The first trailer has dropped for Transformers: Rise of The Beasts, aka, the Beast Wars movie. It looks interesting, but we’re a little confused as to why the Maximals are all so much larger than they have appeared in other versions. I guess they wanted them to be the same size as the regular transformers. Still, it doesn’t really make sense to have a 20-foot-tall robot Cheetah. The movie takes place in the 90s, which has us thinking this could be a sequel to the Bumblebee movie from a couple of years ago.

“Returning to the action and spectacle that have captured moviegoers around the world, Transformers: Rise of the Beasts will take audiences on a ’90s globetrotting adventure with the Autobots and introduce a whole new breed of Transformer – the Maximals – to the existing battle on earth between Autobots and Decepticons.”
