The Transformers Timeline | Michael Bay Transformers Franchise Timeline Explained
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- The Michael Bay Transformers, or Bayformers timeline is a complicated series of films, and the addition of Bumblebee has called many aspects of it into question. When Bay launched the live-action Transformers franchise in 2007, it was already clear that the "robots in disguise" had been hiding on Earth longer than most humans were aware. As the story progressed in each succeeding film, the history of the Transformers on Earth also went further and further back, until it was revealed that the origins of the planets Earth and Cybertron were intertwined. The order of Michael Bay live-action movies are:
Transformers (2007)
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen (2009)
Transformers: Dark of the Moon (2011)
Transformers: Age of Extinction (2014)
Transformers: The Last Knight (2017)

Transformers in this timeline: *responsible for every milestone in human kind*
Next thing you’re gonna tell me is that star scream caused 9/11
Maybe
Nah. Not starscream. Lugnut maaaaybeee
Nah it had to of been all the seekers
I'd say seekers
Nope, that's still an inside job
I like how Sam's graduation and realtionships are as important of an event as the death of the dinosaurs
damn, a comment from 3 years ago with 586 likes and no comments, lemme fix that
@@bestropper96 Damn you reminded me that I this comment even existed lol
@@Muflie well, atleast it got a bit of attention XD
@@bestropper96 yeah HAHAHA
@@Muflie That's funy ngl XD
Despite the Transformers franchise having the last two movies not doing so well, the full timeline of this franchise has always fascinated me, I always found it so interesting.
missing the bayformers movie man, missing them a lot they made my childhood better😔
@@ja_zX6r Jose your childhood must have sucked then because those movies were trash! They were done with writers and a director that never read the comics or watched any of the series. Pure trash. Bay destroyed the brand!!!
I loved Transformers 4 and 5
@@alanschuberth1583 okay if you believe that they were complete trash then good for you but don’t hate on others for liking them
Obviously when disney step in and turn it to a family friendly, hipster, sexist, liberal, chinese and american military colab propaganda and feminist movie it lost its true identity as a nostalgic action pack 90s kid movie. Even the cgi effects didnt save it
Humans: get off my planet!
"The transformers that were here n the planet even before the dinosaurs" : i'm sorry your planet?
What sucks is that they didn’t have a lore master to oversee the timeline
Yeah, and I also think they chose a different comic series to base each movie off of. So this means each movie does not correspond with each other at all. The gods of cybertron do not share a universe with the all spark so its confusing
Quintessa is alive, she escaped and was also shown again in the end where she took human appearance and she also tells a guy that she knows how to kill Unicron!!!
But damn it's years since it was shown and now there is not a single news about sequel of transformers.
@@animelover-2529 there is actually but the 6th movie is in late production... There's also a bumblebee sequel coming which will reveal details later next year...
Sauce: Random Black Gamer
@@animelover-2529 sadly bayverse Transformers got canceled they rebooted transformer with the Bumblebee movie
Sad thing is we probably will never get to see how it ends.
To be honest the ending would have likely not matched expectations.
HistoryFan476ad yeah but it’s better to end it then cliffhanger it
@@Carpediem357 Maybe so but i just don't think there is a wide audience for it out there anymore. we still got the new bumblebee universe though.
@@Zavex Their not theories their rumours which if several articles have covered them then they'll happen it's bumblebee 2(Not OFFICAL title) and beast wars
Paramount if you don't do transformers 7 then I'm coming for you.
So Bumblebee is a WWII vet. I wonder if he met Cap?
@@michellepuzon8282 its a joke
Cap driving a muddy black 'n yellow Willy's Jeep through a WWII battlefield before jumping out dramatically in slo-mo as the Jeep transforms into a giant robot and starts fighting Nazis sounds pretty great. Someone needs to make the crossover.
I'm just trying to see Cap save BB from a flamethrower before BB turns with an M2 and just mows down a bunch of Hydra agents.
Actually the Transformers were introduced in marvel comics so
Well, he hates Nazis.
Nive
Didn't Sam's great great grandad find Megatron back in 1817 ? It's actually stated he made the greatest discovery in the history of mankind also what about the first seven finding the all spark ?
1930s I think, I remember the clothes they wore...not 19th century
Greatest discovery of 1900s maybe
Could’ve sworn it was 1897.
I thought for sure it was 1897. I mean I’m pretty sure it said that in the first movie.
@@xøCommando It was 1903. In real life, the Arctic Circle Expedition happened 119 years ago. Since T1 took place in 2007, it would have happened 104 years before then.
