TRANSFORMERS ONE is the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once were friends bonded like brothers who changed the fate of Cybertron forever. In the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie, TRANSFORMERS ONE features a star-studded voice cast, including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi with Laurence Fishburne and Jon Hamm.

This certainly looks like a Transformers movie directed by Toy Story/Pixar talent

Chris Hemsworth does a pretty good Optimus

I'm just going by what the live chat of the IN SPACE trailer video went and it didn't seem like they liked it much.

Seems like they just got a bunch of Celebrities to do a whole bunch of quips instead of try and tell a story. Wall of Celebrities at the end of the trailer rears it's ugly head as well.

And the artstyle... err... well, it's different from the norm I suppose? But didn't look all that impressive. Though maybe I need to rewatch the trailer from the source that isn't an Ipad in Space to get a better grasp on it's visuals.

You know what fine I laughed. Never thought of a transformers family comedy but I'm here for it.

It looks fine. It's not a project made for fans in their 40s, clearly, and that's fine. We can't carry the fandom forever.

Chris's Optimus voice isn't half bad… but why isn't Starscream part of the crew?

Brian Tyree Henry REALLY doesn't fit as megatron, even a younger version.

Art style looks good tho.

Can it be considered Live Action ? xD
I mean the cybertron scenes from the live action movies were all cg anyway =P

When they said this was going to be animated I was hoping it was going to be an entire movie that looked like the first 10 minutes of Bumblebee. Disappointed.

This is also one of those trailers that feels like it spoils the whole movie. Why spoil their first transformation like that?

Who is this even for? The style and dialog makes it seem like it's for kids, but them Bumblebee calls himself Badass-a-tron.

You know what, sure. I'm down for a goofy comedy Transformers movie.
More than Meets the Eye was goofy as crap and it worked well, so this could too.

Don't agree at all with this thread about the art direction. Love that it's something new and I think it fits really well. Also glad we're finally getting a more light-hearted movie.

Also, don't be fooled into thinking this is just a big goofy romp. Definitely more fun than last entries, but there's some heavier stuff going on here too.

Looks fine to me! I'm not sure how I feel about the faces but otherwise I'm all for a more comedic Transformers incarnation.

Cool idea but I hate the design of pretty much everything.

Better than Bayformers I guess.

Prime should never have a visible mouth.

Please stop trying to make it happen.

Kids are going to love this.

Hollywood animation is such a shame. Everything has to be a comedy.

Objectively though this looks pretty terrible across the board.

I notice on the poster "Bayhem Films" listed, is that a new film studio that got formed for this, or an offshoot fo Michael Bay's previous one, I tried a google search and surprisingly not a lot showed up for it.

Looks like a movie i will never watch unless my kids drag me to it in which i will probably have an alright time i have not cared for the majority of Transformers movies/shows for the past 20 some years.

Can we stop giving them human lips though.

So hang on…

Megatron and Optimus are teen buddies that work in space mines and cannot transform for reasons.
A weird robot wizard gives them magical light ball power that suddenly allows them to transform and have cool battle action poses.
Queue the intended uprising against whoever is in charge of slaver mines.

Is that what I just witnessed?

I thought it was fine but no different from so many CG TF shows. I won't be watching it but I don't hate it or anything.

Way more goofy comedy then I expected but will give a try, I remember people feeling the same about Transformer Animated based on the previews but then ended up loving it.

I like Optimus being a humble worker-class joe again like he was in the G1 Cartoon (dock worker there), feels WAY more appropriate then him being a cop.

Holy crap their Action Masters!

Elita-One is never getting her time powers back is she :(

Going to assume the slavers here are the Quintessons, basically scaling down the timeline.

Voices I agree aren't the best.

I was hoping for the animation to be a bit more experimental like SpiderVerse and TMNT, not really doing it for me.

I thought this would be in the style of the flashback in bumblebee for some reason. Wishful thinking
