I've heard that one before.

I really don't understand why they are trying to end Bayverse, yet they are wasting time and money on this stillborn zombie.

What do you mean trying? Bumblebee is the last movie set there. As to why they didn't can this, well, they had already pumped the money into it so might as well see it through, at the very least we'll see what happens when you have someone else in charge.

We have a new piece of vital news for those following the vital updates on this story - a new logo change / reveal for the Bumblebee movie, at least in terms of the licensed and toy products associated with the Transformers live action spin-off feature.

You'll remember we initially had the angry bee logo showing up for a numeber of stories, including this one here, and that seemed to be it; a recent post then showed a cleaner version for products, with the second B capitalised as the first. It looks like this latter style is the one used by Hasbro during the Licensing Expo 2018, according to the event's Twitter account, and you can check it out below!

Catching up on some Transformers Bumblebee news, we have a general round-up of the latest bits and pieces - as we wait for June 5th and the arrival of the first actual (teaser) trailer for the first and last Paramount Transformers spin-off in this continuity.

With order then:

- The official marketing campaign has begun, with a teaser logo screen in anticipation of the teaser trailer due this week, as posted by the official Facebook page for the movie.



- Some reshoots are taking place for the movie, in the aftermath of the pre-screening at CinemaCon we reported on [url]here[/url], according to lead actress Hailee Steinfeld.



Are you excited to see what this might all look like? Let us know in the Energon Pub discussion boards!

The various Transformers Movie social medias have started to post a series of promotional videos from the cast and crew of the upcoming Bumblebee movie. There are two out currently, one from cast member John Cena and the other from director Travis Knight. It's likely that there will be more down the line, potentially from other cast like Hailee Steinfeld. These videos also confirm that the first trailer for the film are premiering tomorrow, so definitely stay tuned to Seibertron.com for news as to when that drops! Check out the two embeded below, and check back later to see if any others have been posted!

wait.... people who grew up with transformers are directing transformers? what madness is this? surely your supposed to hire people who know nothing of the brand? (sarcasm)

This piece of live-action news may have also been skimmed over in the past week, but with the first actual trailer for the Paramount Transformers universe Bumblebee Movie due out this Tuesday 5th June, it's definitely worth covering!

Via KidsCoolIt website, in which kids do the reporting and framing, we get some type of confirmation that Barricade - the villainous character that first approaches the human cast in the 2007 live action movie - will be back (?) in the 80s set prequel this Christmas, as his voice actor Jess Harnell is introduced as such and answers a couple of fan questions; check out the clip below, and let us know your thoughts in the Energon Pub discussion boards!

Meh.

Im just excited for a 80s baricade!

Nice.

He carries a nice presence in voice.

Oh I mentioned that in the Studio Series thread a week ago but didn't realise it hadnt been a news thing til now. Trailers up by the way.




NOt sure i like Bee's new robot design. Bit too basic for me but eh it's still my Bee. Starscream looks neat (if a bit too G1 for my tastes but that should please some folk). Movie looks fun but they I've enjoyed all the 5 main ones too so that's just me.

Yeah I just came across it. Gonna get it newsed ASAP!

I've been watching it on loop for past 20 mins (warming to Bee's new design now even if it is more kiddy-robot than the more badass design he had before but that makes sense even if just cos this is in the 80s). I do love how she's looking under the car and finds his eyes and they light up and he transforms. That's a neat transformation scene. Time being confirmed as latter half of 1987 by Rick Astley.

As of midnight here in the pacific time zone, Paramount Pictures has posted the very first trailer for the upcoming Bumblebee: The Movie on Youtube. A quick acknowledgement to Carnivius_Prime for noticing the trailer had been submitted. We have posted it below for your viewing pleasure.

In this two minute clip fans will notice a difference in the atmosphere of this film in comparison to the past five live-action films directed by Michael Bay. Instead of the rough, action packed flicks we are used to this preview seems to hint at a sense of wonder. Have a look and tell us what you think!

I'm getting rick roll'd and its 2018!

I'll admit I have some hopes for this flick. It looks like its got some real potential. It has a good sense of wonder. Kinda makes me think of ET in a way. I like TF series better where Transformers are sentient robots rather than just war machines. I love a good robot fight but its the characters that draw me in and keep my interest in the series.

If they can make this movie as good as the trailer makes it look we could have a major success. I think it does matter how they advertise too. Make sure people know the movie is different from the previous five so they don't dismiss it.

You are welcome. Gave you the news credit as a kudos since you probably technically found it first.

Not generally a fan of the movies, but this actually doesn't look half bad. Especially like what Starscream looks like from what I can tell by his short appearance. Might actually end up going to see this one

I learned a long time ago not to get excited by trailers. I normally don’t even bother watching them. I obviously made an exception here though. I really want this to be good. It’s hard not to get excited seeing a smaller, more classic looking Bumblebee, and a Starscream that harkens back a little more to his G1 design. That face looks great.

It took me a long, long time to come around to Starscream’s movie design, but I’ve come to really appreciate it for its uniqueness. That being said, I’m very glad to see this new design. Now let’s just hope he isn’t spewing oil and lubricant everywhere.

if the new bumblebee movie toy will looks like that, he will be the first movie bee toy i actually willing to buy. also, i bet the toy will have visible head syndrome from the bottom, and they will actually advertize it on the box as "screen accuracy"

I'm all hyped and now have the urge to buy another Studio Series figure even though I told myself no more for a while cos I've bought 8 in the past couple months (including one Leader and three voyagers) and I have no job but damn I want another now, most likely Stinger cos haven't got that one yet but i liked it when my friend was showing it to me. Anyways, off out. I've copied the trailer to my phone. I frickin' love the Transformers live action movies more than any other TF fiction so I'm in a good mood today. Have a good day, folks! Seeya!

I don't like the look of this AT ALL. It looks like some type of children's movie... I hate that ****.

Only thing that has me interested is how Starscream looks. I hope at least he does some damage.

Oh good lord Sly is back. Away with ye.


Added some screencaps to the story!

Starscream is making that breath holding face like: (o H o)