I like the idea that the autobots are being hunted after the events of Dark Of the Moon and it makes it different and interesting. I wish we can see Sam in it because he was the first one to communicate with the autobots in the first movie. It would be cool to find out hiding out there and some how got lucky.
Jose Magallon he ded
Well, main reason why Sam isn't there anymore in the Transformer movies is because Shia La Boeuf was being toxic to the movie crew.
In universe I think Adam died because of Radiation
@@SB3_01No
He didn't return because he said his story of sam ended at dark of the moon.thats what I heard of.
Bumblebee killing Nazis is just too much for me to believe. Hitler's watch killing him is even stupider.
EDIT: Didn't expect this many likes, thx!
S.S Swaggings Yeah. I just can’t. It’s too fucking ridiculous.
The movies stoped making sense after tf4
@@eliomorgan7773 honestly during tf4 aswell
Yh I doesn't make sense
It does tho bumblebee arrived on earth most likely by accident in the 1940s helped fight the Nazis and if we are including the bumblebee movie he left earth until the 1980s then stays on earth to meet Sam Witwicky
This timeline is the most incomprehensible thing I’ve ever seen.
What about terminator and x men
@@godzilla5611 at least those movies are mostly entertaining and SOME of them make sense together. None of the transformers movies make sense together.
@@newdriver9800 almost all the terminator movies take place in a different timeline, and i don't understand x men
If you think this is bad, then just wait until I tell you about a little indie game called: FINAL FANTASY VII. Or perhaps the Chrono Saga would be more up your alley? If not, then you can always do some quick reading and check out Homestuck- it's only a measly 11,000+ pages long.
i gotta admit it, revenge of the fallen was my favorite
So the allspark created cybertronians, but then it was the creators that made them, and Megaton was planning to come to earth with the fallen, but already planned on rebuilding cybertron there with Sentinel. And just to top it off, earth just so happens to be coincidentally be the transformer god of destruction too
basically yea
The last part found connect everything else. It could be why all these things were attracted to Earth.
The Allspark created Cybertron, the creators built the Transformers. Megatron participated in the Fallen's plan because he realized if Optimus was killed and the Fallen got the Matrix, they could use it to revive Sentinel themselves rather than having to trick Optimus. When the Fallen was killed, he resorted back to the original plan with Sentinel that we saw unfold in DotM. I know your comment is really old but whatever.
Typically in fiction, Lore exists to make things clear and thus help the audience keep in mind the reasons behind the conflict presented in that story.
Transformers' Lore, on the other hand, does the opposite: its sole purpose is to add new elements to the story without trying to resolve the plot's previous mysteries...
The contradictions in this "timeline" are ridiculous.
Are you going to say why?
@@_somestuff Hmm?
@@_somestuff
You're kidding...
@@_somestuff ahh of course, comparing two series not even related to each other nor serve the same purpose
Stupid. Create your own video showing us the correct version.
Being an 80's kid and seeing the animated movie, it baffles me how Unicron would be hidden inside earth with everything going on... he must be one deep sleeper and thus brings me to...what happens when he finally does wake up?
Didn't grow up in the 80's but I was raised with g1 and every other transformers media as well and yeah, I dont know how that makes any sense. Didn't even know unicron was part of bayverse until this video tbh
Like seriously, the allspark is supposed to be primus' spark so how does unicorn not respond. Hell okay bay changed it but still how does unicorn not wake up and be like oh shit the all spark is on my head. Time to go kill primus
There are like 4 episodes in TF Primethat address this
ruclips.net/video/nFg7avnH1EE/видео.htmlsi=6aOeFvcU6l9UPQek
It's crazy to thing the saying there is more to earth than meets the eye is because they keep discovering new things about it and their race.
I like to imagine that Unicron destroyed the homeworld of the Quintessons and the few survivors formed a plot to get their revenge. Being unable to oppose him on their own, they had to rely on their technical skills to form an army of mechanical warriors. Without many resources to carry out the construction, an intelligent solution was required. It was designing technology that could effectively turn any organic life into metal, which would serve as the building material. This technology was the so-called Seeds. To produce large quantities, those Seeds had to be launched into different regions of the galaxy, where the material would later also have to be collected. Later on, the AllSpark was built from the same material and used to produce the first generation of soldiers - the original Primes.
Bro wrote a whole essay
Well there’s different origins for cybertron and unicron and the transformers
Weren't the Quintessons responsible for Unicron's creation?
@@davidsavage5630 No.
I like how TIME is based on the birth of JESUS CHRIST
Quintesa is still alive and kicking. She she got shot she warped outta there, Megatron got kicked through the wall and I'm 100% sure transformed into get mode and flow off into the sun set as he normally does. Quentesa been walking around the desert with a human face.
