The Michael Bay Transformers Series - Caravan of Garbage
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ม.ค. 2023
- Many consider the pincale of Caravan Of Garbage to be when we covered the five Michael Bay Transformers movies. Starting with the 2007 original, then Revenge of the Fallen, Dark Of The Moon, Age Of Extinction and finally whatever the last one was called. Following the adventures of Shia LaBeouf's Witwicky and Megan Fox's Mikaela Banes before transition to Mark Wahlberg's career defining performance as Cade Yeager these films broke us emotionally, physically and spiratually. Two thumbs up we loved it. Thanks for watching and see you back here in early Febuary with new episodes.

#Transformers #MichaelBay #RiseOfTheBeasts #Hasbro - บันเทิง
Fun fact: there was much debate behind the scenes of the first film surrounding Optimus Prime's colours: while he was predominantly red in the original G1 Transformers series, Michael Bay did not want Optimus to be red due to red being a hard colour to photograph on film. Hence, in the Transformers movies Optimus has much more blue on him than previous versions of the character. Nevertheless, it was important for the character designers that his chest still be primarily red, hence the addition of the red flames to his vehicle mode, the layout of which resulted in his robot mode having much more red than the truck.
This resulted in some controversy regarding the red flames, as fans did not like the idea of Optimus branding himself with them. Michael Bay took the backlash in stride, likening the anger fans had regarding the flames to be similar to how farmers would be upset when fires burned away their crops. Thus, he gave the film the working title "Blue Harvest" as a playful jibe, in reference to the red flames "burning away" the blue "harvest" parts of the Optimus truck.
Which funnily enough, was also the working title of the original Sta-
God damn it you got me
God fucking damn it this is the first one that’s properly got me. Im mad that I didn’t realise after you bought undue attention to the blue
I was distracted by thinking about the fact that Optimus Prime has pretty much always been blue and grey outside of his red torso in most of his iterations. I had decided to finish reading your comment to see if you were joking or not. It turns out you were lmao.
Holy hell
I didn't think I could hate someone this much
Thank you for condensing their torture into one easily watchable video for us
I like that "their torture" can refer to James and Maso but also the Decepticons that Optimus brutally kills.
@@Fuzzy_Barbarian It refers to the experience of watching those movies.
There actually good tho
@@Fuzzy_Barbariandon’t forget our actual front line soldier to all this, editor Ben!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Transformers Franchise: "No female robots, we can't explain how robot genders work."
Also Transformers Franchise: "The big guy gets wrecking ball testicles."
They do have female robots such as Arcee and her sisters as shown in revenge of the fallen.
@@Marshkoon
And Alice, who canonically is a fembot.
@@Marshkoon And then they die.
@@pantyosashu8137 it's transformers, the robots get names and 2 lines, then get brutally murdered in a way that would make the film NC-17 on cybertron
@@Marshkoon where were they because I don't remember them at all.
Hugo Weaving didn't say he hated the movies. He said Bay had a distant and clinical directing style, remarking on the fact that he had worked on multiple movies without even really meeting Bay, and Bay was so offended he told him he would never work in Hollywood again, which was unintentionally charming to me, as Weaving overtly prefers working outside of Hollywood.
And still he gets roles in far more iconic movies than Bay can hope to even be a part of.
@@zeppelincraft1443Seriously!
This was perhaps demonstrated best when Cullen expressed dislike for some of the lines he had him saying, and instead of stopping and asking him why and maybe learning more about the character of Prime, he said "just do it". Bay is not a collaborative director.
Sounds like Michael Bay has sum serious ego issues and cant take any kind of criticism. If u can even consider what Hugo said as criticism which if it was it was very minimal. From this and the Megan situation the dude just seems unhinged and like a big cry baby. Glad he isnt a big director in today's landscape and Movies are better for it.
@@grantoden8242 Deficiently creative too it seems.
The "Hijinks with Shia's Parents" part of the first movie was where I figured out that Michael Bay hates me personally, and the feeling is more than mutual.
Ur childish
I feel this so much man. Like what did we do to him
@@ethanspraggins6542 Bay was put on the Earth by Satan as punishment to all humans. His existence is a Biblical sign of the coming apocalypse.
