    Fun Fact: During filming in Peru, a Peruvian child showed his Transformers drawings to director Steven Caple Jr., and in response, Caple invited him to the premiere, and paid to renovate his school's roof.

    While it would've been easy to have Optimus be the unchanging paragon of righteousness this time around, I kind of like that they pretty much just gave him the character arc that fans of the Bayverse insist that version had.

    • @TH_Sofa
      @TH_Sofa ปีที่แล้ว +41

      I like how they answer a somewhat loud question by giving him an arc, “if you care about humans why put your business on their planet?”. And the film answers that he honestly respects human solidarity, but knows that being on earth will only cause trouble, and by the end of the film realizes the “transformative” effect humans have.
      I know it’s corny, but the “till all are one” line really means a lot, it includes everything, all beings working together.
      I know maybe it wasn’t shined in the best in the most meaningful way. But it’s a step in the direction why humans are important to the transformers story. Because ironically our transformers will find themselves transformed by human action and emotion that will break them away from the hundreds of years at war they were at.

    I liked this kinda theme they had of Transformers handing down a piece of their power. Instead of Unicron making a buncha zombies, he's actually endowing Scurge with his power. Mirage hands Noah his power.. It's kinda whimsical and fitting, i liked it.

  • @SilverHyozanryu
    @SilverHyozanryu ปีที่แล้ว +119

    The best thing I think I can say about this movie is that it's exactly what I wish the first live action film had been like way back in 2007. Recognisable but still modern designs, likeable human characters, a varied cast of transformers and a simple plot. I still find bumblebee an overall better movie as I liked charlie a fair bit more than Noah and Optimus is still a little too murderer-ee for my liking. Not to mention the first few minutes on cybertron is probably the best live action transformers we'll ever get.
    Also the Gi joe tease kinda made me laugh more than anything but I'm totally game for it. I don't have much love for that franchise but im aware of its history with transformers.

      This film doesn't feel bayverse at all, Can any movie have big fights and some explosion without being considered a bay film vibe? This film was a little different, with little human conflict and more Tranformer action, Less over the top city wide destruction more contained battlefield and not filled with exposition after exposition and more time to breathe. There's actually an dilema between humans and autobot where they have to decide to go back to cybertrain or save earth and gives optimus a proper arc. It honestly has heart even if it just teases a whole another crossover espionage to sell toys but whatever. I honestly love this film.

    Fun fact: the original creators of the Terrorcons had many squabbles over the overall design of the logo in order to differentiate between deceptions and other Transformers, leading to the creators spending weeks in the jungle looking at the feeding and eating habits of jungle creatures. They found that after eating certain plants were consumed, certain apes would pick seeds out and leave the seeds in the same area of the habitat. A few weeks after the 'planting' of these seeds and the gathering of plants and vegetables and the lack of colors that come naturally on planets, it was decided to use the filming title of Blue Harvest while in pre production..

Wheeljack is a VW Kombi, a south american one so its hard to pinpoint what model year, but it is impossible if not very unlikely that any Minibus of that generation had power steering. Just a dumb gripe that shows the writers aren't car people. Other than that, I enjoyed the film.

    In Beast Wars (Called "Beasties" sometimes cuz of some weird censorship I dunno), they invented something called "Stasis Lock", which made Transformers verrrry hard to kill. Basically anything could happen to them, including getting ripped apart, but as long as their onboard AI can initiate "Stasis Lock" their "Spark" won't escape their chassis, which is ultimately what kills a Transformers. When in Stasis Lock a Transformer can't move until they're put back together.
    A Transformer can override Stasis Lock in order to keep functioning during a crisis, however doing so they'll risk not being able to initiate Stasis Lock when they need to and if they take too much damage, even if they're in one piece - their Spark will leave their chassis and they die.
    It's still pretty arbitrary when their AI can just initiate Stasis Lock. Some Transformers get decapitated and I can't imagine they had a conversation with their onboard AI before the fact but obviously SL was initiated cuz they're put together and fine later.
    I haven't seen the movie (YET), but as for the Ape transformer with the surfboard, I know that when the Maximals and Predicons first landed on earth they took on animal forms that looked like the animals on the planet, but later in the series an event happened that gave most of the active Transformers there "Transmetal" bodies. This was obviously Hasbro wanting to sell kids more toys, but the Transmetal bodies were more powerful and they did not look like robots disguised as animals anymore. They were robots who transformed into robotic-looking animals. Optimus Primal's new Transmetal robot form came with a flight mode that included flying around on a surfboard. So maybe that's the inspiration for whatever this new guy is in the movie.

    I guess I'll be the first to say it (as someone who LOVES Bumblebee) but 'Bumblebee' is literally Sam and Bee's relationship from the first movie with a different skin and set in the 80's. Also, it has the same problem any of the other movies have, more human than actual Transformer. ROTB has the best blend of both out of all the movies and, apparently, Transformers One is supposed to be ONLY Transformers and coming out next year

    I liked angry Prime in this. At this point, he’s not the super noble wise leader he becomes. He’s angry at himself for getting the autobots stuck here and for the war and the death of Bee, and he refuses to trust humans. Ironically Primal shows him how humanity is worth defending, which is paid off when Prime comes back to help Noah at the end.
    Not necessarily a super deep arc, but compared to the first 5 it’s really nice to see.

    The need for death in these films doesn't elevate the stakes or really ever give a satisfying (named character death payoff.

They were like we can defeat them together, but they've been together the whole movie? You lost 2 and now your lust for blood makes you op?

    Loved all the references to the 90s and even references to G1. The tie in to G.I. Joe was definitely a nice callback to the marvel comics. This might mean that the military we see work with the transformers will be the joes.
    Could this perhaps be Hasbros attempt to relaunch the joes into live action if so I’m all for it.
    My only complaints with the movie were we needed more scenes of the maximals and the Terrorcons. I’d have loved Unicron to have saved scourge somehow at the last minute so we could see him again.
