It’s absolutely fake. There was an even better Transformer video floating around a few years ago, not to mention the Citroen ad. The actor’s sightlines are all wrong anyway.

Ah yeah, that Citroen ad was sweet!

Still, this footage looks pretty good to me.

I just wanted to say that I put this up in the IRC about a week ago but didn’t realize that it would apply to this site. I also want to say that the footage has been confirmed fake:

But I still think this footage looks great. I can’t wait to see the movie.

ist that one of those car commercials?

would it be ok if i were to say “i love you.”? i had totaly forgotten about the transformer film. then mosey on down to 4color and bamf! i get a eye full of sweet cgi of transformers. btw, keep up the good work on your site.

The acting is laughable. On par with most geeks who sit around and make fake production footage.

looks a little too true to the source material (from ‘84) to be real. you expect bay to respect the roots? no, all of the tfs will be “dark, brooding and edgy”, no bumblebees allowed. they’ll all be like the vin diesels and jessica albas of transforming robots.

Its fake obviously. But I wonder how real the Transformers will look in the actual movie. ILM is pretty good at what they do but I wonder if there will be any animatronics involved.

If it’s a fake, it’s mighty fine flappidy fake.

i don’t think that is acting at all…the human is there only for perspective (i think). looked like 210 frames of very well done animation.

Anyone here read Pattern Recognition?

one word: nice

I am so ready for this movie. I think it could be best of 2005

Me too, Courtney.

Although it’s gonna be tough to see how it competes with The Island and War Of The Worlds this summer!