I love that at an hour and 41 minutes this is the shortest transformer film you can watch.
I'd forgotten about it until now, but setting the underage scene discussion to that slow solo drumming part from Whiplash is some straight up genius editing. Hilarious stuff.
BenFromCanada is the GOAT
That's honestly one of the best bits in the channel.
And then the Super Mario 3D World music as soon as they start yelling about it
And the short compilation of arguments that starts playing when the beat picks up more. Genius
@@user-gw3bs2in5i Wow, the actual TH-cam 👍
So you think you can just repackage the same videos and I'm gonna sit here and watch it like it's the first time? Because you're absolutely right.
Preachhh
It actually was the first time for me.
Never seen this channel before. Got recommended a nearly 2 hour video of commentary on the Bay Transformers movies and I said why not.
Two hours... well spent.
I still remember watching these weekly during my break at a shitty warehouse job late at night. These videos gave me life.
It was in the peak of covid I was also working at a warehouse I would listen to these and other COG episodes while I worked
Watching this as a slugged through jobs at uni. Now I’m living comfy working in a hospital oncology lab. How times have changed
Big woooop for that mate
@@marcosfern777 Having a rough day, buddy? Try watching more of these. Might help you relax.
Not me watching them at my shitty warehouse job
I love the sound design, Peter Cullen as Optimus, and Shia screaming every movie
And Linken Park
I'm sure 90% of Shia's lines are just him screaming "OPTIMUS" or "BUBBLEBEE"
@@MasterIceyy’OPTIMUS’, ‘BUMBLEBEE’, and maybe also his love interest’s name depending on the movie.
Who wins?
Shia screaming "Optimus!!"
vs
Finn screaming "Reeey!!!"
@@BH-98 Yes Linkin Park was the theme song
The montage of mark whalberg is one of my favorite things ever it’s even better than the guy yelling Rodney and then melting
If only we could teach Marky Mark to shout “RODNEY!?!?”
Sam’s no noo nooo is even better 😂
I just wanna know who was in the writers room heavily campaigning that all the Transformers use cartwheels as their primary combat style, and I really wanna know how they won.
The whole writers room did a one-day Capoeira workshop through GroupOn.
They were big fans of the lobby scene in The Matrix.
@@eastvandb i was going to make a capoiera joke. ya beat me to it.
@@robertlogan5354
VICTORY!
James' genuine joy from referencing the rat from beast wars, kills me 😂
I respect that the second film didn't just pay lip service to how powerful Optimus is and actually shows us what happens when a Prime breaks out the A1 hands in the forest fight.
It also glossed over the fact that Megatron was allways an Equal to Optimus, and he himself was made as Megatron's anathema.
The slow building drum roll when Mason is ranting about the stupid law scene is just 🤌🤌🤌
I feel like the Transformers (especially the Decepticons) are a lot easier to distinguish in the 1st movie since they have radically different colors, sizes and vehicle modes. Later on they kinda just blend together
An hour and 40 minutes of pure Bay-hem! I love it! 😆
Don’t forget the bay-aos
Hope they do something like this with Roland Emmerich movies
that subtle drumroll is one of the best editing bits in this series, possibly ever
It brings me endless joy every time I remember Peter Cullen is both the quintessential voice of both war-Robot Optimus Prime and squishy sad plushie Eyore (edited)
Naw, he was Eyore.
Jim Cummings is Winnie the Pooh, Peter Cullen is Eeyore
@@kippsryan1 ok I can actually hear it now. Thanks!
Nice reference to Quintessa🥲
Thanks for noticin'...
Don't forget he's also the voice of Ironhide, the eponymous Predator, Monterey Jack from Rescue Rangers, Eddie from the Lou Sheimer Ghostbusters, Venger from Dungeons & Dragons, the narrator from Lion Voltron, and background voices in about a bajillion other animated shows.
Megan Fox should have been the main character. She was the only one who had knowledge of cars, actually had an arc, and felt like she actually changed from the start and at the end.
Makalia mentioned a criminal dad, so Josh Duhamel (army guy) could have been that. He could have had a criminal past turned army dude as redemption for himself and his daughter.