You should play some transformers theme music in the back round I love this video btw
That will strike a copyright
@@mindq4328 just demonize it
@@alumlovescake he needs money man
@@theworld9744 For who knows how long humanity survived without RUclips and they still can.
Its called a real job.
You can still get a strike even if your videos aren't monetized.
Fun Fact The Fallen is actually a former prime known as Megatronus prime
So it seems like the human in the movies just don’t even feel crazy how a legit alien is on earth since WW2
Yup! Confusing is the correct way of describing Bay's universe. All movies are basically stand alone, even though they're supposed to be a series.
You know, I knew 0 thing about Transformers when I watched the first movie. I will always see the first 3 movies as top animation of that time and I really liked learning their lore (though I understand these movies made it not like it should be). Then with the 4th movie I saw the problem of repeating the story arc, not bringing it forward really and after the fifth now looking back at this timeline. Both the timeline is messed up and unrealistic, plus, Unicron/Earth is like the biggest conicidental magnet for attracting basically every important Transformers-known objects.
I mean, what was the pitch for TF5 man, "oh I have a new chapter that is worthy in our saga, oh and I connected this thing from the past too" But how does that match up with the previous mentioned past in the 4 movies before? Oh lets use it and say it happened before everything else from the previous 4 movies. If TF6 ever comes it will say someone created the cube, therefore happening before all else......
Imagine these transformers scenarios
1. where autobots don't care about humans
2. where there are no autobots, just humans vs decepticons
AOT type beat
Attack on transformers
@@FauxReal. 🎶"Are you the prey? NO! I'm a Trans-for-mer!"🎶
The comics are questionably canon because Crosshairs appears in one of the rotf ones and presumably dies there, yet turns up clearly alive in Age of Extinction.
in TF 1-3, There's a transformer in ancient egypt, and then in TF 4-5, the one that is the closest to the "creators" are the knighs in which they were shown in King arthur trilogy, isn't ancient egypt older than old britain?
I'm thomas
The brittish knights betrayed quintessa after the fallen betrayed the primes
Bay must be stopped no matter what the cost
Obviously Egypt is older, but the Knights were born way before earth had humans on it. But they arrived on earth during the old Britain period
This is a brilliant timeline summary video, thank you.
4:21 that's King Ghidorah does anybody else see it?
Its not .-.
I know but it looks like him tho
Oh yea
Rather Mecha King Ghidorah
That's dragonstorm I'm pretty sure
I finally understand this timeline. It was so hard to follow with all the retcons.
Bay's Transformers series had amazing concepts and ideas with potential, but poorly executed
10:03 Cybertron do be looking kinda small comparing it to earth.
Bruh Quentesa didn’t die.....she appeared in a scene in human form near one of unicorns horn
thank you finally i understood the bloody timeline and it made more sense
What I want to know is what happened to the Matrix of Leadership after the battle of Chicago. In AoE, we can see Optimus' spark when he transforms back into his robot form after being in stasis as a truck, but we never hear or see any reference to the Matrix. Did Optimus lose it at some point, or give it up because he felt unworthy of leading the Autobots?
Megatron has been in cryostasis since 1934, he was discovered sometime in the 1800s but Archibald Witwicky
What i don't understand is that in every movie, Cybertron it's different. It isn't always the same
movies 1 and 3 have the same cybertron but movie 5's cybertron was movie 3's cybertron after it was sucked back through the space bridge at the end of movie 3.
Any one else recently had the urge to binge the entire transformers collection?
i like how nameless soldier#1 has been in literally every single movie literally more combined screen time than any main character
Wait a sec the Allspark crashed in the artic and Sam whitwickie's great-grandfather discovered it along with discovering Megatron
Son: Why did it take us so long to go back to the moon? 🥺
Father: Well it was actually to prevent humanity from plundering the Ark of Sentinel Prime...
Optimus was first Orian Pax and before that he was the 13th prime. The 13th sacrificed himself at the well of all sparks to breathe new life into Cybertron
Best video so far on the story of the Transformers, thank you.
I love this timeline. Great job! There is a tiny bit of flaws though. Captain Witwicky discovered Megatron in 1897. I think you forgot the battle between autobots and Decepticon’s when sentinel was alive. It showed it in the beginning of the 3rd movie i think. But it is okay. I forget a lot too.
That first artwork is absolutely stunning, does someone know how I can find it?
