Why do you guys always have to post so late at night where I'm from? my Mom's already complaining why I stay up at night for too long it's pretty annoying since I do want to watch your videos but I'm pretty tired and need rest at the same time this stinks for me oh well hope to enjoy the video
Kuro at the end of the classic series breakdowns could you make a video with all the highlights and reflect back on all 4 seasons and look at all the highest ranked episodes I think a video over that would be fun!!!!
I feel like the Eye Guy opening is the most canon, because it fit with the narrative that Ben unlocked an alien accidentally and try to use it and then somehow fail and it the reason why Animo able to capture Grandpa Max and Gwen.
But heatblast was the most badass and had well animated fight scenes I loved it I guess that's what you get for being the original alien intended for this movie still loved eye guy though not gonna lie
I quite literally always watch the Eye Guy opening just so I can see him one last time before moving on to DAA and AF (I have a complete season 4 DVD case which means I can watch all three openings of the movie).
Personally I always loved the idea that the Omnitrix was created to help everyone understand one another and be in peace. I figure Azmuth initially intended to make more of them for everyone, but then saw the weapon potential and abandoned the idea. I agree that Tetrax Myaxx and Gluto got wasted. So many great characters. Kinda would have been nice if they at least showed Myaxx on regular basis working with Azmuth even just as cameos. Heck, I would have loved to see a dynamic between her, Azmuth and Albedo!
It could alsod be possible that azmuth intended for a user to act as a sort of diplomat, perhaps a trusted plumber like Max who can help two species understand one another by transforming into both of them and walking in their shoes and using that experience to talk to them whilst sharing their experience and perspective from both side

@@edgargaebolg9307 oh yes i remember that episode, i really liked that episode purely for the fact it shows how bens transformation can be used as a tool for diplomacy rather than just fighting bad guys
“The Earth isn’t covered in skin” Petropia seemed pretty plain and boring in Alien Force, but in the movie I never realized they show you the “intended canon” version of it
We need an episode were is show that tetrax dream is to open a hoverboard shop, it would be cool to see him leaving the bounty hunting and open a shop in his home planet xd
Can we talk about how azmuth took the core but left the band. Yes he put the back but I could see Azmuth taking the core and just leaving Ben with the band stuck on his wrist forever
I feel like both explanations for the omnitrix work. Azmuth hated that he built a device for war and he wanted to make something that's the opposite of that. So the omnitrix not only can represent peace and unity but it can bring about the opposite of war and death by reviving an entire species.
I’m sad we never got more tetrax in the original continuity. He’s one of my favourites. I think this version of Azmuth is either my favourite or 2nd favourite.
The reason there's only one Omnitrix is because the one in the original series is the prototype, not the official model. You don't start mass producing a product before finalizing its design.
Concerning Azmuth's explanation given here; is there any reason to assume he never intended to make more? Since I assumed he was telling the truth as a kid, my assumption was that Ben's Omnitrix was sort of a prototype that reached completion or close enough to it, and that Azmuth intended to mass produce the device once he was happy with it - but before he could word got out about the device and attracted all the wrong attention, leaving Azmuth to be disappointed in everyone seeing a weapon in his masterpiece, and so he didn't create more.
@@zeratul____1228 Azmuth did say he started working on the full thing after Ben got the prototype. I like to think Azmuth did that either in case Ben ever needed the official thing or cause he hated the Ultimatrix so much.
Lets take a moment and appreciate the relationship between Ben and Gwen. In the Classic Series they are mostly found fighting with each other , but in Secret of The Omnitrix , when Ben loses (or he thinks he did) Gwen , he is genuinely sad and can't stop blaming himself. But when he found out that she's alive , he has tears in his eyes and runs towards her and hugs her , with Gwen having a smile on her face. This shows that they really care about each other. I think both fighting throughout the Classic Series helps building this moment in Secret of the Omnitrix. They both grow and care about each other. Ben as well genuinely grows in Season 4 , like how he gave his 'earned' money to the needy in Ready to Rumble ,and actually working with his team in Ben 10 vs Negative 10. In the episode The Ultimate Sacrifice , Ben kisses Gwen before sacrificing himself , which you can't even imagine the Classic Ben doing. In Omniverse when the Alien Force Trio gets seperated , both Ben and Gwen try not to make it a big deal of it , and say goodbye to each other remembering the time of their roadtrip. This is why Ben and Gwen are one of the best 'cousin' duos of all time in cartoons.
In my honest opinion, I think the way big's design in the classic series is the best designed one out of all the Ben 10 series. From a huge towering appearance to the colour schemes that he has his booming voice when he speaks because of how big he is and the multitude of blades around his body. I honestly didn't think he would have another set of eyes and thought these were more of cheeks spheres. But regardless it's still my favourite version of the way big
This and Omniverse were the best Way Big designs of all time. UAF was too bland in my opinion and until Omniverse came, it was the most popular version of Way Big.