Leave out Sam and his family stupidity and it would have been fine
It’s funny how you can leave our whole chunks of these bloated disasters and they actually become better movies.
@@russellharrell2747 Megan Fox got screwed hard over these movies huh
Michaela Baynes is self insert for Michael bay
Michael(a) Bay(nes)
@@brin1034 I somehow ever noticed that 🤣
Cuz Transformers arc is about bots not about humans..
I know that for us Aussies it's literally impossible to not make jokes that only Aussies will get, but I still appreciate the local references every single time
Nobody outside of Australia will get "Golden Baytime" but you absolute champions did it anyway
I've heard of that ice cream because of the internet. That's one hell of a name.
I’m surprised and glad that Bay hasn’t made an Australian stereotype. Seriously I’m glad the aussies were spared
I still just thought it sounded funny
No matter how terrible, people somehow congregate to watch a Michael Bay movie. It's weirdly, compulsively watchable. There's always someone keen to watch the movie.
...it's hard to have a Baytime on your own.
Kiwis also probably got it, I did. But we're basically east Australia anyway so probably doesn't count
Should I rewatch this ?
Yes. Absolutely yes
56:35 - there is something oddly comforting knowing Michael Bay is normal Hollywood crazy, not creepy sex-pest crazy.
"It's pretty watchable." Most accurate endorsement I've ever heard for TF2007.
I had just re-watch all the Caravan of Garbage for the Transformers, like a week ago. Buuuuuuttt....since they placed them all into 1 video, I guess I'll re-watch them again! You win Mr. Sunday Movies!!!
The "I'll kill you" was the recordings of Peter Cullen shouting at Michael Bay every time he sees a transformers movie cut for the first time.
I sympathize with him tbh
Fun fact: The working title for the original film Blue Harvest was Michael Bay
More like orange and blue harvest, am I right?
Michael Bay got started making commercials. And to this day, it still shows. He has this obsession, this deeply unhealthy need, to fill every second of the screen time in every movie he makes. He smears shit all over the screen, pumps out sound from every direction, moves the camera around so much. His filmmaking is the embodiment of every ADD joke I heard growing up as a kid 3d printed out and shot from multiple angles.
This carries over, and describes every aspect of these films, where thanks to the incredible amount of CG, he had more freedom even over what characters looked like. His storylines are everywhere, and the design of all of the transformers in these films is the textbook definition of not just one term, but many: busy, over-wrought, messy, ugly, and distracting. No one looks like they should, and at a glance, it's just impossible to tell what the fuck you're looking at. There's a lot of cool in the first movie, but the better his career got, and the more freedom he got over these movies as they were made, the worse it all becomes.
You are wrong Michael Bay do not want to make the last 2 transformers movie s (AOE and TLK)
He was pressured by the executive and his freedom was limited in these last 2 movies and they are the worst one of these franchise
@@user-un3ij5ln1e He still chose to come back and make the last 2. If Bay really wanted to stop, he could've just said no and decided not to come back and just let someone else direct these movies but instead did the opposite (after seeing a theme park ride, no less). So he definitely shoulders part of the blame.
@@901Sherman yeah but most of the blame should be on executive who just took away the creative liberty bay have in those first 3 transformer movies
beautifully put, mate.
Considering how much I rewatched these videos separately it’s almost like this video was made for me
OMFG THEY MADE THE ANTHOLOGY ROAST! This was a hilariously dark or darkly hilarious period of the Weekly Planet Caravan of Garbage history 🤣😭
This long compilation is still somehow shorter than every transformers movie
I went to highschool with this girl who told me that this film series was her favorite of all time. I was left speechless and could never understood why THESE movies out of all the movies that exist were her favorite.
Not everyone has good taste
Occasionally I run into someone who's favorite restaurant is Applebee's. I feel the same way.
@@null6634Some people have simple tastes and preferences. Nothing wrong with it. We all like something someone else thinks is terrible 😂
she is one of the "simple folk."
I'm just gonna assume she said that cause she thought that's what boys liked and really, really wanted a boyfriend.
I've watched all these videos already... you think just because you cram them together and upload them all at once I'm going to watch them all over again? Well, do you?! Cause you're bloody right! I'm halfway through already.
