    Jazz has the best commercial break animation tbh. It just oozes so much of his personality.
    It's honestly criminal that Jazz hasn't been pushed as much in TF modern media. Dude's got such a cool and likeable personality that's it's impossible to dislike him. Even in they Bay movies, many agree that he was killed off way too early. Still I'd imagine he's just as dangerous that you wouldn't imagine due to his chill personality, he is a special op saboteur after all.

    Jazz is one of the main character who's personality hasn't changed since G1. Not only that his voice actors throught out the years give Jazz a cool and earth loving culture. I hope he appears in Rise of the beasts sequel in which we would get him to transform into a Porsche.

      Sometimes I say to myself "Damn, I wish a different Autobot was included in the movie to take the bullet for Jazz" and then I realize that this franchise is so big and long-lived that adding a different character that wasn't a completely new one would have just shifted this feeling to thepeople who like THAT bot, idk I just wish we spent more time with Jazz in the Bayverse and stuff... I also wish the Bayverse had better character writing and we actually got to know the autobots better but that's besides the point.

    In my Transformers audio drama, I have Jazz included in the main cast of Autobots. I personally see him as the heart and soul of the team, and I use his reveal the shield figure as his model.
    His personality is similar to that of G1, and he's always positive and optimistic in almost every situation. He loves to crack a joke every so often, can use his speakers to his advantage if the situation calls for it, and enjoys spending time around humans, studying their culture.

I grew up with the bayverse and I felt his death in the live action film was totally criminal and lack of potential/character development they never mentioned him again or thought of bringing him back with the shard of the allspark. Even for ROTB I thought that was just a crime in plain slight don't get me wrong I loved mirage but still have issue with him having the alt mode of an iconic character.

    My favorite Autobot of them all.
    When I was a little kid in the early 1990s, Jazz's G2 figure (essential a G1 reissue with new decals and a GI Joe missile launching weapon) was my first Transformers figure ever. However, it was the G2 "series" (which were just a bunch of select episodes from the original G1 cartoon with special effects) that made me a bigger fan of Jazz. Other than Scatman Crothers's talented voice (RIP), I like Jazz's hip, cool, chilled, and friendly personality; a laidback Autobot who loves Earth culture and music, yet is also a reliable and effective soldier to the Autobot cause.

    Hi Rodimus great video about Jazz Retrospective- The Autobot WHO Does EVERYTHING With Style, Keep them coming, Also this video is a remaster of the original video "What Happened to Jazz?" that was published in March 30,2019. Also your previous video was magnificent, Also Jazz is not only one of the most popular Transformers ever, not only one of my favorite Autobots of all time, not only one of my favorite Transformers Heroes, not only one of my favorite popular Autobots ever, but also Jazz is The Autobot who is easily the coolest cat around is none other than Jazz! With his souped up sound system, he can dazzle many with his sound and light show! Jazz is also (as of 2023): Optimus Prime's Right Hand man! Also my favorite Version of Jazz is the G1 Cartoon/ Comic Version Allegiance:(as of 2023):Autobot,Function:(as of 2023):Special Operations Saboteur, First Appearance:(Comic Version): Transformers(1st series)#1(1984),(Cartoon Version): Allegiance:(as of 2023): Autobot, Function:(as of 2023): Special Operations Saboteur, First Appearance:(Cartoon Version): More Than Meets The Eye(1984) Also in The Original G1 Cartoon Continuity, and (as of 2023): Jazz still does everything in style Jazz is also(as of 2023): As a Lieutenant to Optimus Prime, Also in Wings Universe Jazz was part of the new Autobot military created to be led by Optimus Prime by The Autobot High Council, Jazz was also promoted to Autobot City Commander by Obsidian on Cybertron, Also Jazz is An admirer of Earth music of every kind, Jazz loves culture. More than most other Autobots, he has his finger on the pulse of Earth trends and lingo, effortlessly incorporating human slang into his vocabulary. Chances are Jazz could tell you the status of almost any reailty television show and each week Top 40 list. Also Jazz is Optimus Prime's right-hand man. Unlike Prowl, Prime's military strategist, Jazz responds well to change and improvisation. Whatever suprises the Decepticons spring,Jazz can and will deal with it. His position as Special Operations head calls for all the skills he possesses, Yet he still has time to add some style to everything he does. Jazz's upbeat and outgoing personality makes him one of the popular Autobots among the Ark's crew.Jazz(G1Cartoon Version) is also one of the Original members of Optimus Prime's crew when their ship crash landed on Earth. As such Jazz particpated in many of the most important battles between The Autobots and The Deceptions throughout the 1980's. Jazz could still be recognized by his love of music,his friendly nature, and his incredibly cool voice and disposition, Also the following information is from Transformers More Than Meets The Eye(limited, Maxi-series)#3(July,2003) & 7(November,2003), issue(limited maxi-series)#3(july,2003) Allegiance:(as of 2023): Autobot, Primary Function:(as of 2023). Special Operations Agent, Weapons and Abilities:(as of 2023): Jazz is extremely intelligent and skilled he is an expert in sociology,history and culture, In robot mode he wields a photon rifle and shoulder- mounted flamethrower. In vehicle mode he has a full-spectrum beacon and powerful speakers that can create a disorienting light and sound display that reaches 180 decibels in volume Transformation/Altegnate Mode:(as of 2023): IMSA GT Porsche935 Turbo mode/Sports Car, Issue(limited maxi-series)#7(of)8(november,2003), Jazz Allegiance:(as of 2023):Autobot, Primary Function:(as of 2023):Special Operations Saboteur, Pretender Shell Jazz is not only the coolest Autobot i know, but Also Jazz is one of the top operatives under Prime's command Jazz's got espionage skills,His Pretender shell is armed with a semi- automatic pulse rifle and deflector shields mounted on each forearm. Without his Shell Jazz's vehicle mode still has all of its original abilities inculding a powerful light and sound display . His Top speed's been boosted up to a pretty impressive Mach 1, and his windows can gather solar energy for added power. He can use a photon rifle in both robot and vehicle modes. His robot mode's legs were fitted witg hydraulic lifters that give him increased jumping abilities like Springer, Alternate Mode/Transformation(as of 2023):Sports Car, Also The G1 Jazz voiced by Scatman Crothers will always be his best incarnation.,Also Phil Lamar was awesome as Jazz in animated. Also Arif S. Kinchen was superb as Jazz in Transformers Robots In Disguise(2015), Jazz still got such a cool and likeable personality, and due to his chill personality, he is a special op Saboteur after all.Jazz is also one of the most awesome characters in the whole franchise. His G1 version will always be the best, and once again great video, Also Jazz is always be the coolest and one of the best autobots. Still G1 Jazz will never be forgotten. Also Another excellent but superb Retrospective my friend keep up the good work. Also G1 Jazz will always be the best. Awesome but wonderful job on remastering Jazz.👍😎, Also thank you for sharing Rodimus and even though you're Asleep keep up the good work stay safe out there in Florida, have a goodnight, and until next time TILL ALL ARE ONE.🙂🟢🔵🦸😎👍🌆🇺🇲✌️💪 12:39 am.

