Plot point for the scene (spoilers):
[sp]According to director Michael Bay this will be the location of a heroic turning point scene, which takes place after the fall of Hong Kong. A group of Transformers will meet up with another group Transformers where they battle their way out of a crater (Wulong Karst is known for it's sink holes) that was apparently created by a crashed starship. After the Wulong Karst battle they return to Hong Kong. [/sp][/QUOTE]
What's with the Transformer's movie explosions all looking like that.
Flames + smoke trails + sparks.

Also from the Magazine, new plot details (MAJOR SPOILERS)
[sp]The cast is rounded out by Li Bingbing, who is described as "the CEO of the Chinese Transformers" and Kelsey Grammar as Harold Attinger, who is being called the film's non-robot big bad.
Earth is scarred by the events of the past three movies, but is moving on after all the giant robots disappeared. Cade Yeager, an inventor, discovers a buried Transformer which sets the stage for the return of the rest of the Transformers[/sp] -TFW2005
[editline]28th November 2013[/editline]
Also, I can't edit OP for some reason, so the movie names are incorrect in OP. Cade Yeager is Mark Wahlberg and Nicola is Tessa Yeager.
*Mark Wahlberg as Cade Yeager, an inventor.
*Nicola Peltz as Tessa Yeager, Cade's daughter.
*Jack Reynor as Shane Dyson, Tessa's racer boyfriend.
*Stanly Tucci as Stanley, whose role is unknown at this point.
*Sophia Myles as Darcy, a geologist.

I imagine the dinobots are going to be the villains right? I guess is this going to be like the more TF: Animated series counter part. Not the Dinobots from 80's who were sort of comic relief characters.
Well, there was that spoilerific picture of a dinobot and autobot I posted a while ago, but that was just concept art.
Also, first official teaser for Transformer 4 will be aired during the Super Bowl! A teaser will follow after that.

So Autobots look like colorful Decepticons now? I know the design of robots in these movies was always just "make them look cool and complicated". But there was a small distinction between the two groups with Decepticons being more spiky (and grey/black). Eh, why do I even care, I hate these movies.
I think that the new Bumblebee looks quite similar to the Transformers: Prime Season 3 Bumblebee and I don't think that it's a coincidence given the popularity of the show and how much it shared designs from the Bayformers.

This is the biggest piece of shit I've seen out of transformers in a good while.
Yeah it's really bad. But sadly, Hasbro wanted to cut down on complicated transformations supposedly to reduce costs.
[t]http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/attach/1/smash-change-optimus-prime_1390184175.jpg[/t]
[quote]But as the brand evolved over the years, the toys became more complex, some involving dozens of steps to complete a single transformation. In the eyes of Brian D. Goldner, Hasbro’s chief executive, they had lost their magic.
“We’ve made incredibly sophisticated robots,” he said, “but it can be like a 1,000-piece puzzle.”
______________________
The toys’ streamlined transformations also address the need for instant gratification sought by children today, she said. “A toy like this gets them where they are going faster.”
______________________
Hasbro will continue to make complex Transformers for adult fans who have collected the toys since their inception 30 years ago. But the new design is intended to re-engage parents and children, who found the transformations too challenging.[/quote]
Wow that fucking kibble.

i'll reserve my opinion on this new optimus until i see it in action on screen. also that's bullshit, i used to collect beast wars when the show was on, and that was back when i was like from the ages of 5-8. shit's not hard, kids are just stupider these days. i can still transform my transmetal 2 megatron without looking up the manual, nor do i know where that manual is.
Well to be fair, that isn't even voyager/deluxe, so

To be fair, there are some (Perceptor, Straxus) that make me want to throw them against a fucking wall.
