You can have a character who is cunning and sly without making his coward trait 1000%.

At least I’m not alone. The first three Transformers films are way better then most big budget franchise films we get today. Dumb mindless fun, but has a lot of care put in the action and the effects look great. Can’t say that about some films today.

If the bayverse films are just dumb mindless fun then how are they better than the films that try to be more than dumb fun?. That doesn't necessarily make them better in terms of quality or proper storytelling. Entertaining sure but nothing of substance in terms of consistent lore or storytelling. Even tf prime which was literally inspired by the movies had better storytelling in comparison

It doesn't matter how many times I've seen the movie, the scene with Optimus and the other Autobots arriving on Earth will always give me the good kind of chills. Between the CGI on the Autobots and Decepticons, the musical score and the incredible cinematography, it always catches my interest. I've been saying that I periodically feel like a fake fan, because it took me until the 2007 movie to hear Peter Cullen speak as Optimus Prime to really bask in the glory of the character of the Autobots' Supreme Commander. My obsession with giant sentient alien robots started in 2001 with the anime style Robots In Disguise series starring Neil Kaplan as the voice of Optimus Prime.

Cool thing I like to point out whenever anyone complains about the logistics of the final battle. They say, "Why would the military decide to hide The Allspark IN THE MIDDLE OF A DENSELY POPULATED CITY of all places? The fight is only taking place here for the sake of maximum destruction and Bayhem." But in actuality, the army knew The Hoover Dam was being used to mask The Cube's signal from the Decepticons. So it would follow that office buildings and skyscrapers would have a similar effect.

ALSO. On the topic of Prime and Megatron's battle being a total lopsided squash match. I'm completely and thoroughly confident that Optimus was holding back the whole fight. And it's hilarious because the one move he actually connects with, he winds up swiping Megatron's leg off. When they drop Megs into the sea at the end, he's missing his leg. The jets didn't do that. Optimus did that with _just his arm._ No sword necessary. It seems like all Prime was willing to do in this situation was the bare minimum, to just kinda get in Megatron's way and let him throw him around a little as a distraction so Sam could get The Allspark to the soldiers. He wasn't willing to duke it out with Megatron and get bloody because at that point he still regarded Megatron as his brother. Obviously that changes later on.

I will acknowledge my bias, but disregarding 2 and 3, Transformers (2007) is actually an amazing Sci Fi film, period. The sound design and CGI was and still is groundbreaking especially for that time. Admittedly, lots of the humour falls flat now, but that is a product of the times, much like how most of the seth rogan films dont hold up like they used to. All this and in comparison to a lot of big budget movies today, some ingenuity and effort was put into this film, and the love and care shows. But dodgy humour aside, this first film has incredible pacing, a cohesive story line that marries multiple plot threads together, amazing CG, a killer sountrack and sound design and it is hard to argue that the film isnt iconic. Overall, I genuinely consider Transformers (2007) comparable to Avatar in regards to how well it contributes to cinema and the SCI FI genre. Only thing that holds it back IMO is some of the humour.

I have many laughs throughout this movie, sad moments, and just everything, I grew up watching this movie, im 20 now and I can’t help but saying the lines every time I watch the movies, It drives my mates insane when I always say the lines, they unfortunately don’t understand the movie and all the lines like I do but they still like it. As a young teenager I always sorta found a way to relate to sam, being awkward and funny, and goofy and other things. But yes Transformers 2007 will always be a favourite of mine, one day I will show This classic movie to my kids and show them my childhood and hopefully they will love it as Much as I did.

One of the coolest bits about the arrival of the Autobots and how they transform for the first time has a two pronged reason as to why they drew it out. Number one was an out of universe reason for the special effects team to *really* show off just how much time and effort they had placed in the Transformers, especially when they're up close and personal, being able to see virtually every detail of the vehicle become the Transformer. and the second is an actual in universe explanation being that this is the first time the Autobots are transforming to their new forms so they need to let their bodies adjust to the proportions and new add ons of the vehicle they have chosen to transform as. And the end result is, to this day, one of the absolute best cinematic moments in history.

