Trasnformers 4 trailer (or slow motion robots)

[Kramodlog]

Optimus Prime is riding a robot T-Rex. Micheal Bay must be a genius.

I liked the first flick, hated the second and didn't see the third. Out of a very mild curiosity, who is the villain this time around?

Does it matter?

Dinobots? How are they going to explain those? I thought the Bay Transformers transformed into things they came in contact with, or something like that?

Micheal Bay must be a genius.

[sblock=He is.]

Well, at least they don't have Kurzman and Orci writing it. Mind you, they are continuing the franchise that K&O used to wipe their collective sphincters on, so it is beyond salvage before they even get started.

For all the super-slow-mo action sequences, you can't see the robots properly. It's like they are deliberately out of focus or blurred.
Hell, I'd rather watch stop-motion animation of the toys than these movies the way they are filmed.

Transformers 1 was awful. 2 was even worse. 3 had the benefit of new writers, but still sucked--the big action scene was like the train wreck of super8: it went on for so long that it was impossible to care about anyone, and you just wanted it to be over with already.

Looks like the dinobots and terror-cons are being brought it to try to save a franchise that just desperately needs to be rebooted.

What surprises me is that no one thought it would be fun to build CGI models of the original TFs, animate them to match the original cartoons, and then keep the original audio. I think that could be interesting, and far, far better than the crap that is being made now.
And yes, I'd prefer the original movie to anything being put out now.
I think Beast Was was the last time the TF franchise put out anything good.

from the Transformers wiki http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Ruined_FOREVER

Fans realize something Hasbro does not: that robust 30-year-old billion-dollar franchises, while seemingly healthy, are in actuality as fragile as two bricks tied together with tissue paper. One mistake, one bad mis-step will cause the entire thing to shatter and fall apart; andTransformers would be ruined forever.Fortunately, there is hope. The Transformers fanbase has resolved to remain ever vigilant against something that could Ruin Transformers Forever, and call out a warning if they see something that could potentially do so.
Some Transformers conservationists suggest a more extreme approach, that Transformers should abandon all attempts at re-invention and instead cater exclusively to the old-school collectors. Though attractive, this approach may prove impractical as a long-term solution.
Ruined Forever remains a serious threat to Transformers now and in the foreseeable future, though it's possible a proposed initiative requiring all Transformers fans to purchase an annual plastic offset could ensure our fragile brand's existence through the mid-21st century.

Incidently this page also iinspried the ruined forever page at wookieepedia

This reminds me of Beast Wars. That was a good show.

Interesting. I hated the first, didn't see the second, and partially liked the third (I watched it because I'd seen a trailer with this giant mecha-cthonian worm thing burrowing through a skyscraper - that was awesome! Not much of the rest was, alas...).
