That's not surprising - as the guys mentioned, all Michael Bay movie leads are losers and Bay hates them all.

The best thing he ever made is Pain and Gain because that's the one time where it makes sense to hate the main characters.)

Somewhat related, but what happened to the Shrek Forever After picture show? It’s not visible on his channel and I haven’t seen any post from Marcus acknowledging its disappearance.
I think it’s hilarious how transformers were supposed to be this well kept big secret. Like as far as the world was concerned. The Fallen announcing himself on TV was their big reveal. Yet, transformers were just out fighting in the revolutionary war, and the war of the coalition, and alongside King Arthur. Like, they were posing for pictures. Artists made paintings of them. How did a soldier not go home in the 1700s and go “The war was brutal Mary. By the way, France has a giant metal demon fighting for them”
I choose to believe that in this world, humans are so _utterly incapable_ of doing or learning anything without a transformer holding their hand, that it takes transformers to have caused every notable thing in human history but we just lack any basic skills of our own to record it without getting told to. Something like The World's End
The Last Knight Cemented in my memory and my uncle's that the transformers movies as a whole are the movies you watch to grow back pain, because of how long and tiring that shit was, I actually remember getting tired in the theater the first time I watched, like actual physical lack of strength, I was like 12 or 14 when I watched it
Anthony Hopkins randomly screaming at the 21:57 is the funniest thing I've seen in my entire life. I feel so related with Marcus just saying 'I don't know' while craying out of laugh
I'm pretty sure the joke was that he was shouting to cover up the sound of him ripping the page out. But like, it's a library lmfao any noise is gonna draw attention. This movie is amazing loool
Funniest thing to me is he does the fake cough at the same time he turns around, so it looks like something jumpscared him so hard he accidentally tore a page off 😂
That you would compare the two leaves me honestly sickened, I love TROS and absolutely loathe Transformers 5 And if you think they are on the same level then you are absolutely brainwashed and just fucking stupid, TROS is better than it on every single possible level. Even the overly bluish lighting in TROS is better than the miserable steely look TLK has.
10:39 These 2 mfers did not just glossed over the fact a normal, midle aged man, THROWING THE SEVERED HEAD OF A GIANT METAL ROBOT LIKE IT WAS MADE OUT OF FOAM. It THUDS when it hits the ground, he just pushes it like its NOTHING
In my version of Age of Extinction. After the Battle of Hong Kong. Optimus travels to the Moon, to get the Ark back online with the Matrix. Plot Twist. Just like Animated, the ship is Omega Supreme. He helps Optimus to travel to far reaches of Space, to find his Creators. Wish that actually happened instead of letting Optimus flying in Space.
I think they mentioned it in the tie-in comics that he saved some alien on his way and that's why his energon dried up because of the extra energy consumption. They could have taken ONE SECOND to mention this in the movie so that optimus wouldn't have looked like an idiot but they didn't.
The thing about them being "canonically" called Transformers in this film and the one before this that makes it infinitely stupider is that they have for THE LONGEST TIME been known in other media and in the fandom as "Cybertronians". It's literally a devolution of already established lore.
I don't think anyone talks enough about the aspect ratio switching from IMAX, to fullscreen, to widescreen every other shot nearly enough. It's like they're trying to give me a stroke. I still remember getting fucking whiplash from this in the theater. I have no idea how this movie got off the cutting room floor. Genuinely unwatchable
"The military are stupid enough to trust Megatron, the guy that did blow up chicago twice" Marcus always finds the funniest possible way to describe plots, I swear
So in the FIRST MOVIE OF THIS FRANCHISE we saw all of the Transformers come to Earth. It was pretty obviously their first time here. These movies are retconning their OWN ESTABLISHED UNIVERSE. I love watching you guys pick them apart, I will watch your videos over and over.
I seen a lot of convulted stories, but Bayformers are in the top spot for sure. We go to unknown planet called Earth...oh wait, out guys were there before. Oh and a decepticon who chilled in museum. Also Megatron : a pity i could not fly to the moon and find this army and continue my deal with Sentinel. Also also Megatron in TLK : i got some unknown before guys, there were just locked. And dont even ask me how and why i changed my look. I guess he did not like name Galvatron.