Damn right it's still good. Watched it again with a friend of mine a couple weeks ago. Great action, great CGI, cool vehicles, cool relationships with the soldiers, nice humor, and just cool all around. First time I saw it, I was.... 9, I think? Maybe 10? Now I'm 25 and still love it. That started my infatuation with TF content. Who doesn't like giant fighting alien robots? I like ROTF for the action and humor (aside from the two cursed humping scenes), and DOTM is now my FAVORITE OF ALL TIME since I saw it earlier this week with my friend too. It was just fucking awesome. I dont even bat an eyelash at the genocide in Chicago because the Autobots still save the day 💀 AOE was OK. It's great for clips and edits. I watch TLK again with my friend tomorrow. Eek. I already know that I'm still going to think it's ONLY good for clips and edits because that movie is a bit of a mess 😂 My friend and i can pause the movie and talk about plot inconsistencies, or things that were clearly forced to happen in each movie, and yet, the trilogy was still very enjoyable.

I grew up with this movie. I kinda hate the rest of the Bayverse because this film did such a good job at doing "realistic" transformers correctly. The later films feel like they loose focus of the transformers, and when they are there, they usually are surrounded by so much violence that I really can't enjoy what's going on. But this film did a really good job at balancing everything out, and without us having this really strong first foot in the door, I doubt Hasbro would be willing to put in the effort to reboot the series with Rotb and Bumblebee.

Idk man i definitely disagree about the take on the Cybertron movie. The Transformers (Autobots and Decepticons) are such interesting characters with tons of in depth history that ppl love, it could totally work. I mean ppl are fans of things like Star Wars that are all aliens, and animated movies with non human characters so i dont see a problem with doing the same but for Transformers, if they can do what TFP did, and WFC/FOC did and make us vonnect and care about the Autobots and Decepticons then it'll be a great movie, we know it's possible cause connecting with fictional/nonhuman characters is already such a common and accepted thing that movies can accomplish. And with complex characters like the ones we have in Transformers I'm honestly not as skeptical as you and maybe some others

My favorite aspect of the movie is how the Decepticons systematically work towards their goal of reviving Megatron and getting the all-spark. Blackout accessing the military database while using Scorponok to wipe out the witnesses, Frenzy on air-force-one and in the dam, Barricade tracking down Sam and the glasses, the communications blackout, Starscream being the goalie in the sky. It all works to make the decepticons seem utterly unstoppable. A plan like that in real life would have any country or even the world on its knees. How would you even fight something like that without the autobots?

The voice acting, the story, the speech, all of it. It made my childhood and are always such comfort to me. The laughter, they anger, the tears, the love, that was brought to me from this film series and this fandom in general. I cry with and for these characters each time I watch it. I cheer for them when they fight. Laugh at their jokes. The autobot team, this show in general is a home for me. I’m so emotionally attached to it. Do I love the 4th and 5th film? No? Do I like 4 more than 5? Yes. I love the bots introduced. I feel like that the movies could have been done so much better though. Especially the last knight.

Actually, Ironhide and Ratchet were running because they were defending Sam, and most importantly, expecting an attack. I think it's a pretty well established fact that Cybertronians in the Bayverse are stronger in their robot forms vs their vehicle forms (typically) and they are ESPECIALLY vulnerable while Transforming (as Dropkick's demise proves, and he shouldn't be considered Bayverse but I digress). It shouldn't be surprising that smaller Transformers typically change quicker than bigger ones, which would also explain why Mudflap, Skids, and that Constructicon dump truck were parked next to eachother, the three knew who the other was, and were at a stalemate, the Constructicon probably believed that fight that would result from him Transforming to attack would be mutually assured destruction (even though for all intents and purposes, he likely believes those two Autobots are seasoned Warriors like Sideswipe, and not a couple of kids, add to that fact that he knows he's no Brawl, and he couldn't risk being incapacitated, which would take Devastator out of play). Also, some what ifs: What if Frenzy was smashed by Sam instead of being kicked? What if the The Cube was actually salvageable, and Optimus lied about it being destroyed to trick the Decepticons? What if the scene in Africa was Optimus showing the Star Harvester to Sentinel, and the two hatching a plan to open portals to other stars in order to get the Energon they need, thereby completely eliminating the necessity of Sentinel's "betrayal" and him claiming it's all just a ruse!

