      This reminds me; back when Sentinel Prime was in charge, the Autobots were more willing to make the “hard decisions”(in other words, sacrifice their own comrades and commit war crimes) to defeat their enemies. Optimus hates it when his friends are ordered to operate under such grey morality, so he is right to fear that certain human military entities would spit on the Autobots’ moral values at any opportunity.

    Funstory:
    I went to watch ROTB with two of my friends. one a casual Transformers fan and the other not really a fan at all.
    While Person A liked the movie, Person B came out disapointed because there was no military in the movie, and he only enjoyed these movies for the coo military momments. Kind of made me reconsider what the audience of these movies are. While there were obviously a lot of people that enjoyed these movies for the Transformers, it's clear to me that the general audience doesn't really see these movies as part of a long alone standing franchise, and know it as mostly michael bay's action movie franchise number 1.
    It's why so many people complain about a lack of Shia or michael bay, or the things that made the movies this way. Transformers right now has to kind of fight an uphill battle, as the non transformers fans/the casual audience that were fans of these movies, were more interested in michael bays style than anything substantial about the concept or the world of Transformers, and the people that were not interested in bayformers, view these movies as extensions to michael bays style of film making and not as a franchise unrelated to any director or studio. It leaves both fans of the baymovies disapointed, as the film they're coming for doesn't exist, and casual viewers disinterested, as they believe it to be something that isn't for them.
    Hopefuly TF One changes the public perceptions of these movies and brings in both old and new fans back into the franchise.

      @@ChryseCoder Sorry but if your friend only enjoyed the bayverse films for the military scenes alone then they definitely missed the part where the title of the movie says "transformers" not "military action flick with some aliens on the side". If they wanted a military film, there's tons of that already in existence. As of right now, tf one is showing audiences transformers DOESN'T need to rely on bay-hem to work. As much as I love the bayverse films for entertainment sake, they aren't the best representation of the franchise and such a heavy focus on the military (let alone the humans) lead to many cybertronian characters being underdeveloped or not used at all in said story.
      Audiences can't praise their flicks for their action sequences regarding the military but still want less humans and more robot focus. It doesn't work that way. Gotta pick one over the other. It's a 2 hour film, not a series that has more wiggle room for you to do X Y and Z. People who aren't fans of transformers honest to God don't know what they want cause they don't know what transformers is outside of just 7 live action films meanwhile there's a multitude of TF media that does what the films do but better.
      If there is a possible silver lining, it's that tf one gives people a wake up call transformers stories are about the transformers. NOT the humans. Human characters are fine but don't add so many and don't focus on them so much. That leaves less time and less room for you to develop the characters most people came to see, the transformers themselves. Rotb unfortunately felt like a bayverse film to a degree for better and worst and while I enjoyed it, it had Lorenzo written all over it which is why I'm not excited for the sequel.
      The fact Lorenzo even said transformers have to be the main focus in the next live action film sometime after seeing the positive reception to tf one shows it took this man nearly 20 years for him to figure out audiences and fans want to see the transformers carry the film. Not humans. That says alot.

    Tbh, the main Problem with Transformers is not the Human Characters or the Use of Military.
    The problem is about the Balancing them, It should've been from a Perspective of the Transformers First then Humans and not the Human First.
    I watched Transformers One yesterday, Really a Good Film like one of the best ever. And I hope they will also make a sequel (the plan is indeed a trilogy).
    But yes, after that, it's true that Transformers, especially Autobots, have to go to Earth again and again, and besides, don't most Transformers stories (Cartoons and Live Acrion) ended up coming down to Earth ?
    Tbh, I hope they still make Transformers Movies especially with Human Characters and for them to Balance it better, and then most fans also wants Transformers to be more humanized in Character Development (Which Di Bonaventura stated after Transformers One's release and the plan for Future G.I. Joe Crossover), rather than just plain Alien robot with lack of deep character development in Bayverse.
    I don't against the use of Military in Transformers movie, i mean in the end how come you are on earth facing giant Alien robots, of course Military should be a part of it, it's not a propaganda thing but a logical way of thinking.
    Tbh, Transformers Film series just need a Better Story, ok a Better story (and better design character too albeit still realistic), the CGI in Transformers live action especially Bayverse is a standard to this day, and I hope they could carry on on that such quality.
    What made me loved with Transformers Live action series, is that, it kinda reminds me of Biblical Story of "David and Goliath", and that is one of the main reason why I loved them.

