My understanding of this movie is that it is a sequel, essentially, to AoE. THreads that started in that movie continue in this one. That's unique in this series. Pretty much all three of the early trilogy are stand alone films.

OK, I was just confused by which movie you were referring to as the penultimate film. If the trilogy starts with Age of Extinction then the penultimate film is The Last Knight.First-Aid wrote:Rodimus Prime wrote:Are you saying this second trilogy started with Age of Extinction or is starting with The Last Knight?First-Aid wrote:This is a second trilogy (though apparently more connected in story than the first one).

- In the scene where they show Cade running to save Izabella from the explosions, the Transformers caught in the explosions are Megatron, Onslaught, a Transformer who looks like a movieverse Whirl, and a Transformer who looks like one of the dreads from DotM but with chrome instead of black.
When they show Optimus and Bumblebee fighting, it is found that there is red on Optimus' face where there should not be any. That could mean that it could be related to what has caused him to become evil or it could just be blood ...

If there was ever a live action Gobots movie, I'd want whoever voiced CW Megatron to voic Cy-Kill. And..Oh I'm gonna get beat up for this but...oh thus is gonna be bad...I think Cy-Kill might be a better leader than Megatron! There, I said it! And now the pain follows...

Clancy Brown has always been my pick for a new Cy-Kill. Bernard Erhard's original Cy-Kill always struck me as sounding like a sillier version of DCAU Lex Luthor.Decepticon Stryker wrote:Sabrblade wrote:We don't know that it is Unicron or not.

Oh, I loved Brown's portrayal of Mr. Freeze in The Batman. Actually, in that he sounds like Cy-Kill whispering. Just replace it with a synthesizer (or whatever they u to do that mechanical sound) and you'd have Cy-Kill.

I can't... right now with that statement in this thread. Such stuff is heresy to GLORIOUS Lord Megatron.

To me penultimate is the terminal movie, so the NEXT one would be the penultimate of this second trilogy.

Of course, all of Bayverse Movies trailers were promosing, but I think this can be at least a decent summer blockbuster movie.

I don't disagree, but he's kinda been like that since at least ROTF. Now the movies themselves are finally recognizing it... and apparently running with it. *sigh*JazZeke wrote:"Rethink your heroes."

Since the first film, the Autobots have always been really violent with the Decepticons. Optimus ripping grindor's head apart, Jetfire tearing out ravage's spine, the wreckers wrenching a soldier from his ship before drawing and quatering him, "GIVE ME YOUR FACE." Not to mention how the third movie ended with Megatron advocating a truce before Optimus performs Sub-Zero's fatality.
At the same time, at least since Revenge of the Fallen, there's been this con-current narrative where Megatron is trying to hatch and raise Decepticon children while they starve due to lack of energon. Heck, the whole plot of the 3rd film was about revitalizing cybertron.
Not saying whether this stuff is good or bad, just weird. It would actually be really interesting if the film acknowledged all the Cybertronian hatchlings that died on the Autobot's watch, instead of a couple throwaway scenes the point out their existence.

Optimus goes into space and fights the Quintessons. A gravely injured Prime floats in space near Unicron. Unicron turns Optimus Prime into Nemesis Prime and sends him back to Earth to retrieve an artifact that will make Unicron more powerful. Prime defeats Bumblebee but Hot Rod "lights their darkest hour".

Second of all, the big problem with this Transformers trailer is the same problem with all of the Transformers movies. Not enough actual Transformers and way too much of humans I really don't care anything about
I haven't actually gone back to time this but I feel like the bots have been getting more screentime in each subsequent movie.

People have been saying that the movies suck due to the lack of reference to the source material, but technically the films are creating their own source material. I like the direction that they are going in And let me just say: that Megatron looks awesome! I really dig his look in this and hopefully he can have a larger and more crucial role in this. Optimus seems to have some red on his head when he's going against Bumblebee. It could be related to Prime's behaviour and the reason for his purple eyes. Can't wait until we see some more stuff!
If the G1 cartoon is the source material, A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur's Court.
And Dark of the Moon would have been better if the Decepticons captured Optimus, attached his arm with blaster to a building, and turned the rest of his parts into an alligator.

Where would they have put Decepticons if captured? They didn't have a ship with a brig, they didn'thave a a base with holding cells or anything and in later films the autobots reveal they won't share technology only knowledge.
And it's the transformers war in the real world. A war that's spanned millions of years that's lead to their planet demolished and their race in small number. The Decepticons enacted genocide on not only autobots but other species. Even in our own history we don't clock out enemies in the back of the head during a war and drag them away.

And the bots have progressively been getting more screen time. Plus, I'm glad we're gonna have Wahlberg with Lennox and Epps. Those are 3 good humans for the films and, without Cade's daughter, will be a bit more focused then sporadic human-wise.

Yeah it will be a good trio and the young girl hopefully does a good job.

ANYWHERE you're from you'd beat the shit of a kid that says anything he says in the last movie. "She knows how to work a stick" yeah that's when later on you ask Bee to transform before he gets out of the car. That's probably why he and her are not in the film. Him mostly I'd say.
