Interesting Fact: the scene where they jump put of the planes with the gliders was actually filmed obviously not every bit of it but i remember when they were filming this movie in downtown Chicago we were all downtown watching the people gliding thru the city it was dope. I also remember seeing the Optimus Prime truck under a bridge it was so dope seeing it in person as a kid
The official reason why Megan Fox doesn't reprise her role as Mikaela Banes is because shortly after filming for TF3 began, she made an unsavory comment about director Michael Bay, comparing his directing style to working conditions akin Adolf Hitler. Bay saw it more as a joke, but executive producer Steven Spieleberg insisted that she be fired. Fox and Bay are on good terms nowadays. Because Fox was let go during early filming, they had to quickly rewrite parts of the script and find a new actress (who is actually only a model), and so Rosie Huntington-Whitely was cast as Carly Spencer, a character that already existed in the original Generation 1 cartoon from the 1980s.
Ive loved this franchise and movie for years and im only now finding out lol Rosie did really good as "Carly spencer" considering shes not a professional actress (Being a model back then and all)
This would be the first role for Rosie Hunting-Whiteley as she was known for being a Victoria Secret Angel which is how she met Michael Bay as he used to direct all of the VS commercials. Rosie would go on to supporting role in Mad Max among other films and marry Jason Stathom. Megan fox did suffer public scrutiny with minor roles to keep her going. When Bay and Fox were on good terms he pushed for her to audition for April in the ninja turtles hit movies, thus sparking a flame back into her career.
Btw in this one... We can see how much Optimus developed in his character... In first one he was, lets say ,,kind", but here? He just doesnt give a F anymore and goes Doom Eternal on those Decepticons. He had enough. And its completely understandable
@@tytoalbasoren9457 honestly “like 5 mill years” is almost an understatement it’s probably more like, 500 million.. sorry if I went “🤓 erhmm actually” 😅
From my point of view, the best TF movie. The scene when they have to leave Earth and the sad music plus the Optimus rage scene, chefs kiss. I love those sooooo much. Basically this movie ended the series for me. The best one. And the soundtrack by Jablonski kills it so much
As much as I love this movie, and as much as I deeply respect Leonard Nimoy, I have an eternal beef with Sentinel Prime for killing Ironhide. Also, how did a falling desk miss Shockwave's head, but a coffee mug hits him?
I grew up with this series and this movie is my absolute favorite from the 5 films. They filmed this in downtown Chicago and I got the chance to see how they filmed the final battle man it was GREAT. The Last Knight has to be my second favorite from the whole series. Change my mind
@@tmac731 yes sir. Born and raised in Chicago. I was young as hell when they filmed this tho. I remember at the time my brother had a back Injury so he was going downtown to his therapy and one day I decided to go with him, unbeknownst to me that this movie was filming, let alone in Chicago. We pulled up to a red light and I got my face buried in the phone and I hear 2 semis pull up at the red light as well, all I hear is my brother say “damn wtf” all excited and he took a picture with his blackberry. We were sitting RIGHT BETWEEN Optimus’ Peterbilt AND megatron. Man that was something. I wish he still had that phone w the pictures
The Last Knight, man? They honestly stopped trying with that movie. Loved seeing Anthony Hopkins, sure, but most everything in that movie was a mess. Dark of the Moon 100%, but I'd give #2 to the first film.
Fun fact about Sam’s new girlfriend in this film, the actors name is Rosie Alice Huntington-Whiteley and someone I used to work with at an electrical installation company went to the same school as her and even sat next to her in Maths Class
You do realise Sam killed Megatron and Starscream, the most powerful Decepticons single-handedly, Megatron with the Allspark and Starscream with a boomstick.
Optimus was originally going to accept Megatron's peace deal but then the book came out before the movie, spoiling the ending, so it was changed to Optimus just killing Megatron
LOL!!! Yes that actor's name is Tyrese. I remember when he first got famous singing in a Coke-a-Cola commercial. Which led to his music career. He's a very talented singer. (I think he raps under another name). Which led to an acting career.
This one and the next one are my favorite Transformers movies. Really like the 2007 movie too. But three and four are just my favorites. So big. So much action. Usually people who grew up with G1 dislike these movies but I really enjoyed them and I'm old enough to remember seeing the 1986 animated movie in the theater..
Another awesome reaction! And also not sure if anyone else explained but as for why they didn't do tomahawk missiles before was because they need to be laser guided or GPS guided. The military didn't have GPS cords for individual flying decepticon so it was a laser guided strike. Which can be done by aircraft lasering a target or ground troops painting the target with laser. Anyways just wanted to clarify why that scene worked like that. Great reaction again!! Keep them up!
