From Transformers: Age of Extinction to District 9 , Hollywood has happily co-opted the language and imagery of historical propaganda.

This week, new posters for Transformers: Age of Extinction started appearing in major cities, but instead of selling the Michael Bay movie outright, they appeared as if they were anti-Transformer propaganda.

The idea is to present the film's initial premise — that after the cataclysmic "Battle of Chicago" in 2011's Transformers: Dark of the Moon, all Transformers are seen as an existential menace to the planet — as if it were part of the real world.
