Briefly: Following yesterday’s Wahlberg-centric character poster, Paramount has debuted two new character posters AND the full trailer for Transformers: Age of Extinction.

As much as I’ve hated on the Transformers series over the years, there are definitely some cool moments to this trailer. The main character being an adult with a family to protect is an interesting deviation from Shia Labeouf, and the much more classically styled Optimus Prime is a welcome change. The Dinobots still looks stupid, but… well, baby steps, right?

You can take a look at the full trailer for Transformers: Age of Extinction, plus two character posters below, and be sure to let us know if you’re looking forward to the film, and what you’re most looking forward to seeing in the full feature.

Briefly: We haven’t seen much from the Transformers: Age of Extinction camp since the first teaser debuted back at the Super Bowl (which also gave us our first look at the Dinobots). Today, Paramount Pictures debuted the first character poster for the film, which naturally features Mark Wahlberg’s Cade Yeager (yep, that’s his name) holding some sort of alien weapon.

You can take a look at the poster below, and be sure to let us know if you’re looking forward to the film! Transformers: Age of Extinction hits theatres on June 27th, 2014.

Briefly: Following the excellent trailer and TV spot for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and the hilarious new look at Muppets Most Wanted, here is the first official footage from Michael Bay’s Transformers: Age Of Extinction:

Yep… I think that most people either really love or really hate the Transformers franchise (you should know by now that I’m in the latter… I haven’t even seen Revenge of the Fallen or Dark of the Moon), but in either case, be sure to let us know what you think of the footage!

As SJ noted earlier todayTransformers: Age of Extinction is slated for a June 27, 2014 release and stars Jack Raynor, Nicola Peltz and Mark Wahlberg, with Peter Cullen reprising his role as the voice of Optimus Prime. Kelsey Grammer recently joined the cast as the villain Harold Attinger, and Glenn Morshower is returning to the role of General Morshower.