That's one of the things out of the millions that I disliked from the Bayverse. They practically retconned ALL of the previously established lore to make way for a new cinematic universe (one that will never see the light of day because The Last Knight failed).
@@Endru85x I didn't really know the movies but I saw a video where the guy basically presented Optimus as the bad guy and it makes a lot more sense lol
IIRC Autobots are the royalists really and the Decepticons are dirty Commies or something like that. The base lore behind Transformers and war for Cybertron, the old school one, is insane
We finally made it to the end of the Bayformers :’) Fun fact with the aspect ratio, they used IMAX and regular cameras just because they WANTED TO so it just kept switching cause Bay felt like it!
Bruh like it's kinda annoying when Christopher Nolan does this but at least his movies only change aspect ratios depending on the scene... and not EVERY FUCKING SHOT
32:20 This scene always stuck in my head when I’m watching this movie. A rare and oddly genuine interaction between those two that could go somewhere, but get wasted in this movie
Funny thing about that general guy at 7:29 is that he died in the first movie, but came back as a completely different character in the next film but with a different name this time around.
@@rhysofsneezingdragon1758Indiana Jones is the other one. In The Dial of Destiny it was revealed that Mutt Williams died in the Vietnam War before the start of the movie.
The funniest thing about this movie is that it was clearly meant to set up more shit (They were genuinely planning on doing a show about the secret history of Transformers on Earth), but within a week or two of its theatrical debut the marketing switched up to imply that this was the last one
Honestly, his music is too good for these movies. Like the music is so cool and inspires so much emotion, but the movie does nothing to actually match the emotion implied by the music. So in that way, the soundtrack is great as music, but not so much as a score. Like the music will be grand and emotional. But then the stuff on screen does nothing to reflect that, so it ends up feeling like the music is trying to compensate rather than elevate. This is what i like about rise of the beasts' music. While the compositions aren't as impressive as Jablonsky's per se, they're a lot more apropriate for the emotion the film intends for us to feel.
This is genuinely one of Marcus & Dan's best reactions to *date.* Everything from the inconsistent aspect ratios, to the lore-shattering Transformers history run, and *hehe* Anthony Hopkins' death had us all wheezing with laughter. XD
I doubt it, transformers movies at least get really funny when you think about how stupid everything is, but that doesnt happen with sequel star wars movies
@@CrowTRobot I felt the same about Rise as I thought it would build on what came before with TLJ but it didn't. Say what you want about TLJ but it had a lot of good stuff in it baked around the dumber stuff.
The reason Anthony Hopkins yelled in the library was to cover up the sound of him tearing out that page in the book for himself. But if you miss that I can see how watching that would break anyone and it broke me thinking about it out of context 😂😂😂
I'm a hard-core Transformers fan. Been collecting the figures and following the media since I was 10 back in 2004. That said, I despise these films. It's been a delight rewatching these films and mocking them with you
You despise all of them ? because for me I grew up with the movies I enjoyed 1-4 but 5 not so much but after rewatching the films recently I only like 1 and 3 I think the films could have went in a better direction if they just got new writers and a director to work on the films after 3
@@giovonniiclayton 1 is the one I'm closest to liking, and parts of 3 and 4 are entertaining. The film series overall is embarrassing for me to look back on. The racist/crass humor hasn't aged well and the action (while spectacular) is messy and cluttered. All films in the series have bits of that. What makes me despise the films is the stigma around them. When I meet someone irl and they learn I like Transformers, the movies always come up. When I say I'm a diehard Transformers fan, I'm saying I like multiple series about cool robots with goofy names having a political conflict with equal parts cosmic horror themes or looney tune esqe humor or genuinely touching character moments. But in general, the public just associates Transformers with low-brow humor, hard to follow action, and shoddy filmmaking. I like some of the edgy film designs and the music by Steve Jablonsky always slaps, but the rest just makes me cringe.
