I guess the global fansites had dismissed this at the time as being fake, which is why I only heard about it last week from someone at work... who was asking me what I thought about the trailer to the next Transformers Movie.

I had no idea what he was talking about, and at least knew that there wouldn't be a trailer out yet if they hadn't even started any pre-production work, let alone any filming.

So checking out google today for "Rise of Galvatron" I found quite a few website and youtube results (http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=as2LesVOgHA).
It seems that someone created a very authentic looking trailer last October/November (using footage from other movies), and some news & fan sites appear to have picked up on it as if it were legit (someone even started a facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Transformers-4-Rise-of-Galvatron/189607937774578)).
And obviously quite a few people out there are now under the assumption that, the fourth movie is called Rise of Galvatron, and that there is a trailer out there (with a transforming passenger plane, which is actually from a Japanese movie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kThJGtcVqU)).

The fourth movie may well have Galvatron in it, but until something official is revealed, just be aware that this is a fake trailer (http://www.ibtimes.com/transformers-4-rise-galvatron-fake-trailer-emerges-868016), and if anyone you know mentions it, you can be confident in telling them that it has nothing to do with the 4th movie.

Someone's April Fools? I do love that transformation slowmo though.

After watching it, I'm astounded that anyone could believe that it was legit.

That has been around for months and months. Wish it was official.

That was fun, 'There is only so much one man can do' after the scene with Prime made me laugh and the Passenger jet partial transform did have some menace.

Kinda annoying people are reuploading the trailer with 'Official' in the title, I've been conned like that before in the past...

That snaps me, that. It's either BS trailers or Rick Astley.

I vaguely remember downloading and watching (and subsequently deleting) that Japanese movie 10 years ago because I thought there were going to be more Transformers/transforming robots in it.

I find it hard to believe people thought that was an official trailer.

The Batman bits give it away somehow...