@@meisnewperson yes I agree 👍too, have 4 eye on chin it a creepy idea and also thank to kuro I just realized he have 4 eyes because I was young I don't notice that 😲
Real quick... both explanations of why the Omnitrix was made are great, especially since this one is shared to an immature kid still growing and learning, while the second one is shared to a mature teen who understands his role in the universe and only plans to keep going... and both of the explanations can be correct at the same time, as Ben proves throughout the entire series... especially that scene with the other Big Chill that is shown
6:34 I think Ben's referring to when he used the Omnitrix a second time in quick succession to chase Animo down, when he kept morphing before landing on Grey Matter. Gwen and Max warned him not to, but Ben insisted because Animo was getting away. I think the movie's implying that this botched transformation is what somehow initially started the countdown after Animo's reactor destabilized it.
Kind of a stretch since the movie heavily detailed the wave from the DNA bomb hitting the Omnitrix seems like the botched transformations we're just a side effect
I think it's actually fascinating that they mentioned the destruction of Petropia in this movie and also followed it in Alien Force with Ben ressurecting the whole planet
With inconsistencies of course it's like they knew petropia got blew up by vilgax and they decided to make their own version of what happened which is exactly what they did
Ben having a massive existential crisis, and Kuro just analyzing the quick change animation. Valid Also, you could argue that it was. The self destruct didn’t seem to activate until after Ben had already destroyed the machine. Where he technically went wrong was when he chased him down after the fact.
ben: looses gwen and say that it should of been him kuro: the flash is the same and oooh a three eyed lizard (i know gwen didnt die but it was still funny)
Azmuth is... probably my second-favorite character in the Ben 10 franchise. He's one of those characters that, yes, he's smarter that basically everybody, but he doesn't flaunt it. He prefers to keep to himself, and doesn't look down on people for being lesser, only really judging them when they REALLY fuck up. And when the stakes are big, he DOES help out. Sure, in this movie he does have to grow into it, but he stays that way for the rest of the continuity.
Imagine if azmuth unlocked alien x instead of waybig like he just said "SCREW IT I'm just gonna give this kid one of the most powerful aliens in the omnitrix" that would have been hilarious
Well, even if that happen. What if Ben suffers the same thing like in Alien Force, one action and then getting stuck with the other minds. What if he doesn't make a good choice or gets declined?
@4:40 I love this scene right here. It’s a big lesson for Ben to learn… FROM THE OMNITRIX!! He got the Alien he wanted, his strongest Alien at the time, and he still failed. This helped him a lot going forward to keep working with what the Omnitrix gives him. I’d like to think the Omnitrix is sentient enough to help Ben learn how to use different aliens for different scenarios. It would go a long way for Azmuth’s intellect to create an AI so advanced, it analyzes the situation as Ben is seeing it, which isn’t a common thing for unenhanced humans.
6:40 Ben is a child and after just experiencing the loss of Gwen it’s understandable that in his position of power he’d take responsibility and feel guilty, and with guilt, shame and the loss of a loved one it’s hard to make rational decisions and you’d need someone to tell you it’s not your fault.
I really love the explanation that Azmuth created the Omnitrix to help all the beings of the galaxy understand each other. The whole “I’m one of everybody.” is such a cool thing to me.
8:45 I don’t think Cannonbolt is necessarily stronger than four arms. I think it’s a combination of his hardness shell and the speed he builds up upon rolling. Four arms is essentially strength and boxer like fighting while Cannonbolt is like a living bullet
I prefer the more snarky Azmuth, he feels more like a Ben 10 character and is more fun to watch than a begrudging, whiny, old dude. Not to mention I could actually see this version getting along with Ben.
I actually prefer Azmuth here and Omniverse, as his personality is believable and I can join those two together to see how he changed to be more patient over the years. I didn't really like the UAF version as it was more dramatic "Yoda-esque" take on him, something I don't feel suits Azmuth's personality because my point of reference is from this movie.
@@Substantial-hf1rm I don't like the UAF version so cranky but the omniverse is just so wise and smart and really feels like a guiding mentor to Ben and no longer a selfish, uncaring character and his voice fits him so well he actually feels like a first thinker the smartest being in five galaxies because he always has a plan for everything even in near death moments
Actually what Ben is referring to at 6:39 isn’t the Reactor going off, but Ben using the watch afterwards. When he turns into Greymatter after the Reactor you can hear the watching beeping repeatedly as if to say “ARE YOU 100% FUCKING SURE YOU WANNA DO THIS, KID?”. He used it too hastily and indirectly activated the self destruct.
@@StupidWeb I agree. The Clones, as said by themselves, were meant to be expendable. And albiet 99 was his own character like most other clones, at the end of the day he didn't have the focus that Gwen did
I remember watching the scene where he breaks down the door to azmuth's lab as cannonbolt and getting chills as he gets better and better at striking it each time and finally breaking it down after one last call out to azmuth. Probably one of my favorite scenes in all of ben 10.
My interpretation was that the omnitrix was meant to be a diplomacy tool, like we see in omniverse when Ben uses gravattack as a mediator. I just assumed azimuth planned to make more, but decided it was too much trouble and discontinued it. I forgot the alien force explanation.