@@606Xentrax606honestly, I 100% agree. I grew up watching the movies as a kid, and I will admit they do have nice action sequences, music, etc., but there’s so much against them that I just don’t really care for the Bayverse as a whole. Hell, I infinitely prefer the reboot timeline with BB and ROTB, like at least they got rid of most of what made the Bayverse intolerable
Transformers 1 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!" Transformers 2 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!" Transformers 3 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!" Transformers 4 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!" Transformers 5 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!! Also the planet itself is a transformer!!!"
Also those movies... hey we killed Megatron twice, Lockdown is dead tooo. hey you wanna another Megatron comeback, he will have a new skin and bunch of losers who were just locked up!
As Mr Sunday movies said it best This movie's writers had a script on viking dark ages lying around and just added transformers to them. Then submitted it to Michael Bay who had somehow already begun with the photography on the movie.
I honestly can’t believe this fever dream was allowed to be produced, shot, directed, acted in, and released to theaters and beyond. I am so glad this is The End of Bayvangelion.
My favorite part about Optimus freezing in space is that: relative to what you would expect the distance of cybertron to be (Outside our solar system at the very least) he gets to what looks like Jupiter. Which is probably the equivalent of your car breaking down like 2 miles from where you left.
My boyfriend and I watched this movie for the first time last year. I was dying of laughter while he was just dying. Also, I've never seen such a bombastic final act and been so bored.
Funny thing is this wasn't a Transformers movie. It waa originally a movie about an archeologist discovering they were a descendant of Merlinand dealing with the difference between their studies and fantasy being real
This movie is so insane that @ 26:00 when they go “it is found” in a weird voice for a fat second I thought it was actually just dialogue from the movie
The energy of Marcus just trying to melt into a puddleof goo, and Dan's opening monolog to this video really cements this series as being one of the best in my heart.
I’ve heard that the Bumblebee movie was originally supposed to be about Bumblebee fighting the Nazis in WW2 but after the Last Knight bombed Bumblebee was reworked into the fun coming of age film we got and also left room to be a jumping off point for a possible reboot, which makes sense considering how much the new movies don’t make sense as canon to the bayverse.
are they even meant to be canon to the michael bay ones at all? like even if it’s not outright confirmed or clarified they seem completely standalone and a reboot right (as someone who has a very casual awarenes of these movies)
@@demon-goat Yeah I had that question as well and it bothered me. I had to ask some friends who were more knowledgeable. But indeed they are not canon despite what some publications might say. From what I’ve gathered Bumblebee was originally suppose to be canon to the bayverse but as time went on it went in its own direction. At this point with how much Bumblebee and Rise of the Beasts has deviated from the bay canon I don’t think it can be considered the same universe (unless of course they do some major retcons). I mean all the autobots look completely different and more closely resemble the original Gen 1 designs
@@Crash_2099 first movie has its problems, but yes, I like(d) it too. You held out longer than I did, I was burnt out on Bayformers by the third movie (or maybe that's when I went from denial into anger) so I salute _you_ for that.
22:20 as someone who lives in London I find it so funny to this day when they cut from a shot clearly done near the Bank of England to a road in the USA (I think it is Chicago) as our roads are too narrow to do a side by side of two cars... It's nearly as funny as The Flash using lots of London roads, a Uni building near mine and even a darts place I went to on a date as the pub when they see Zod's broadcast as all in the USA
I've rewatched the older parts of this series multiple times and have been waiting patiently for this one. I've just now been notified of it after 3 days. Fucking TH-cam, man.
The sheer level of how entirely fucking obliterated our planet would be is so funny that it gets brushed over. Like we have a planet attached to ours? Gravity, fucked, atmosphere likely getting pulled out into space, tides. Humanity is gone in like a decade tops.
I love that in actual G1 Transformers there is an episode where they go back in time and team up with Merlin. Its lowkey awesome cause hes just a wizard, like hes shooting decepticons with lightning n shit.

