In an Interview with the Triple Take Over Podcast. Lorenzo cleared the air and has officially stated that Transformers ONE is NOT canon to the live action films. This is GOOD NEWS but regardless It doesn't take back what he or Josh Cooley previously stated in interviews, making it confusing for us fans. BUT regardless the air is now definitively clear that TF ONE IS NOT Connected to any of the Live Action Movies. - Source news.tfw2005.com/2024/10/07/interview-with-josh-cooley-lorenzo-di-bonaventura-523282

I'm OK with this being its own continuity. That being said, Megatron originally overthrowing Starscream helps explain why, in other continuities, Starscream was always trying to take over, but few (if any) other Decepticons did. It wasn't simple jealousy or ambition. He was trying to reclaim what thought was legitimately his by right.

In the Aligned Continuity he was the original leader of the Seekers. Most of them turned to Megatron when he started gaining political influence and later physical power

Not a bad theory. Personally i hope we get to see the dynamic between Megatron and his high command (Wave, Wave, Starscream) develop naturally. Im excited for the drama 🤩

At the end of One, he seemed pretty fine with Megatron's taking over, so maybe in the sequal when Megatron starts beating him he'll begin to develop his resentment and want to regain control.

Oh god - I could see Megatron seeing Starscream as a stand-in for Orion, who he probably recasts in his mind as a troublesome co-commander who was destined to betray him. I can see him thinking on some level he could get it out, but instead of the rage going away, it becomes more brutal and intense until he gets to the point where he's brutalizing Starscream to near death and letting him live because he's going to need another scapegoat to brutalize tomorrow. I can already see the descent into sadism.

[@dennismoon6693]

That's an interesting take. Even though this is supposed to be its own continuity, I can see this, if it happened in other continuities as well, as providing Starscream motivation - beyond jealosy and ambition - for trying to take over. He sees Megatron as the upstart usurper that took his place, and he wants it back.

[@jjeteuati264]

I thought before this film that Megatron will either turn evil because of pain pushing him to pursue revenge or greed and thirst for power. It must've been hard for the writers to pick one of these paths to turn D-16 into Megatron but now that he got revenge, the most logical progression especially after that post credit speech about deception and betrayal is to have Megatron be in denial and delusion, thinking he is always in the right, so for the sequels they would either let Megatron progress into an actually true leader of his chosen people trying to uphold loyalty and he continues to hate optimus because he doesn't trust so called leaders - even though optimus has the matrix and was chosen by primus - or they find a legitimate way for megatron to be corrupted by evil maybe something with dark energon or something because I don't see a way where his progression to darkness is natural

[@tritex6350]

One thing that I believe goes unnoticed and underrated, is the portrayal of Megatronus. He seems like he’s actually a pretty good guy, it kinda adds even more shame and betrayal when megatron takes his name

The franchise reaches its 40th anniversary this year.

[@natek4488]

There are so many inconsistencies that we'd be here all day. 1. There is no mention of the Allspark in this movie or Bumblebee or ROTB. Even though the Allspark was the reason for the Transformers coming to Earth. 2. The Primes. The Primes all died on Cybertron during the Quintesson war. So, how can they be in a tomb on Earth hiding the Matrix? 3. Megatronus, the Fallen. Died along with his fellow Primes. But wait. Didn't he come to Earth to destroy it using the star harvester? And how can he be leading the Decepticons if he's been dead since long before the war? 4. The Matrix overall. There's no mention of it being able to activate a star harvester. Also, it's supposed to be hidden on Earth thanks to the Primes, and Optimus didn't have it until ROTF. So, why does he have it on Cybertron at the start of the war? 5. Unicron and Earth. In the Last Knight, Unicron is revealed to be the Earth itself. So in 1994, he was a totally separate planet, and he wanted to destroy Earth. Which means he wants to destroy himself? 6. Sentinel Prime. He was torn in half by Megatron in ONE, even though he's meant to be alive for DOTM. Also, if everyone in DOTM as this noble, aspirational figure before his betrayal, when why have him been revealed to be a scumbag before the war starts? Why would Optimus reactivate him if he knew not to trust him? Why would Megatron ally with someone he hated so much? And I didn't even go into the inconsistencies of the Bay films themselves.

