First Trailer.
I love it. I'm a Generation 1 fan from the '80s, and I was grinning throughout the entire trailer. Looks like fun and a nice jumping-on point for people new to Transformers.
Hemsworth actually sounds good as Orion pax/Soon to Optimus prime.
It's clearly a movie aimed at a much younger audience, and, hey, that's fine with me; let's not pretend the original G1 cartoon or its successors like Beast Wars existed for any reason other than To Sell Toys. I doubt I'll ever go out of my way to actually see this, but if it pops up on streaming and I'm very pleasantly high or something, I might turn it on and see what's what.
I'm almost positive it came from the Bumblebee movie from a few years ago.

This looks fun. Something my 7 year old son would love. Shouldn't that be the target audience? I loved Transformers when I was 7, why can't he? I've seen a lot of adults crying online today about how this is a kids movie. I think they've forgotten how old they were when they fell in love with Transformers.
I'll be 40 in July, and while I had a few of the toys when I was a kid, I was never an ultra-fanatic or anything like that. With the Bay films, there have been ones I really enjoy (like '07, Dark of the Moon and some of the absolute batshit insanity in The Last Knight), there has been stuff that's aggressively mediocre (it took three nights for my ex-wife and me to make it through Age of Extinction on Netflix), and then there's been stuff that's absolute dogshit (I am looking squarely at you, Revenge of the Fallen).
A friend of mine who's about ten years older than I am went on an insane screed on Facebook earlier today, crying about how having Chris Hemsworth voice Orion Pax / young Optimus Prime was an utter disgrace and insult to Peter Cullen. My brother in Christ, Peter Cullen will be fucking eighty-three years old in July.
'Transformers - The Movie' still looks great nearly 40 years later. This looks like a direct-to-video movie you'd find in a supermarket bargain bin back in the early 2000s.
I believe that ILM is the lead effects studio on this, yes, but I think another company is handling the 3D conversion.
Transformers: Teenbots in Disguise!
But they're all naked, all the time.
Eight theatrical freaking Transformers movies in the past not even 20 years, and not a single Captain Planet flick.
Corporations hate Planet Earth.
New child-oriented Transformers One flick underperforms. Maybe a gray, drab-looking movie about gray, drab-looking robots isn't a huge draw for kids these days.
Time for the Captain at last?!

Actually from the clips and trailers it looks pretty colorful.
Transformers has been a fairly active and popular franchise for while now, and I don't think anyone has done anything with Capt. Planet since the cartoon ended. So I can see why we're getting more Transformers and not more Capt. Planet.

I saw the Movie on Saturday. It is easily the best Transformers film since the 1986 Transformers the Movie. To bad no one is going to see it in theaters.
