Gotta love the way Optimus immediately sets a different tone compared to Barricade. He approaches cautiously, kneels without looming over the smaller humans, and the first thing he does after asking Sam’s identity is provide his own. He describes his species and names their home. And while the two humans might be overawed they also now have a vital bit of knowledge that reassures them. Optimis Prime is saying ‘we have names. We have a people. We have a home. Like you do.’

I cannot even begin to imagine how original fans must’ve felt watching those 4 meteors hit the ground watching them gain their vehicle forms, with the last one being a blue and red truck. And then they all group up and the camera focus’s on the truck as one of the greatest hero’s of the 80’s appears. And in a voice you’d recognize anywhere, he introduces himself with “my name is optimus prime”, they brought the original voice actor back holy shit! All set to one of the finest pieces of music ever put in a movie.

Recently, on the 10th of July, 2022, I got to experience this movie in the theater for the first time. I couldn't 15 years ago because I was just an infant, but nothing has filled me with as much joy as those movie speakers did when I heard Optimus Prime's voice boom across the chamber. Timeless film.

[@Play_Streams]

This is the best movie scene of all time. Just brings tears to your eyes, just beautiful

[@Generalphoenix8438]

Just watched this film this morning and this scene is just magnificent. The soundtrack and seeing the autobot in the pool then hiding just shows how peaceful they are towards humans and quite careful. A deceptacon would have crushed them in an instance.

[@binhyennguyenkhoa2923]

One of the most iconic scene in cinema history.

[@DragonstarFighter]

2:30 Optimus Prime Epitomizes Lawful Good, a young human, a species that he has never met before, walks out alone, in the middle of the night to see him, and he keeps an eye on her till her parents come out... tell me he isn’t a paladin...

[@yuno4163]

DragonstarFighter I think this autobot is Ironhide. I think Optimus is the one who crashed near Sam

[@JamMasterJesus]

Trafalgar D. Water Law Look at the body difference. The one who crashed near Sam was bulkier and shorter than the one at the pool. That was Ironhide. The one at the pool was lankier and taller. Not to mention, why give Ironhide that entrance? The music changes specifically for that moment, to something awe-inspiring. That was, without a doubt, Optimus.

[@roisss]

Dapper_Cat no, the jeep or whatever the type of vehicle Ironhide is, is that little girls fathers

[@JamMasterJesus]

Sugar Sweet Unless you can counter my arguments, I'll have to disagree with you.

[@raam726]

Look at the face. It's clearly optimus.

[@amymurphy721]

3:48 i love how Optimus tires sound as they're being pushed back while he's transforming

[@puffpuffpassmako]

I love how each vehicle form and landing reflects each autobots' personalities perfectly. Ratchet lands in a populated area and caused a ton of damage. He hides and makes sure he's not seen and carefully tries to make his way out, so he doesn't hurt anyone. He then sees the first responders and paramedics coming to help. Being a medical officer, he's found his perfect form, and scans the first ambulance he sees Jazz doesn't give a crap. He does flashy moves and and flips in style off the roof. He then turns to the car shop, and scans the flashiest most expensive car he sees. He WANTS to be seen and admired Ironhide has no shame. He allows the little girl to get a good clear look at him and carefully walks away, unconcerned his cover may be blown. Being a hardened veteran, he's dealt with much worse. He then scans the parents' GMC, a truck known for being powerful and masculine Optimus gets straight to business. He walks confidently to the highway and scans the very first car he sees, which coincidentally is a custom painted semi truck, which separates him from his subordinates as his form stands out the most, letting you know that one is the leader

No he was an awful character, nearly all aspects of him were poorly written and caused me to go off the films he is in. Shia himself can be a decent actor (I.e fury) but this portrayal is beyond awful.

[@rattlesnakeslasher]

Me too

[@curaycaleb1250]

i like Cade Yeager more than Sam WitWickey Sam screams like a little girl and Cade screams too but he dosen't scream all the time

[@callan229]

Cade rarely screams and when he does, its understandable. Afterall, having a giant robot transforming on top of you would be causing you to scream and falling off of a building would do that. Sam screamed for no reason half the time. Cade also takes everything in his stride and handles situations effectively while Sam screams 'Optimus!! Bumblebee!! Ironhide!!'

Summer 2009. I remember very reluctantly taking my nine year-old son to watch what I thought was going to be a load of childish crap and ended up leaving the cinema feeling gobsmacked and extremely satisfied with what I still deem to be one of the best action movies of this century. This is my favourite scene, as I love a stonking movie score combined with a director's ability to inspire awe in the audience. It made this, for me at least, the best scene since the one in Jurassic Park when the visitors first see the brachiosaurus...

+Orion Pax (megatroptimus) I like to think of it as "learning where all the parts should go to form what." in the initial transformation. After that they can do it much faster if need be.

[@jackfrost2482]

+Jordan Hewlett the last time I heard this I was emotional 😢

[@BlueBird14095]

I like to imagine it in a similar way to standing up. Sure, you could do it quickly if need be. But it would expend more energy. Having their entire bodies fold up and shift faster will surely do the same for them. But when you don't need to expend more energy, why bother? And the slow transformation looks dope as fuck.

[@Funny_Chair_Man]

Orion Pax it was made to dramatic not a normal transformation

Orion Pax they transform faster depending on what kind of scene it is. Like when Starscream flew down and transformed to fight Ironhide and Ratchet, his transformation only took like half a second