@@phoenixyoutube2706 they still have Bumblebee (2018) and Rise Of The Beasts (2023) to do so we at least got two more
@@shadowspideynot to mention their planning to make more transformers movies so the series ain’t ending :)
Hearing you scream “Sam Witwicky!” In such a panicked voice absolutely sent me
Ok...
@@Marvelfanatic3658 ok
Steve Jablonsky really had no right to go as hard as he did for the Transformers movies but he DID and I'm so glad for it.
Agreed. The music is really good considering the rest of it.
Legit the best thing in these movies is the score, it goes so hard
Honestly, his music is too good for these movies. Like the music is so cool and inspires so much emotion, but the movie does nothing to actually match the emotion implied by the music.
So in that way, the soundtrack is great as music, but not so much as a score. Like the music will be grand and emotional. But then the stuff on screen does nothing to reflect that, so it ends up feeling like the music is trying to compensate rather than elevate.
This is what i like about rise of the beasts' music. While the compositions aren't as impressive as Jablonsky's per se, they're a lot more apropriate for the emotion the film intends for us to feel.
Hi Mary lol
I hope he got paid enough for his work on these films to afford physical therapy, because his back must hurt from carrying this entire franchise
Marcus breaking at 28:15 is truly amazing
the craziest part is that it’s not just two aspect ratios. it’s like 5 different ones.
I just want y'all to know this saga of movie commentary videos is one of the best things on TH-cam.
26:44 the comedic timing of those jets is outstanding
28:32?
This is genuinely one of Marcus & Dan's best reactions to *date.* Everything from the inconsistent aspect ratios, to the lore-shattering Transformers history run, and *hehe* Anthony Hopkins' death had us all wheezing with laughter. XD
😐
It’s getting to the point where Marcus might like the Rise of Skywalker more than all of the Transformers movies combined
😂😂😂💀💀💀
No, this has more delicious garbage than that movie
Nah Rise hurt him on a deep level because he had hope and expectations. He never had high expectations for Transformers.
I doubt it, transformers movies at least get really funny when you think about how stupid everything is, but that doesnt happen with sequel star wars movies
@@CrowTRobot I felt the same about Rise as I thought it would build on what came before with TLJ but it didn't. Say what you want about TLJ but it had a lot of good stuff in it baked around the dumber stuff.
18:48 That's genuine excitement when he saw Sam's picture 🤣🤣😭😭
Gonna watch this on loop before it gets taken down
The reason Anthony Hopkins yelled in the library was to cover up the sound of him tearing out that page in the book for himself.
But if you miss that I can see how watching that would break anyone and it broke me thinking about it out of context 😂😂😂
"That was the watch that killed hitler." WHAT. WHAT IS HAPPENING.
That guttural scream from Marcus when Anthony Hopkins dies was the most horrified scream I’ve ever heard lmao
Ok...
The aspect ratio change is like the citizen Kane parrot. It just shocks you back into the movie.
Bumblebee and Rise Of The Beasts are such a refresher after having to witness the majority of Bayformers post the first two.
What the third one was peak, the most recent two have been mid
@@zacharymessner6157 Cope
@@zacharymessner6157 yeah, I like the 3rd one too.

I'm a hard-core Transformers fan. Been collecting the figures and following the media since I was 10 back in 2004.
That said, I despise these films. It's been a delight rewatching these films and mocking them with you
You despise all of them ? because for me I grew up with the movies I enjoyed 1-4 but 5 not so much but after rewatching the films recently I only like 1 and 3 I think the films could have went in a better direction if they just got new writers and a director to work on the films after 3
I mean yeah 4 and 5 and 2 are bad but 1 and 3 are pretty good.
@@giovonniiclayton 1 is the one I'm closest to liking, and parts of 3 and 4 are entertaining. The film series overall is embarrassing for me to look back on. The racist/crass humor hasn't aged well and the action (while spectacular) is messy and cluttered. All films in the series have bits of that.
