It's a shame that they're unlikely to ever be done justice in plastic form in 2017 though :(
I swear if third party Bayformers took off I'd have absolutely no money left.
It's good that they've gone back to a style similar to the 2007 movie, and not the silly running directly at you with one foot and one fist in front style.Quote:

Mark Ryan (voiced Lockdown in TF4), has said that he will be back for the next one... not necessarily as Lockdown though, but you never know with the way no one seems to stay dead.
And for some reason, Hasbro have filed a trademark for Transformers in the live action movie category... which if necessary, is odd that they hadn't done it yet, some 10+ years since the first one was first announced.
One thing I like about this Megatron is how his face guard turns into a pair of horns and combined with that armor and weapon he wields, it gives him a fantasy game darklord-look.Quote:

I kind of like the, 'this is really what happened' aspect of history in movies like this, it ads some Gravitas, sort of...
It does get a little mouldy having it happen in every single film though and I can see how people would get sick of it.
*sigh* really wish they went in a different direction :confused:Quote:

Hot Rod's car mode (a Lamborghini Centenario LP770-4) has been seen on set during filming in England.
A new red sports car has also been seen on set, and is said to be an Autobot.
A silver Aston Martin has been seen on set, and is said to be an Autobot called Cogman. (I hope that is just its on-set codename)
And here can be seen, a collection of the other expensive cars that are likely to make up the Autobot team this time.
Stanley Tucci is confirmed to be returning for TF5, while the big name in the last week to be joining the Transformer franchise is Sir Anthony Hopkins (as a human, not a character voice).Quote:
- Barricade – 2016 Ford Mustang police car
- Bumblebee – Custom-built yellow and black 2016 Chevrolet Camaro
- Autobot Cogman – Aston Martin DB11
- Unknown Cybertronian – McLaren 570S
- Hot Rod – Lamborghini Centenario LP770-4
- Laura Haddock’s (Character’s) Citroen DS
- Hound – Mercedes Unimog military tactical vehicle
On the music side of things, one of the people who worked on the Game of Thrones score, is joining Steve Jablonsky to do the music for TF5.
Adding to the Merlin news (who is said to be played by Santiago Cabrera), someone called Liam Garrigan could end up playing King Arthur, a role in which he has played before in another TV show.
While a UK actress called Elizabeth Croft, has revealed that she has scored a role on the Transformers movie as well.
Seems to be an interesting movie.

I'd put this down to a rumour at the moment but I've heard that Transformers 5 will be shooting some scenes down in Cronulla. I'm trying get some official confirmation on this and will post when I do.
Mini-Dinobots? The Dinobots that wandered off at the end of TF4 musta had babies... or Michael Bay is trying to copy and compete with Jurassic Park.
Yes, there looks to be a part of the movie set in the second world war... so maybe one of the magical relics from Merlin becomes one of the various mystical items that Hitler tried tracking down, like the Spear of Destiny.Quote:

King Arthur & Merlin, Nazis and mini-alien-robotic-dinosaurs... Friggin gold!
I smell a buttload of Oscars on the way! :D
Is there still time to make a special request for Nazi-zombies as well?
Feels like Michael Bay is trying to outdo this gag trailer from Rick and Morty.
Fingers crossed Dracula and Billy the Kid make an appearance as well
So, is this a time travel movie or are there multiple history flashbacks in this one?
I'd probably say the latter, as he's done it with the previous four, and a time-travel plot would be too complicated for Bay to follow, or film in his basic action style.Quote:

I'm guessing Optimus isn't going to be in the movie much as there is no way a truck like him could drive down a London street (much like he'd never be able to drive down a Hong Kong street so rode a dinosaur instead!).
The only good thing I've seen come out of it so far (aside from bringing back Lennox and Epps and Barricades alt-mode) is they got Steve Jablonsky back onboard. I'm hoping he'll go back to the previous movies more for his inspiration... He has done a good job with the previous soundtracks.
Ok so it turns out that my father doesn't know the difference between Transformers and another movie involving giant robots. Suffice to say Transformers 5 will NOT be shooting down in Cronulla :(Quote:

And here are some close up photos of some of the Transformers cars, plus details from a fan who was watching the filming one day in London last week.
No wonder these Transformers movies cost so much to film, with all the jetsetting around the world Bay does for it. The latest location is Norway.
And the official facebook page has posted up a Transformers car chase being filmed on the streets of London.
There is a new facebook video from Michael Bay it seems (it is embedded in the story below, you don't need facebook to watch it). Agent Symmons is back and Hound with John goodman as well (if that wasn't confirmed already). A preview should be released later this year. They are also filming in Africa so some more jet-setting. From IGN:

I'm actually a bit excited for this.
Don't hurt me again Bay.
It sounds like filming has finally wrapped up, after a very long schedule, and the editing and promotional phase begins.
Filming of a medieval fighting scene, as described by one of the extras.
Some special effects filming with Mark Wahlberg.
A wrap party video was posted up by paramount.
And some minor, post-filming articles.
Isabela has shared some details about some of her parts in the movie, while the firsts of the trailers looks be out online... or at least, a featurette that looks like it might be used as a trailer.
If that isn't the first trailer to be seen in theatres, there should be one within the next month according to a report that it has just been given a classification (rating) in America.
On a related note, the TF6 "Bumblebee" movie has apparently had its script finalised, and Paramount are now shopping around for a Director... since Michael Bay is too busy with TF5, and TF6 is coming out a year later.
perhaps this is the start of sourcing a new TF director in general.
I'll be very interested to see how the look of the bumblebee movie differs with a different director at the helm.
According to Michael Bays twitter...
Trailer coming December 16 (17 here) with starwars rouge one.

Another reason to go see Rogue 1!
Some reshoots have taken place on the aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson, off San Diego, and Paramount have again courted the Chinese market by signing up a new distribution partner, to replace the one they used for TF4.
Aparantly Transformers The Last Knight production has wraped up filming
http://news.tfw2005.com/2016/12/04/t...-monday-329544
There's multiple threads dealing with the movie and trailer. Can we combiner war them to keep things tidy?
