the situation. She is not "miscast!"

Yeah, that could have been a good solution, at least for the scenes where it's just her and other Chinese characters. If she spoke in Chinese to the other actors who are supposed to be American (Cade, Tessa, etc.) it wouldn't work.

And is she the "biggest Asian star?" I find that hard to believe, true it may be. I haven't heard of her before, and I do know Jackie Chan, Michelle Yeoh, Jet Li, and a few others, though mostly because they came to Hollywood. But they had successful and accomplished careers in Asia before they did.

In the Asian communities, she's extremely big. She's in resident evil, and a few other American movies. In terms of acting, she's really good. International stars are usually well-known for action movies, and comedies making fun of each other (Rush Hour) :). Don't get me wrong, I love Jackie Chan movies. Check out his Chinese movies. He's a great actor. I suggest anyone still on the fence about her to youtube or check out some of her movies. Otherwise, wait a could week and judge for yourself.

But they had successful and accomplished careers in Asia before they did.


She was recently cast as blink in Days of Future Past X-men movie. Hollywood is making a big push for her as the go to Young Asian in a movie.

FYI to other posters, jackie chan would say lines in movies he did not know what it meant. for reference watch any jackie chan movie with bloopers.

President-prime wrote:An actor who views certain acting experiences as challenging is "actually acting." Please look up Li Bing Bing's acting career before commenting. Ignorance is not appreciated. She's a great actress in every way. She's not the biggest Asian star because she can't act in movies. Speaking a foreign language presents difficulties for everyone. But I wonder. Why can't she speaks Chinese and have it dubbed? It is shot in Shanghai/china. Whatever the situation. She is not "miscast!"


I know very well who she is, and you prove my point. She was cast specifically to sell the movie in Asia, like many other blockbusters are these days. I would have thought a challenge in acting in a Transformers movie would be something along the lines of interacting with giant robots that are not really there, etc.

In the end, are any of us here really going to watch this movie because Li Bingbing, Mark Wahlberg or hot actress of the week is in it? No. This is simply to get the non-fan audience in to watch the movie. I get that - it is a business after all, and there is nothing wrong with promoting a movie. However please do not expect me to care about her complaints about her "challenges" which have nothing to with giant transforming robots and everything to do with the business of film-making.

Wrong asian actress. X-Men DOFP features Fan Binbing who is 32.

Transformers AOE features Li Bingbing who is 41. They are almost 10 years apart and look very different from one another. Li Bingbing is a famous asian actress, but currently Fan Bingbing is faaaaaaaar more popular.
