I mean, I can see why. It is just that awesome.

A trailer hasn't given me those types of chills since Star Trek: Into Darkness

Previous news reports mentioned something about Cade and Lennox initially being on opposite sides in the movie.

Are you saying this second trilogy started with Age of Extinction or is starting with The Last Knight?

Sabrblade, where did you get that Lennox and Cade are on opposing sides? Is it from something official or conjecture?

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.

Soooo...Unicron's in it! I wonder how much it took to convince Bay to finally put him in the movie? also looked like either a Unicron created Prime(Nemesis Prime) or the genuine article being controlled by Uni himself! looks like this version of Unicron will prob be destroyed by the Omega Lock(Stonehenge) rather than the matrix! big questions are...who's doing the voice of Unicron & will it sound like him? also will he have a robot mode? & what will the toy be like? & what class size?

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.

So after some careful inspection of the teaser trailer, I've found the following:

There aren't any other easter eggs or other details that I found in the trailer, so now it's just time to wait for the next trailer.

That's funny. Are you a fan of a certain show involving a man stuck in space with some robots?

We don't know that it is Unicron or not. Others think it could be Cybertron after it was partially ruined in Dark of the Moon, or that it could be the home domain of the Creators.

And, well, some of us have made jokes about it being Gobotron.

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.

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.
