I was very excited to see the trailer come out, and it did not disappoint me.
For starters, Primal is the star of the movie so far in my eyes. Perlman already is showing a much better performance than PotP, he sounds much more natural in the role. And the CGI on Primal looks good. I love his design.
The Beasts all look good, I like the beast machines/live action filter applied to the beasts, I am excited to see more of them in action.
Mirage looks like he'll have some degree of prominence. I loved that scene of the holographic duplicates, and his transformation seemed fun.
Arcee has a nice look, I like the update for the bike mode, and her visor and that last shot of her giving the "hiya" wave were good looking.
i want to see more of Wheeljack, my wife loves VW buses, and I want to see more after seeing a shot of his back.
Bee looks good, though that transformation shot looked a bit unfinished. I'm happy to see him with door wings again, a classic that I love.
I like Prime's design a little more now, though the area between window boobs and knees still looks odd and I don't like it. I like his new gun (even if it looks like Dropkicks), and I like that they gave him the 2007 face again. The faceplate mask-up scene was good looking too.
Battletrap looks good, glad to see him around a couple times.
Scourge is the one thing that I don't know how to feel about. Given his truck mode, I was hoping he'd have a more muscular look instead of that lanky look he has.
The other thing that bothers me: when Primal splashes around, nothing but him gets wet. That irks me. Hopefully the CGI is improved over the next several months, but this is also the first film not to use ILM, so we are going to be testing some new CGI with this movie. Hopefully it doesn't suck.
But overall, very positive, I am excited, it blends all the live action movies together pretty well from first appearances, and I am excited. Wife even said it looked interesting and fun, and she is not a TF fan.
