"One hundred billion trillion planets in the cosmos. You want to know, don't you, why they keep coming here?" an exposition-y old man played by Sir Anthony Hopkins asks as Bay continues to attempt to make this movie about robots punching each other look serious.
Even King Arthur is meant to show up for some reason. Yet, amongst this all, there is no hint of a plot until the trailer's final seconds.

Optimus Prime is back, and he's ... wait for it... evil. Gasp! Shock! Horror!
"Forgive me," moans Optimus Prime dramatically as he prepares to murder Bumblebee and Mark Wahlberg, who presumably has a different name in this, but let's be clear, Wahlberg only ever plays Wahlberg.
If you hate yourself and your loved ones and want to spend more than two hours murdering your ear drums, Transformers: The Last Knight is out on June 22.
