Audio problem: Anthony Hopkins is in his car with Cogman, discussing Pangea the super continent over the phone with John Turturro. There are two instances in this scene in which Anthony Hopkins' voice has been dubbed over by a different actor that does not sound like him. Anthony Hopkins first says "That's Pangea. The super continent." The scene then flashes back to the round table and the dubbed voice attempting to sound like Hopkins says "It's the same shape on the round table." The dubbed voice is heard again when he says "Genius", before reverting back to Anthony Hopkins immediately after when he says "Stonehenge."
Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)
1 audio problem
Directed by: Michael Bay
Starring: Mark Wahlberg, Anthony Hopkins, Gemma Chan, Laura Haddock
Continuity mistake: When Bumblebee is driving through London there are suddenly a couple of shots from some American town, you can tell from the different street name sign styles. (01:28:35)
Vivian Wembley: When all seems lost, a few brave souls can save everything we've ever known.
Trivia: The dog that Anthony Hopkins is shown walking at his estate is played by a dog named Freya, a dog diagnosed with epilepsy who had been described as Britain's Loneliest Dog, after being cared for by an animal centre for six years, her entire life, and had been overlooked by 18,000 potential buyers.
Question: Is this movie supposed to have floating mattes? This is killing me! It's constantly shifting aspect ratios throughout the entire movie.

Answer: The constantly shifting aspect ratios are due to the fact that Michael Bay shot the film with several different camera types. Most directors who use multiple types of camera find a way to hide the shifts a little better, but Bay appears to have been unconcerned with this issue. There are several scenes where the aspect ratio changes from shot to shot. The aspect ratio shifts were also present in the theatrical release, and were a major source of ridicule then, but they are arguably more noticeable on a smaller screen.
