    If we are lucky, it will be the last night. There is a pretty good chance.

    The logo and title are uninspired at best. Another part of human history being shoehorned into the TF's for no reason other than they can't write TF characters or mythology. And they don't care for TF. Just in it for the money, so I say don't give it to them.

    That font is so generic it hurts.

    More aweful spikey shell-former toys !




    That's actually good news, because that kind of stuff will make all other lines look like pure gold in comparison.

    meh who cares what the title is really.

    the movie will be just as crappy as the last few.

    no continuity, all bots get new bodies as always to promote car companies, tons of product placement as always, and yadda yadda yadda we know the drill. and bay won't let the creators create.

    don't even know why bay doesn't do the writing himself since he's such a control freak anyway.

    I just hope that TF6 is The Last Knight Rises. Be right up there with Transformium (or whatever they called the melted down bots in TF4).

    Pardon me if someone has already said this, but...

    "The Last Knight"? With Stonehenge as a confirmed filming location?

    I think Bay is going to pull more of that Transformers-Being-Really-Really-Important-In-History BS and claim that European Knights were inspired by Transformers.

    ...weren't the dinobots Knights, too?

    I know I'm trying to get logic out of a bayverse movie, but...y'know.

    Also, purple eyes = evil op = possible corruption to Nemesis Prime?

    Writers for Iron Man to do TF5? Awesome sounding title? I have a glimmer of hope for this one. Then again I was tricked into thinking was a good 'start-over' hopefully this is the one we've been waiting for.

    Have to admit, I love the face, but I'm not quite sure about the font changing. It's beee almost 10 years of using that font, kinda odd to see it go.

    Also, now prime has purple eyes. Dark energon?

    Still, I am optimistic

    Thank you SO much!

    Like I was saying, everyone should click the link in my sig for my essay explaining the knighthood themes in TF 3, 4, and 5, it helps explain how BRILLIANTLY they used the word "temenos" AND I'm pretty sure it helps explain the filming at Stonehenge, too.

    Oh, and I updated the first post just now to include all the stuff about Transformers: The Last Knight that's buried later at the end of the thread otherwise too, btw.

    Enjoy!

    I could see the Dinobots being the inspiration and their dino modes creating the dragon myths

    That actually makes sense: Robot Modes (Knights) fighting Dino Modes (Dragons) = Dragon fighting myths

    Sigh, I am so tired of Bay trying to insert the Transformers into history though...

    I have to admit, when I saw that video on Fb earlier I thought it was for a fan film.

    Then I noticed Transformers posted it. Not sure what to think right now, just wait and see I guess. I didn't watch AoE in theaters so the odds are stacked against this one with me. The only saving grace I see right now is Iron Man's writers, hopefully they can make something out of this.
