The 2007 transformers movie that started the Bayverse definitely makes you feel like the Bumblebee movie fits in somewhere seeing that Bee ends up hitting his used to be alt mode outta hatred that got me chuckling.
On terms of visuals, actors, score, location, practical effects, cgi, runtime, box office, familiarity, introduction, goofy but memorable plots, marketing, vehicles, i mean cmon all the prequels serious lack in comparison to the first five.
I honestly dig all of them to various degrees except for The Last Knight which is just a disastrous piece of garbage despite it's excellent score and visuals..
Having watched all the movies, I would say I have the same ranking as yours except 1 and 2, I kinda shuffled between these two. But yeah, always comeback to these two movies whenever I want to rewatch the Thransformers live actions.
Bayverse kinda destroyed the perception of the franchise towards the fans and general audiences, now don't get me wrong, it's what got the new generation into the series and they're honestly fun films to watch. But at a critical standpoint, they're objectively awful written films. 2007 and DOTM were probably the only good films he's directed for the franchise, ROTF was fine but it didn't have much direction as the first one. AOE was fun but was painstakingly long, too serious, and tried to justify having relations with a minor, TLK is the worst of the barrel because of how much it retconned the lore of the first 3 films. I really don't understand people who praise the entirety of the Bay films, a decade ago, people hated these films and now they act like they're the definition of peak fiction when it only had 2 good entries.
DampedPopeye have you watch talon productions video about bayverse Optimus prime and why he was justified for killing megatron and sentinel prime. Prime is not a war criminal he’s a war hero.
To be honest i love all 5 transformers movies including the 2 preboot movies (the bumblebee movie and Rise of the Beasts) but i wish Michael Bay made a 6th one. (witch could have been the final installment)
I mean I get it I was curious with what Bay would do with a 6th movie considering last knight was nothing more than a set up movie but I guess will never know
We have pretty similar opinions except for few I never saw or care to saw animated stuff, first life-action movie was my introduction to the Transformers and its probably stays like that. My ranking but without Rise of the Beast because I didn't saw it and I don't really care about it. Last Knight (Yes its sucks but at least was more enjoyable to watch then previous one but still fuck this *2/10*) Age of Extinction (This movie killed the franchise for me just over 2 hours wheel-spinning *3/10*) Dark of the Moon (This movie is heavily carried by the third act everything before is just boring *5/10*) Revenge of the Fallen (Yeah I know is bad but is kinda guilty pleasure of mine and there are pieces that are pretty good like the Forest Fight, Pyramid Fight, I also love the soundtrack and the romantic stuff between Sam and Mikaela are pretty good but the rest is bad *5/10*) Bumblebee (What a surprise this movie is step up from the rest *7/10*) Transformers (Still the best one in the series have everything that live-action TF movies must have *9/10*)
@@DampedPopeye12 I agree with your ranking but how I would rank 1. "Bumblebee" (2018) 2. "Transformers" (2007) 3. "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts" (2023) 4.

Your top 2 is 1. "Transformers" (2007) 2. "Bumblebee" (2018) It turns out that producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura told the writers of each film not to worry about contiunity in a way of freestyling it.

Yeah I probably should've put something in the video because there is something to admire with each of the films minus last knight
Short answer no

Yeah there typically the ones I watch when I wanna just casually watch transformers

Yeah the Bay movies aren't high class art but I agree that 2007 and DOTM were definitely the only good ones that came from the Bayverse
I think 1 & 3 are the beat ones of the bayverse, then Bumblebee but there's only 3 that are decent/good.
Couldn't agree more

No but I'll have to check that out
It's so oblivious he isn't, but I guess that doesn't bring in the views 🤷
DID YOU JUST SAY REVENGE OF THE FALLEN IS BAD NAH IM COMING FOR YOU
Oh no I'm quaking in my boots 👢

Dark of the Moon (This movie is heavily carried by the third act everything before is just boring *5/10*)