I think an interesting way for the OP-Meg’s relationship to go in a sequel is along the lines of what you said. Both start off wanting to turn the other to their side, but whereas Megatron eventually abandons that idea in favor of a blind desire to kill Optimus, Optimus continues to hold that hope while accepting that if he has to kill Megatron for a greater good he will

To be honest, it's not an easy situation. Did Sentinel deserve to die? Absolutely. He was a horrible person who had an ego far too large and far too dangerous, especially given how he was making deals with the quintessons. But did that mean he SHOULD have died? No. Because as we saw, just because someone deserves that fate doesn't mean it will solve everything. Megs got his revenge, but at what cost? He lost Orion, who was trying to keep him from becoming something he could not go back from. He committed the ultimate act of betrayal in his quest to avenge his idol and the other 13 primes and ended up becoming a monster of his own making, allowing the high guard to start tearing down Iacon.

[@wanderingaceminecraftandmo8034]

Transformers Two: Quintessons return for their energon tax. They are trashed and driven back when the battered Autobots are reinforced by the Decepticons, but soon after the truce breaks down and the great war begins in earnest. Megatron develops his energon flail to counter Optimus' axe. Transformers Three: The reason for why Primus transformed into a planet in slumber "to protect the universe" is revealed: To ensure Unicron likewise stays in slumber. Guided by dark whispers Megatron procures dark energon and corrupts Primus' core with it for more power. Optimus arrives just in time to purge Unicron's influence from consuming Primus' spark (while Megatron fights off Unicron's hold, proclaiming no one will ever control him again). Alpha Trion reveals to Optimus that while Primus can heal it off, it comes at the cost of no longer emitting energon for the next few million years, triggering the exodus.

I think the quintessons would be a good way to introduce dark energon in Two. They could be harvesting energon to make it more potent and it's supply is captured by Megatron after he fights them back. Something similar to the games cuz dark energon is found offworld

I think it would be very epic if Tarn shows up, as a major driving force in Megatron’s noble goals turning into something worse. Have him be as one of the new sparks who is similar to Megs in the first act, except even more nuts. However, as the movie goes on, his devotion turns into pure fanaticism and then he decides to try to shank Prime in order to prove himself to his leader. 👀

[@breach-clips1767]

I love the idea of alien descendants of a long dead machine God fighting a long and brutal war against an alien species big enough strong enough, and advanced enough to withstand a battle with cybertronians like there organic counterpart, with the over all motive to seize the heart original factory or energon. Idk about you but gives off some major 40k warhammer vibes. So much potential. Reminds me of trynids vs space marines.

[@AutobotSonicTheTelltaleGamer]

6:48 "Did anyone else cry when Megs said 'I'm done saving you'" YESSSSSSSS! Ohhhhh my GODDDD that part gave me straight CHILLS! EASILY MY FAVORITE PART OF THE MOVIE

I mean I was like “oh no” despite having some issues with Meg’s character in the movie.

[@TomCat0217]

Optimus telling Megatron that he betrayed him, banishing him from Iacon, and watching him and the High Guard leave Iacon was a real gut punch for me.

Not at that exact moment, I did cry a little when I saw Optimus's corpse falling and his friends weeping over the carnage.

This movie gave us another phenomenal Optimus (and of course Alpha Trion originally) quote: “What defines a Transformer is not the cog in its chest, but the spark that resides in their core. A spark that gives you the will to make your world better.” Hearing that instantly made me go “That’s him. That’s my Optimus Prime.”

[@ewantube4555]

Best Transformers movie since 1986. I recommend everyone transformers fan or not watch this, it is a good way to get kids into the series, and its an amazing movie for people who grew up watching the original series even if it is a mix of continuities. 1. they should have released this around thanksgiving or Christmas so more people would watch it it needs a theater re release. 2. The Shockwave "abuse" is amazing one of the best parts of the movie that was purely for laughs.

[@pawarl.o.s.881]

I can easily see this being a Trilogy. TF2 being the Autobots VS the quintessons and the start of the war with the Decepticons and TF3 being about the war itself.

