Thanks to 2005 Boards member Music for letting us know that early access screenings for Transformers Rise of the Beasts will be coming to the US on June 7th. Right now AMC and Movie Tavern theaters are showing up but other chains may follow. Hit Fandango here to check out the details.
PSA: in addition to these June 7 dates, many US chains are offering it on June 8 as well, during normal times, a full day before the Friday June 9 launch.
In addition, run time was listed on the AMC page as 2 hours and 10 minutes. This may change as we get closer but it gives a ballpark.

Did anybody get a Prime poster at their theater and be willing to trade/sell? My theater only got Primal’s so now I got 3 extra posters.

Not really. 13 mins of credits is not long bro.

My wife and I got tickets for the 7th. I don't have high expectations for the film as a whole but it at least looks enjoyable and hopefully Wheeljack is handled well despite what they did to his face, I think it will be a good time. As long as it's more like Bumblebee and less like the bayverse. I'm curious what the Collectibles are.

Booked my ticket yesterday for the 7th. Zero expectations going in considering the rollercoaster ride this franchise has brought in terms of story and the lack of timeline consistency.

OMG! LOOK OUT! HE'S THROWING LOONIES!
…and remember to dodge the syrup-throwin' machine guns!
(Just messin' with ya. Canada has us beat on the safety aspect, which is kind of scary. Cause y'all got moose just walkin' through town ready to throw down.)

I'm personally okay without those. They take up a ton of space and are hard to display/store. Posters are much easier to roll up and store, and also much easier to display, just hung up on a wall

Again, I wish they would bring these back.

I'm fine with the film length despite some people want it to be two and a half hours. Well ok my opinion may differ if I felt like it needed more time for certain scenes.
Like sure I have control my bladder (never drink soda if I'm getting a meal before the screen and ALWAYS go to the toliet before the film start!) for a long time but that doesn't means I enjoyed watching long film! I'm at the mercy of the train time so I get very annoyed if I have to race back to the train station cos the film ends like ten minutes before the next train depart!

For this sort of thing, it's usually one or two items, maybe a poster and/or collectible coin, special popcorn tin, etc.
I know that Singapore is having a promotional tie-in with a couple toy stores that give away free coins with purchase, so I wonder if some of those coins might also be produced for the fan event showings in the Americas.
At least I hope so. Of the "fan event" items I've gotten over the years, I think the coins are my favorite. Small, not fragile, looks nice.
My least favorite is popcorn tins. What is anyone supposed to do with that after the movie? Large, useless, ugly.

My ticket is in

They are saying there will be free collectibles there. To me, how cheap are they? I wish movie theatres would bring back those collectible cups with the figure toppers. I can already predict ones for this movie, Optimus prime, bumblebee, mirage and Optimus primal.
