Transformers 2007 - Caravan Of Garbage

[@jonfrombuckland_3784]

Oh my gosh. Did I just realize Megan Fox's character Michaela Baynes is just Michael Bay, but young, hot, and a laady. So of course she is the most interesting character in the movie, because Michael really just loves himself. That's what I'm alleging anyway.

[@joewoodfilm]

Woah, that's kinda freaky tbh

[@jakubrejak1114]

somehow, this makes sense

[@glennwelsh9784]

Holy crap, how did I not realize until now that he named the character after himself? Granted, I only watched it 2 or 3 times total, but I'm pretty sure her full name is said at least once during the film. It's just as well if a female character in a Michael Bay movie didn't have a last name at all, since they're usually just there for their power to command boners.

[@antzpantz]

I think it's because her name is spelled "Mikaela Banes" to hide that fact... and now I'm shook.

manticorephoenix how dare you compare the first transformers to the last air bender. If they only ever made the first movie and then stopped everyone would consider it a classic. Not because it’s some mind blowing twisty story....but because it nailed everything it aimed to do and brought the transformers to life in a way that visually blew everyone’s mind.

Seeing this movie in the theaters, while they were making out on BB, my friend turned to me and said, "That would be like if me and my girlfriend were making out on you." I was disappointed to learn that it had not been a sly invite.

[@jaycob1830]

I love how u say all the Decepticons look the same while showing clips of the Decepticons from the first movie, who are all easily distinguishable from eachother

[@jskyler5422]

Beast Wars was the best iteration. The toys were god tier as a kid. Optimus was an ape, bumblebee(or whatever he was called back then) was a cheetah, and megatron was a t rex and it was glorious.

[@Commander_Shepard.]

Those were completely different characters. That wasn't Optimus Prime, or Bumblebee or Megatron.

[@jskyler5422]

@@Commander_Shepard. It was 100% them dude... They may have used iterations of the name but that was THEM.

[@Commander_Shepard.]

@@jskyler5422 What no, you're lying.

[@dfailsthemost]

The sound design is what got me. I think it's amazing.

[@BubbleBlacKa]

I absolutely love this movie, the rest of the Bayformers though....

[@v-trigger6137]

3rd one was decent. it tried to resolve criticisms from the second one, but in return it came up with it's own massive problems.. overall the first one is the best, as far as Bayformers goes

[@glennb6020]

TurboTime I despise the 3rd one. It’s so bland: but each to their own

[@griffroundtree8225]

I actually liked the entire lebouf trilogy, 2 easily being the worst but 1 and 3 to me where good movies

[@spidermonkeynuts3851]

First 3 are good last two are not good

[@overlordsalem2706]

1 and 3 are good. 2 and 4 are garbage. Haven't bothered to watch 5.

[@grm_variety_hour]

Without this movie, we wouldn't have megatron burning people at universal studios

[@rayvinkrossing]

The Deceptions in the movie do have they're own transformations. Barricade is the Police Car, Brawl is the Tank, Bonecrusher is the military Mine Sweeper, Blackout is the Helicopter, and the weird little freak bot is Frenzy

[@Coolbeast1020]

I fist started with the KZbin channel but later I listened to the podcast and have love you both ever since. Westworlding

[@nomorepartiezz]

I know the later movies went off the rails but you can’t ever convince me this movie sucks haha. Too much nostalgia. It came out when I was 6/7 and i think i watched it like 100 times back in the day, it basically defined my childhood.

[@elbarto4595]

Me too men, this movie is amazing even with the flaws it has

[@-M0LE]

You were a kid Open your mind and see how shit it is

[@doodles2312]

It's alright to admit something is bad and still enjoy it lol

[@lordkaedehara2312]

Child.

[@calebh8944]

I also love it for nostalgia reasons, but i do think it's objectively a decent movie. Certainly levels above the sequels

[@iambodybuildingyt221]

Transformers 2007 had so many memorable moments. All the times Sam said no, the first time we see the autobots, the fights, the car sales man, and can't forget I ate whole plate the whole plate.

[@Nuclear5094]

"Uncle Bobby B baby!"

[@raulportela3039]

First of all, bless you two for tackling this series like we begged. Secondly, bless Ben. Both for leaning into the insanity and for just being great

[@twstf8905]

Haha 3:29 😅 (The editing is seriously what keeps me coming back here lol it's just brilliant!) 😁

[@will_da_man_]

I've been waiting for a Transformers episode for ages! 1, 2 and 3 are like my favourite guilty pleasures of all time...

[@bangbus2350]

Yeah I agree I think the first 3 are actually really good and fun.

[@astralflick]

Pirates of the Caribbean 2&3 are my guilty pleasures

[@bobsandwich3431]

1 and 3 are great for me

[@NoArmsSally]

Man I like em all, but yeah 1-3 are my favorites. If they ever do make the 6th one, I'll be there to watch it

[@will_da_man_]

@@astralflick but the first three POTC movies are actually good...🤯

[@johnnydjiurkopff]

Yo, i love the fact you guys shouted out Guy Fierri. I was a campfire victim and he did a bunch of charity stuff for us during the aftermath

[@jimjam7928]

1:15 Seeing Alex Kurtzman associated with anything is a good shorthand for knowing that it's gonna suck.

