      There are problems with it though. Optimus was altered and not quite right, he's supposed to be a protector of the innocent, yet he only protects Sam....he lets every other human die. Doesn't even order the Autobots to help the humans and save their lives. Which is not accurate to the lore of the franchise.

Optimus is a protector yes, but he's also pragmatic. He knows full well that he can't be everywhere at once. The best way to protect the most humans possible is to guard Sam and find the all spark. It wouldn't be reasonable to expect him to just make his presence known constantly saving every human that's in danger from anything.

    4:10 That was Scorponok. Normally, Scorponok is a regular, full-sized Decepticon. But here they made him basically a Mini-Con for Blackout.
    14:35 The chain wasn't actually supposed to break from the wall, and Shia actually outran the dogs.
    25:00 Those are Protoforms. It's the natural/default form for Cybertronians. They don't obtain an Alt. Mode until they scan a vehicle.
    25:20 If you didn't notice by now, this movie was heavily bankrolled by General Motors.
    26:30 If you somehow didn't know, Optimus Prime here is voiced by Peter Cullen, who voiced Optimus Prime in the original 1984 anime's "The Transformers" (aka. Generation 1) English dub. He has voiced Optimus Prime in pretty much every Transformers project since the Michael Bay movies (with few exceptions). Megatron is voiced by Hugo Weaving (best known for portraying Elrond in the Lord of the Rings movies, Agent Smith in the Matrix movies, and Red Skull in the MCU pre-Endgame).
    27:30 The objective history of Cybertron is that it was a caste-based society (ie. your social class was determined by what you were born into, so a lower class individual could never climb the ladder). Optimus Prime was chosen to be the leader (the "Prime") of Cybertron, with Megatron (then named "Megatronus") as Lord High Protector (a co-leader/military general, basically). Optimus was born an archivist/librarian, basically. Megatron was born to be a gladiator. Megatron grew unhappy with how the system oppressed him, and rebelled against it. Thus Cybertronians were divided into "Autobots" and "Decepticons".

    It doesn't matter how many times I've seen the movie, the scene with Optimus and the other Autobots arriving on Earth will always give me the good kind of chills.
    Little backstory: Since I was born in 1991, I didn't get to grow up with Peter Cullen as the voice of Optimus. In 2001, my first exposure to the Transformers universe was through the series Robots In Disguise, with a voice actor named Neil Kaplan providing the voice of Optimus Prime. Then from there it went to the Unicron trilogy with Gary Chaulk as the voice of Optimus. I didn't get to fully bask in the glory of the Autobot Supreme Commander until this movie came out in 2007. I have a profound appreciation for what Peter Cullen has brought to the table in the world of the Transformers. Between the live action movies (4 and 5 are horrible), and the Transformers Prime series. He is forever my favorite voice actor for Optimus Prime. I just hope I get to meet him one day before he inevitably passes.

    Hi, Oscar, I'm a 3D artist, I can tell you, the thought process and the time the 3D Rigging artists spent researching and making the skeletons of each robots and the time the animators took, the dedication of all the texturers, lighting artists, and all the others artists, are what made those effects so good. When I was studying, I remember watching a documentary on RUclips with the breakdown of how those effects were done, I can assure you, I have nothing but respect for those artists . Rigging, while I love this field, can be a nightmare if there's a problem, imagine if you have this level of complexity. I remember,as an exercise we had a simple robot to model and rig, one of my teachers told me and my colleagues that each movement had to have mechanisms that would make it believable to the viewer: "nothing is free, you can't just put ball joint everywhere on the model. " . That, that's x 400 at least.
    You would have to know
    how cars works,
    how those particular chosen models work to the part,
    then plan and figure out what you modify to match with the story and how the film director wants them to move and then only actually rig it,
    go back and forth with the director, the supervisor, the animators then,
    get it approved and pass it to the animators.
    I tell you, I respect those talented people. Even more so that you do this mad work and, at the end, your name is just hidden in plain sight in the credits

    The Camaro in which Bumblebee transforms is the prototype of the "new Camaro" from 2009. Michael Bay had to be careful not to scratch, dent or damage the car while filming. There was no new one, there was only the one. The car was promoted through the film in 2007. 2 years later the car was officially released and sold.

    11:41 Fun fact, to create that line they transformed the original transformers slogan which was "More than Meets The Eye" so it's a nod but also a jab at it in a way.

    If you’re watching the other movies, I just want to make one thing absolutely clear.
    Bumblebee (2018) and Rise of the Beasts (2023) are part of a separate continuity.
    Bumblebee was a reboot, and Rise of the Beasts continues its story.

    6:36 fun fact, that yellow VW Beetle that got blindsided by that car door- that's the original vehicle mode of the character Bumblebee from the 1980s Transformers Generation 1 cartoon :P
    13:25 funny you should mention the special FX, the shots of Frenzy at 12:44, 13:12, those were PRACTICAL effects, that was a real puppet they made of the character that they could maneuver off-screen, and Transformers- this movie in particular had quite a bit of practical effects and physical props in certain scenes to really sell the look and feel of things, like that full Bumblebee they were hauling into Hoover Dam, up to Megatron's legs when he was frozen there, Scorponok's tail in a number of scenes, it's _exquisite_

    The first movie stood the test of time very well! First, second, and third movie will always hold a special place in my heart -- this franchise was a foundation of my childhood, and each significant on-screen death still hits hard for me. Despite growing up watching G1TF in the early 2000s, this movie delivered and I geniunely enjoy watching Oscar's reaction as someone new to the franchise.
    Edit:
    To answer Oscar's question: Yes, the music is supposed to give you goosebumps, builds up the dramatic reveal

  • @TheDaringPastry1313
    @TheDaringPastry1313 5 месяцев назад +14

    I think the craziest thing about the Transformers movies is all the moving parts as they transform. Just the creativity to make it look good and actually make sense. A later movie has an insane transformation that is just incredible lol. That's the OG VA for Optimus Prime, Peter Cullen. He has been around forever and he recently had a role on the really gore-heavy animated show Invincible, which is also good, but heavy on the language and visuals. Shia LaBeouf has some decent movies. Earliest I know of that I remember is Holes, then you have Disturbia (plays a real similar character) and my favorite of his is The Peanut Butter Falcon, which is so underrated and no one seems to talk about it. You mentioned it many times in your reaction, but it got nominated for sound mixing and editing, plus special effects.

    I was managing a movie theater the summer this movie came out, and let me tell you it was an absolute SENSATION. It had been a hot minute since we had had a full-on summer blockbuster, and this film PACKED the theaters. I think we had it playing on 5 screens and it was still sold out for weeks.
    It was really cool though because they used to send us the film reels in these giant canisters that were locked and they would send the combination a few days before the premiere. But it was actually super easy to break into them, so we would assemble the films early and invite all our frienes for midnight screenings. We all got to watch this for the first time at 2am at full volume like two weeeks before it actually came out. It was such an awesome summer