What makes me despise the films is the stigma around them. When I meet someone irl and they learn I like Transformers, the movies always come up. When I say I'm a diehard Transformers fan, I'm saying I like multiple series about cool robots with goofy names having a political conflict with equal parts cosmic horror themes or looney tune esqe humor or genuinely touching character moments. But in general, the public just associates Transformers with low-brow humor, hard to follow action, and shoddy filmmaking. I like some of the edgy film designs and the music by Steve Jablonsky always slaps, but the rest just makes me cringe.
1 and 3 are great imo, and Rise of the beasts was so bland, it actually made me go back to rewatch TLK, and i kinda appreciated it.
@@606Xentrax606honestly, I 100% agree. I grew up watching the movies as a kid, and I will admit they do have nice action sequences, music, etc., but there’s so much against them that I just don’t really care for the Bayverse as a whole. Hell, I infinitely prefer the reboot timeline with BB and ROTB, like at least they got rid of most of what made the Bayverse intolerable
“It’s really hard to relax in a race car bed” is a bar
12:50 Love that the fake ass reflections just stay on her glasses when she looks away
holy shit lol
I was wondering what that was supposed to be lol.
Million of dollars made! and they still kept that shit in it hahaha fuck these movies are next level trash
what’s even the point of doing a fake reflection???
My love for this film died down like a year ago but the music (especially we have to go) is making my love for it want to comeback
Transformers 1 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!"
Transformers 2 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!"
Transformers 3 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!"
Transformers 4 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!!"
Transformers 5 plot: "They've been here longer than we've known!!! Also the planet itself is a transformer!!!"
Also those movies... hey we killed Megatron twice, Lockdown is dead tooo. hey you wanna another Megatron comeback, he will have a new skin and bunch of losers who were just locked up!
21:12 “Sam is in an fing hole somewhere” has got to be one of the most unintentionally funny things ever said
Thumbnail goes hard asf
21:58 bro really yelled to cover the sound of him ripping the paper out 😭😭
As Mr Sunday movies said it best
This movie's writers had a script on viking dark ages lying around and just added transformers to them.
Then submitted it to Michael Bay who had somehow already begun with the photography on the movie.
I honestly can’t believe this fever dream was allowed to be produced, shot, directed, acted in, and released to theaters and beyond.
I am so glad this is The End of Bayvangelion.
It would've been pretty funny if Bay had kept casting Stanley Tucci in different roles with each Transformers movie.
18:41 that blink and you miss it shot of Stephen Hawking is so funny to me, is the implication that he was a transformer too?
It gets even funnier if you assume the Transformer was just his wheelchair.
Idk how I never noticed that bumble bee is fighting a metal gear at 5:41
Bumblebee is the reason for the Geneva Convention.
This is my new headcanon.
as someone who constantly comes back to these transformers picture shows……. THANK YOU🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
My favorite part about Optimus freezing in space is that: relative to what you would expect the distance of cybertron to be (Outside our solar system at the very least) he gets to what looks like Jupiter. Which is probably the equivalent of your car breaking down like 2 miles from where you left.
29:45 watching Anthony Hopkins being thrown in the air like a rag doll is sending me
My boyfriend and I watched this movie for the first time last year. I was dying of laughter while he was just dying.
Also, I've never seen such a bombastic final act and been so bored.
Yep, it is sort of art to put so much wild shit into screen that audience do not care for any of it.
Funny thing is this wasn't a Transformers movie. It waa originally a movie about an archeologist discovering they were a descendant of Merlinand dealing with the difference between their studies and fantasy being real
Are you serious or you joking?😂
@@jarrodeaston6373 absolutely serious. It was a script lying around that they repurposed
@@Kekkersboy HUH
Source?
@@Kekkersboy Oh my God. That's hilarious 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I can't believe they actually did that.
This movie is so insane that @ 26:00 when they go “it is found” in a weird voice for a fat second I thought it was actually just dialogue from the movie
Cringe
I’m so happy this came out since I’ve been rewatching the other videos nonstop for the last year 🙏
marcus’ scream of agony while anthony hopkins gets fucking exploded is so good
THE GUARDIAN KNIGHTS ARE GOING TO KILL ME :(
AUTOBOTS. I'M GOING TO DIE 🗿
The energy of Marcus just trying to melt into a puddleof goo, and Dan's opening monolog to this video really cements this series as being one of the best in my heart.
