The tagline "rethink your heroes", Optimus floating in space and then being Opticus Purple, the Big Dumb Object (if it's not what remained of Cybertron) and Megs all made me guess that:
1) "Welcome, Optimus. I am Unicron. I have summoned you here for a purpose."
2) Dark Energon + Optimus = Nemesis Prime.
3) Megs going like "if Earth is destroyed, I have nothing to rule" like in TFP and pulls an Enemy Mine with the autobots and humans against Optimus to give us pseudo Shattered Glass.

4) Lennox' return means we also get endless masturbatory footage of US Armed Forces stuff.
Maybe we can get an explanation for well the hell he was during Age of Extinction.

Agreed. Also let's hope we don't see Simmons' ass again. But as long as Shia Labeouf and his stupid parents are not back, I accept.
That all you got?
Yeah, Lennox was really the only Transformers character I actually liked. Mainly because he was the most down-to-Earth of the bunch.
That is the face of a man who just ate a kitten. Raw.
Yes, together with Epps, who's about the only human source of genuinely fun humor in the movies. "Why do Decepticons always get the good shit?"
Also I kinda want Charlotte Mearing back.
That all you got?
LEFT CHEEK! LEFT CHEEK! LEFT CHEEK!"

He even had some of the more poignant lines. "Gotta wonder, if God made us in his image, who made him?" "Cause that asshole killed MY friends too."

"Told them to hit orange smoke." "You mean that orange smoke?" "Wasn't my best toss, okay?"
Do we know who the Cybertronian was with the yellow/orange coloring and the close-up in the trailer? It was awfully prominent but we don't have any promotional images. He had the most human-like features of any other in the series.
That guy
As long as lots of humans die, I'll be happy.
Your momma's so dumb she thinks oral sex means talking dirty.
Anyone looking forward to the Big Game?
A longer version will be seen during the Super Bowl's 2nd quarter, commercial 2.
That all you got?
So it does look like Optimus is being controlled somehow...
And we're still going through that "Transformers are the enemy and are being hunted" thing.

Also Baby Dinobots
. I look forward to them getting as little screen time and as little presence in the movie as the adult ones did last film.
It's kinda a few weeks old, but there's been some speculation regarding who the female voice in the Super Bowl spot belongs to. (Spoilers, of course)
(Forces a grin.)
....
(Grin slowly fades from face.)
Um, does anybody even care anymore? I'm not sure if I should bother giving a scrap anymore....
So who is voicing Unicron?
We don't know. Heck, we don't even know if the big planet eating thing is Unicron. It might be, but what if there's a curveball in the midst.
By the way, I was kind of asking a serious question earlier: Does anyone here care about this movie anyway?
I mean, I want to look forward to it, but I can't stop feeling down about it. I feel like when this come out, everyone's just gonna hate it...just because.
It really doesn't help that I can't stop thinking about how, in The Nostalgia Critic or rather Doug Walker's words, Michael Bay had our penises with Age of Extinction and Doug recently gave all the TFs sequels a spot on his top 11 worst sequels list (including The Last Knight).
It's getting to a point that I'm starting to wonder: if everyone else gave up on this series ages ago, what if it happens to me with this one? What if this movie will be the straw that breaks the camel's back for me?
Hell, recently I've been wondering if they're just better off deciding to Torch the Franchise and Run and just start from scratch to rethink, well, everything. Yeah I guess it'd be a shame if that "Writing Team" they had last year or so ended up not being able to do anything but...would it have fixed anything at this point? Or has the Point of No Return been reached long ago?
So I ask again: does anyone else care about this movie at all?
Because I don't even know anymore...

LEGENDARY GALE
(For the record, I'm assuming the planet is actually the remains of Cybertron.)
but HOW?
...
So no one's going to answer my question about whether or not anybody even cares about this movie?
You can just say "no, we don't care anymore" or "sure, we care to some degree."
I just want to hear some honest answers...
LEGENDARY GALE
You only waited an hour and a half.
And I don't watch Transformers movies, so I don't really have an opinion on the subject.
but HOW?
The franchise exists to sell toys. There's literally no reason for it to exist.
(V)(;,,;)(V)
Well...yeah, no argument there, but regardless, it wouldn't hurt anyone to put a little (or a lot) more care into it.
I mean look at GaoGaiGar. That was made to sell a toyline too, but isn't that hailed as one of the most Crazy Awesome Super Robot shows out there?
That all you got?
I stopped caring about these movies a long time ago.

It's actually kinda unclear if Demolisher was "executed" or if it was a Mercy Kill. Demolisher by the end of the fight on the ground, completely destroyed, and when he talks his voice is distorted and he spits Energon and sparks. I think the intention is that Demolisher was already mortally wounded by this point, and his "The Fallen will rise again!" was kind of a Famous Last Words way to go out, so Optimus didn't as much execute him as give him a merciful end.
