Transformers: The Last Knight

[The Deadman]

http://cdn3-www.comingsoon.net/assets/uploads/2016/05/lastknight.jpg

Paramount Pictures has today announced the official title for the upcoming Transformers 5. Get ready for Michael Bay‘s Transformers: The Last Knight to hit the big screen June 23, 2017!

The Transformers: The Last Knight cast is confirmed to include the return of Transformers: Age of Extinction star Mark Wahlberg as Cade Yeager as well as new roles for Isabela Moner (100 Things to Do Before High School, Growing Up Fisher) as the film’s female lead, Izabella. Jerrod Carmichael (The Carmichael Show, Neighbors) is also set to play an unspecified leading role.

Production on Transformers: The Last Knight is set to begin June 6 in Detroit with production planned to take place at various locations around the world.

“Having one of the highest-profile film franchises created in Michigan is a major economic boost and a testament to the talent of the state’s production community,” said Jenell Leonard, commissioner of the Michigan Film & Digital Media Office when production plans were first revealed. “The production and economic investment is now happening sooner rather than later, and obviously, the project is a certainty rather than merely a possibility.”

Michael Bay returns to the director’s chair for the film, which is set to be written by Iron Man scribes Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Ken Nolan (Black Hawk Down). Lorenzo di Bonaventura, Don Murphy and Tom DeSanto will produce the sequel.

Let the hate begin!

[AT-Man]

I'm gonna see it eventually.

[Vicky82]

The Last Knight????????? Did they run out of ideas of something or are the Autobots going on a Jousting tournament with the Decepticons. :-?

[Foombamaroom]

Dear ****ing god, ANOTHER ONE? I thought this movie was just a joke like Sony's spin-offs for Spider-Man?!

[Allio]

probably
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Last_Autobot

[Autbot_Benz]

I think this movie will have to do with the http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Knights_of_Cybertron

or the Knights' Temenos that was used in Age of Extinction. Optimus did kind of become a Knight in the 4th movie once he released the dinobots.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

And Paramount writes Bay another 10-figure check...

[CyberCubed]

Who keeps seeing all these movies, seriously?

[Cure]

Who keeps seeing all these movies, seriously?

I hope you're joking. All the money these movies make doesn't come out of thin air.

I'm excited for this, but the logo is kind of weird to me. Kind of cartoony, I guess? It's like a TV show logo.

[snake]

When you learn to love the schlock, these movies become 10/10 masterpieces. I'm hyped. The PD TMNT still suck though.

[The Deadman]

Who keeps seeing all these movies, seriously?

Why do you act surprised that there are people out there that like these movies?

[Foombamaroom]

I'm excited for this, but the logo is kind of weird to me. Kind of cartoony, I guess? It's like a TV show logo.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought this, too. It looks really puffy and different. I dunno how to describe it other than more "child friendly", I guess?

Is that a Cross in that sword? I had no idea Optimus Prime was Templar - kind retcons the crusades a bit.

Take a good look at the production company who's financing and making these movies.

[TigerClaw]

I'm looking forward to it, these movies are spectacles and are fun to watch.

I would love to see a GJ Joe/Transformers crossover movie some day.

[ABrown]

I'm a huge Transformers fan, but I'm done seeing these movies in the theater. Transformers just hasn't been able to go from a cartoon to live action the way I've enjoyed TMNT or Batman doing so. Heck, I still haven't even seen the fourth one yet.

Welcome back, Josh Duhamel! The universe feels safer with Lieutenant Colonel Lennox on our side. ‪#‎transformers‬

Huh.

Duhamel was easily the best part of the first 3.

If they're so interested in a human subplot, I have no earthly idea why they didn't have the movies follow the characters at N.E.S.T.. It would've made the movies miles better.

[TigerClaw]

I'm glad to see Josh Duhamel returning, he was one of the bright spots in the first 3 films.

[Foombamaroom]

apparently there's a 14 year old girl in this movie as the lead?

Michael Bay's going to sexualize a 14 year old. My god.

[Hero]

The villain reveal looks just as psychopathic as the previous Prime pic.

[ProactiveMan]

More Megatron, eh? NOBODY saw THAT coming.

