I fear all those shots of classic Transformers designs could be flashbacks from Bumblebee telling his story to the girl (can't remember her name) and won't be an active part of the story 

This was exactly my thoughts as well, along with the idea that the flashback might only be a couple of minutes out of the entire film. If it were truly a reboot (as others have commented) then it’d be a lot more encouraging. But if they’re planning this as a prequel, and using these teasers to lure in the G1 die hards (like me) then I think many of us will be disappointed. 

Still, though, it’s the first TF movie since 2007 that I’m actually interested in seeing.

New tv spot, and MORE of Cybertron^^

 

[David Hingtgen]

Anyone else have a local theater doing the early screenings on the 8th?  I got my ticket---it's the ultimate way to avoid spoilers---see it before everyone else.

Wow, Prime finally looks like Prime.  I hope this movie actually has a decent story as all the visuals so far are pretty darn good.

Transformers that ACTUALLY look like Transformers. Only took them 12 years but finally got there. Halle-freakin-julah.

I might see this film, the G1 modes are great.

Looks a lot more like Prime.

... 

But looks even more like Striker Manus for some reason. I think it is the panels sticking out behind the smokestacks sending my brain that direction.

[Scyla]

To me the smokestacks look like the wind vane gun from Classics Prime (and Striker Manus).

The fins behind them make me think of Manus' ax storage.

OMG Hasbro is stealing from 3P. :P

[kajnrig]

Who/what is Striker Manus? Googling just showed a lot of store pages and product pics. I'm gonna guess it's a knockoff Optimus Prime?

I think it's more of a 3P than KO.

Same diff. 

 

But yes, Striker Manus is a legally-distinct converting robot who just happens to bear an ENTIRELY COINCIDENTAL resemblance to a certain Autobot(tm) leader.

[David Hingtgen]

Yup, and Thunder Manus is also a legally distinct entity, who also coincidentally bears a resemblance to the Powermaster version of a certain Autobot™ leader. 

Anyways--anyone else snag tickets to a Dec 8 early showing?

Love that trailer. It took ten years but it looks like they finally fixed Transformers.

[David Hingtgen]

Seeing it tonight!  Anyone else? 

[Dobber]

Nope but I just saw a trailer that may have spoiled what happens to “Not Starscream” 

Also another one that clearly showed the roof coming together and essentially melting together to make it seemless. Oh well...

[David Hingtgen]

Oh, you don't even need to watch the trailer---I haven't, but was still spoiled.  People have been spoiling it for months (super-early test screenings), and youtube is putting it right in the title of all their "suggested" vids---you can't avoid it.  I haven't watched any new trailers etc for weeks.  But people still spoil left and right...

Honestly, I get spoiled by youtube more than anywhere else nowadays---it WILL suggest to you, every "trailer reaction/analysis" vid that comes out, and people WILL put spoilers in the titles of those videos.    Just going to youtube.com, will spoil you.  Don't even type/search anything.  Just have spoiler-vids pop up.  (I never even log in, so it usually only has a vague sense of what I watch, and it still plucks up a lot of "movies I'm interested in, that I *don't* want to see any more analysis/trailers/spoilers for)  

"If you don't want to be spoiled, don't click!" doesn't work when people spoiler-title their videos and threads...

Sorry for the rant, but it always irks me to be spoiled, when I do my darndest to not check anything beyond "the 2 main official trailers each movie usually gets".

I saw that trailer the other night & thought "Gee, thanks for the spoiler!"

Yeah, I just had Nickelodeon on for my kids and the commercial came on. I couldn’t believe they showed what happened to “Not-Starscream” Like 505th said, I was like “THANKS”

Seeing this really makes you realize how much they’ve bastardized OP over the Bay Movies.  That TF5 design is even worse than the previous movies design. And that’s saying something. The BB movie design is such an improvement.

[Sandman]

Is it just me or are they not promoting this movie that much. I haven’t heard anything out this movie in the last few weeks. Saw this thread today and I was reminded about the movie. I had forgotten and I was interested in seeing this. I was surprised that some ppl were already seeing it. 

[Black Valkyrie]

 

Its getting reviews.

[Convectuoso]

From that review seems like it may be worth giving it a chance

IGN gave it a 7.0, hmmm. I'm sure it would be good but still not the TRANSFORMERS film we want?