Corse a movie that focuses less on the Transformers, is like what could happen in a movie for Power Rangers, TMNT, Justice League, & the Avengers. Like a couple of non Super Heroes are caught in a War between the forces of good and evil. Because they are the key to helping the Heroes to beat the Bad Guys & saved the world.

1 and 3 are definitely the best in my opinion, and I hate 5 with a burning passion. BUT I will say that 4 is also a solid story and a realistic aftermath of the events of 3. Having Optimus have to come to terms with the fact that not all humans are worth protecting, and some of them will actively betray and hunt them down despite everything the Autobots had done for them is a very cool direction to take the character, and completely fits the more gritty and realistic setting of the Bayverse in contrast to the usually more lightearted and optimistic cartoons. Not all people like it and that's fine, but Bayverse was a different take on the Transformers from the get-go, and I would've been disappointed if the Autobots never had to confront the darker side of humanity.

I don’t think they retconned bumblebee speaking in the next film, I think they retconned it in 2017 with the “I haven’t heard it since cybertron fell” line, because in ROTF we hear that he’s “having voice problems” which means it’s probably something new (despite what the tie in comics say)

Just finished your series breaking down the films and an overall great commentary. This is overall probably my favorite franchise in terms of action and spectacle to date and I'm glad to see the next generation giving it the appreciation ot deserves especially in the consistent stream of mediocrity franchises like marvel and star wars are increasingly pumping out these days. This was the film that started it all for me and was the film that made me realize cinema is truly an art constrained only by imagination. I think your comparison to jurassic park is very astute as it checked a lot of the same boxes as transformers for the 90's. I will argue though that the the transformers films are a more profound series thematically than jurassic park though. Also not to shill but you should check out transformers rise of unicron. It's in production on KZbin as a 2 part fan finale for the bayverse that will be here on KZbin made by very passionate fans and I'd love to see once it's out what you think. Keep up the great work! You earned my subscription 👏👍

I wanna point out the tactics the autobots used to beat Brawl, because it's actually more subtle than you think. Jazz goes in first to disable as many weapons as he can. After he gets thrown over, Ironhide acts as the decoy. As the most powerful of the autobots besides Prime (presumably), Brawl concentrates all his fire on Ironhide. This allows Ratchet and Jazz to close in without taking fire, and they team up with the humans to take down Brawl Btw, can we appreciate Megatron's durability? Blackout died to three F22 missiles. Megatron took ten of those suckers and still kept going. My only wish is that Ironhide and Ratchet shot at Megatron too. Prime could have also got the chest shot instead of Lennox

The reason i like the first one the most is because it was simple. Yes it had a bunch of explosions, just signature bay stuff, but it wasnt over the top in plot and action, it was simple. The sequels, however... (i still like dark of the moon, but its also pretty weird in plot)

I wish they didn't off Jazz so early in the franchise. He had so much character and I actually liked how he consistently is concerned about bumblebee even if some of that isn't shown front-and-center. They could have had Jazz die protecting Bee so that he had much more of an impact on the characters or maybe they could have had him survive the movie and expand the relationships between the Autobots and then have him sacrifice himself for even more emotional weight. Overall, Jazz is awesome and I wish we got more of him.

34:28 the reason they don't do that is because there are 5 decepticons in the city and 3 auto bots, and when an autobot is in vehicle mode they are vulnerable

Should've used a Ford explorer and depicted a bunch of sedans parking but scraping the bottom of the car on those concrete parking blocks then show a family watching this happen repeatedly in a parking lot right before they hit the parking block themselves but are not worried about it because they have the ground clearance.

I just wanted to say that Quintessa isn’t their god and was only pretending to fool Optimus. I’m surprised he forgot about the Cube. Also, Devastator (except his enemy scrotum) was the best thing to appear in the trilogy. The Driller is a show off.

Yeah, the reason he was brought back in for AOE was if Paramount would find for Pain & Gain. And as for TLK, he came back in because of the first teaser for it catching his appeal because of the message it was telling.
