Hi.
Oh Yeah!
After seeing the movie, I know its from a different continuity, but Megatron's line "we were brothers once" with Optimus replying "once", hits even deeper and holds more meaning now.
How does it being a different continuity affect it?
@@hideyawives Because in some continuities (like the G1 cartoon) they barely knew eachother.
New "he's my friend" "so was i"
@@javiervasquez625 In G1 cartoon, Megatron just shot Orion Pax who's in his way which in turn Alpha Trion rebuilt Orion into Optimus Prime.
@@hideyawivesevery continuity has its own history, and in the original cartoon, Optimus and Megatron were never close before the war
Optimus Prime’s speeches are so moving he could convince a high school basketball team they could beat the Lakers
Without lebron they probably can
To swing for the LA lakers
The Origin Story of How Former Best Friends, Colleges, Amigos and Comrades in Arms, now turned Longtime Archenemies, Rivals, Worthy Opponents and Worthy Adversaries: Optimus Prime of the Autobots and Megatron of the Decepticons, of the *Transformers* franchises
Optimus Prime: Transform and ROLL OUT!!!
Megatron: Transform and RISE UP!!!
Spider-Man is better (I know your weakness)
@@FatKratos69 TF does Spider-man have to do with Transformers???
@@theoutlawking9123 Spider-Man da 🐐
@@FatKratos69 Spider-man's a Pansy, F him!
@@theoutlawking9123 RISE UP! RISE UP! RISE UP!
Orion Pax & Megatronus both wished to end corruption & bring equality to Cybertron, but were torn apart by their methods, Orion sought arbitration, believing peaceful reform was possible, but Megatronus (who shortened his name to Megatron) sought violent revolution, believing it to be the only course of action against Sentinel Prime’s corrupt government.
In some continuities (like the G1 cartoon) it was due to the Decepticons been part of the gladiatorial brand of Transformers created by the Quintessons while the Autobots were the factory worker brand.
@@javiervasquez625 The Decepticons literally chose violence in a nutshell.
11:45 Uuuhhh…. I’m sorry, did I miss something?! Megatron is posing for The Killing Joke!!
TFP had the best origin story.
Orion Pax as a librarian while D-16 as a gladiator.
One shall stand... one shall fall.
And yet, they've been fighting eachother endlessly across multiple continuities and timelines.
@@javiervasquez625 Like Batman and Joker
You forgot to mention that Megatrons first alt mode was a gun.
True, but not as cool as a tank.
G1 TF Optimus Prime Origin is still epic..
I really enjoyed the new movie.
Im glad they had a balance of seriousness and jokes.
But it’s a cool refresh to the the origins of these factions
So Optimus Prime basically is the original robot cop 😂😂
Honestly i love megatron especially in the movie when the dude jumps and transforms into a freaking jet 🔥🔥💀💀
“You still fight for the weak and that’s why you lose” - Megatron
I've been reading the Enegeronverse books recently. There is something so special about giant robots hitting each other with wrestling moves.
Can you do the history of magneto, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen please
“I could say this in another way but I don’t wanna” god, pls protect this man 😂👌
6:05 TF prime had the best origin of optimus and magatron
The Transformers: Prime introduction narrated by Ratchet (Jeffrey Coombs) is still one of the best depictions of the origins of Orion Pax/Megatronus and how the two leaders came to be. It also sounds god tier epic and inspires hope when you hear the story. I hope Transformers One faithfully captures the awe, wisdom and cunning of how Optimus and Megatron came to be.
Arris… this MeUndies ad was.. just.. 😂😂
If you think about it Optimus and Megatron are like Professor X and Magneto.
'TRANSFORMERS .. ROBOTS IN DISGUISE' ..
My favourite origin for them is the Marvel one where they are gladiatorial rivals.
How many of you remember seeing Optimus Prime and Megatron fighting alongside each other in the Transformers Earthspark show?
Please do an origin story on the Dinobots and the Beast Wars. Neither of which EVER get enough or even PROPER credit. Especially in the recent years, with Age of Extinction and Rise of the Beasts
I loved the movie, especially the “ u don’t have the touch, and certainly not the power” line
These two have the most iconic rivalry.
They have the most pointless rivalry no real back story, just stories thrown in the air by whoever decides to make a movie, carton etc.
@@rohit65132blame Hashbro for not letting any seties have a proper ending because yhey still chase selling toys to kids. However you can't deny the potential of this franchise
@@rohit65132 Like Batman and Joker.
I'd say 2nd to scorpion and sub zero
Autobots roll out
What you ain't got to talk about Galvatron basically the same guy just different form and name
Soundwave and Hot Shot next
This was a great summary! Much better then just reading the words that already on the comics themselves
Cant wait for more great content from this channel!
When are we ever going to see a History Of Sailor Moon episode?
you’re asking a comic channel to cover manga 😭
god i'd love a video just covering different transformers comic continuities cuz there just isn't alot channels that cover transformers comics
Important to note that the Aerialbots were from the present day of the show , newly created and doubting the ideals of the autobots and if fighting was really right thing to do, somewhere they got sent to the past, met Orian Pax and Megatron there and only after witnessing those events they decided that the Autobots were doing the right thing and were loyal to the cause from there
All while causing a time paradox by been the ones responsible for creating Optimus Prime in the first place.
Friends becoming Bitter Enemies are becoming a real Tired Trope. Making them friends doesn't make this deep, they don't need to have a connection and it doesn't have to be a revenge tale
Are Optimus Prime and Megatron like two sides of a coin with each of them having different ideology?
I was never a fan of Optimus and Megatron being friends once. But, I am looking forward to this movie!
