Watch the Epic New Trailer for Transformers: Dark of the Moon

"Our entire space race of the 1960s was in response to an event," a bespectacled Frances McDormand ominously intones at the beginning of the theatrical trailer for Transformers: Dark of the Moon. What event is she referring to? Oh, just that time when a bunch of giant killer robots burrowed themselves under the surface of the moon, and awaited a signal from Earth to commence worldwide destruction. Click ahead to watch the crazy-pants madness.

Kudos to Michael Bay for allowing the dissonant horn blasts from Inception to make a cameo appearance.

Anyway, this looks awesome. Transformers: Dark of the Moon explodes into theaters (and IMAX) on July 1. Head over to Apple to watch in HD. (You should watch it in HD; just sayin'.)
