BUMBLEBEE | 21 DECEMBER 2018 | The end of the Bayformers Universe

[Jonwo]

Looks decent, I think Bumblebee should take advantage of Christmas Day and move there.

This looks wonderful, very emotional and hopefully it's more about Bumblebee and the girl than the girl and annoying boyfriend/comic relief friend-hoping-to-get-into-her-pants/whatever. I'm glad his absent from most of the movie by the look of it.

 

This should do big in Asia - hot Asian chick + mecha action = money. 

You mean you hope it has less of what made people love the first movie and gave it it's humour?

This looks waaay better than Bayformers though from the trailers, can't say the same for the trailers of any of the previous transformers movies which looks like just a bunch of scrap metal fighting each other. Here the character designs for the transformers actually look well defined and have more color as well as look like they actually transformed from their vehicular form. 

 

This is the way I see it now in terms of highest domestic earners this Christmas:

 

1. MPR

2. BumbleeBee

3. Alita (Jim cannot be denied)

4. Aquaman

5. Mortal Engines

Alita will probably miss 100m. No way is it making more than Aquaman

I think it's hard topping Shia Labuf. He was brilliant in TF1-3 and even gave off a great impression it it's trailers. I don't see Halee having the same effect. its just a shame he turned into such a bellend because he is was to Transformers what Jack Sparrow was to POTC

Shia and Meghan were great, really the heart of the first. And she was so stunning, a true pin-up of the aughts.

I miss summer 2007.I think Transformers and Simpsons movie were released on the same weekend in the UK.It was glorious.

The Academy should be ashamed of themselves for not giving the Oscar to the first Transformers.

The deep seeded hatred Hollywood have for Michael Bay is not rational so people make st00pid decisions based on said hatred.

I won't even name the abortion that won the VFX Oscar that year.

Holy crap, that's the G1 I always wanted!

With Hollywood is giving him 200m for doing movies while the Bafta didn't even nominated it:

I am not so sure it is the Hollywood members of the Academy.

Alita is a sure fire flop. Aquaman will be the highest or second highest grossing film this December. I’m sorry but this trailer made me less excited, looks like the same old same old.

Not at all

I agree that Bumblebee looks way better than any TF movie and it actually looks really lovely in its own right. I just don't think that it'll crush Aquaman. There's place for both, I think. The movie that will bomb is Mortal Engines. Steampunk is unpopular, there's no buzz and as soon as bad actors opened their mouth it started to look like the worst YA diatribe ever. 

Alita and Mortal engines are the most sure fire flops this year. Mary Poppins, Aquaman and Bumblebee will all thrive.

Test screenings for this have been great. Paramount has a huge hit on their hands.