Powers and abilities: Optimus Prime is voiced by Peter Cullen. Major power boost!
Who could believe that two friends became bitter enemies? Who all could relate to Optimus Prime and Megatron?
I hope to see Transformers One soon, as I heard it is a really good movie. 🍿
For me, the G1 80s cartoon origin is my favorite. I saw Tramsformers one twice on the same day & loved it 💖😍💙💜👍👍 & can't wait to see your review of the movie.
Would you want to be an Autobot or a Decepticon
Autobot
I grew up in the 80s; so, War Dawn is the official origin of Optimus Prime.
I don't want Prime and Megatron to be friends.
But like Godzilla, I have to accept there are different versions/incarnations, and they can be different, but still exist without forcing all of them to be in a single universe.
perfection!
I think Transformers One is taking more from the IDW origin for Megatron with him and Orion being miners and part of Cybertron's lower class and mixing in a little from the Prime cartoon.
also, you said Iacon wrong, it's an "I" not and "L", and I got my hands on a copy of Astonishing Times.
Can you do history of Cyclone, Rhino, Sandman, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Kurt Connors the Lizard. Also can you do the history of the Flash Villains like Turtle, Magenta, Cobalt Blue, Mirror Master and Top?
War Dawn is the only true origin.
FINALLY!!!!
The transformers exodus novel goes into more detail on their origins, as its revealed that Alpha Trion was one of the 13 Original primes and he can glimpse into the future and the past. He petitioned for Orion and Megatron to meet with the high council and at the high council meeting, Megatron and Orion both give their excellent speeches to sway all who listened. Megatron killed the head of the council and declared war upon them once they had deemed Orion the next prime. After that it jumps to several battles of the war for cybertron and we get different perspectives from different characters on both sides. It's actually an excellent read. 😌👍
I ❤ transformers, my son collects them and now my grandson loves them too.❤
Megatron is a Walther P38 and should never be anything else.
At the end of this day, one shall stand...one shall fall....
Great Video Dude, I’m Gonna Go See The New Transformers Film With My Dad On Sunday This Weekend. 👍❤️🤩❤️🙌❤️🥳❤️👏
Can you do history of DC Despero since he is one of the biggest Justice League Villians from the Comics?
Since you did history of Marvel's Black Knight, Can you do history of Marvel's Dreadknight?
If you seen the episodes of season 7 of the Flash, can you do history of Impulse, XS, Psych, Fuerza, Steadfast, Chillblaine, Abracadabra, Rainbow Raider, Mirror Master and Top in your next video?
Are you going to do history of the Supreme Intelligence, Ronan the Accuser, Dar-Benn and Ael-Dan who all played a major role in The Marvels movie?
Are you going to do history of Jentorra, Kryler(played by Bill Murray), Multiple Man, Cassie Lang as Stature/Stinger and the city of Chronopolis in honour of the Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumainia movie?
For the record, I love Michael Bay's transformers movies, which made me love transformers to begin with. 👍
You guys showed some of the wrong versions of war for Cybertron and robots in disguise, which it’s understandable because those titles have been used for multiple different things in transformers media
I’ll can’t wait to see this film. Except I’m from the UK and I have to wait until October.
You guys used a lot of the wrong Transformers posters when talking about the Aligned Continuity
I love megatrons G1 form!!!
Millennia doesn’t mean million it means 1,000. They fought for thousands of years not millions.
I didn't know about most of the facts mentioned in this about both Prime and Megatron. But, I enjoyed learning more about them and getting a bit of a refresher on the stuff that I already knew. Also, I'm not completely sure if I will watch Transformers One in theaters, but I plan on seeing it at some point.
Can you please do history of DC OMAC along with the Reach who are the aliens who created the Scarabs in honor of the release of the Blue_Beetle movie?
Legendary
What was the best thing about Optimus Prime and Megatron when they made their debut in the first live action movie?
Keep up the great work guys!
enerjon ? its ENERGON like energy no ? it makes sense i dont care if you think otherwise you re simply wrong.. lol enerjon
Could you make a history of blackheart, please 🙏?
Finna name my son's Optimus and Megatron.
😂
Are Peter Cullen and Frank Welker the best voice actors for Optimus Prime and Megatron? Who do you think is the best voice actors for them from all the shows and games also do you think Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry going nail the role of them?
I saw it once and will see TF1 again.
Nice!
What do you think is the best thing about Optimus Prime and Megatron also which one of their powers and abilities do you think is the best? Which transformers media do you think did a great job in portraying them?
Origin of Soundwave?
Should of just done the Netflix series looks so much better gen 1 designs
🐐
I have no desire to Transformers one. All I’ve seen and heard about the film, it’s a heavy departure from the norm.
😎
👌🏿
They were lovers in the comics?
No
That’s one crusty thumbnail lmao
Within the first 700 views
$28 for underwear no thank you
V
Unfortunately Transformers one wasn't too good in my opinion and you guys have about 80% of the origin story correct with the movie
First !!
First
Almost!
First 😅
Bam!
Transformers is too geeky even for me, a nerd
The new movie looks like a joke, won’t be watching it
It’s definitely not a joke. Simple maybe, as it’s intended for children, but it still has a compelling story for all ages.
You're missing it out.
I thought the same.
It's fantastic
only one that despised the 1:30 ad break?
2:15 That's the wrong robots in disguise. There are 3.
The comic run which takes place within the IDW comic's IDW 1.0 universe, which is what the image you provided is of.
RID 2001, the dubbed version of the anime Car Robots.
And RID 2015, an extremely disappointing sequel to Prime that spits on it's grave.
There are also RID2015 comics and a RID2015 mobile game but nobody really cares about them.