Hahaha - exactly.

I'm gobsmacked that they haven't tried to do a Unicron story yet; it seems like it would be right in Michael Bay's wheelhouse. I guess Age of Extinction was sort of a half-assed Unicron story without Unicron... sort of.

[Bry]

I hope you're joking. All the money these movies make doesn't come out of thin air.

I mean, obviously they make money. Especially in the international market. But I actually don't know anyone who pays to watch these things. Anecdotal, sure, but... seriously, nobody. I just find that funny.

wow they got someone really good for movie 5. Wonder if he is playing a human or voicing a transformer.

[ToTheNines]

Probably just a voice.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

Cha-ching goes the man's cash register.

Easy paycheck, don't blame him a bit. Hell, Leonard Nimoy voiced a role in TF3.

Actually Leonard Nimoy was related to Michael Bay, and asked him to voice the character in that movie.

JoBlo.com has the scoop on Transformers: The Last Knight, and...well, it sounds like the other four instalments in the franchise for the most part! This time though, the story will apparently revolve around Optimus Prime finding Cybertron and discovering he was responsible for his home now being a dead planet. To bring it back to life, he's going to need yet another mysterious artefact, and it reportedly has something to do with Merlin. That's right, the Merlin who was King Arthur's magician!

The site adds that,"the power of magic was given to Merlin by a Transformer and somehow the artifact ties into this," and they point out that while they're unsure of what the artefact could be, there is a sword in the movie's logo, so chances are it has something to do with Excalibur. As Maguffins go, this sounds interesting, thought Michael Bay getting his hands on British mythology is worrying.

In terms of characters, Bumblebee is now leading the Autobots (Hound, Crosshairs, and Drift are among those returning) and they're based out in the Badlands of South Dakota. The Dinobots will also return alongside whta the site calls, "mini-dinobots." We're going to meet some new British Transformers too, along with "The Creator" (who is tied into the origins of the robots), Cogman who becomes an Aston Martin, and Squeaks whose other form is a Vespa. Oh, and Megatron will be a jet fighter again. So, sounds pretty good, right? As always, let us know your thoughts in the usual place.

Are you sure that's really from a Michael Bay movie?

U.S Armed Forces and explosions aren't really his thing.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

At the very least, this is said to be his last Transformers film. Although I have no idea where the series will go with the Bumblebee spin-off and the next film without his involvement. Hopefully in a better direction.

[Wildcat]

Is that a Ferrari? Twice they've used supercars they do NOT use for the toys. A Ferrari and a Zonda.

Its so annoying. How can they get permission for the movies but not toys? It doesn't make sense.

I know they're different departments but it would seem the other way around since the cars are depicted getting destroyed in the movies.

[Commenter 42]

He's a Lamborghini Centenario.

also, this design blows

[Wildcat]

Oh I love Lambos. Didn't know they had an updated model coming out til now. Its like a special edition Huracan.

The robot design is ok. Pretty simple. Some of the last toys were inaccurate because the movie designs were so streamlined like this one.

They gave him a vagina face.

I like vaginas, but not as faces.

His face is vulva-like. Looks like that is his combat mode; a concept that annoys me to no end. Don't want you robot face to get mangled in one of your frenetic summersault battles? Don't have a damageable face! It's not like robots need lips to talk anyway.

Bumblebee is back

http://i.imgur.com/5UFgXTw.jpg

[LeotheLateBloomer]

Admittedly I do like how Bumblebee looks but I'm still not convinced!

Call me naive but is/was Transformers more popular than TMNT? I'm asking any Transformer fan since enough people are still watching these films for them to get continuous sequels compared to how low OotS (thankfully) preformed.

[Wildcat]

Personally I wouldn't call myself a "hardcore" fan of either Transformers or TMNT. I love them both but I dont know all the lore. Well I know more about the turtles than TF.

Anyway I would say they're both equally popular. They both have huge fanbases that have lasted this long. Both keep getting cartoons, comics and movies and a bunch of merchandise.

I know alot of people criticize these movies but I like them. They're not my absolute favorites but they're pretty cool imo. My only issue is the action is almost always closeup and in-your-face but I know thats Bay's style.