Mind Q I think you should make a timeline of Assassins Creed
Normally I'd say The last knight would happen somewhere around 2023 due to it taking some time for Optimus to go find Cybertron and for Cybertron to be transported slowly along with it taking around 1-2 weeks
these artworks are really sick
For me just letting go and watching the movie for the action of the Transformers was a fun ride. Granted the plot of the movies were suspect at times. Thanks for the timeline.🤖🤖🤖
There is so much evidence pointing to how the Bumblebee movie is a prequel. I am pretty damn sad that the Bayverse is coming to an end
That’s what I meant. It might not have been that clear though
My bad
I wouldn't even be surprised if Michael Bay honestly thinks that THIS is what Earth's actual history was in the real world.
Makes no sense that the All Spark is way older than the being who created Unicron and Primus
What I don’t get is how that other Autobot that fought with bumblebee during ww2 is old and worn out in present day and bumblebee hasn’t aged sorta thing
I’m on about bumblebee in TF5. Sir Edmond burton explains how bumblebee fought in WW2 along side hotrod, how comes they haven’t aged whereas that old tank that guards sir Edmonds castle has aged? etc. Sir Edmond says “He has robot dementia” because he shoots at Cade and bumblebee.
Hyakuuu ••• you have a good point. But yeah It’s all fucked up
The Primes weren't the first transformers to exist ? They were created by Primus, so wouldn't that make them a lot older than the Knights of Quintessa and the Dinobots ?
after watching this... I still have no idea
Cant wait to see the last 2 movies. Big fan of Michael Bay's movies there a bit funny and its mixes well with the action part as well. Plus it's really hard to make movies because of the technology not people now how to use it.
The Bayverse Has been rebooted with the Bumblebee movie. thus the Bayverse will get no more movies and it sucks!
So somewhere between 60 million BC and 17,000 BC the primes came to be. That's quite a gap of time. But anyway, I find it interesting that the primes weren't the first of creation seeing as how they seem godlike.
Transformers of Michael Bay still had the best concept in any Transformers media.
Although not perfect but it captured my imagination about robots and scary nature of it
1:40 wasn't that because he drifted through space eventually resting near our sun because he was defeated by Primus and the original Primes?
So 2020 unicorn tries to wipe out the human insects on him by unleashed deadly micro robotic organisms called the corona virus
Can you explain why Ironhide or a transformer similar looking to him was then seen in a painting with sail ships in The Last Knight? If bumblebee was one the first Autobots on earth, it makes total sense how you explained it, but I’d still like to know what that painting was all about? What’s the meaning? Was Ironhide really on earth evidentially hundreds of years before we thought? I mean, what other reason would they have painted Ironhide in such way. Let me know, that part has always confused me because I always thought that he came to earth along with the rest of the Autobots in 2007.
Even though we have a spin-off Transformers movie series, We need Bay to direct one last movie to rap up the Unicron story.
Transformers 1: Pretty Good 👌🏾
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen: Okay at best 🤷🏿♂️
Transformers Dark of the Moon: My favorite in the series & second best movie
Transformers Age of Extinction: I enjoyed it enough (Lockdown was fire af tho🔥🔥)
Transformers The Last Knight: 😐💩
The third movie was made during the writers strike... the story was written after Michael Bay shot a bunch of action scenes.😂
@@ramigilneas9274 actually it was the second movie that was made during the writer's strike, which explains why most of the scenes felt weird and out of place along with the story
Quintesa is not dead and not megatron also. She was seen in the post credit scenes telling someone about unicron.
I swear Megatron's sea burial foreshadows Osama's.
You know this timeline isn't true when the people behind the films couldn't even explain things! They just made things up as they went along. Michael Bay couldn't even remember what part of Transformers he was making at one point, and was reminded by the interviewer that it was TF5. And he was like "oh yeah TF5." I kid you not that interview exist I just don't have the link anymore. LMAO
Yeah but the story still fits the together and I don’t to think what you said is all true
Why didn’t he mention the bumblebee movie??
it's a reboot.
I was watching transformers the last knight and as I was looking the horns I had this really cool idea for what could have been a part 2 for the movie. So as I watched the movie and got to the part where they mentioned about the glyphs on the knights round table and the meaning. I had this thought in my head for a good while.
What if the horns that we saw on earth wasn’t unicron? What if the horns when they are all brought together form up a portal and that’s where unicron would come out in his planet mode and from there he would transform and pretty much attack cybertron and earth?.
Think about it looking back at that table they didn’t know the meaning of the cybertronian glyphs so what if they misinterpreted the meaning behind them.
