This looks a lot better than I was expecting from Michael Bey.

I was rendered almost speechless when I saw it.
I think this is an excitement to rival that I have over Spider-Man 3 - and that's saying a lot.
I've only been a "true" fan of Mr. Bay's since The Island, but this trailer...
I'm game!

The Island? I hope you're being sarcastic. That movie employed every movie cliche you can think of.
I couldn't even make it past the halfway point.

...mmnh, actually I'm not. I'm part of the (very) small crowd that enjoyed it. It's fun.

"The Island" sort of pissed me off because it was basically "Logan's Run," only pretending that it was something entirely new and not associated with "Logan's Run."
Anyway, some of the Transformers in the clip looked cool, some looked kind of hokey. We'll see. Often, movies that rely strongly on special effects have no real story and become unininteresting. Maybe this one will have a story.
I think I would have rather seen a RoboTech movie, though.
IF this keeps up, pretty soon we'll have Solid Snake and Metal Gears running around on-screen, but no Repairman Jack. Maybe if we had a science fiction type Repairman Jack, that would have more chance. New idea for a new series?

Hmmm, looks interesting. The trailer really didn't show enough of the Transformers to tell how good it will be. Optimus Prime was only shown once from the back and I see they added a new Mustang to the crew.
Just have to wait and see if this will be any good, but you know it'll make money no matter what.

Hmm....looks good! I'll go to check it in a theater!

I think the Mustang is supposed to be Bumblebee. They changed Optimus Prime to have flame decals; I'm not sure how I feel about that yet.
One thing I'm wondering: product placement has become ever more popular in movies. If anyone remembers the freeway chase scene in the Matrix 2, all the vehicles prominently displayed were GM; the CTS the agents had, the Escalade Morpheus slashed with the sword--I wonder if most of the cars will be Ford. I know there's a Hummer in there at least.

Hey, Barry. I'm one of small crowds, too.
I like "The Island". It's exciting entertainment action movie. Just sit on sofa, popcorn in the right hand, beer in the left hand.....

Yeah, I didn't think about Bumblebee until after I posted that. And I don't know what to think about OPs flames yet either, but as of right now I don't like them (I really don't like flames on cars anyways though)
Did you notice the little girl at the end had a My Little Pony stuffed animal? Another Hasbro toy...