Other than that I can definitely see the effort they put in. Its just some people can't get past that they're made by Michael Bay.

[Raph's Girl]

Liam Garrigan, who plays King Arthur in Once Upon A Time, is reportatly playing the same role in Transformers: The Last Knight. Hopfully this take on King Arthur is better as the OUAT version is an arse. Yes he was somewhat redeemed after he was killed by Hades but still...meh :ohwell:

Bringing in Nazis is often, but not always, a sign of bankrupt creativity.

Bringing in Nazis in your FIFTH cinematic entry?

Absolutely bankrupt creativity.

[TigerClaw]

Why is this interesting?
Why is it interesting? cause its possible the Decepticons may have been around since WW2.

These movies mess around with history, Like Transformers being on Earth back in prehistoric times.

I bet this movie will borrow from the episode. "A Decepticon Raider in King Arthur's Court"
http://tfwiki.net/wiki/A_Decepticon_Raider_in_King_Arthur's_Court_(episod e)

The previous movies have taken ideas from episodes of the 80s cartoon, so I wouldn't be surprise if they do for this sequel.

The whole King Arthur thing in this movie must be right from that episode.

Here's a new featurette, its short but its about the Baybuster, a vehicle they been using for filming car chases.

Ooooh is that Barricade? He's one my favorites. A lot of people thought the Audi R8 from Revenge of the Fallen was supposed to be Barricade reformatted because of how similar the robot mode looked.

Even if it was supposed to be him that car gets destroyed pretty much right away so they could definitely officially bring him back. It's never explained where he ended up.

I can't believe how many characters this Guy's bringing back for this film. Those army Guy's from those last films?

Why does John Goodman keep coming back? Wasn't he the main villain of the last film? He's just that big of a Transformers fan that he's coming back as a VA now instead?

I'm kind of looking forward to this film due to this actually, though plots going to be confusing as Hell, I thought this was supposed to be a reboot for the Transformers films, why weren't these Guy's around when the world was in trouble last time? Give us an explanation on that please, other wise it's going to make them seem like they don't care, retirement maybe? I'd understand after the crap they saw last time but???

I hope he answers what happened to Sam since these Guy's are coming back. He could have died I guess, it'd make more sense if the last film happened years after the last batch but than the army Guy's would be pretty old and have died before Sam :-?

The Trailer will debut during Halftime on Monday Night Football, so anytime now.

Is Tyrese in this joint or only Duhamel is returning from the original trilogy?

Here's the trailer

[Raph's Girl]

Is that Unicron?! :o

[TigerClaw]

It looks like Optimus is about to kill Bumblebee, But I noticed his eyes have a purple glow, Perhaps he's under some kind of mind control?

[TigerClaw]

I wonder if the movie will have a TMNT reference in it? you know how Out Of The Shadows had a Transformers reference with Bumblebee.

What if we see someone cosplaying as Mikey in one scene.

[DestronMirage22]

Here's the trailer

Ugh, after having watched the entirety of the G1 cartoon and still watching The Headmasters, I'd forgotten how ugly Bayformers are. The trailer didn't do much for me, just reminded me about how much of a masterpiece the JG1 continuity is compared to the Bayverse. :lol:

[Wildcat]

Well some will complain but I still like these movies. They're pretty cool.

I do wish we'd get a live action Beast Wars one day. I know it wouldn't make sense to include them in these movies though.

[Autbot_Benz]

That was a cool trailer These movies are my guilty pleasures. Will see this asap when its out

I haven't gotten to Beast Wars yet but what's the appeal? I'm usually not a fan of 3D animation, pretty much hate it except for rare occasions, but I've heard from a lot of people that Beasties was good. What do you think about it?

I'm usually not a fan of 3D animation, pretty much hate it except for rare occasions, but I've heard from a lot of people that Beasties was good. What do you think about it?Well the cgi is obviously dated but I think it's ok and was good for the time.

Anyway it was just really good overall. Good characters and storylines. There were no humans which I think helped it. It allowed it to stay serious and focus only on thier feud.

