15 Predictions For Next Summer's Biggest Movies

6. Transformers: The Last Knight Is The Most WTF Movie Of The Summer

Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2
Paramount Pictures

The Prediction: With a plot that reportedly revolves around Optimus Prime hunting down an artifact connected to both Merlin and King Arthur, it's safe to say that though the fifth Transformers movie will probably be incredibly dumb, it may also be weird and outrageous enough to pick up a little more acclaim than most of its predecessors. If nothing else, it probably won't be boring and quite possibly the most insane film of the summer.

Why It Might Not Happen: Though it seems dead certain by this point that Merlin and King Arthur are in the movie with the recent emergence of casting reports, it's entirely possible that Michael Bay could somehow find a way to massage these elements into the usual generic, bland Transformers set-up and make them oddly moot.

After all, he's already done it with the moon landings in the third movie, so why not this?