Having the Horns around earth as a prison for unicron wouldn’t be a bad idea cause that would eliminate the whole idea to where earth is unicron. If I’m gonna be honest having earth as unicron was not the greatest idea in my opinion. I would image if he transformed he would basically kill everyone and everything which would be kinda ridiculous.
Another idea I had as well has to do with cybertron itself. I’ve got 2 for this one.
So idea number 1 what if cybertron was primus?
That would really make things interesting as we would have one hell of a battle with the 2 planet sized transformers.
Idea number 2 and this one consists of a big giant plot twist.
What if this entire time the cybertron that showed up in the last knight wasn’t cybertron at all but was unicron the entire time and all that was needed was for earth to make contact with this foreign planet in order to bring this planet sized villain to life.
This one would be very interesting cause if you look back at dark of the moon cybertron gets sucked into a worm hole and we never see it again. And to top it all off cybertron looked different in the last knight which raised the question why does the structure and condition of this metal world appear so different from its previous iteration in dark of the moon?
There’s so many possibilities but I think the best one out of all of them is the idea of having the horns be like a dimensional door way for unicron to come through.
That would really make things really interesting for the live action movie.
Any thoughts?
I think those would've been Interesting plots if they choose to finish the bayverse
That is very intriguing, I’m not gonna lie. It would be awesome to see that but unfortunately they’ve cancelled Transformers which leaves us on a cliffhanger.
Yeah the cliffhanger is the only thing that kinda irritates me. It honestly would be great if they could at least wrap up the bayverse. Don’t get me wrong I love the bayverse I will admit there were some parts the kinda made me cringe a little like how the movies had a little too much comedic relief. I feel like the movies should have had a more serious tone. Like if it had just one or 2 funny moments just timed at the right moments I would be good with that.
There were some other things that kinda drove me nuts in terms of visuals like how the cgi in the later films would have that very slight drop in frame rate which I thought was kinda odd cause we never see that in the first film. I guess since they had to rush the movie with Editing they never spent that much time fine tuning the digital effects. Also forgot to mention as I was watching the making of the second film they did mention that they had explore a little more with lighting on the digital character models and in most cases rebuild new ones to accommodate with the lighting and textures. Also can’t forget the new camera angels too.
Really interesting stuff when you think about it.
I’m also thinking that it could possibly be a quirk with the software they used. Which I’ve also seen those very same quirks in other movies that went crazy with cgi.
Unless those slight drops in frame rate we’re intentional and meant to make shots look a certain way which I guess is understandable.
Me personally I would like to see a smoother frame rate and consistency with the digital effects.
And if various characters had more screen time that definitely would have made things even more interesting.
Love the live action movies definitely wished they expanded a little more with the story as thing’s really would been very interesting if we saw a little more with the lore in this particular transformers universe.
Now here’s where things get kinda weird. There’s still talks here and there that they may do like one or 2 films but it’s not confirmed yet.
Maybe now would be the time for someone to step in and give more ideas as to what they can do to wrap up the bayverse like how we can finally get something going with Unicron. I would definitely step in cause I’ve got so many interesting ideas as to how things could go down with this particular character. If you think about it having that idea that this whole time we’ve been mislead into thinking earth is unicron but in actuality earth is just a doorway keeping him trapped in a dimensional prison.
Or this whole time the cybertron we’ve been seeing in the last knight is unicron and earth would be like the last thing he needs to either fully rebuild himself or the staff is like the only thing needed to awaken him as well as a spark from a suitable transformer. That being a prime or someone even greater.
And sometime later discovering that that the matrix is the only way to kill him.
That would honestly be an awesome nod the 1986 movie right there if the matrix was like his weakness in the live action movies.
That would be really crazy and very interesting if they did something like that.
Honestly would be an insane plot twist to have something like that in this particular universe .
Juan Leonor Yeah at this point, I’m just assuming they couldn’t be bothered with and wanted the movies done. Some scenes in TF5 especially with the cars. It was just the same sound each time they were driving the cars and escaping. The movie is called Transformers and the most I saw was humans. Like how does some random girl from the UK able to control the Quintessa’s staff. It doesn’t make any sense and Cade also, a human was able to stop a knight from Cybertron being able to behead Optimus. Somehow the humans play the more important role than the Transformers themselves. They should’ve just stopped at TF3. Even Lockdown who was able to take down Primes because he’s a bounty hunter not able to kill 3 humans in the final battle. It’s so stupid as to how that works.
Revah it’s funny how you mentioned they should have stopped at 3 cause I thought they were done when dark of the moon came out then suddenly 4 comes up then 5 right after.
Unless they decide to go with the newer movies being stand alone and setup more like what if type scenarios. I mean they could do that if they wanted to.