Cool designs imo. I mean wild animals and some dinosaurs are a nice alternative to the usual vehicles and aircraft. I really liked when turned TransMetal.

Beast Machines was pretty good too and I recommend it if you like BW. It's a straight continuation. I personally didn't like the designs as much though.

[ZariusTwo]

I like BM for different reasons, but I wouldn't recommend it...it plays fast and loose with too many elements and is kind of a downer, sucking all the fun out of what Beast Wars achieved.

I'll give both a try then. Mostly because Beast Wars Neo looks interesting, and I'd have to watch the other series before it for it to make sense. :D

[ZariusTwo]

You don't really have to watch Beast Machines to enjoy BW Neo, the Japanese continuity is different from the Western continuity (I.E Japan pretend the G1 series finale in the States never happened to justify Headmasters etc)

[DestronMirage22]

I didn't know that about BM. I knew about them skipping season 4/The Rebirth. So Beast Machines is out-of-continuity, or it just takes place in a later time?

[ZariusTwo]

Considering how Beast Machines ends, it definitely takes place much later in the timeline. I think it's still official canon. There was supposed to be a follow-up series made afterwards called Trans-Tech or something, but Hasbro chose to import the Car Robots/Robots in Disguise anime over instead (apparently cheaper)

[TLP]

Is that Unicron?! :o

I think it's the remains of Cybertron.

The song in this trailer is a cover of the Flaming Lips's Do You Realise? The cover is done by Ursine Vulpine.

[TigerClaw]

so has earth society been pretty heavily affected by the presence of autobots and decepticons? it almost looked like a post-apocalyptic future
From what I read, There's a group of humans that wants to wipe out the Autobots and Decepticons, cause of the wars they brought on Earth.

Its why you see Posters of an image of Optimus Prime with the word Enemy on it.

I really don't understand how there can actually be normal people excited to see these movies. Secondly, Anthony Hopkins... why? You didn't need to do this, on any level.

[CylonsKlingonsDaleksOhMy]

I really don't understand how there can actually be normal people excited to see these movies.

I'm pretty sure there aren't.

Not normal people.

It seems some people never bother to heed Kirk Lazarus's advice from Tropic Thunder.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

It's times like these that make me thankful that Out of the Shadows bombed.

[blindturtle02]

I really don't understand how there can actually be normal people excited to see these movies. Secondly, Anthony Hopkins... why? You didn't need to do this, on any level.

I haven't seen any of these past Revenge of The Fallen. That was all I could stands and I can't stands no more! If they ever introduce Unicron, I MIGHT watch whichever movie he shows up in. Wait a minute. Bay will probably make him into some kind of an enormous exploding energy cloud, so forget I said anything. I won't let him tempt me with the Chaos Bringer. I just won't.

[Andrew NDB]

When I heard it last week on the radio in an ad I dismissed it, but now I'm seeing it in TV spots. They're adding a "THE FINAL CHAPTER" to the current marketing campaign for Last Knight, like they did with the Pirates 5 stuff. Is anybody else seeing that? There's no way they make this the last "film."

[TigerClaw]

Here's a new featurette about the movie using IMAX cameras, apparently 98% of The Last Knight was shot in IMAX 3D.

[Cure]

I wonder when the critics embargo lifts, it must be either tonight or tomorrow as it's out on Wednesday.

Or maybe it was never screened for them at all. Come on, we all know what they're gonna say about it, so what's the point?

What's the point for any movie, really, but that's another discussion.

[DestronMirage22]

These movies are pretty insulting to the brand, have poor plot, and lots of gratuitous violence.
That being said, there's nothing wrong with turning off your brain once in a while and seeing these things. My whole family went to see the 1st one in theaters and since then it's sort of been a tradition that we go see the new one whenever they come out. They probably enjoy these things more than I do, but I really enjoy the experience of being with them. So we're thinking of going this Thursday. Time to see what new lows they'll reach. :lol::roll:

Not to Hasbro however, they see these movies to sell more Transformer toys, so I don't think they care about the quality of these movies, as long as they keep churning up Transformers movies, Hasbro will be selling the toys for it.

I'm gonna see the movie on Saturday and in 3D of course, the only way to see these type of movies.

