Geekville Radio #263

Seth flies solo to talk the Transformers: War For Cybertron trailer and the first few episodes of Stargirl.

1:09 – Transformers: War For Cybertron – Siege Trailer

The latest Transformers reboot is headed for Netflix at the end of this month. Transformers: War For Cybertron Trilogy – Siege debuted its final trailer this week. It definitely looks to be a very dark story with a bleak future painted for the heroes.

Here are some scenes of note in the trailer.

Ultra Magnus walks in what looks to be a cemetery

Jetfire, Prime, and Prowl approaching a tornado

Bumblebee getting shot up with some sort of flares or blasts

Lazerbeak nipping at the remains of a fallen Transformer

An energy wave like something out of Tron

Optimus Prime wielding an axe like something out of the original mini-series

The series is produced by Rooster Teeth, and is set to debut on Netflix July 30th. FJ DeSanto serves as showrunner, with the episodes written by George Krstic, Gavin Hignight and Brandon M. Easton. Krstic is the co-creator of Megas XLR, while Easton worked on the Thundercats reboot a few years back.
