Especially if I worked in a functionalist slave society, where my only chance of potentially not being a slave was my subordinates not screwing up.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I'm not talking about her being mad at them for that, I'm talking about how they bent a lot of the movie over backwards to achieve her being mad there, when there were other ways to have that happen.

[@MrFedoraFilm]

I got a chance to see an early screening of TFONE, a week before the movie was released. My sister got two passes for it and gave to me as she couldn't make it. So I took my brother to see it. He didn't know much of Transformers, so I told him that this movie is the untold story that will explain everything. After watching the movie with him, we both enjoyed it. We got the movie poster for coming to the early screening. I saw it twice on my own, and I enjoyed it as much as the first time. TFONE is an awesome movie. -Also RIP to your cat Bowser. He seemed like a cool cat to play a boardgame with.

[@_L___]

It’s shocks me that it’s been almost 4 decades since Hasbro decided to make an animated transformers movie but I hope they realize that animated transformers allow them to make better movies than the live action ones

[@jaydonmagan4694]

I hope so too. But I think the box office numbers are going to need to get better soon to convince Hasbro on that front. Given how much Mutant Mayhem was able to make before having a sequel greenlit for it, it probably shouldn’t take too much for the same to be done with a sequel for Transformers One; at least for the Paramount side of things. But I think it’s gonna take a larger box office return to convince Hasbro and Paramount about the viability of future animated Transformers films outside of TF:One’s planned trilogy. Though next time they should really release a better first trailer in order to convince more people.

[@CyberKnightMiky]

May Bowser rest in peace, and be angy in the afterlife

[@TheGreatSoundwave]

I think they should stop using the “cycles” thing altogether If they can’t be bothered to remember what is what then just stick to saying “minutes, days, months, years”

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It could just be translated and we wouldn't loose much.

[@everest5718]

I loved this movie a lot - solid 8/10 for me. While I understand your criticisms, they just didn’t bother or even occur to me while watching so I had a pretty good time. Also, this movie is so so pretty - they really brought Cybertron to life here, especially Iacon with the sci fi roads and its alien architecture. In the credits there was a small army of people in charge of just the lighting for this film, and I think they did a fantastic job. The way everything shines or reflects is just… beauitful 😌

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Which is perfectly fine, nothing wrong with not noticing some issues, I'm sure some shot past me too, even though I was more cognizant of them in general. And even if you recognize them now you don't have to like the movie less for them. The roads that build them selves as you are traveling on them to get where you need to go were so cool.

[@15oClock]

At this time in the industry, you can’t count on having a sequel. Shows are getting cancelled because the streaming services they were on were invested with expectations to replicate or exceed the numbers from the pandemic, and not everyone’s convinced to return to the movie theater. Things are incredibly uncertain, and it’s best to just make one film with the expectation that this is your one shot, even if you have to cram another movie into it in the process.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I think it would still have been more Satisfying, to see that character arc reach a point where you can see where it's going to go eventually, than just rush to the end.

[@vonclaren1]

Great review PerspectiveEnd!!! I actually didn't find the Badassatron joke that funny, so I was glad when Bumblebee stopped reciting it. I was hoping a certain someone would tell him, "your nothing but a bumbler B-127. You're a B-bumbler, a Bumblebee," similar to how he got his name in Transformers Animated. lol :D Keep on being amazing.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

That could have been funny, though I do know they tacitly want this to be in Continuity with the bay films, so that would tread dangerously close to making the Bumblebee Movie non cannon to this one.

[@J_Rad48]

I mean it's already not cannon to the bay films since SPOILER Megatron wanted 2 of Sentinal

For whatever reason, I find the last time he says 'Badassatron' to be hilarious. No clue why.

Oh yeah, I was also pretty confused by the “cycles” thing too. Though I assumed it meant “years”, which was still confusing with how long they live. They probably meant 50,000 years or 50 million years even, but it’s frustrating that they didn’t use either actual time measurements or a more accurate transformers lore term like Vorns (cybertronian year) or even one without meaning Trimara.

The best guess I have is that it's Galactic Cycles, so those are 223 Million years long.

We're probably never getting a sequel. Paramount is in flames. The contract Hasbro has with paramount ends in 2028. And ONE, unfortunately, is flopping hard. It's made almost nothing. And the dvd goes for sale in October, right around the time the movie hits theaters in most countries. It's not looking too good. Chances are, we'll get more Bayverse (DOTM and AOE, because if I'm not mistaken, those 2 grossed the most in box office) slop till the day we die.

I saw it myself and loved it. Personally it's an 8.5/10 for me on first viewing though I do think the audience score is too high, my score could change later on. I went in with reasonable expectations so I was pleased. I love how it gave us a fresh origin too. There are some things I'd change, but not enough to make me dislike it. I didn't really feel the same towards the action animation. The movie could have been half an hour longer to fix the action stuff. I felt like the arcs worked perfectly fine. I'm surprised THAT scene with Megatron and Orion towards the end surprised me. I thought he'd throw him aside and leave him for dead, not just drop him.

[@SirRoxy]

despite this being one of my favorite movies of all time right now thats probably just recency bias but i understand all of the things you meant, i feel like how the 86 movie couldve used another 40 minutes this couldve as well, the one scene near the end of the movie which if youve seen it youd know the one im talking about was absolutely shocking, in the cinema i was genuinely stunned and the sequence after that had a real can you hear the music vibe to it. during the whole movie i really had a revenge of the sith feeling to it except as i havent watched the clone wars this felt waaaaaaay more coherent and set out the motivations far better. i was genuinely expecting to hear thors voice the entire time i was watching the movie but i only felt that way once and at the end it felt like Peter Cullen himself had taken over because it was just perfect. the action hit so hard and all the characters were cool thought i feel like one of them was a lot less logical that before and felt like a different character, i wish that they had just fleshed out it a lot more with another hour or 40 minutes as some characters didnt feel like they perfectly completed their arcs but im sure that will be rectified in a sequel. overall i like this way more than bumblebee and hope its gets a sequel. P.S screw you Hasbro, the only place i can get mainlines apart from specialty stores in Australia is bloody Myer meaning that the mainlines cost more than the studio series ones.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah that scene while well handled and powerful, isn't fully supported by the movie that came before it, and as a result it's kind of extremely abrupt.