[@Davidsworldtravels]

Yea good lord his hackiness goes back further than I realized. Guess I've hated his shit writing even longer than even I knew. And yet he keeps getting high end franchises to ruin.

[@michaelw6277]

There is no reason why any of the Transformers movies needed to be more than 90 minutes long.

[@snedbag1727]

You can’t deny, these movies are visually stunning.

[@viddork]

I was definitely stunned.

[@mutt9779]

I always felt like Michael Bay movies are the rare guilty pleasure where I can agree "yes, sometimes I do just wanna turn off my brain and watch some mindless crazy action" Then I get bombarded with those ads...... fucking hell.....

[@Ziomaletto]

Wish I could say the same. Can't stand this spasmatic camera during action scenes.

[@rosssapp6990]

I remember really enjoying this movie when it first came out. But after the bad sequels the flaws in the first one really stand out.

[@schools6555]

The Liam Neeson truck head made me laugh my ass off! 😆 "I have a very particular set of skillsaws"

[@damistere447]

This movie needs credit for one of the most legendary lines in movie history. "I ate the whole plate! The whole plate!"

[@JeffreyDeCristofaro]

I was about to start my senior year in college when this came out... I couldn't resist! I didn't know from this point on it was all going downhill for the next pre-BUMBLEBEE installments!

[@seatspud]

Liam Neeson's head on a Peterbuilt gets an instant like from me! (I am now hearing Neeson recite this line in my head, "Do not grieve, for I shall be one with the Matrix." And now, you will too!)

[@PrimmsHoodCinema]

That Trent DeMarco thing kinda blew my mind lol. Why did they do that?? 😂😂😂

[@ekamsingh-hundal1252]

Primm never thought I'd see you here

[@Kasunoske]

i never understood the "i dont know whos who" or "i can't understand whats going on" argument. as a little kid i could easily name every decepticon

[@DBurnzy]

Same! I loved the action scenes in this movie

[@Turok1134]

Apparently a shitload of people have glaucoma.

[@RustEZZEProductions]

Blackout, Scorponok, Brawl, Bonecrusher, Frenzy, Barricade, Starscream and Megatron. That was all off the top of my head

[@peanutbutter7721]

Cause all the Decepticons look almost exactly the same.

[@Kasunoske]

@@peanutbutter7721 no not at all, given they all have very different transformations: Tank, minesweeper thing, jet, helicopter and police car. the confusion stems form that they called brawl devastator in the film so people think theres an extra decepticon thats looks like brawl.

[@Breidablik06]

I don’t know why but I have a strange love for these movies that I can’t explain I love them all

[@taterater1052]

Its a modern badass film about love and fighting for what is right, and sacrifice, with fucking trucks and planes and explosions lol

[@ChocolateThaiE]

I do too. I love them. Except for 5.... that one was likable. It felt long af though... granted it was a long movie, but it shouldn’t have felt that way

[@12oz-MAN]

Yeah the first three were good. And then knights for some reason?

[@nickmitsialis]

I gotta say at 3:40 when Starscream goes from bot to jet in that smooth fashion, the first thing that ran thru my mind is "MY GOD! They've finally got to tech to make those Veritechs from 'Macross/RoboTech'.

[@SuperObvious]

3:22 "Its so.. with the clinking and the clanking" 13:43 "No no no No NO NO no No No" LOL 😂😅

[@under-._.-score]

Thanks for the “no no no no No no” montage Ben. Also can we get a playlist of the Ben videos on the channel?

[@lukassrensen4788]

I legit like this one, Dark of the Moon and obviously Bumblebee

[@TheJesselopez1981]

Just noticed at 10:40 right above Peter Cullin's credit, Mason the mastiff dog is credited, cause he's a real dog of a bloke. Also Trent Demarco is attached to the back of a tow truck, much in the same way as Bumblebee.

[@bearman9033]

I may be commenting a tad late but I've always loved that one extra who says "this is 100 times cooler than Armageddon, swear to god" I just like how even Bay can laugh at himself

[@chrislondo2683]

I really loved Transformers ‘07. My favorite thing about it was Steve Jablonsky’s score which sounds epic and the base attack at the beginning. Just prior to when it came out I remembered catching episodes of Transformers: Cybertron on Cartoon Network, I even got a few toys of the characters from it. Like that series I got some toys from the movie notably Optimus Prime and Blackout including one Burger King toys. At the time I was just six years old when it came out. After I saw the movie when we’re at my grandma’s for Thanksgiving she gave me the Transformers animated movie from 1986. And think this introduced me to Linkin Park because of the song heard in the movie. It should’ve ended just with the first one.

[@henryelicker2403]

Honestly, besides the storyline, the actual CGI of the Transformers was stunning. Although I was 7, heh, it still knocked the socks off of everyone in the theater. Everthing from the transformations, to LEFT CHEEK, and having watching it several times more as an adult, I still think it's really cool honestly; the best one in the series.