The best part of this movie was added Ken Jung to the cast "YOU MESTED WITH THE WRONG WANG TODAY" is a total Mr Chow moment. Sam is way more then just a damn messenger lets get that right
There’s an actual explanation for why the deceptions have cooler gadgets. It’s because the autobots were originally cybertronian scientists while the deceptions were members of the cybertronian military (led by megatron). Which is why they have cooler gadgets and weapons
I am proud to say this is my favorite movie of all time. I’m from Chicago so I was 12 year old downtown watching the city get blown up filming. Also, this might be one of the greatest trailers of all time
Yeah, Megan Fox had a lot of conflict with Michael Bay on these movies, so she didn't want to come back and they didn't want her back. Unfortunately though, the writers made this movie with Mikaela in mind, but they didn't want to change anything. So the majority of her story was just ported over to this new "Carly" character with only a few lines changed. So her character here doesn't make much sense for where they met and makes more sense for if she was Mikaela. (Working with cars and such)
Heard Miss Fox called Michael Bay Nazi when he directs or something and Spielberg didn't like it. Add* Carly is the name of Spike/Sam's girlfriend/wife in the Old Transformers cartoons, she was also Daniel's mother in the third season of the G1 series
@@BKsunstarmore than a Nazi, she called him being like Hitler and such. Spielberg is Jewish, I think it’s safe to assume that’s something he wouldn’t like to hear
In my opinion, the first 3 are the best ones 4 and 5 are still ok but not as good, 6 (Bumblebee) and 7 (Rise Of The Beasts) are amazing!!! Also Don after you've watched the rest (if you want) I highly recommend the 86 Movie, which is the first ever Transformers movie (thats animated) all the way back in 1986 (hence the name)
So the story in Transformers is that Megan and Sam broke up behind closed doors, but I read something online stating that the reason why Megan wasn't in this was because she said something to someone which got her fired from the set.
I just wanna say I love the transformers movies, at least the first 3. But I wish they followed idw comics, in those comics eventually Megatron has a redemption arc and it is absolutely amazing seeing him become an autobot and completely renounce violence
Fun fact: Did you know that Leonard Nimoy was Bay's cousin-in-law? They met together in a family gathering where Bay's mom told him to cast Nimoy in his next movie which was Transformers 3.
Hey Don, I saw your video reacting to Movies, and I wanted to recommend that you watch the Equalizer movies. The first movie came out in 2014, and the sequel came out in 2018. They're both action thrillers starring Denzel Washington as Robert McCall, a retired black ops agent who now works as a home improvement store employee. McCall is a skilled fighter and tactician, and he's always willing to help those in need. In the first movie, he gets involved with a young prostitute who's being abused by her pimp. In the sequel, he's forced to confront his past when his friend is killed. The Equalizer movies are full of exciting action sequences, but they also have a lot of heart. McCall is a complex and sympathetic character, and he's surrounded by a great supporting cast. I highly recommend checking out both movies. You won't be disappointed! P.S. Don't forget to come back and tell me what you thought of them! Cheers
Since Megan fox quit so unexpectedly they recasted and didn’t bother changing the script in any way, explains why Carly is working in a place with cars. It doesn’t make sense at first as to why she’s even there in a prestigious position but if you imagine Mikayla in Carly’s position it makes a lot more sense just lazy screenwriting. BUT an awesome film and entertaining nonetheless 😂😂 wreckers were the best autobots in the movie
5:06 Megan Fox got fired because of some comments she made about Michael Bay.. so they literally just replaced her with some model and acted like everything is normal😂😂
Don if you want to know more about their planet I recommend watching Transformers the movie 1986 it was part of my childhood and I think you would like it.
About 11:00 that's one of the online things i don't like about this movie. How Sam feels threatened by that guy and Carly just brushes it off. If Sam had a girl boss and they were being all subtly flirtatious, she'd be mad and put a stop tp ot immediately. And yet she completely dismisses any concerns Sam had. She definitely learns her lesson later though m
This came out in 2011, but the CGI is still unbelievably good. Even better than some CGIs today.
Michael Bay was in his bag
FACTS
@@liamdamster
Some more like THEE best CGI in history
This is the best CGI you’ll ever see even to this day and i don’t even like these movies lol
This cgi is better than the new transformers cgi. Kinda unreal
I still remember this being the most anticipated movie of the year at the time, I've never had a theater room so packed like that until Endgame
I played the game that lead into the story too. What a time to be alive
That trailer is one of the greatest of all time
God it was so freakin hype, seeing it in theaters was utterly amazing, I absolutely loved it!
25:02 is the safest part
Megatron saving Optimus from Sentinel might be the most Megatron-like moment in the bay movies. Nobody's allowed to be in charge but him.
I think it is also along the line of "Nobody kill Prime, but me."
@@edwinvanooijen7749Yeah, just like he said in Transformers Prime "Nobody rids me of Optimus Prime but me!"
For me, this is the best transformers movie/series they've ever made, and its not even close
i was gonna say this might of been my fav so far

Age of extinction has a great tone change imo

As much as I love this movie, and as much as I deeply respect Leonard Nimoy, I have an eternal beef with Sentinel Prime for killing Ironhide. Also, how did a falling desk miss Shockwave's head, but a coffee mug hits him?
Because you see the mug isn't attached to the desk
Because the mug fell in the right direction to hit his head while the desk didn't. Obviously.
