Paramount Bought Super Bowl Ad, Transformers: The Last Knight or Baywatch Rumoured to Air

Posted by Va'al Jan 29, 2017 at 7:08am CST 40,096 views
The rumouriest rumour this Sunday comes via entertainment website Deadline, reporting that Paramount has bought a Super Bowl (taking place on February 5th) ad space for 30 seconds. In previous years, the Transformers live-action movies have received attention in those very same spots - but now that we already have a teaser trailer and a number of TV ads, will there be enough interest to show more during the event? Let us know what you think in the Energon Pub!

Paramount will advertise (we think it will be Baywatch, although it could go with Transformers: The Last Knight). Universal also has committed to at least one spot during the game, with Sony in the pre-game show.

It'll be the Transformers/Baywatch crossover we all knew was coming.

Every time I watch the first trailer, and I see them exploring the giant sphincter-looking thing under the ocean, I think "Is that the Nemesis, or Unicron's butthole?" Maybe Unicron is traveling the cosmos to Earth to angrily retrieve his long lost sphincter.

Lucky you, I only have one wall. I never did recover from that stock market crash.

On notification from fellow Seibertronian Stuartmaximus, we went to find the source of some new information about the upcoming Super Bowl (this Sunday 5th February) and the rumoured Paramount slots during the adverts. According to Deadline, again, Transformers: The Last Knight is most definitely planned to be shown during the 'game'!

How different will it be from what we've seen already? Will it interest enough to warrant watching the latest instalment in the live-action franchise? Let us know in the Energon Pub, before, during and after the new clip emerges!

PREVIOUS: Word is leaking out about which movies will claim TV spots during the Super Bowl on Sunday. Paramount will run a Transformers: The Last Knight trailer during the game, while its anime adaptation Ghost in the Shell starring Scarlett Johansson will have a spot before kickoff.

It’s going to be interesting to see what Paramount does with Ghost in the Shell. The Melrose lot has employed a rather clever campaign for the film, “hacking” the Mr. Robot finale and running logo-less clips from the movie between commercials. Ghost in the Shell hits theaters on March 31. Transformers: The Last Knight will debut on June 23, leading up to the Fourth of July holiday stretch.

We will probably get one new scene or shot in it/

All the super bowl trailers have had new footage. 2007, Dotm like TLK had trailers before the superbowl spot and they had new footage so I don't see why this super bowl would not.

I don't think paramount would try to get an ad for the movie in the Superbowl if it was just going to be the first trailer in a different order plus they have already had two spots on youtube that did that and i don't see a third one doing the same.

You know despite what some people say about the movies seeing this screenshot once again reminds me about how fantastic the cgi is with the exception of AOE which was good but not amazing.


If the first trailer and this screenshot says anything it's that the CGI is going to be great in this movie.


I'm actually really excited to see this film in a few months especially since most of the details are still kept secret and we haven't seen major leaks like the Sentinel Prime is evil and kills Ironhide leak disaster from DOTM which spoiled a bit of the movie for me.

AOE had the best CG.

I would like to argue and say that DOTM had the best Cgi but seriously AOE had some of the worst when it came to the new designs it felt less real and was super fake looking at times.

Only times I thought it looked great were when they were using the old designs or designs that were less streamlined and smooth like with Ratchets death, Prime and Bee's evasion forms, any of the KSI Transformers besides Galvatron.

I like the designs for the main AOE cast and Lockdown but they did not look that real on the screen compared to DOTM since they were all super shiny and stuff and it was like with Tarkin and Leia in Rogue one where its not bad but you can tell its fake.

It's your opinion though so if you think its the best good for you but I'm just saying my opinion that AOE's Cgi effects were meh.

Bay said the trailer is dropping at 6AM.

No idea what time zone he's talking about, but I'm definitely staying up until it drops. It feels like Christmas Eve.
