Awesome. With Super Cena on our sides mankind will wreck that shit - who I am kidding. Another train wreck.

Now one potential saving grace is the timeline. If they can Un-Bayify this shitfest and make it Gen 1 like with an actual VW Beetle, Soundwave as a boombox , etc it might have a chance.

I'm a fan of Hailee Steinfeld, so maybe this has a chance. I want to believe!

Although I'm gonna take what is probably an unpopular stance and say that I have never fucking liked Bumblebee, not one bit. I'd rather see a movie about almost any of the other "significant" characters.

What we really need is a Starscream movie. He's my boy!

Agree and agree, but only a G1 version.

I've enjoyed all the transformers movies so far. Looking forward to this. John Cena is the human equivalent of a Michael Bay explosion. Gonna be awesome.

What's sad, is the Go-Bots did a much better beetle type toy. was one of my first of that type of toy as a kid when I was like 3. Had higher quality bits and all.

Was going to link an image but none worked =/

First official image is out, rockin' it old school.

This will be the first Transformers movie I have actually looked forward to in a very long time. I like Hailee Steinfeld as an actress and Travis Knight directed Kubo and the Two Strings which was fantastic.

Yea this is the first Transformers movie I could maybe potentially feel hopeful about not being absolute garbage, maybe. It is off to a passable start!

I also don't understand the focus for Bumblebee - I think it's supposed to be a "kids favorite character" thing but I was a kid when the G1 stuff was on and no one ever talked about Bumblebee. I don't think I or anyone I knew had one of his figures. Like, in subsequent shows have they shoved Bumblebee = popular down every kids throat on purpose? We all liked Grimlock and the Dinobots and Devastator and Optimus and fucking Unicron and Starscream and Soundwave and Shockwave (kinda), y'know cool characters.

Idk, my 3 year old talks about bumblebee. I got him some cheap quickchange Camarro version until he can handle the shitload of Combiner Wars ones I got him as soon as I knew I was having a boy.

I think he just likes the name honestly, cause he likes the cooler jets and police cars better but doesn’t remember the names. He has been asking me lately what the giant Devastator on his bedroom shelf turns into :)

If this is kid friendly I may take him to this. I didn’t really watch any of the movies past the first two, which I didn’t really like.

Hah, thanks.

Here’s pics of most of the transformers I have waiting for him to come of age, including the quickchange bumblebee. He does play with some of the smaller ones but can’t transform them fully yet. Comes close on a few. There’s a few more unopened or in random places not pictured. Devastator is pretty badass, it’s a couple feet tall when combined.

I just don't know why this movie reminds me of the Ewoks movie.