    My favorite version -even over the studio series 86- has to be the “reveal the shield” Jazz from the Robots in Disguise mainline. He’s absolutely perfect and even has great weapon storage, modern joints and speakers that hide away to flip out from his wings, totally awesome 🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽🤌🏽

    a awesome review. Jazz has always been one of my favorite autobots from G1 Next to optimuse prime and ironhide. I always loved him as g1 and voiced by the late great Scatman chrothers. i was really hoping that he was in rise of the beasts but we all know what happend to that dream (lol). but i enjoyed the movie and jazz is one of my all time favorite autobots.

    Very 1st tf comic i had was the Man of iron which featured Jazz as a main chracter....it was from the uk and written by Mike Collins as opposed to Simon Furman....and if memory serves me correct it wasnt even a marvel uk production but rather by Fleetway publising....another uk comics company.....and the tfs were drawn to look exactly like the toys

    No doubt Jazz is the coolest Character in the Transformers. [ Also ] I believe the announcer ( from Season 3 ) must of calling another event ( Although that name itself is something that Beavis & Butt-Head would call someone just for laughs ).

  • @captainfantastic9158
    @captainfantastic9158 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Primarily because of admiration for Scatman Crothers (hey, we all loved Hong Kong Phooey back in the day!), Jazz was briefly my favourite Autobot. He was soon superseded by his lieutenant buddy Prowl, but Jazz had the lock on the number two position and still does to this day.
    I think the closest Jazz got to a spotlight episode was "Attack Of The Autobots." Despite Ratchet and Sparkplug bickering about who saved the day, it was who Jazz knocked Blue Streak back to his senses, then restabilized Ratchet and Hound, then transformed ON TOP of Skyfire to deliver a musical sonic boom to the Decepticon rocket! And of course, he co-starred with Perceptor in "The God Gambit."
    As mah bot sez, "Do it with style or don't bother doing it!"

    Jazz is definitely a fan favorite as he’s just fantastic in Transformers G1 and it was cool he appeared in other Transformers shows and movies such as Transformers 2007 movie and Transformers Animated. It’s a shame he wasn’t in The War For Cybertron Trilogy on Netflix, but at least he was in the War for Cybertron games.
    Definitely a fantastic character and one that is definitely a fan favorite!

      No, his personality is like G1 Mirage. In the making of ROTB, they said Mirage’s personally was based on his G1 incarnation: who lived a rich, privileged life on Cybertron then adopted human culture by being on Earth for 7 years.