My cat passed away 2 years ago. So I know how that feels. As for the movie, I hate that so many worthy Autobots have to take a back seat as OP's #2 simply because "Bee" has a cute name...

Definetly agree with the sentiment that this is a really good movie (7.5 or 8/10 for me), where small things here and there that could've been easily tweaked result in the movie being taken down from the 9/10 (or even higher) potential it had. Also - I wouldn't say the Rotten Tomatoes score is overblown, since the Tomatometer doesn't indicate a score out of 10 - Just whether they recommend it.

The Aligned continuity proposed the concept of “living metal” in which through utilization of their T-cog are able to squash and stretch certain parts of their metal, such as their faces and their parts during transformation that allow them to change size.

Cliff Face?

[@matthewodonnellgavaghan]

RIP Bowser 😢 I'm really looking forward to seeing this movie. It hasn't come out in France yet, but I'll need to see an English audio version instead of a French dub. That would be dissapointing :/ Now that we have your thoughts on the new movie, maybe you can also review the new skybound comic. I'd love to see your thoughts on it. I think it's one of the best instalments in years. I'd also love to see your response to seeing the Combaticons getting totally disrespectfed 😂😩

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Thank you. I do think you'd be missing out on Brian Tyree Henry's Megatron for sure if you didn't watch it in English. Also after years of knowing you, I only learned just now that you are French. I've been planning on reviewing that for so long, I need to hurry up and get to it. But not next week, for you know what next week is.

[@matthewodonnellgavaghan]

@@PerspectiveEnd He's that good? I gotta see this. Oh, I'm not French, I'm Irish. I'm studying in France. The movie isn't out yet over here. I think it comes out the 11th of October in the UK. But I don't like the idea of going all the way to another country just to watch a movie in the original language. Can't wait for your thoughts on it. I felt that the second ark escualted and concluded really quickly. But on my second read of it, I liked it far more because I realised that all the characters felt like people with their own drives and motivations. Like seeing Optimus and Elita have a genuine conversation over the ethics of using Shockwave's energon made me forgive the other shortcomings

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Ahh, that makes sense. And I do think his performance is excellent. And yes the Second arc is WAY too fast. Or wait are you talking about the comics? You need to warn a guy that you are transitioning topics my friend.

I went to watch Transformers One on IMAX last week and I absolutely loved it. ILM has been on a ROLL this year. First Ultraman Rising, now this. RIP Bowser the cat

[@bigweldindustries506]

Yea, I can't wait to see it again. Such a beautiful looking movie.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

It does have quite the look.

[@giovonniiclayton]

What do you think of the shadow generations game coming out soon

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Shadow Generations Game?

[@giovonniiclayton]

@@PerspectiveEnd yeah sega got multiple trailers out for sonicxshadow generations the game looks pretty good I have no idea how good will the story be tho since it’s a sonic game

[@SapphicZeta]

The film was fantastic it just had a plot that was running way too fast since they wanted to fit it into the run time. I can definitely agree that the shift in character was far to fast and definitely threw me off first time watching it along with that the confusing plot holes like the fact only one city is mentioned across the whole movie or the weird timeline not making it clear how long ago the Primes existed, either way the film was definitely the best we've had in the franchise and definitely an enjoyable 8/10 👍

[@PerspectiveEnd]

What's amazing is that Megatrons character shift begins 52 minutes into the movie. Over half of it is over by the time any character starts experiencing growth.

[@T-ZillaYT]

RIP Bowser, your cute little angry face will be missed.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Thank you very much.

[@imagine040]

sentinel was objectively peak imo

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I thought he was a fine villain.

[@Gaia_Gaistar]

They're use of cycles for a term of time measurement is probably based on Beast Wars doing it. I remember there used to be a chart that showed what the different terms for time were back in the 00's when nerds treated all sci-fi and fantasy with the same nerdiness of Star Wars before Disney bought it.

[@animeking1357]

Rip Bowser. A few years ago we had to put our cat down. He was 18 years old. I grew up with him. Next to the 86 movie I think this is the best Transformers movie ever.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I don't know if it counts that I grew up with him, but I was like 14 when we caught Bowser in a tree on our property. And yeah this is up there next to the 86 movie.

[@jurassicwreck7146]

Yay, spoiler review might be another perspective rewrites in some points. Miss those ones

It will be something like that yes.

That first fight between Optimus prime and megatron is pure eye candy

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

Turned 23 last Friday and got United Animated Optimus and the Barrage/Chop Shop/silver hammer dude three-pack. Animated Optimus is my figure of the year; Barrage and Chop Shop put in the work to somewhat redeem the Evolution beetle molds.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Hey! Happy Birthday! Glad you got a bunch of stuff you really liked, that Optimus really won me over.

[@lucarionuva9543]

I think the point about cycles is a microcosms of the whole movie in that There are things in the movie that are changed for no reason other than saying this is different and you cant compare it to the rest of the franchise then turn around and have things happen that makes no sense in a vacuum Maybe i need to watch the movie again because I feel like im being gaslit by the whole Internet in to thinking the it's good when all i see is flaws?