The Alien Force reason was that Azimuth created Ascalon first and this upset his girlfriend?wife?lover? into leaving him, he gave Ascalon to George of the Forever Knights who defeated Dagon with it, then - to try and make amends with her for creating a weapon instead of something in a peace and understanding vein - he got to work on the first omnitrix.
In the way I like to see it, the Omnitrix being a prototype suggests that Azmuth never truly finished it, probably because of his nihilistic attitude. So he dumped it on Xylene and she decided to give it to Max due to their shared history and his accolades as a plumber
Interestingly, you can make everything kind of work if Azmuth's perspective changed over time. So at first he's building the omnitrix as a Noah's Ark for DNA, thus the unitrix, which doesn't really have a proper transform function, then he realizes it's potential as a tool for diplomacy, and develops the prototype omnitrix. But then, rumors begin to spread about his invention, and people like Vilgax realize it's potential as a weapon, and in disgust he discards it and falls into nihilism, seeing himself as a failure who is incapable of making anything that isn't a weapon, and becoming the Azmuth we see in the movie.
@@robertcagatin3690 Love these theories. Makes me like azmuth much more. As he's not just another arrogant scientist, but someone with the guilt of having blood of so many living things on his hands.
I feel like he had Xylene give it to Max because he knew of Max's reputation, so he felt that Max was one of the only people, or at least a person, who would be strong enough to keep it out of the hands of evil. Max was probably just a storage device for the Omnitrix in Azmuth's eyes
When they first aired the movie I remember that it was mentioned the film would have a brand new alien but didn't show what it was. When the movie was on screen I thought it was in reference to Eye Guy, but it seems that was just a Red Herring for Way Big.
The Omnitrix was a prototype, right? So Azmuth might've been planning to mass produce Omnimatrixes for everyone everywhere. Then everyone would be able to experience the other guy's life. Though the singular Omnitrix being passed around does call for more unity and cooperation.
“Defeating Vilgax with Waybig, gifted to him by the creator of the Omnitrix after changing his worldview based on Ben’s own journey.” Tbh I wasn’t a fan of this trump card coming out of nowhere narratively and thematically, but the way you frame it makes me love it now.
11:56 The Omnitrix’s fail safe might have kicked in there to stop him somehow, we just didn’t see it. I guess this is the prototype Omnitrix and I don’t think we’ve seen the failsafe work to that level yet, but it is plausible.
8:24 wished you talked more about this scene. Not only was Ben had finally had it, but Cannonbolt's eyes twitching kinda empathizes just how much Ben has lost it in that scene
I first learned of "never fuck with cannonbolt" as soon as i saw that his ultimate form was pretty much the same, wich in the series means that hes already very strong and didnt need much upgrades Even tho in real life it just means that the designers just didnt care much
When I originally saw this movie I saw it after seeing the second Ben 10,000 episode where he pulls out Way Big against Kevin. And I feel like that's almost as fun as getting surprised by Way Big. Just seeing future Ben pull out this seemingly nuke of an alien in a fit of rage, then getting to see current Ben with his back to the wall and then the creator of the Omnitrix himself gives him the alien that is a living natural disaster in the hands of his future self.
yeah i always really liked seeing full circle things like that. like when Ben 10,000 turns into buzzshock after an earlier episode where we saw its species reeking havoc
As a person who just started watching Ben 10 on a lark, it's been fun watching these breakdowns and getting perspective on what it was like watching Ben 10 growing up while also seeing an adult brain reflect back on Ben 10 as an adult and what you still love about it. It's been a super fun companion to getting into the series. BTW, on HBO Max this is integrated as a multipart episode so I didn't even know it was a movie.
14:17 And this is what Ben told Izuku when he gave him his new Omnitrix in My Alien Academia! Wow, Ben is really well written in the Unlimited continuity.
Ngl, this legit made me cry tears of joy, just realizing that this series from my chilhood is just as good as i remember it, getting to revisit this movie that meant a lot to me and seeing that it still does, makes me feel like "you know what? It was worth it." People in my country liked to joke around on anyone who ever watched ben 10 (and i mean practically bully) but i still watched it because it meant so much for me. I was 8 when i started watching it, my 10 year anniversary WAS ben 10 themed and i dont care, it dont have a single regret, thank you kuro, a sincere thank you for making me realize this.
Now the real question is which version would they air in theatres if they did. Would they cycle it out so each time it’s different like the clue movie?
Sadly we're living in a universe where the trash TTG movie got a theatrical release (that performed well apparently) but Trouble In Tokyo and Secret Of The Omnitrix didn't.😞
I think the generator rex and ben 10 crossover moment where he says “What do you do when your best isnt enough?” I think the music is alright, kinda existential in my opinion.