I’m thinking at some point they gotta show who the creators really are cause they definitely played a big role in both the lore and cartoons. And the creators being the Quintessons. I would definitely throw them in and have them be like the additional villain for the movies since they were always operating in the shadows back in the cartoons.
Maybe at some point there could be a scenario where things get really dicey with unicron and the autobots and remaining decepticons have no choice but to join forces with the quintessons to destroy unicron.
Which would be kinda ironic if you think about it cause they were the makers of transformers.
It would be interesting to see transformers who were originally trying to get away from the quintessons control just suddenly joining forces to take down a common foe. Of course In my scenario I’d have it setup to where they are like secondary villains but eventually come to common ground when they discover there’s a threat far worse than them. And have them temporarily join forces and have them go back to their original goal.
That would definitely make things very interesting for the live action films if they decide to pull off something like that.
Would also have the fallen and Nemisis prime return as well and of course give them larger roles in that particular storyline
That’s just my idea
So if Megatron was trapped in Ice for Thousands of years, when did he make that plan with Sentinel Prime? They really waited all that time to enact the plan? So part of the War was fought without Megatron there and the Autobots still lost?
He most likely made the plan on cybertron
Awesome video! love your singing! Keep up the good work!!

@@geenhaaien Why do you think TLK was better than AOE? TLK had tons of plot holes. Bumblebee getting his voice back absolutely made zero sense. The Decepticons were downgraded in terms of their strength (They got defeated by the Autobots too easily), the battle between Optimus and Megatron only lasted for a minimum of 10 seconds, I was expecting a rematch with Bee and Barricade but unfortunately that never happened, Optimus and Dinobots screentime was reduced by a lot compared to AOE, Bee's new ability to reassemble himself was completely random and unnecessary, aspect ratio was constantly shifting and that was very irritating, Optimus freezing in space was confusing because we saw him arrive to Earth along with the other Autobots in the 2007 film without freezing, Quintessa sucked as a villain, all we know is that she is supposedly the "Creator", which I highly doubt. In AOE, there is clearly more than one Creator headed towards Earth in the beginning of the film, even Lockdown told Optimus that his "Creators" want him back. The whole movie was totally a huge inconsistent, jumbled mess. TLK had so much potential and I even had high expectations for that movie. Massive letdown. AOE had plenty of entertaining action sequences (Drone ship chase, Optimus V. Galvatron, Optimus V. Lockdown, Bee V. Stinger, The Dinobots charging into battle, Hound V. KSI prototypes), Lockdown was such an intimidating villain and he had a much longer fight with Optimus unlike Megatron from TLK, Optimus literally had 25 minutes of screentime. That is why I personally think AOE was definitely better than TLK.
Quintessa never died she was sucked into the transfer of that little ship due to the credits scene
According to the paintings/photos in the old guy's house in TF5, Transformers like Optimus and Ironhide have been on Earth working with Humans for hundreds of years already, so WHY does Sector 7 not know about them???
And why do they come in 2007 when they're already here for hundreds of years
@@godzilla5611 yea that was so stupid😂😂so they were at earth all this time then they go back to cybertron then they come back to earth in 07??
This video needs a update and you have to add the timeline parts from bumblebee, transformers rise of the beast and the transformers live action tv Series, I think.
1:45-1:50 Too fill in the gap, Unicron and Primus have always been in conflict with one another, order and chaos, creation and destruction. It's said Primus was only able to defeat Unicron after he created the 13 Primes. Once defeated, Primus cast Unicron's body out and overtime his body had come to collect mass around itself until it formed and became the very core of the Earth.
Unicron's horns rising from the Earth are not an indication of him fighting "the mad goddess Quintessa", that is obviously a misconception and a deviation from the truth. It's likely just Bay trying to conceal Primus as an entity within the Transformers cinematic universe. Since that is the misconception, the truth is actually Unicron readying to face his old arch enemy Primus whom forms the core of Cybertron.
In terms of lore, this does come from the lore behind Transformers Prime, however I must say this lore is far more realistic and cannon towards Transformers as a whole, not just the cinematic universe. However, one truth is constant despite lore, Unicron is not a being that would willingly create anything.
U do know not every Unicron is the same
I like to believe that Unicron made Megatron and prime to destroy the universe while he's sleeping
Everyone who complained about the timeline should get to see this!
Silly RUclipsr. You can't explain Michael Bay's timeline.
I mean every single movie they found out that Transformers have been on Earth since... the 1800's, ancient Egypt, the 1960's, the time of the dinosaurs, ancient Camelot -and WW1 and nobody knew.