I still think this will be the most insane movie that Anthony Hopkins was ever involved in, WHICH SAYS A LOT
I dont care if i miss the eclipse, i have a Cosmonaut Picture Show!
„Anthony Hopkins telling Mark Wahlberg that Bumblebee helped killing Hitler and commited war crimes“ was not on my bingo card
I’ve heard that the Bumblebee movie was originally supposed to be about Bumblebee fighting the Nazis in WW2 but after the Last Knight bombed Bumblebee was reworked into the fun coming of age film we got and also left room to be a jumping off point for a possible reboot, which makes sense considering how much the new movies don’t make sense as canon to the bayverse.
are they even meant to be canon to the michael bay ones at all? like even if it’s not outright confirmed or clarified they seem completely standalone and a reboot right (as someone who has a very casual awarenes of these movies)
@@demon-goatAs of rn, they are all not canon to the Bay films.
@@JoshMartin123 thank god, wikipedia says otherwise and that bothered me greatly lol
@@demon-goatThe main producer of the series said they are canon, which is why there is so much confusion.
@@demon-goat Yeah I had that question as well and it bothered me. I had to ask some friends who were more knowledgeable. But indeed they are not canon despite what some publications might say. From what I’ve gathered Bumblebee was originally suppose to be canon to the bayverse but as time went on it went in its own direction. At this point with how much Bumblebee and Rise of the Beasts has deviated from the bay canon I don’t think it can be considered the same universe (unless of course they do some major retcons). I mean all the autobots look completely different and more closely resemble the original Gen 1 designs
Marketed the whole movie around evil Optimus.
Evil Optimus proceeds to only show up for the endgame and he's evil for five minutes
Erm actually he’s called Nemesis Prime 🤓☝️
Seeing Marcus trying not to laugh at 0:38 instantly let me know this was going to be a great video
I know they hate the movies but this vid being up gave me so much joy
The only movie ever to make me leave the theater. I salute to you two.
what part made you leave?
Considering the first four Bayformers movies, I'm wondering what madness drove you to see the fifth one in a theater in the first place.
“That’s the watch that killed Hitler”
@@whoaitsdanny I love that first movie. It ain’t that bad. But this movie had everything wrong with it. Once unicron was introduced, I left.
@@Crash_2099 first movie has its problems, but yes, I like(d) it too. You held out longer than I did, I was burnt out on Bayformers by the third movie (or maybe that's when I went from denial into anger) so I salute _you_ for that.
22:20 as someone who lives in London I find it so funny to this day when they cut from a shot clearly done near the Bank of England to a road in the USA (I think it is Chicago) as our roads are too narrow to do a side by side of two cars... It's nearly as funny as The Flash using lots of London roads, a Uni building near mine and even a darts place I went to on a date as the pub when they see Zod's broadcast as all in the USA
When Marcus said Sam was in a Hole somewhere... I don't think it was intentional, but I like that this now links the Transformers movies to Holes.
Always gotta watch these as soon as possible because of good old TH-cam
I've rewatched the older parts of this series multiple times and have been waiting patiently for this one. I've just now been notified of it after 3 days.
Fucking TH-cam, man.
The sheer level of how entirely fucking obliterated our planet would be is so funny that it gets brushed over. Like we have a planet attached to ours? Gravity, fucked, atmosphere likely getting pulled out into space, tides. Humanity is gone in like a decade tops.
This was the last film i watched im theaters before the virus
And the unanimous silence from the line
“Sting like a bee”
Has stuck with me
It is time.
And I've come
Them killing off the last main character without even explaining how is absolutely wild lol
Bumblebee in WW2 has to be up there as one of the most ridicous Bayformer moments.
Imagine CoD game telling a story of Allied forces winning with help of Bumblebee.
I love that in actual G1 Transformers there is an episode where they go back in time and team up with Merlin. Its lowkey awesome cause hes just a wizard, like hes shooting decepticons with lightning n shit.