4:26, 4:50 and 8:24, best character moments for Ben, in my opinion, just a little above The Ultimate Sacrifice. Seeing Ben just pissed about loosing Gwen, enough to literally try to kill Azmuth (he didn't know it was a suit when he went for the head 'o_o), shows that he truly cares about her that much, spats and all. Oh and 1:21 was super nice btw
I assumed the "I saw that the watch was acting weird at the reactor, but I used it anyway!" referred to AFTER stopping the DNA bomb, so Ben is (somewhat randomly) assuming that the DNA Bomb damaged the Omnitrix, but Ben using it again anyway (becoming Greymatter at the reactor) is what started the Self Destruct.
Ben is the alien Avatar Want to go, all aliens lived together in harmony. Then, everything changed when Vilgax attacked. Only Azmuth, master of all things alien, could stop him. But when the world needed him most, he finished.
There's a theory that says that after the ending of this movie, Ben went to the infested mall and got bit by one of the zombies. That's how Benzarro's homeworld came to be.
Yup Ben became the Patient X and wielder of the Zombitrix while Gwen who didn't develop any powers, became a scientist to cure Benzaro in a secure secret bunker with Dr. Animo who is now one of the good guys working on a cure for Benzaro
6:28 the zombies they're referring to is Eon's minions in ben 10 race against time. There's a movie trivia fact that pops up saying that this movie is set between episode #52 and the Race against time movie. Meaning the live action movie is more cannon than we originally thought and is played out as if it were an episode
What a coincidence right now, when I was just coming back watching all three alternate intros, and they all so rock!! So far as only if they would do extra stuff like this for other kinds of venues.
Head cannon: “grey mode.” The watch is locked out of general interaction. This would be why Ben can’t change back manually until the recalibration, because transformation put it into “lock mode”
16:16 Ever since i was a kid, i always thought Way big looks like the ship from Lilo and stitch. Especially the version from the original series, where he looked way more machine like
I always loved how the music notes go higher and higher at 15:00. When I first watched the movie, it made me go "How big is this alien!?" Like it never stops going higher.
I’ve always liked to think the Omnitrix was designed to be both a way of universal understanding but also a DNA backup in case of an extinction. I figured that Azmuth would try to cover a lot of bases to try to make it up to Zennith
Dude, your breakdowns of the series are my favorite videos nowadays, can't wait for you to get to UAF, OMNIVERSE and of course the live action movies, keep it up with the good work man!
Ben gets distraught over seeing Gwen being taken away, thinking she will die. He transforms into fourarms knowing full well that he will risk the universe blowing up, but yells "I don't care!" When Gwen is snatched away, Ben repeats "It should've been me!!" As he bangs on the closed lid. A scene showing Ben's care for Gwen and how he'd rather been the one to die instead of her. He risked destroying the universe just to get a SHOT at saving Gwen. Kuro: Hehe re-used shape effect!
@@neeljavia2965 I know that's what a breakdown is I just think it's funny and odd that he didn't have much to say to one of the most iconic Ben 10 moments in the franchise
In the scene where Ben's mourning Gewn on the howerboards, the shadows around his mouth look like a goatee, which I can't get out of my head makes the scene too funny to be emotionally impactful.
Alright I’m just going to say this now, I MUCH prefer Waybig’s original voice. It really gave you a feeling of the sheer scale of Waybig, making him even feel big just from speaking. In UAF they really undermined this voice and made it less booming and huge sounding. And don’t even get me started on the “hahahaha racist Japanese accent on Kaiju monster” that Omniverse did. Maybe it’s just me, but I just like the original voice the most.
I really don't see how OV Waybig's voice is racist at all. Racist implies it makes fun of Asians or something but no, it's literally dialogue suited for Ben with a different accent. Is NRG's voice a problem too? Or Clockwork's? I get not liking his voice but it takes more than speaking with a Japanese accent to be racist.
@@MilczekHD To be fair, it doesn't make much sense for any of Ben's aliens to have different accent other than his own. Granted, I like NRG and Clockwork's accents, not because they make sense, but mainly because I love how Dee Bradley Baker does a great job at them as well as the fact that they ALWAYS spoke in those accents when they were introduced. I wouldn't say the same for Way Big because when he was introduced, he spoke in the same accent as Ben all the way till UAF. Then Omniverse comes and retcons his accent.... Yeah... Sometimes, things are done in shows/movies purely out of artistic liberties and not because they make sense.
@@zohebrafi Yep, it is just artistic liberties. But Way Big having japanese accent DO make sense in context (as in, the reasoning doesn’t come out of nowhere). Just like NRG, an energy alien similar to a reactor, has a voice with Russian accent in tribute to, well, the Russians of Soviet era. Way Big was a tribute to Japanese tokusatsu franchise, primarily Ultraman. And ever since UAF, he’s becoming more and more similar to Ultraman esp. on the looks. Personally, I don’t care about the accent because I never really noticed it. Seems to be just a slight accent and not something to make a big deal about.
I think that the Omnitrix motive for it's creation, with all the functions that it has, it would never fit for peace on the original continuity. But ironically with how we see it on the reboot the origins of the Omnitrix, it makes a lot of sense with how it works the Omnitrix with the idea of Azmuth still working.