I totally agree!!!
So Bay had them pour water on Fox while in a bikini and she was 15, then he made Wahlberg’s daughter 17 and dating a 20yo....
I’m very concerned for the little girl in the 5th movie😳
"No, no , no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no" is the only dialogue I remember from any of these films.
The transformers movies will outlive us all
W
That is the saddest thing I've read all day, and I now dedicate my life to destroying all copies of these movies.
@@whiterabbit75 someone needs to sneak in and burn the original prints of the Bayverse movies. G, Beast Wars, Prime and War for Cybertron forever baby. Those embody the sprit of Transformers Lore. Michael Bay threw out all of the iconic beats between the robot characters that made the other versions so great because Bay decided the source material was too comic booky and would alienate the public unless it was more grounded and focused more on humans with everyday problems. They think these normies need to see themselves in Sam Witwhicky. Look Spike was the character that could be us but we don't need the entire story to be about this teen comedy / political thriller/ military drama with special guest appearances by the Transformers.
I love how the decepticpns in 1 and 5 are polar opposites
In the first movie they are a clear threat, i mean you have blackout wiping out the base at the start, brawl being an absolute unit taking shots for like half an hour and just not dying. You have barricade being genuinely scary at the start. Scorpononk gets hit by a fuckin air strike and is fine after almost killing the qatar base survivors. Starscream taking out the air force + knocking both ratchet and ironhide down at once and of course megatron completely shitting on jazz and almost killing optimus.
Then you have the last knight decepticons who... are goofy and... die.
finally i can do my monthly binge of these videos without having to individually click through them. thanks a lot 👍
Sometimes, when I'm by myself, I do a touchdown for America.
Amen brother
for america
Funny enough, when I saw Dark Side of the Moon for the first time and Alen Tudyk went full killer in the bar and the line "That's the old you" was spoken, I actually thought of his role as Alpha in Dollhouse series (which I'd seen for the first time just prior to this.) And his phyco-killer face and mannerisms in that moment mirrored his Alpha character so perfectly, that I thought it was a purposeful reference. Much how Nathan Fillion was constantly dropping cheeky Firefly references in his TV show Castle.
It's remarkable to me how hard nostalgia kicked in for the people who liked these movies that all of a sudden you have droves of Bay fans lamenting that Bumblebee and the new movies aren't meeting the "tremendous" standards of these films. And then you look back at them, and you genuinely have to wonder "how in good faith can anyone watch this shit and then walk away from it thinking they're legitimately good movies?"
I think there are good things in these movies that the new ones are missing like the amazing CGI and crazy energy. But they are stupid, nonsensical and poorly passed so, not a lot to miss here.
an hour and forty-one minutes of pure, unadulterated, bliss
I'm glad they kept Peter Cullen as Optimus and got Frank Welker back as Megatron also these videos were great
Honestly speaking, the first film for its amazing effects, sound design, action, etc. and most importantly brining the franchise to the big screens did quite an amazing job that was entertaining and not a bad film by any means. As a kid when it was released I highly enjoyed the first film but after that it was just downhill from there but the first film still deserves a lot of credit for groundbreaking things it did especially in terms of VFX
Transformers 1 actually goes pretty quick for me, it seems like it doesn’t take long to get to the final battle. I can’t say the same for the others sadly
I will say, I've seen Age of Extinction twice. First because I'd heard it was bad, and the second because my wife didn't believe it was that bad.
I left with a headache both times. I just assume my brain was trying to turn itself off to save itself
Butthurts who can't even think to watch a fun movie because it's "too dumb"
Yeah, there is no explanation for why this film and the Last Knight was soooo Bad!
Actually, we got plenty of explanation for that bullshit!
"This movie is bad because it gave me a headache". Top notch critique.
lol ur brain tried to self terminate
I love the "GIVE ME YOUR FACE!!!!" line.
Finally, listen to these regularly. Their slow decent Into madness is enjoyable
Rewatch your big series' in the form of these omnibus videos have been brilliant. I love rediscovering old jokes I've forgetting and experiencing absolutely classics like the "Romeo and Juliet clause" bit.
