This is the only alien invasion scene in a movie that made me feel a certain way I can’t explain. Just seeing everyone so helpless die to careless machines is a sight I wouldn’t wish anyone see in person

[@willdill1538]

Similar to war of the worlds (specifically 2005), except here the aliens dont have magical invincible shields nor do they look so 'foreign'. The decepticons have technology and weapons very reminiscent to humans and they themselves look humanoid. That scene at 0:58, where the ships are approaching slowly in the evening just feels so fucking real. Like just watching them come so slowly and that barrage of missiles destroying shit, you really feel so helpless. Additionally, it feels like this can happen in real life. Could be the CGI, the designs but whatever they did they did it VERY well.

@@vibe3063 seems like u didn't watch the movie

[@TheZamaron]

@@vibe3063 Look at the battle this way. The Decepticons had spread around the planet to spread out the pillars to allow CYbertron to be transported, THe Con army in Chicago wasn't super huge. And the AUtobots basically puled off a stealth infiltration, and 1 by 1 took out all of the Con leadership, once the control pillar was destroyed it also had an effect where it pulled all the Con warships back up to the portal, meaning the only ones left were ground troops, very likely they ran and went into hiding knowing they'd lost their leadership, fleet, and any reason to stick around there.

It is honestly insane how good Transformers' CGI is, even the first one had a more realistic CGI than most movies at it's time. They almost look like Practical effects

[@zalabit927]

It's not much about looking like practical effects, but make it blend with the real world. That's what these movies did so good, from the highway chase in the first movie where Optimus fights Bonecrusher to the forest fight on the 2nd movie, and pretty much the entire 3rd movie are still amazing works of CGI, the way they interact with the scenario like they truly are there along with practical effects like explosions and props. Michael Bay compensated the lack of writting with great visuals. A lot of movies these days, especially the MCU, don't care about making CGI blend with the real world, they make entire takes on CGI with little to no real world elements.

The TRF clearly had to detect any badges of incoming Transformers. Any Autobot insignias were allowed to go free. Any neutral Transformers were killed, which is the reason for Bumblebee's reaction in the fifth film. Because they were innocents that took no part in the Cybertronian Wars.

visually yes, storywise it was decent. For me it's the IDW movie comics that salvaged these films and why I still love them so much. At least for the first 3 films the comics did an amazing job building on the lore from the films, and yet surprisingly with each new film the comic writers actually managed to incorperate the new lore into what existed, makig it work around what they'd already written and not needing to scrap what came before. Then TF 4 and 5 threw such a big wrench into it you either need to consider the comics no longer canon, or just make up your own headcanon to make it work, even looking at JUST the films it's a mess now that has no clear story anymore.

0:50 omg i love it its like long haul 2.0 and nice vehicule mode

[@theyoboygamer3754]

That's probably onslaught cuz this vehicle is thicc, and his new one is long. That means that his thickness spread out to length when he scanned the tow truck in The Last Knight

[@DuggzValentine]

@@theyoboygamer3754 i think that is a onslaught PROTO-FORM take a look at trans theories he knows more

[@theyoboygamer3754]

You watched it too? I was referring to that

[@decepticonreaver9139]

You mean Junkheap?

[@jcdenton6427]

They did invasion better than first Avengers movie (where we never see death of civilians at all)

[@DanielGarcia-od1bs]

Same the mcu is dying

[@Srpxc04]

I remember the first time I saw this movie on theater I just got traumatized when the whole Invasion began, it took me some years to recover from it.. Hearing the screams of all that people and watch them dying in that brutal way while still processing the Autobots death, gave me a kind of desperation and sadness that I still remember to this day.

[@noogieyeet1102]

When Decepticons were actually scary

[@epicnavigator]

1:20 this guy try to use his girlfriend as a shield

[@nathayelakgonzales4969]

I think he really did didn't he

[@brendan1470]

That's his employee

[@특촬엔더스]

0:35, 0:48, 1:32 i like that extra's transform (police car, junkheap and Gray or silver truck) that's not 'more than meets the eyes'. but It shows that regular characters aren't the only ones who transform like G1

[@defunctgoosebumpsaccount]

It'd be cool to get studio series figures of those decepticons

[@wendellcolon7003]

​​​@@defunctgoosebumpsaccount Megatron: take it trash Garbagebot: yes lord Megatron 0:54

[@marco3875]

the movie is so good i can't get over it

[@amidwesternadventure5148]

At 1:30 those screams though.

[@LordMegatron-qk2gz]

When a movie from 10 years ago is better than most of mcu phase 4

[@evangelospapadopoulos2292]

So they showed up in Washington and flew all the way to Chicago, with no interference? I mean, where the fuck was the US Air Force. It is not like they couldn't track them, they tracked them just fine when they were three cars in a highway but can't track them when they are an invading force..? It is also not that they didn't have the firepower to damage them. The four major causes of Decepticon deaths have been (a) the army, (b) Optimus, (c) Bumblebee and (d) Sam (for whatever reason)...

[@ianworley7384]

Theres probably portals on different parts of the planet

[@ThePathStrider]

USAF Raptors have a hard time with just Starscream to deal with. They have no chance against those Cybertronian fighters.

[@shealupkes]

@@ThePathStrider in the first one, they cut through transformers like butter by this point

[@Laserbeak316]

Only the Decepticons went through the space bridge portal. They say in the film that over 200 of them passed through the portal and then dispersed after scanning vehicle modes. I think the reason humans weren’t able to interfere as much when this happened was because so many Decepticons suddenly dropped in. Tracking them wasn’t the problem, it’s that there were too many of them to track down before they made their move and invaded Chicago.

[@georgeprosperson5841]

When i first saw this as an 8 year old i couldn't believe how awsome it was, and i tried to recreate this with the transformers toy Also can we just admire the absolute amazing designs of those alien assault fighter jets

[@adrielgrace952]

That dude got hit with a plane at 4:08 then got caught on fire in the back ground @ 4:15 😂😂💀

[@adrianperez3205]

I remember when this movie was being filmed I wanted to go to the loop so I could witness all them explosions as a kid I never did end up going but man watching all them videos of people talking about the movie before it even came out All the set photos This is my favorite movie ever It’s the first movie where I was keeping up with the production everyday

[@shivamkumar001]

Question: when these robots are so advanced, why they keep transforming into primitive vehicles, especially in a war, why not transform like alien ship or tank like megatron in 1,2

[@miguelruiz5502]

"Transformers, Robots in Disguise!"

[@miguelruiz5502]

Megatron is their leader so he has no need to "hide/ Disguise", he wants his presence to be known and feared. Starscream is a perfect example of using modern "primitive" vehicles to their advantage. He was able to blend in and quickly take out afew jets in TF1. Another example is the invasion in TF3, they took the advantage of the suprise invasion and quickly spread out across the city disguised as ambulances, taxis, even a garbage truck, who'd ever suspect a huge stinking garbage truck to ever be one.

[@PBJG5]

1:52 when you experience watching the super Mario Bros movie

[@DeathDragon1730]

In terms of action in the Transformers series, DOTM is the unmatched champion imo.

[@zacimusprime4865]

3:22 starscream just said locusts😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣!!! I’m putting a all out war between the transformers and puny humans in my series😄😎😊👍🏻!!!

[@lalallama171]

I just realised he said that

[@Luna-ii6pz]

0:46 wait a sec don't tell me that all of these police cars and Trucks are actually decepticons

[@manuelgrothe608]

0:35 One Deceptacon that transform into Capitol City Police Department Cruiser and we all know it’s not Barricade
