New images of Optimus and Bumblebee from Transformers: Age of Extinction

At this point, I think your mind is set on whether or not you'll be joining the Autobots on another cinematic adventure.  Michael Bay's style has been established over a myriad of action films (THE ROCK, BAD BOYS, THE ISLAND) and he seemed like the perfect fit for some machine-on-machine action.  So far, the human characters have been the biggest gripe of fans but with AGE OF EXTINCTION having a character swap, the fourth installment in the Transformers saga may be just what the doctor ordered.  Plus . . . dinobots!

Check out some of the new images (click for larger versions):

Given the box office draw of the previous three films, the Transformers are here to stay in the cinematic realm. The third film arguably had the most interesting story to tell (I preferred the first myself) but it seems director Michael Bay and writer Ehren Kruger are conscious of what fans disliked and what they crave. I'm not the biggest Transformers fan, but I'm down for a fun, summer action film and am curious to see if this will be somewhat of a reboot, or more of the same.

TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION, starring Peter Cullen (voice), Mark Wahlberg, John Goodman (voice), Ken Watanabe (voice), Stanley Tucci, Nicola Peltz, and Jack Reynor, will take over your local theaters on June 27, 2014.

Does this pose remind you of anything in particular?