1:01 - Actually, If my memory doesn't fail me, in the Brazilian Dub (the only one I watched up to the Breakdown) they did dub the alternate takes to match the Alien shown in the Intro. Because I remember watching Ben say: "Que bom que eu virei o Olhudo naquela hora, se não eu tava frito". (That's the BR Dub localization of the scene). So, I don't know about the other dubs, but the Brazilian dub did translate the other Alien's names... As far as the Eye Guy one is concerned.
I prefer this movies version of Azmuth where he had a bit more snark to him unlike in the later series where Azumth seemed to act like a wise mentor character. I understand that his experience with Ben made him rethink his personality towards people a lot but I still wish he kept some of his snark
I guess I would have wanted some scenes with grandpa max where he's trying to contact tetrax in his ship just to give a few scenes and make him feel like an actual character and a grandfather where he's worried about his grandkids
17:00 or maybe, and this is a bit of a stretch, Ben's Omnitrix is the protoype, and when Azmuth realized how ppl like Vilgax were planning to use it, he nixed the whole project, but couldn't get the prototype back in time to stop Vilgax from going after it.

I like to think Azmuth did that either in case Ben ever needed the official thing or cause he hated the Ultimatrix so much.
Lets take a moment and appreciate the relationship between Ben and Gwen. In the Classic Series they are mostly found fighting with each other , but in Secret of The Omnitrix , when Ben loses (or he thinks he did) Gwen , he is genuinely sad and can't stop blaming himself. But when he found out that she's alive , he has tears in his eyes and runs towards her and hugs her , with Gwen having a smile on her face. This shows that they really care about each other. I think both fighting throughout the Classic Series helps building this moment in Secret of the Omnitrix. They both grow and care about each other. Ben as well genuinely grows in Season 4 , like how he gave his 'earned' money to the needy in Ready to Rumble ,and actually working with his team in Ben 10 vs Negative 10. In the episode The Ultimate Sacrifice , Ben kisses Gwen before sacrificing himself , which you can't even imagine the Classic Ben doing. In Omniverse when the Alien Force Trio gets seperated , both Ben and Gwen try not to make it a big deal of it , and say goodbye to each other remembering the time of their roadtrip. This is why Ben and Gwen are one of the best 'cousin' duos of all time in cartoons.

@@abdulmuhaymin3872 it was probably intentional because despite being cousins they sometimes act like siblings

In my honest opinion, I think the way big's design in the classic series is the best designed one out of all the Ben 10 series. From a huge towering appearance to the colour schemes that he has his booming voice when he speaks because of how big he is and the multitude of blades around his body. I honestly didn't think he would have another set of eyes and thought these were more of cheeks spheres. But regardless it's still my favourite version of the way big
I like UAF better though
This and Omniverse were the best Way Big designs of all time. UAF was too bland in my opinion and until Omniverse came, it was the most popular version of Way Big.
@@meisnewperson yes I agree 👍too, have 4 eye on chin it a creepy idea and also thank to kuro I just realized he have 4 eyes because I was young I don't notice that 😲

Real quick... both explanations of why the Omnitrix was made are great, especially since this one is shared to an immature kid still growing and learning, while the second one is shared to a mature teen who understands his role in the universe and only plans to keep going... and both of the explanations can be correct at the same time, as Ben proves throughout the entire series... especially that scene with the other Big Chill that is shown
6:34 I think Ben's referring to when he used the Omnitrix a second time in quick succession to chase Animo down, when he kept morphing before landing on Grey Matter. Gwen and Max warned him not to, but Ben insisted because Animo was getting away. I think the movie's implying that this botched transformation is what somehow initially started the countdown after Animo's reactor destabilized it.
Kind of a stretch since the movie heavily detailed the wave from the DNA bomb hitting the Omnitrix seems like the botched transformations we're just a side effect
I think it's actually fascinating that they mentioned the destruction of Petropia in this movie and also followed it in Alien Force with Ben ressurecting the whole planet
With inconsistencies of course it's like they knew petropia got blew up by vilgax and they decided to make their own version of what happened which is exactly what they did

Azmuth is... probably my second-favorite character in the Ben 10 franchise. He's one of those characters that, yes, he's smarter that basically everybody, but he doesn't flaunt it. He prefers to keep to himself, and doesn't look down on people for being lesser, only really judging them when they REALLY fuck up. And when the stakes are big, he DOES help out. Sure, in this movie he does have to grow into it, but he stays that way for the rest of the continuity.
"I'm the smartest being in 3, maybe 5 galaxies"

Imagine if azmuth unlocked alien x instead of waybig like he just said "SCREW IT I'm just gonna give this kid one of the most powerful aliens in the omnitrix" that would have been hilarious
Azmuth would probably know that Alien X wouldn’t be a good idea, given how it works
Nah Ben ain't deserving of that type of power yet good joke though yeah and the whole Serena and Bellicus debate wouldn't be great
@lets get *burbs* funky Yeah he won't even give Ben master control what makes you think azmuth is just going to give him a celestialsapien
@lets get *burbs* funky I mean to even consider calling him stupid is kinda absurd considering the genius the guy is
Well, even if that happen. What if Ben suffers the same thing like in Alien Force, one action and then getting stuck with the other minds. What if he doesn't make a good choice or gets declined?
