Transformers Dark of the Moon DOTM trailer debuts today at 4pm EST

The foggy pic had a Shuttle in the background.

Could the shuttle really be a transformer?

Make sure you check back later today at 4pm EST to view the teaser trailer at michaelbay.com.

Actually there was a mistake. The teaser will debut on Apple and Michaelbay.com at the same time at 7 pm (EST). The forum admin confirmed the confusion.
So 5 hours to go.

DAMN, have to wait longer? lol

I'm doubting this will happen, it was supposed to air on ET last night. But, no show, fool me once shame on you... fool me twice, I give up.

HA! Same here, if I can't do somthing on a second try, I just give up.

Does the image of the space shuttle keep getting clearer as time progresses, or is that just my imagination?

Worst director and movie? I wouldn't say that, I'm sure Uwe Boll has a movie in the for 2011

UPDATE: Thanks to several Seibertronians for pointing out that MichaelBay.com has changed the time of the trailer's debut from 4pm EST to 4pm PST (7pm EST). Check back in about two hours to check out the teaser trailer.

As someone already pointed out earlier: The picture is getting less fuzzy in time. I checked the source code and there is a Javascript applet running over the picture and its programmed to "fade in" as time passes by.

$(document).ready(function(){
$('header').delay(0).fadeIn(2000)

Bad part is, the applet and the picture are running from the server so when cant get the original picture before the clocks ticks his self out.

They did all this trouble for just a picture probably the content of the picture will be of significance as explained in the trailer (this confirms the earlier descriptions as what should the trailer be about):

The space shuttle fits perfectly in the Rumour about the trailer being about the Moon Landing and then going in side one of the transformers

I'm hoping for a different trailer then what is rumoured, I would like to see some action that was recorded in the US cities and some early renderings of some of the transformers and not yet again a Mars landing kinda teaser that we had with the first movie, although that was cool back then as we didnt knew what we were getting.

What did the ROTF teaser show? Believe it or not, I've never watched it.

That was a Great teaser!
It showed us alot, the teaser really hyped everybody for the movie, it was quick glimps of some actions scenes. They also showed some transformers (new ones aswell, ravage and demolisher.

Watch it here:

Damn, then why are they showing such a short one for DOTM?

I_AM_MEGATRON wrote:What did the ROTF teaser show? Believe it or not, I've never watched it.

It showed alot more than this teaser is said to show. If you mean the Superbowl teaser, it showed the Decepticons crashing into the ship, Sideways crashing through the building Ravage, Lenox pointing at somthing, Sam rolling on the ground on sand, Demolishor slaming his fist through a helicopter, Megatron hitting Sam, and Makayla screaming, and Optimus jumping on Demolishor off the bridge.

If you mean the OFFICIAL teaser, it showed alot too. Most of the stuff I said above, but it showed Demolishor actually transforming, Bumblebee shooting things, Sam being pinned down by Megatron,and a few more things that I forgot.

You be trollin.

I fiddled with the position of my monitor to get a better look at the image. It's just Bay directing and speaking through his megaphone with the shuttle in the background. Oh, and there's some staff members off the right side with their back turned towards us. So, yeah, nothing special.

Oh yeah oh yeah it's -- What? Shhhh...do you feel that? I said SHHHhhhhhhhhhhhh! ...listen...feel the ground...it's coming . IT'S COMING PEOPLE!! IT'S COMING!!!!

HECK YEA BABY LETS DO THIS....................AUTOBOTS TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT !!!!!!!!!!!

What? It was supposed to be on there the other night and nothing happened!

ConBotFormer wrote:Wow, I think Bay's site crashed due to so many people going on it at once. MUST SEE TRAILER!!!

OR, it crashed from the awesomeness of the trailer.

Just saw it, the astronauts find a ship or something on the moon, and they showed one transformer in it.

On Michael Bay's site's forums, they're saying it's currently up and working on the itunes trailer thing.

Its also suppose to be up on etonline, looking now.

Its 7:16 in the Pitt, the sites not crashed but it isnt showing. It just says to watch at 4pm PST.

Saw a few protoforms and this.



I posted the link to the apple trailer a few posts ago for anyone that cant get it on mbay.com

I can't get it on apple either, they want you to buy the player for $30! Screw that, $1.92!!!

If you go to Bay's forums and check the apple website they have links to the full trailer.

Interesting teaser at a full 2 minutes plus, but very little on anything in the actual film.

Looked very cool though.

thats why its a teaser.

So is that Sentinal? I asume he is an Autobot because he has blue eyes.

HO...LY.........SHIIIIIIIIIII T!!! *world explodes*


Even though it showed us virtually nothing...just to see it. This is going to be the greatest movie ever!!! I know I said that with the first two, but after this one, there will be nothing else to stop it from being the greatest because it is the last!

Yay, can't wait for this movie. It should be awesome!!!

St. Even wrote:So is that Sentinal? I asume he is an Autobot because he has blue eyes.

I was thinking it's Alpha Trion, mostly because everyone on those fourms think it is, but I think you're right.

So...how do I watch it? Clicking on the site makes it go to the michaelbay.com homepage, ti starts loading, then the page moves forward randomly to a blank page with infinite loading...

AWESOME!

Reading the interview with Bay just before this; I have great respect for the guy...

Oh yeah, the trailer is AWESOME!

Vector Prime? Is that you?

Also, Apple don't want to load directly to me, here is a site where the trailer is embedded:

Well, Sentinel is gold in G1, and that guy definately is gold.

Yeah the trailer is totally up on the apple sight. Its pretty cool, and the transformers shown looks like he could be Alpha Trion?

Ah, nevermind thanks Robinson, saw it now.
What's up with Autobot Mustache? pretty....lame in my opinion, I thought we were supposed to see ShockWave?
Oh wait, that was from lying ET...

I found the dead Protoform pretty cool though, he looked awesome.
Nice teaser though.

Alpha or Sentinel, I'd say those are the only two that I'd be.

Autobot Megatron wrote:Alpha or Sentinel, I'd say those are the only two that I'd be.

I'm leaning towards ALpha Trion. That was my first impression as well. But Sentinel Prime has been a name mentioned...it definitely has an older look and, if someone with Photoshop could recolor it, could look an awful lot like Alpha Trion. It would also gel with some of the rumors that say one of the new Autobots was Optimus Prime's "father".