No one ever knew!
Can you explain how Sam was the last surviving member of a society that protected the Autobots but he didn't even know that.
And the Autobots didn't know either.
Adam Smasher Did you watch the video
The michael bay universe is not cannon anymore
@Hyakuuu ••• You're saying you knew? In the first movie when Sam first met Bumblebee and ran for his life terrified and screaming because he had no idea who the Transformers were you knew that he was really the last member of a society that has helped the Autobots for centuries? You knew this? Did you turn to your friends and tell them "But it won't be revealed until the 5th movie." I'm saying it's not possible because we saw the movies and it wasn't the situation at all.

That tank autobot is named Bulldog
Did the primes ever meet the guardian knights?
I'm a huge fan of Transformers and I've noticed a few mistakes/inconsistencies in this video;
1) The films never explain what the Creators did with the Transformium. Lockdown did mention to Optimus that he had been built, but the overwhelming majority of Transformers are born on Cybertron.
2) You say "Transformers" like it's interchangeable with "Cybertronian". The 12 Knights of Iacon are by no means the first Cybertronians, and I would doubt that they are the first transforming Cybertronians as well. The Primes predate them (they're literally called "The original Cybertronians created by the Allspark"), as does Quintessa herself. Considering that the Primes predate the Iacon Knights, it stands to reason that the Seekers do too, and the Seekers can transform (as shown by Jetfire in ROTF). So no, the Knights of Iacon are not the first Transformers - they are merely an elite guard tasked with protecting Quintessa before she went evil.
3) "The Dynasty of Primes ruled Cybertron until they were betrayed by one of their own" I can only assume you mean the Fallen by that - and while they might have been the ruling class of Cybertron in their time, they weren't actually on Cybertron. They traveled from planet to planet, star system to star system, harvesting Energon using Star Harvesters. They employed scouts, or Seekers, to assist them in finding suitable star systems to harvest (their singular rule - never destroy a planet with life). Their betrayal shouldn't have been mentioned until the next timeline entry, which is when they were actually betrayed.
4) "The Fallen, a Decepticon leader, arrives on earth and constructs the Star Harvester" wrong again, I'm afraid. By 17'000BC, the Primes as a whole were on Earth and ruled over the primitive humans here. I assume they were using Earth as a base while they scouted the nearby star systems for signs of life (they would have harvested those systems if they didn't find life) which would explain why they had a Harvester here already. They weren't planning to use it, merely keeping it nearby. They had teleport "bridging" abilities so I would assume that once they found a suitable star to harvest for Energon, they would collectively "bridge" the Harvester and themselves to a planet in that system. But no, the Fallen did not arrive here in 17'000BC and he did not construct that Harvester on his own as you imply. Also, the Fallen was THE Decepticon Leader, the one who started it all and Megatron's boss.
5) Energon isn't quite a power source. It's a bit like the Cybertronian version of blood, water and food all in one. "Fuel" would be a better term for it
6) "It was then that the Decepticon Soundwave spent a decade sabotaging NASA and the Soviet space agency to prevent any further missions the the Ark" Soundwave and Laserbeak may well have been involved but according to the douchebag boss of Carly Spencer in DOTM, it was actually his (douchebag's) father who did some creative accounting to make it way too expensive to return to the Moon.
7)"Nearly turned on the Star Harvester in Egypt" close, but not quite. They actually did power it up but, because the Harvester has a charging time, Optimus managed to disable the Harvester's firing controls and shut it down before they could begin extracting Energon from the Sun.
8) "Sentinel Prime defects" technically he defected before the Ark left Cybertron, the Autobots didn't find out until they revived him.
9) "Important government buildings now utilize Energon detectors against Transformers" they've been using them since ROTF, at least 5 years longer than you say. Optimus Prime's narration at the beginning of DOTM shows this, yet according to you, they only start using them after DOTM.
10) It's clear that English isn't your first language but from what I can tell, you are fluent enough to be easily understandable in the vast majority of what you say. However, due to a combination of your accent and the words you use, I cannot understand what you say regarding Lockdown preparing Earth for Cybertron to destroy Earth. Nothing of the sort is mentioned in AOE anyway - Lockdown's only mission here is to find Optimus by any means necessary.
11) "Galvatron transforms back into Megatron" not really, since Megatron's severed head from the end of DOTM manages to infect the Galvatron prototype in AOE. Different body but the same mind - Galvatron was always Megatron.
12) "The Staff is recovered, but at the cost of Cybertron's remains colliding with Earth" Quintessa was going to collide Cybetron and Earth anyway, the Staff just happened to be recovered at about the same time.