@4:40
I love this scene right here. It’s a big lesson for Ben to learn… FROM THE OMNITRIX!! He got the Alien he wanted, his strongest Alien at the time, and he still failed. This helped him a lot going forward to keep working with what the Omnitrix gives him.
I’d like to think the Omnitrix is sentient enough to help Ben learn how to use different aliens for different scenarios. It would go a long way for Azmuth’s intellect to create an AI so advanced, it analyzes the situation as Ben is seeing it, which isn’t a common thing for unenhanced humans.
6:40 Ben is a child and after just experiencing the loss of Gwen it’s understandable that in his position of power he’d take responsibility and feel guilty, and with guilt, shame and the loss of a loved one it’s hard to make rational decisions and you’d need someone to tell you it’s not your fault.
Good point
Yeah, that's what I was thinking. It doesn't really matter that the self destruct wasn't actually fault, just that Ben BELIEVED it to be his fault.
Doesn't really explain the way Gwen is acting towards Ben.
"Look at Max with nothing"
It's not nothing, it's just his muscles.
‘This is too blue green as opposed to lime green’
>Changes lime to yellow
"And with a Petrosapian and Arburian Pelarota in the same room, you've got Diamondbolt"
My mind just remembered Father Chrome and Car shots
I really love the explanation that Azmuth created the Omnitrix to help all the beings of the galaxy understand each other. The whole “I’m one of everybody.” is such a cool thing to me.
8:45 I don’t think Cannonbolt is necessarily stronger than four arms. I think it’s a combination of his hardness shell and the speed he builds up upon rolling. Four arms is essentially strength and boxer like fighting while Cannonbolt is like a living bullet
Azmuth here felt a lot more casual and apathetic compared to his wise mentor schtick in later seasons.
I preferred the later seasons sort of like a yoda mentor type thing
I prefer the more snarky Azmuth, he feels more like a Ben 10 character and is more fun to watch than a begrudging, whiny, old dude. Not to mention I could actually see this version getting along with Ben.
I actually prefer Azmuth here and Omniverse, as his personality is believable and I can join those two together to see how he changed to be more patient over the years. I didn't really like the UAF version as it was more dramatic "Yoda-esque" take on him, something I don't feel suits Azmuth's personality because my point of reference is from this movie.
@@Substantial-hf1rm I don't like the UAF version so cranky but the omniverse is just so wise and smart and really feels like a guiding mentor to Ben and no longer a selfish, uncaring character and his voice fits him so well he actually feels like a first thinker the smartest being in five galaxies because he always has a plan for everything even in near death moments
@@zohebrafi Agreed I prefer omniverse as well
What's funny to me is that this isn't the last time Waybig threw Vilgax into space.
"Looks like Vilgax is blasting off, agaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
3:50 I wouldn't say that ruins the illusion, they've shown Wildvine merging with other plants before, remember?
Actually what Ben is referring to at 6:39 isn’t the Reactor going off, but Ben using the watch afterwards. When he turns into Greymatter after the Reactor you can hear the watching beeping repeatedly as if to say “ARE YOU 100% FUCKING SURE YOU WANNA DO THIS, KID?”. He used it too hastily and indirectly activated the self destruct.
4:53 Gwen’s “death” is the most saddest moment in any Cartoon Network show in my opinion. Sadder than other shows
Since Clone Wars first aired on CN, I think 99's death is sadder, but that may be because I never bought Gwen's death here
@@StupidWeb I agree. The Clones, as said by themselves, were meant to be expendable. And albiet 99 was his own character like most other clones, at the end of the day he didn't have the focus that Gwen did

@@curtisleblanc5897 thanks for the correction.
@@harryblocks
you are welcome, sir.
I remember watching the scene where he breaks down the door to azmuth's lab as cannonbolt and getting chills as he gets better and better at striking it each time and finally breaking it down after one last call out to azmuth. Probably one of my favorite scenes in all of ben 10.
My interpretation was that the omnitrix was meant to be a diplomacy tool, like we see in omniverse when Ben uses gravattack as a mediator. I just assumed azimuth planned to make more, but decided it was too much trouble and discontinued it.
I forgot the alien force explanation.
I agree with that sort of a way to find a compromise with no racism (speciesism?)
The Alien Force reason was that Azimuth created Ascalon first and this upset his girlfriend?wife?lover? into leaving him, he gave Ascalon to George of the Forever Knights who defeated Dagon with it, then - to try and make amends with her for creating a weapon instead of something in a peace and understanding vein - he got to work on the first omnitrix.

