The new trailer for Transformers: Age of Extinction has just come out and it's nothing short of awesome. Besides a shot of Optimus mounting a robot dinosaur and kicking robot backsides, we also get to see his arch enemy, a yet "unknown" Decepticon arriving into battle as a Lambroghini Aventador.
There have been plenty of supercars that transform into man-killing robots over the years, but none have played a leading role. Could the Aventador be a new version of Megatron? No, this is Lockdown, a Decepticon bounty hunter. His job in the movie is to kill Optimus and all the other robots defending earth.
Also featured in the movie is Galvatron, a human-made Transformer who becomes immensely powerful and tries to destroy the planet.
Transformers has always been the movie franchise that nobody wants to see and everyone watches in the end. The first movie earned $709 at the box office, the third beat all expectations with $1.12 billion. Director Michael Bay is completely changing the already successful formula with a brand new cast of actors. Gone is Shia LaBeouf, replaced by Mark Wahlberg. He plays a struggling mechanic who's life is completely changed after bringing a broken down truck to his home. Need we say more?
Bigger robots, bigger explosions and supercars? We're in! The fourth installment in director Michael Bay's sci-fi action franchise will open in cinemas on June 27, 2014.
Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s. He also loves local car culture from all over the world, so don't be surprised to see him getting excited about weird Japanese imports, low-rider VWs out of Germany, replicas from Russia or LS swaps down in Florida.
