Another new TV spot, this time with Ratchet being attacked (betting movie opens with him being killed by Harold's forces). And just in case you are upset about that, i09.com helpfully reminds us about the "Things Michael Cares About More Than Transformers".

Here is the fourth TV spot for Transformers: Age of Extinction. The new to us scenes is a quick line from Kelsey Grammer as human big bad Harold Attinger.

Early this morning we got a look at a new Transformers: Age of Extinction TV spot that aired during "The Voice." Below is now the official HD release of the same video that includes a mini-interview with Imagine Dragons. The band wrote a new song for the movie and soundtrack called "Battle Cry" that is part of the spot. The second video uses a few seconds of new footage to announce the band's participation in the world premiere of the movie in Hong Kong. Thanks to Feris O. for the links.

Below is a new TV spot that has a few new scenes that feature Hound and Grimlock with Imagine Dragons' Battle Cry playing in the background that played during NBC's The Voice. Its a cam recording but hopefully soon an official version will be posted. Update: Clearer version of same spot thanks to Feris O.

At part of an agreement with Samsung, Transformers is part of the promotional campaign for their new line of Curved Ultra HDTVs. In the United Kingdom, the product was introduced to the press using footage from all four movies. The key video to pay attention too is the first one, specifically at the 2:45 mark when the word "Prepare" appears. Until then its all footage from the first three movies or the 4th movie trailers. After that it is a series of very quick cuts that shows a bunch of new scenes and explosions from Transformers: Age of Extinction. Make sure to toggle the gear icon to 720p so can get the most detail. While it seems like a 30 second TV spot, at various times the bank of 7 HDTVs are displaying different moments from the film at the same time. The second video is when the product was introduced but people get in the way before the new stuff is shown.

During tonight's MTV Movie Awards, a new TV spot aired for Transformers: Age of Extinction. Thanks to Mackie U. and Feris O. for the heads-up.

A new TV spot for Transformers: Age of Extinction has been posted online. Not sure what show it aired with or when. It really is just a much shortened version of the first teaser trailer with no new footage. Thanks to Feris O. for the link.

Update: From the comments, the spot aired during last nights 2014 Kids' Choice Awards. Also, it was accurately pointed out that this is TV spot #2 since the Super Bowl spot is really #1. A better quality version of TV Spot #2 is up at MovieWeb.

Update 2: Seems Paramount has pulled the spot from everywhere.

Paramount Pictures International YouTube channel has started to post a revised edition of the the Transformers: Age of Extinction Super Bowl TV Spot. Its the same sequences as before but the CGI sequences has been replaced with the revised versions as ILM continues to work on the movie. The text has almost been modified to match the new title font. Most of the differences were already put in animated gifs. The CGI of the previous movies remained a constant work in progress right up to deadline so see little reason why that would not continue here as mistakes are removed and adjustments are made to improve the quality. The first vid is the new version of the Super Bowl trailer, the second vid is the original if feel like trying to compare and contrast.

Super Bowl XLVIII teaser trailer for Transformers: Age of Extinction has landed. If want to view most of the other Super Bowl ads and trailers hit AdBlitz or NFL. Links below.

Update 1: Added the sweet animated gif from io9.com.

Update 2: The transformers_movie Instagram account (link below) has posted screenshots with labels for some of the characters. Its a fan run account so still nothing official. From those labels, the guy in beginning of trailer below giant ship is Lockdown. He is also the guy that had head transform into a gun and is holding Optimus upside down. The two headed thing is identified as Strafe (aka Swoop), and parachuting Autobot is Crosshairs. Again none of this is official, just speculation. The gray, Megatron looking robot is probably the alt mode of the gray Freightliner truck. Thanks to Feris O. for the heads-up.

Update 3: Hi-res screencaps at the TFW2005 link below for those that really want to dissect the trailer. Also updated the blog title banner. Thanks to Jeffrey Marshall of Pixel Rally who has been updating those banner over the years. The new one makes use of the Age of Extinction font style from the trailer.
