    King Arthur was not played by Sir Anthony Hopkins.

    Saw Drift in vehicle mode only. I saw Hound shooting with his minigun (same shot as the trailer).

    Good question! I don't know if it can be taken off but Cogman touched it and it sounded like metal, so it's probably stuck.

    Aggressive/reckless. His side mirrors seemed to pop off while transforming. After the transformation he did the breakdancing from his motion poster.

    I did not see the Mercedes Benz junk truck.

    1. No he didn't. He did break his fingers though.
    2. I didn't catch this unfortunately. I was focussed on his head and the parts that were falling off.

    Does Jerod Carmichael's character die? (I hope not)

    Eh... Not entirely true. When you stream anything, including YouTube videos, you're caching to your device which is a download, temporary or otherwise. Downloading illegal material of any kind is, in fact, illegal. The only catch is they have to PROVE you did it, etc. So in general, no, you won't get in trouble, but it won't always be that way.

    Was the footage in 2D or 3D? And was there behind the scenes stuff attached or was it all footage from the actual movie?

    The footage was in IMAX 2D.
    The behind the scenes stuff was before the footage from the movie. First there was a segment of really shooting the movie , then a word from Michael Bay himself followed by footage from the movie.

    I'll be watching it soon too, but how do you feel about TF5 now? What I'm basically saying is after all the hype, concept art, set visits etc., has your expectations changed?
    Thanks :bay

    Well, I was already pumped for TF5. There are still a lot of things I didn't see (Megatron, Barricade, the Creators) so I'll be there opening day.

    What is your question exactly?

    Does Cogman actually disable Crosshairs completely or just break his fingers? What kind of interaction did they have? (he sounds pretty funny, a robot like Alfred)

    Also, thanks so much for answerign everyone's questions!

    Any more scenes of Barricade?

    Anything new about Optimus? Who was he fighting on that ship, from the trailer scene where he got punched?

    Were any of the past autobots/decepticons mentioned, or Sam, Carly or Megan Fox's character(dont remember the name)?

    Is the writing better? Is it less cringy? And how good is the CGI?

    Thanks man :)

    Thanks for sharing what you saw. :)  It's really interesting to read descriptions of something I've yet to see. Yeah it's spoiler-y but it still leaves a lot to my imagination.

    So was it just footage from the movie, or was there behind the scenes stuff too?

    Thanks for answering. But I'm curious. Someone from instagram (who is also a member here) said Hot Rod spoke with an accent but you said he didnt. :confused:  Of course I'll believe you.

    Sorry, got some more questions...

    Did you see the medieval scenes? Do they hold up well, especially the fights?

    Were there any scenes with Lennox?

    Does Grimlock get to show his robot mode, and does he speak?

    Were there any space scenes?

    Crosshairs wanted to help Cade because Cogman kept saying that Cade needed to come with him. Cogman's response was to throw Crosshairs on the ground and break his fingers.

    And no problem! Just a happy fan sharing information with the fandom :) 

    1. Not much new on Optimus, just small extended bits of footage we've already seen. I don't know who he was fighting. My guess are evil/possessed Knights of Cybertron.
    2. Nope to all of those.
    3. I can't judge based on the footage that I saw. There were callbacks to previous films so the continuity is there. And with callback I mean the Ark and Witwicky quote. The "Michael Bay" humor was still present though. The CGI was good for the most part. There was a scene however where Bee was walking on grass to the castle of Sir Anthony Hopkins' character that looked really unfinished.

    There was a behind the scenes section and a word from Michael Bay prior to the footage itself.

    Hmm, maybe there are different versions of the footage? Don't think so though.
    From what I've seen Hot Rod was supposed to talk to Vivian, but the voice acting wasn't done yet so no speaking from him.

    1. Yes I did, probably the beginning of the movie. Looked pretty intense and dark.
    2. Just a bit that we've already seen but extended a little.
    3. Grimlock was not featured in the footage.
    4. Yes: Optimus floating in space, talking to the Creator and a couple of Cybertron (?) approaching earth.

    I guess UK had a slightly different footage? It's really odd.