@@Yetigaming420 oh
4:28 i got goosebumps when i heard this when i first watched the movie
In the way I like to see it, the Omnitrix being a prototype suggests that Azmuth never truly finished it, probably because of his nihilistic attitude. So he dumped it on Xylene and she decided to give it to Max due to their shared history and his accolades as a plumber
Interestingly, you can make everything kind of work if Azmuth's perspective changed over time. So at first he's building the omnitrix as a Noah's Ark for DNA, thus the unitrix, which doesn't really have a proper transform function, then he realizes it's potential as a tool for diplomacy, and develops the prototype omnitrix. But then, rumors begin to spread about his invention, and people like Vilgax realize it's potential as a weapon, and in disgust he discards it and falls into nihilism, seeing himself as a failure who is incapable of making anything that isn't a weapon, and becoming the Azmuth we see in the movie.
Dang these are both good theories I like it
@@robertcagatin3690 Love these theories.
Makes me like azmuth much more.
As he's not just another arrogant scientist, but someone with the guilt of having blood of so many living things on his hands.
I feel like he had Xylene give it to Max because he knew of Max's reputation, so he felt that Max was one of the only people, or at least a person, who would be strong enough to keep it out of the hands of evil. Max was probably just a storage device for the Omnitrix in Azmuth's eyes
@@neeljavia2965 Facts
When they first aired the movie I remember that it was mentioned the film would have a brand new alien but didn't show what it was. When the movie was on screen I thought it was in reference to Eye Guy, but it seems that was just a Red Herring for Way Big.
The Omnitrix was a prototype, right? So Azmuth might've been planning to mass produce Omnimatrixes for everyone everywhere. Then everyone would be able to experience the other guy's life.
Though the singular Omnitrix being passed around does call for more unity and cooperation.
If azmuth did mass produce Omnitrixes Vilgax would have to just go on a quick shopping trip to get it
“Defeating Vilgax with Waybig, gifted to him by the creator of the Omnitrix after changing his worldview based on Ben’s own journey.” Tbh I wasn’t a fan of this trump card coming out of nowhere narratively and thematically, but the way you frame it makes me love it now.
I'm so glad that Ben and Gwen finally start to appreciate each other at the end of this. But that should've happened earlier in the series.
11:56 The Omnitrix’s fail safe might have kicked in there to stop him somehow, we just didn’t see it. I guess this is the prototype Omnitrix and I don’t think we’ve seen the failsafe work to that level yet, but it is plausible.
8:24 wished you talked more about this scene. Not only was Ben had finally had it, but Cannonbolt's eyes twitching kinda empathizes just how much Ben has lost it in that scene
14:08 the face vilgax makes when everything he works or is gone just like that
I first learned of "never fuck with cannonbolt" as soon as i saw that his ultimate form was pretty much the same, wich in the series means that hes already very strong and didnt need much upgrades

When I originally saw this movie I saw it after seeing the second Ben 10,000 episode where he pulls out Way Big against Kevin. And I feel like that's almost as fun as getting surprised by Way Big. Just seeing future Ben pull out this seemingly nuke of an alien in a fit of rage, then getting to see current Ben with his back to the wall and then the creator of the Omnitrix himself gives him the alien that is a living natural disaster in the hands of his future self.
yeah i always really liked seeing full circle things like that. like when Ben 10,000 turns into buzzshock after an earlier episode where we saw its species reeking havoc
As a person who just started watching Ben 10 on a lark, it's been fun watching these breakdowns and getting perspective on what it was like watching Ben 10 growing up while also seeing an adult brain reflect back on Ben 10 as an adult and what you still love about it. It's been a super fun companion to getting into the series.
BTW, on HBO Max this is integrated as a multipart episode so I didn't even know it was a movie.

Gwen: “Something you’d never understand.”
Ben (does it 3 times): “BRUH.”
I'm sure all Ben 10 fans wish this got a theatrical release.
Now the real question is which version would they air in theatres if they did. Would they cycle it out so each time it’s different like the clue movie?
Thata would be so cool shoot that gotta Teen Titans in the theater
Yes. This and the Gen rex/Ben 10 heroes United Special. (But that makes more sense not to release in theaters')
Hey I guess it got a theatrical release I saw an picture showing this Ben 10 movie poster on it ...I found it on Google
Sadly we're living in a universe where the trash TTG movie got a theatrical release (that performed well apparently) but Trouble In Tokyo and Secret Of The Omnitrix didn't.😞

Honestly this whole Ben 10 Episodes Breakdowns is my favorite series.
4:26, 4:50 and 8:24, best character moments for Ben, in my opinion, just a little above The Ultimate Sacrifice. Seeing Ben just pissed about loosing Gwen, enough to literally try to kill Azmuth (he didn't know it was a suit when he went for the head 'o_o), shows that he truly cares about her that much, spats and all.
Oh and 1:21 was super nice btw
I assumed the "I saw that the watch was acting weird at the reactor, but I used it anyway!" referred to AFTER stopping the DNA bomb, so Ben is (somewhat randomly) assuming that the DNA Bomb damaged the Omnitrix, but Ben using it again anyway (becoming Greymatter at the reactor) is what started the Self Destruct.
Ben is the alien Avatar
Want to go, all aliens lived together in harmony.
Then, everything changed when Vilgax attacked.
Only Azmuth, master of all things alien, could stop him.
But when the world needed him most, he finished.