You are truly great at making content, Mr Mr Sunday Movies
52:36 “He’s just a Lunatic” Really got me 😂
1:33:30 That made me watch the film for Cogman alone. I love a weird robot. And he was great.
Let’s have Peter Cullen and Frank Welker direct a transformers movie.... they’re getting older and If they had control I’d really like to see what that could be...
"I have a specific set of skills: I can turn into a truck!" 😂
The idea of him doing a Mr Incredible "I've got time" at 01:16:29 is utterly hysterical to me for some reason.
I always felt that the reason optomus is so violent is signs of ptsd and signs of what the war has done to him. It always made the transformers were more living than just robots.
But they don't DO anything with that. His character just resets at the end of each movie. Literally in Last Knights case.
The first movie was the only one I tried to watch. I was pretty invested in the alien mystery... until the aliens appeared and started rapping around like teens. I was so, so disappointed at that moment, you should have seen my face. I turned it off, I never watched another Transformers movie, and I feel that my life has been better for it.
When tf they started rapping? I watch all of the bay transformers movie and none of it rapping.
Just watched them all and came here they rapped in none of them lol
DOTM was good tho
@@syedmohammedayaan4435 3 is my favourite and I enjoyed 1-4 but 5 was bad only liked the parts where I could see the transformers
@@buff5081 5 did so much right like get rid of stupid girlfriends, show cybetron, make optimus evil etc etc, and still fucked up cause of weird stupidity
Everytime I see one of M.Bay Transformers movie in theaters I am always like "WTF is going on!?". It's like no different than watch TV static.
Then why do you keep seeing them in theatre?
The lack of Green Trivia in this video is jarring. I can't comprehend a time before Rodney and Blue Harvest.
Makes me miss the days when the humour was funny. You new fans fucked it for the rest of us.
31:48 had me dead.
“Who’s going to stop them? The Jordanians??” was perfection
The most excruciating cinema experiences I’ve ever had. Each time. I loved them as a kid, and an adult. Just not these awful awful movies
They were not getting me back there after the first one. I fell asleep in the theater. It was a pretty noisy movie but I was tired and did not connect with the story at all. Falling asleep was the best part.
I loved these movies as a kid as well, it’s how I discovered the franchise I love to this day. Seeing them in theaters was a amazing as a kid. But yeah I can’t say I love or even really like these movie today (TF1 and DOTM are the best of the Bayverse though). TLK was legit one of the worst movies I’ve seen (even Bayverse fans hate it). But I still think they have great moments in and designs I really like in them. So I’ll still be buying toys from them. But even when the films are bad I’ll still be there to see them (ROTB, animated 2024 film) because I love this franchise so much.
Maso: What’s the opposite of Transformers movie?
Madman: Marriage Story
My friend and I walked out on Transformers 2 in theaters right after they teleported to Egypt, in favor of doing absolutely anything else, haven't seen any since, no regrets
Heck yh! Love this version of transformers with all my heart but I also love these videos on them. It's a great laugh and they're what brought me to the channel.
I think the Transformers series drove you two mad enough and produce some of your best banter. The Mission impossible series too especially the first one. But your commentary for each Transformers movie is just 100% funny talking points that sums up Caravan of Garbage to a tee.
You described the series perfectly in the first 5 min. I could never put it into words this series and the MCU. They are Exhausting. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy them, but there are always 20 things happening at one time.. Thanks for an awesome video.
This is so much better than suffering through the actual films.
For the fifth movie especially, this is just James and Maso explaining what was in the movie and it’s HILARIOUS!
I like how Mark Wahlberg is just in the shadows of 3 of these movies getting ready to go even more ridiculous 😭
- Ben, which compilation do you wanna do?
- No, no, nononono!
- Ok, that works!
Best thing about Dark of the Moon is the use of the Milwaukee Art Museum. The inside looks so much bigger on screen than in reality!
Never thought of the Dino bots like that but Optimus really was wilding
I’ve been waiting on this compilation for such a long time, but now that it’s in front of me I’m not sure I’m ready
This vid is wild. It hits all the 'well that did suck' notes while showing full respect to all involved. Hits weird. ...better subscribe just in case.