[@robertporter1143]

The more Transformers caters to G1 and move away from Bayverse the better the franchise will do. I know because I'm 49yrs old. I'm A true fan and make allot of money. I also have a Masterpiece Transformers collection worth over 10k and that's small compared to other collectors. (If you don't know what MP Transformers are, look it up) The 80's properties are loved by the people who lived it.

[@brighamgorzealion]

now I don't know much about these bug aliens quintessons compared to the lore of war and fall of cybertron games, but I think them being present will have a crucial element in the next movie. I mean think about it. Cybertronians for 52 (cybertron) years have been occupied as a puppet state of these aliens, sapping all their fuel for their consumption. The lie created the Deception movement, but removing the puppet government and now trying to go to war when as stated in the movie 13 primes were losing the war and now they have only 1 prime and a society that lost most of it's warrior culture last 5 decades would pose that Optimus is setup to fail this war. This will lead the Decepticons more brutal tactics to be an alternative to complete annihilation and lead to their faction swelling with recruits with what I imagine the Decepticons will win this war against these aliens. Right now Megatron is 1 guy and a band of a couple dozen veterans warriors, he'll need half if not most of the world on his side to instigate his civil war. The only way we are going to get the 'fall of cybertron' is if the Decepticons win, the fundamental source of Transformer story is that it's a tragedy where war killed their home world, and right now the majority of the population is on Prime side. Him having majority won't make that result possible. Magatron defeating the Invaders will give him more legitimacy to his ideology and faction since he'd be seen doing what no Prime could 'saving Cybertron from alien invaders and when Optimus and his most loyal circle oppose him he'll have justify means to instigate his war on the Autobots and then you get the story we all remember from that point forward. It would also help give reason why all the other decepticons would hate autobots so deeply since they'd be in their eyes against world unity and are rebels with no cause. It'd give them plenty of reason to Demonize the Autobots to lead to the normalizing of the horrific crimes Decepticons do to Autobots in the back stories shown in old series and lore. Just like Megatrons fall to hatred the people that follow him will now need to make that same fall of war crime hatred territory to become the villains we know as the Decepticons.

[@devist8er117]

I really hope that you continue this and make it a trilogy or something. I feel like the next movie should take place something like a 1000 years later after the planet has been at war for centuries. It shows off the desperate fight between the autobots and the decepticons ending in optimus killing megatron. but it finishes on a cliff hanger with Starscream taking command and sound wave recovering megatron's body. The third movie would be soundwave putting megatron back together few (100?) years later and then taking control away from Starscream. but by that point it's already too late because star scream has made a mess of the war and cybertron is in ruins and they have to leave the planet. I'm not sure how the Quintessons would fit into this but I haven't put much thought into it.

One thing I'd like to add is that I think they handled the Quintessons well, they actually explained what they are and who they are, as before this move I had no clue what the Quintessons, heck I didn't even know they existed, so imo they handled them well

[@TheMegops81]

Great video! I've seen this movie four times now. You should do a video pointing out all who were in the background and in Iacon City and the Iacon City 5000 race. *SPOILER ALERT!!* The build up with D-16 into Megatron had an Anakin Skywalker into Darth Vader vibe. And it started the moment he literally saw Megatronus Prime laying there dead and then the full on transformation ended when he let Orion go and put Megatronus cog into his chest. Really cool! I look forward to the next one.

[@weasley0094]

This movie made me feel like I was watching Transformers on my Saturday morning cartoons again. Absolutely loved it. One thing about the Quintessons though - I think this movie showed just enough of them to establish them as a threat, and that is all it needed to do. The movie was about Sentinal Prime's betrayal and the effects it had on our main characters. The Quintessons are just a way to further that along. I also don't believe they are necessary to be explained either. For viewers who don't know who they are, they set up a mystery to be solved in a future installment, but that mystery isn't important for the story of this specific movie. The movie is 104 minutes, that's a very small amount of time to tell origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, and the decision to focus on that in particular rather than world building everything was good imo. It allowed them to sprinkle in this stuff for future installments but make sure the focus stayed on Optimus and Megatron.