That could work LOL
I think it makes more sense for Secrets of the Omnitrix to take place at the end of the original series followed up with Destroy All Aliens.
I completely agree
There's a theory that says that after the ending of this movie, Ben went to the infested mall and got bit by one of the zombies. That's how Benzarro's homeworld came to be.
That's honestly dark & not too far off, when I think about it.
Good theory but won't work for the prime timeline

There's a movie trivia fact that pops up saying that this movie is set between episode #52 and the Race against time movie. Meaning the live action movie is more cannon than we originally thought and is played out as if it were an episode
What a coincidence right now, when I was just coming back watching all three alternate intros, and they all so rock!! So far as only if they would do extra stuff like this for other kinds of venues.
This movie does a great job of telling the viewer that if Way Big shows up, some serious fighting's about to go down.
Head cannon: “grey mode.” The watch is locked out of general interaction. This would be why Ben can’t change back manually until the recalibration, because transformation put it into “lock mode”
16:16 Ever since i was a kid, i always thought Way big looks like the ship from Lilo and stitch. Especially the version from the original series, where he looked way more machine like
7:11 well, that can be explained as Ben's child mind not fully thinking about the situation and also the grieving process
I always loved how the music notes go higher and higher at 15:00. When I first watched the movie, it made me go "How big is this alien!?" Like it never stops going higher.
I’ve always liked to think the Omnitrix was designed to be both a way of universal understanding but also a DNA backup in case of an extinction. I figured that Azmuth would try to cover a lot of bases to try to make it up to Zennith
Dude, your breakdowns of the series are my favorite videos nowadays, can't wait for you to get to UAF, OMNIVERSE and of course the live action movies, keep it up with the good work man!
Ben gets distraught over seeing Gwen being taken away, thinking she will die. He transforms into fourarms knowing full well that he will risk the universe blowing up, but yells "I don't care!"
When Gwen is snatched away, Ben repeats "It should've been me!!" As he bangs on the closed lid. A scene showing Ben's care for Gwen and how he'd rather been the one to die instead of her. He risked destroying the universe just to get a SHOT at saving Gwen.

In the scene where Ben's mourning Gewn on the howerboards, the shadows around his mouth look like a goatee, which I can't get out of my head makes the scene too funny to be emotionally impactful.
Alright I’m just going to say this now, I MUCH prefer Waybig’s original voice. It really gave you a feeling of the sheer scale of Waybig, making him even feel big just from speaking. In UAF they really undermined this voice and made it less booming and huge sounding. And don’t even get me started on the “hahahaha racist Japanese accent on Kaiju monster” that Omniverse did. Maybe it’s just me, but I just like the original voice the most.
Same. The Omniverse voice definitely sounded off to me
What how is it racist?
I really don't see how OV Waybig's voice is racist at all. Racist implies it makes fun of Asians or something but no, it's literally dialogue suited for Ben with a different accent. Is NRG's voice a problem too? Or Clockwork's? I get not liking his voice but it takes more than speaking with a Japanese accent to be racist.
@@MilczekHD To be fair, it doesn't make much sense for any of Ben's aliens to have different accent other than his own. Granted, I like NRG and Clockwork's accents, not because they make sense, but mainly because I love how Dee Bradley Baker does a great job at them as well as the fact that they ALWAYS spoke in those accents when they were introduced. I wouldn't say the same for Way Big because when he was introduced, he spoke in the same accent as Ben all the way till UAF. Then Omniverse comes and retcons his accent.... Yeah...
Sometimes, things are done in shows/movies purely out of artistic liberties and not because they make sense.
@@zohebrafi Yep, it is just artistic liberties. But Way Big having japanese accent DO make sense in context (as in, the reasoning doesn’t come out of nowhere). Just like NRG, an energy alien similar to a reactor, has a voice with Russian accent in tribute to, well, the Russians of Soviet era.
Way Big was a tribute to Japanese tokusatsu franchise, primarily Ultraman. And ever since UAF, he’s becoming more and more similar to Ultraman esp. on the looks.
Personally, I don’t care about the accent because I never really noticed it. Seems to be just a slight accent and not something to make a big deal about.
I think that the Omnitrix motive for it's creation, with all the functions that it has, it would never fit for peace on the original continuity. But ironically with how we see it on the reboot the origins of the Omnitrix, it makes a lot of sense with how it works the Omnitrix with the idea of Azmuth still working.
3:44 that dot could be not much of a problem if think about it since it’s a wild vine species that can shape or go into a tree or any plant like
1:01 - Actually, If my memory doesn't fail me, in the Brazilian Dub (the only one I watched up to the Breakdown) they did dub the alternate takes to match the Alien shown in the Intro. Because I remember watching Ben say: "Que bom que eu virei o Olhudo naquela hora, se não eu tava frito". (That's the BR Dub localization of the scene). So, I don't know about the other dubs, but the Brazilian dub did translate the other Alien's names... As far as the Eye Guy one is concerned.
This is the premiere of waybig so it makes sense that it’s in one of the biggest events in Ben 10