49:26 It’s wild that Patrick Dempsey got hired the day before this considering the exact same thing happened when he got hired for Scream 3 😬
I like how heavy the car sized transformers are. They're clunky and kinda slow and there's weight to their movement.
Mark Wahlberg visibly scared of the acetylene torch is one of the funniest things they’ve ever kept in a movie. Then he adjusts the universal choke but doesn’t actually properly adjust his gas to air mix, it’s perfect
Also need a Megan Fox “you know what?…” compilation. She sort of improvs it into a lot of her lines in the movie. 13:30
We love and appreciate ya Ben, keep up the awesome work man. 💯👌🏾
np will do ✌👍
Sometimes life is hard and you don’t know how things are going to turn out but every now and then you get to take sadistic pleasure from watching two mates go slowly insane watching movies about talking cars
Funny thing too, is that being down is also called the blues, and harvesting joy from times when your down is where the term “blue harvest” comes from
To this day I am always confused when opening scene drumroll from Whiplash is edited into the part of this video where james and mason are explaining the Irish legal pedo scene. Just the most random use of a piece of music Ive ever recognised. I love it.
One thing that I've noticed in the first film is that Barricade is never killed off and just disappears
Lindsey Ellis said once in her Transformers 2007 video that it was very easy to forget the events of these movies because your brain just stops processing all the shit. Did bumblebee pee on a guy? I can’t remember but I guess it happened.
Yeah? What's she doing now? Drinking herself to death and being salty that white men exist?
@@charlesplante eh, maybe. I don’t care enough to follow the exploits of the former Nostalgia Chick after she showed she couldn’t take the same shit that every other semi-popular YTer has to endure.
@@russellharrell2747 Her video essays are well worth a watch, and then a rewatch: They're perceptive, funny, and engaging, and I strongly recommend them to anyone.
He did pee on a guy... there was no reason for it, it just happened and it was dumb and pointless and I hated it.
Did you know that that highway scene in Dark of the Moon also includes several shots taken directly from Michael Bay's The Island of Clones From Which Black Widow and Obi Wan Escape. Recolored and added some Transformers but even the cars flipping and crashing in the background are taken from The Island.
14:22 'This looks like a cool place to kick it!"
- I've NEVER forgotten that lame line!
It's SUUUCH an eyeroll moment !
Really enjoying this compilation. More of these please.
Every once in a while I watch this video just because I can
24:40 rewatching this because watching media dissecting the bayformers movies is infinitely more interesting than just watching them, and this is perhaps still the best james soundbite out there he puts so much emotion into it
I feel really bad for the extra who got brain damage for dark side of the moon because she must have gotten even more brain damage after watching the actual movie.
She had brain damage, she probably loved the film
@@lucasoheyze4597 LOL
@@lucasoheyze4597 so because i like a movie i have brain damage? Thats messed up bro
@@janejanebobanebananafannaf2522 we don't think its good you got brain damage, we're on your side mate. it IS messed up!
just thinking about the Transformers movie makes me mentally exhausted, this is a treat
I come back to this weekly. Endlessly entertaining
I love that they mention the bad math with the Megatron resurrect scene - it always bothered me because I caught it immediately but no one who edited the movie did???
I completely agree with everything that you said regarding Mark Walberg.
These are the videos that got me hooked on these guys.
Ganging all these together is just a demonstration that BEN FROM CANADA IS A GENIUS!
My personal favorite (though not a catchphrase in the movie) is “I’m going to throw up, and then we’re gonna die” from Jim Carry’s Grinch. That whole clip sums up a great deal of my anxiety
And then that bit about “we’re gonna die” catchphrases was followed by a clip that actually made me feel sick. What climbed into Shia Leboeuf’s mouth?
I didn't mean to watch the whole thing (especially after I already watched these individually), but I couldn't stop...
More like "Transformers 4: Age of Consent", am I right?
That fantasy movie idea about the girl who discoverers she's a descendant of Merlin sounds awesome. I love would've liked that movie. The first time I saw this transformers movie, I almost threw my laptop against the wall.
"It was a cartoon?"
What great timing.
A correction, Lockdown came from Transformers Animated first.