Insane. I've never seen Age of Extinction until just now on FX... it's bad. Like, b-movie bad. They clearly gutted the CGI budget.

[DestronMirage22]

Just got back from watching this "film".
My god, where do I even begin?
This was easily the WORST Transformers film yet. They somehow managed to top all the other ones in their level of horribleness.

During the last hour or so I just wanted it to end, but it WOULDN'T.

Also I went in my G1 t-shirt just to represent the actual Transformers :P

This movie also took A LOT from Transformers the Movie.



Things I hated/made no sense/were horrible about this movie:
*Megatron suddenly being Megatron again. In the last film he was left as Galvatron and there's no explanation given AT ALL as to why he's suddenly back to normal. I suppose you could say he refused to be in the form that humans made for him or adopt their name, but that'd be putting more thought into it than THEY did. Really lazy writing.

*Humans as usual take center stage in a movie that's SUPPOSED to be about the freaking TRANSFORMERS. At times it felt like you were watching a completely unrelated movie.

*Dinobots felt like add-ons. They only show Grimlock and the triceratops one (for like two seconds) and they never switch from their alt-modes. Grimlock acts like some kind of dog, and it isn't funny. Plus, the mini-Dinobots were just there. They served no purpose and as usual no explanation was given for their sudden appearance. Then they all disappear for the whole ending. :/

*Nemesis Prime. Pffffft, AS IF! Stupid and unnecessary.

*This film took itself WAAAY to seriously. It tried really hard to explain things and tie things together, even things from previous films. All the while forgetting to explain actual important stuff. *sigh*

*LOADS of exposition being dumped on you. It's all incredibly boring and you just want it to end.

*Optimus Prime wasn't even in half the movie. He takes forever to show up to Earth, just to pull some "betrayl" garbage, he gets back to normal, and then he just saves the day as usual (all the while only switching to his alt-mode only ONCE).

*Veeeery convenient that those two humans happen to be the ones they need to save the world.

*There's gonna be another one. BECAUSE OF COURSE THERE WILL BE!!!

*Megatron survives. There wouldn't be another sequel without him as they villain would there?

*Unnecessary introduction to Decepticons that die shortly after.

*Romance felt completely forced.

*Childish humor and unnecessary swearing from EVERYBODY.

*Unicron is suddenly Earth??? What???? How does that...what???

*How the FRIG was Bumblebee in WWII (or whatever)? Wasn't it established in the first film that was his first time on Earth?

*Bumblebee's voice comes back at the right moment because the plot called for it.

*MANY underused characters. Mainly the new Autobots from the last film and Hot Rod (who was ok).

*Random Transformers who do NOTHING and show up from nowhere. That construction vehicle in the junkyard that suddenly appears, transforms and then vanishes. That old tank Transformer who was ony there to make a joke about robot-dementia (WTF???). Also that old Transformer who just falls over.

*Annoying kid characters.

*Quientessa was lame.


Things I liked/thought were neat or ok:
*Sam Witwicky's small cameo. His fate is sort of revealed (as that one lady is said to be the last one, blah, blah, blah), and it's pretty obvious he died. Poor Shia LaBeouf keeps getting screwed eh?

*Starscreams head making an appearance. There was an interesting little moment where Megatron reminisces about his "treacherous old friend" that I actually liked. These films really needed Starscream. He was one of the characters I felt they did a bit of justice to, and he always added some much needed tension between the Decepticon ranks. Ah well.

*Megatron looks vaguely like his G1 self. Complete with bucket-head and fusion cannon. :)

*Wheelie is back! With no explanation! But he's back! (Now what happened to Brains, I wonder).

*Quintessons getting some modern day representation (sort of). It was neat, I guess.

*Shockwave getting namedropped. You can never have enough Shockwave. Ever.

[TigerClaw]

Say what you will about these movies, but they delivered on the spectacle, I need reasons to go the movies after all, and the Transformers movies delivers on the action and spectacle of it all.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

But what are your overall thoughts?

