Ladles and gentlebolts, we have a title for the fifth instalment in the live action Transformers series from Paramount and Hasbro, under Michael Bay's direction: according to a number of sources, including the newly created Instagram account, the new film will be

Transformers: The Last Knight

Which fits in nicely from where we left with Age of Extinction. Check out the embedded Instagram announcement below, too!

Calling all #Autobots: Optimus Prime is ready for battle. Are you? #transformers

I thought it said Dark Knight and was very confused. I do like the subtitle though. Sounds interesting and fun.

Is it just me or is that a new font?

Pretty sure it is new font

Hey look, they changed the font. So far that's the biggest thing that interests me.

I still haven't seen Age of Extinction...

Greebles EVERYWHERE!

Seems like they're following thru on the utterly random knight theme, which is something. Given how such plot points as Prime and Megs being "brothers" or the Hatchlings went, I fully expected to never hear of the Knights again.

Purple eyes, hmm....

Well that's...kinda stupid, but not entirely? I dunno. It's hard for me to get excited about the films. That'll probably change when it gets closer though.

Prime goes off exploring, we don't see what happens to him, and he comes back to earth evil with purple eyes and killing everyone. Someone drops a line calling him nemesis prime.

Grimlock will be killed on-screen in the first 15 minutes. Hound and Crosshairs will be killed off-screen. Drift and the other Dinobots will never even be mentioned. That's what I'm predicting.

10/10 best TLDR I've seen in a while.

Not crazy about the subtitle nor the new font. A trailer would help me get excited for this.

Ooh cool title. I imagine we'll be getting plenty of time with Prime and his adventures in space. Hopefully cutting down a little on the human screen time.

Comment by Genericon May 16, 2016

The fact that they're calling it "The Last Knight" makes me wonder if they're gonna kill off the Dinobots in the first hour of this thing (cause you know it's gonna be over 2 hours long).

These guys wanna write about Transformers?

Or do they wanna write about the Knights of the Roundtable?

EYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!! :APPLAUSE:

I told you AOE would be the harbinger of the next level of Transformers movies! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! :APPLAUSE:

WHOO, shit, boy, I can't wait! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!! The eluding of the Knights was the best element of AOE's story, and they're expanding on it, just like I said they would! I was worried they'd forget about it like they forgot about the Primes in DOTM, but they didn't! AHAHAHAHAHA! I'M HYPED!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! :APPLAUSE:

THE greatest movie of all time! Of ALL TIME!!!

Comment by RevTibe May 16, 2016

Huh, the sub suggests a degree of continuity, that'd be a step up. Giving Prime a vague arc in Age of Extinction was probably the first time a live-action TF movie has tried to have a Transformer as a relatable character who can grow and change, so it'd be nice if we continue that.

While I don't have much attachment to the live actions, I've made peace with them. (Nice injection of cash into the franchise, too.) Low imagination action blockbuster, eh. I'm always open to being proven wrong, but I'll be waiting until I can catch it on Netflix or DVD or something, not enough engagement to watch in a theater.

Why not both?

Knights in TF G1.

Hotrodimus (Cavalier count?)

Victory Leo (He's Knighty knight)

That's all I recall. Could one of them be present?

I like it and I am looking forward to it and a whole new line of movie toys (they are my main reason for collecting TFs).