    Personally, propoganda or not, the cinematography of the military action alligned with giant robots made the final battle climaxes feel really big and impactful, like you were actually there compared to ROTB's climax. It's something about having Transformers characters in a 3rd perspective that makes them feel so alien and giant, and I'm in full support of having humans as protagonists.Its just what made Bays transformers different from any other movie franchise I could think of.

I noticed this in the ROF where US soldiers were hunting down that Decepticon in China with the Autobots, which is so funny to me now because if that happens in real life China would not allow this at all, and probably only asked the Autobots.

    Of all military scenes, Blackout attack and rotf intro were the best because they were descrete and the robots were still the focus.
    Scorpnok battle is where the focus is not the robot but the military. Scorpnok could have easily killed everyone but he instead stood in place shooting, giving the time for the US military to launch a drone, then two A10s and then a gunship. It really took me out of the movie.

    Well, the military involvement in these films is what made these films realistic. Think about it: if alien robots on opposing sides land and have their war here, it would be natural for the US Government and the Military to get involved and keep the situation under control.

    Just like anything else in the Bayverse movies, the US military was a caricature of the real thing. Like other people in the comment section said, the original Bayverse trilogy was just COD but with giant alien robots in the background (except COD had a pretty good story going on at that time). The US military was buffed to the point where troops, tanks, and jets would teleport to any random location in the world, depending on where a battle with the Decepticons was happening, and would kick absolute ass against a supposedly ancient and technologically advanced alien race. This resulted in the Transformers getting nerfed to the point where a sedan driving into one at 65 mph would kill it, and simple human weapons like regular assault and sniper rifles being more than effective at taking these massive alien robots down. These movies turned the Transformers into a joke just to make the US military look good. ROTB did a good job with handling the Transformers because the film allowed the giant robots to handle their own conflict, not only in complete secrecy, but without the involvement of any human army, thus showing the competence of these giant robot characters to handle their own problems without major human interference for what feels like the first time in any live-action TF movie. That's why I have a good feeling about the upcoming G I Joe crossover sequel, because it will return human military involvement into the reboot universe's storyline, and has the potential to do so well and with good reasoning as long as it's handled properly, such as the G I Joes responding to Cobra's schemes with the Decepticons. We have no choice but to wait and see.

  • @fennekin1750

    At least the Reboot-verse doesn’t have an excessive amount of military characters or anything. Let’s hope it stays that way. It’s for the better. No military propaganda or anything should be in a Transformers movie whatsoever. The Transformers are the focus, not humans and definitely not the military. If the military must be involved in a Transformers movie, then it should not come at the cost of the Transformers’ main focus or the rest of the movie’s plot/story. Bumblebee (2018) did it best out of all the live-action movies across the 2 universes/continuities.

  • @TheZamaron

    The Bay films went for the idea of being more “realistic”. So makes sense once the Transformers war becomes known to the U.S. government like in TF1 they’d investigate what the hell is going on, and upon learning enough would either fight both sides, or upon finding out who’s the “good guys” would side with the Autobots. That’s one thing the other kid focused series lack is realistic Human reactions, either the war goes mostly unknown, or they leave it mostly in the hands of the Bots, TF Prime did this well by having the military still fight the Cons, but Fowler was the liaison and the Bots were allowed alot of freedom, but if they fuck yo Fowler used to chew them out till he softened up to them. And let’s face it, in any case where an alien race wants to exterminate humanity, all of Humanity are the good guys in that story. Plus the US military in the real world does most of the time act defensively, or the war can be justified most of the time, how it’s fought and ends is where most of the controversy comes from. And realistically the US having the largest and most spread out and advanced military plus often leading world politics and having the most allies and friendly relations of the superpowers does make sense that we’d be the first reacting to any threat to Humanity as a whole, whether aliens or monsters.