[TigerClaw]

But what are your overall thoughts?
This movie had way more action then Age of Extinction, so I thought it was better then Age of Extinction based on the amount of stuff this movie had, It had a ton of military action, there is no after credit scene, but there was a mid credit scene.
Quintessa shows up in human form

[TigerClaw]

Even though this movie is supposedly Michael Bay's last in directing, don't be surprise if he's still executive producer in the other movies, so no matter who directs TF6 and the Bumblebee movie, Michael Bay will surely be hands on in those too.

[Candy Kappa]

Except you can't tell what the hell is going on in the action and spectacle.

The fast-moving gray metal clutter moves to one side, and another fast-moving gray metal clutter with a hint of red in it moves to another side. It's easy.

[TigerClaw]

The whole thing aboutUnicron being Earth was taken from the Transformers Prime series.

[LeotheLateBloomer]

Wow! This film was just........confused!

Really awful!

[Panda_Kahn_fan]

If, and I say IF, the bumblebee movie set in the early 80's goes ahead, does anybody think it'll be reworked as a reboot, with more g1 designs, with bumblebee waking up from the ark buried under mount saint Hilary, and the movie ends with the other tf's waking up in 1984, to start the war in it's proper time and place, and moving ahead with the franchise as a series of period pieces set in the 80's and 90's closer to the original cartoon?

Yes, I know it's fanboy-ish, but I could see them, desperate to get audiences back, tossing Bay and Bonaventura overboard, and pandering to nostalgia to get the $$$ back.

I think Bumblebee will look the same, He will just transform to a VW Bug.

As for the Bumblebee movie, the director of Kubo and The Two Strings will be the director for it, but I bet Michael Bay will still be the producer for it, and you know that he's pretty hands on with movies he produces, so not much the Director can do, Michael Bay will just watch the dailies that's been shot and decides if he likes the tone of the movie, if not, he'll force them to do some reshoots.

I doubt it, It really depends on whose in charge of the Transformers movies, I know Spielberg was the producer of them, and was the one who choose Michael Bay to direct, So its his call.

[Aaronardo]

The fast-moving gray metal clutter moves to one side, and another fast-moving gray metal clutter with a hint of red in it moves to another side. It's easy.

Bay is sick of transformers, and has only been pulled back in these past two times by the studios and producers. I don't think they'll be begging him to come back again this time.

We shall see... Batman v. Superman caused a LOT of changes in how the DC movies in pre-production behind the scenes. This drop off is CATASTROPHIC compared to that. Even china is expected to turn in less. I have a feeling if the4 plug isn't pulled on transformers altogether, there WILL be a MAJOR shakeup. Everything we knew about the franchise is out the window/up in the air with this little disaster unfolding right now.

Those plans were laid before this disaster took shape, and I won't believe any article spin until the dust has settled from this movie greatly under-performing. If articles a month from now still read 'we're going ahead as planned', I'll buy it. Studios and investors don't like losing money, and the current direction just lost a lot of money.

Here's Andre's Spoiler Review

72BRt-SbGwg

[Panda_Kahn_fan]

So, apparently transformers sites are reporting TFU: Bumblebee is going to start filming next week.

....

I don't know what to think. I'm hoping- praying- that there is still time for a course correct. The whole world- including China!- has rejected the stupid that these movies have been over the past decade. I'm really, really hoping- even if they have to keep the same designs. I'm hoping there was a little less cobbled together junk-bot design for bumblebee since his solo movie is set in the 1980's, and they have enough time to sever the ties to Bay's universe before release, because if this has Bay and Bonaventura's fingerprints on it, this movie is D.O.A.

Continue praying because, even if its being directed by somebody else, Michael Bay will still have his hands on it.

[Panda_Kahn_fan]

If that is the case, then that will be the last transformers film for a long time, period. People will NOT pay to go see Bay transformers again, the well has been too poisoned.

[Shark_Blade]

After the absolutely dreadful TF4 film, I think I'm completely drained and lost interest for this new one. I read that it's even more awful than ever before.

[TigerClaw]

Akiva Goldsman is no longer involved with Transformers, and the Writer's Room has been abandoned, so I guess its back to the drawing board.

Bumping this because apparently a group of fans are actually trying to create sequels to the Bayformer movies that try to tie up the loose ends left by The Last Knight.