13) "...at the cost of Cybertron's remains colliding with Earth to begin draining power from it, devastating the planet and killing billions" the way this is phrased makes it sound like the collision of the 2 planets killed billions. I would estimate a death toll in the millions just from the collisions - it wasn't a quick impact like a meteor, it was a lot slower and more controlled. But you did get one thing right here - if Quintessa was allowed to siphon all of Unicron's power into Primus, Earth would have been irradiated almost instantly by the lack of magnetic fields protecting us from the Sun, which would have immediately killed every living thing on the entire planet. Yay, deathworld!
Sorry for the long post and sorry to shred your video to ribbons like this. I couldn't just sit here knowing other people could watch this video when it has so much misinformation in it, particularly when I know that it wasn't your intention.
Those are not his mistakes though....they are writing mistakes from the creators.....
@@maikbam2827 yes, some of my points are plotholes left by the directors. But each of the points I raised corrects a bit of misinformation (or an assumption) that MindQ gives in the video. Most of my points are based on information you see in the movies; only point 2 takes information from outside the movies (specifically, the lore given has come from the Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Nintendo DS games)
Plz update this timeline with Transformers: Rise of The Beasts and Transformes 6: Unicron
I always included the DOTM game in the timeline
Coming from a star wars character lol
Andrzej Kubinski I include the KOTOR games in the canon timeline idk why
Lol
Bumblebee said he doesn't remember sir Edward lol
4:23 another incarnation is ghidorah
What about seekers? (the first transformer on earth as jetfire said) and his father who turned into the first wheel on earth? Do they know the 12 knights of their ancestors?
We don't care about Michael Bay's Transformers timeline because he screwed up the real Transformers storyline.
You need to research Age of Extinction and The Last Knight again . Age of Extinction release in 2014 and The Last Knight release in 2017. Bumblebee movie release in 2018
I know i'm late but last time I checked timelines do not follow the release date also you it is obvious you did not pay attention to bumblebee when it showed 1987
Transformers 1: Great
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen: My favorite. (The Fallen, and Devaster was cool.)
Transformers dark of the moon: Meh
Transformers age of extinction: I enjoyed it.
Transformers the Last Knight: pretty Good. (CAME AT ME)
come at me*
i respect ur opinion 100%
I feel the same!
Finally someone else who loves rotf
I loved Dotm I think it’s the only one where I don’t just skip to the battles
we have the same opinion! rotf was the best!!!
The transformers lore is just as complicated as the kirby's lore
So basically in Transformers the USA for aliens in the universe is Earth...
Out of all planets in the Universe, the only thing aliens can see is it...
Cause apparently it’s Unicron.
No transformers version is better than the G1. Best storyline,best timeline,best transformation,best megatron/galvatron,best in everything.
None of this makes sense tho. TF1 yeah it does but they knew about the ark in the 1970's but megatron has another plan with the fallen even though him and sentinel were meant to meet on earth?
Sentinel was Megatrons back up plan in order to kill the Fallen, because only a Prime can kill him.
Now with the new movie from what i understood, unicron triest to consume eaarth, but isnt unicron supposed to be earth?
Queentessa didn't die in the transformers last Knight as she appeared at the end of the movie saying "he doesn't like to be touched " and the guy said "who ?" And she answered "Unicron"
You should do basic timeline on prehistoric history.
Transformers age of extinction is realeased in 2014 not 2017
Transformers the last knight is realeased in 2017 not 2018
its the movie timeline, not the reality timeline
@@jazmihamizan4987 I did not know that. Good to know
@@jazmihamizan4987 , actually Mind Q thinks AOE and TLK release in 2017 and 2018 but it’s release in 2014 and 2017
Thats the best video I've ever seen regarding this topic. But i have a few questions though
1)how were the dinobots created exactly?
2)how did the quintessons create the 12 knights without the all spark?
3)where is the original location of cybertron?
4)when did the war of Cybertron happen?
5) in which year did Archibald discover megatron?
6)how did the dinobots get from the arctic to china in AOE?
Maybe some answers are there in the movies but it'd be a great help if anyone can answer these🙇
1. This is just my guess but I think they were "mutated/transformer" into mechanical beings
2. Idk
3. Idk
4. A long time idk
5. 1897
6. They probably told Lockdown and he took them then Optimus and crew disembark from the main ship
Wait I thought Megatron crashed land on earth 4,000 years ago. They said that in the movie
Gabriel Santanton no, they said “he crashed in the ice, probably a few thousand years ago”
@@yggdrasil2911 that's technically what he already said
