Comic Book Movie has posted some scans from the new edition of Empire Magazine, which has a Transformers Age of Extinction feature. The stills in the feature include Nicola Peltz being menaced by a big green prop claw that will be a stand in for a robot in the final film, the Autobot cars Drift and Crosshairs flanking Optimus Prime driving towards a scrapped automobile, Jack Reynor and Mark Wahlberg having what looks like a tense conversation with the old-style Bumblebee between them, and some more general shots of the cast and crew on set, including Michael Bay on location in China.

only slightly to be honest. All the major fights that could have been any good were way to short and they never really felt to intense. Bee fighting Soundwave was a let down, OP vs Megs and Shockwave were let downs. OP vs Sentinel was really the only worthwhile fight in the movie. The Dread vs Swipe and Hide was an awesome scene but again it was over before anything really happened. Even Dino and Bee taking down Hatchet was lacking (in my opinion). I find it a slap in the face to Starscream fans that in 3 movies, he never killed a single Autobot lol. Two of the coolest designed Autobots Jolt and Dino could have done soooooooo much more but will just be known as the guys that looked cool, had potential but were never seen again lol. And in DOTM if the whole first half of the movie wasnt about Sam finding a job, some of these fight scenes probably could have been longer and much more in depth.
Id like to actually see the TFs fight with the determination you see the human cast fight with. I want to see the medical TFs (like Ratchet) actually rush to a fellow TF and aid him in combat because he went down with a wound. I want to see more than Bee and OP get the big battle scenes. I want to see a GRAND battle with like 12 to 15 Autobots taking on twice as many Cons and see the fighting from a grand perspective at times, as well as from individual perspective and a lot less attention payed to showing us all the explosions of things exploding that would never do so in real life lol.
If Autobots get captured, let us see how it happened, not just jump to the next scene and oh look, they are all captured. If characters are not in the movie, at least give me some reason as to why. Have another character make mention to their whereabouts or how they died.
ok, I can go on but ill quit for now. As much as i liked the last 3 movies, they all just had their times of WTF to that moments.

I kind of hope that ripped in two red car is Dino.
What? It's not like he was at all any interesting?
tonyformer
Well, this could be a mockup for the inside of either the rumored Lockdown's ship or inside the Con Base of which we seen the silo explosions for in Chicago.
Red Goblin
Sure looks like it, with a car inside. And It's the same car from another still with Nicola. I believe it's a Cadillac SRX.
tonyformer
The pic with Nicola about to be grabbed by what will later be a CGI TF is a scene that was shot inside the Michigan Motion Picture Studio. Was told that is either the inside of a Cybertronian-like building/base or inside a ship.
Red Goblin
So characters' names are Cade-Tessa Yeager and Shane Dyson.

Just the first impression I got when I seen a crumbled-up red vehicle. You got Optimus and his new crew racing towards it. New movie with new characters. I hope it's not Dino. I enjoyed his character.

Bite your tongue! Dino better not die, they can take Slingshot but not my Dino!

So, can someone actually post up the article from the mag now. I'd like to see if anything new is said.

Seems like the chinese setting will pay off in atleast beautifull locations.

It's not the orange McLaren. That car was only used in Honk Kong and the red car we see chopped in half here is in the GM testing grounds scene shot in Michigan. I was there when they filmed this. And that red car is not real. It's CGI. All the real cars used in this shot are silver, white and black. Everything else is CGI.

You guys really think that's a transformer? It's just a random car.

If only those crumpled heaps were the remains of the Wreckers.
Dino was such an aesthetically pleasing character, it's sad if they killed him off and let the Nascar abominations live on.
