@@transformandgobricks7820 So was I. After this one I think Chris will nail another Thor movie with Thor being a heroic leader instead of the funny clown that Disney has been forcing him to do.
As a lifelong diehard Transformers fan, this is by far and away the best Transformers has ever been on the big screen. There are so, so many references and lore deep cuts, while still being unique and original. This is clearly a labor of love for everyone involved, and a near perfect masterpiece of a finished product, perfectly encapsulating what the Transformers mythos as a whole is supposed to feel like. This movie is a dream come true for me and a lot of other fans
My fav is Still Transformers the movie from 1986. I just always enjoy that movie from the animation, to the soundtrack, to the plot. It's such a comfort for me.
#SAVETFONE Edit: Also, this film isn't connected to any other transformers media. It's the beginning of a new universe that's not connected to the live action films or anything else! This was and still is such a great film, and it needs to be saved, so spread this hashtag around any and all social media, spread the word and #SAVETFONE
@@brrtpsave it from the awful marketing Unless you were willing to overlook the terrible trailers that did the movie no justice and just made it look like a crappy kids’ movie, you likely weren’t gonna bother with this movie I gave it a chance and saw it in theatres on Thanksgiving (Canadian) and it was so awesome
*THIS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST TRANSFORMERS MOVIE!!!* Everything from the stellar animation, music, the fight scenes and choreography, the story, the character arcs and fantastic voice acting was just incredible. Chris Hemsworth and Brian Tyree Henry truly blew me away, mainly because they absolutely killed it as Optimus and Megatron and brought a level of humanity to the characters as you truly understand where both of them are coming from and how much they care for each other as friends as it genuinely breaks your heart watching them fall apart. Brian Tyree Henry especially brought such a level of complex tragedy and emotional pain as D-16/Megatron that Ive never seen before when it comes to the character and honestly, he might be my new favourite take on Megatron. Usually Megatron has never been portrayed as a sympathetic villain who was a product of a corrupt system before in most media outside of the TF comics. I loved how you can see his thought process through his eyes and how he was genuinely happy being a miner and believed in the system, but after learning about the truth about Sentinel, his entire worldview shatters, and his mental state slowly collapses more and more. The moment he is mocked and tortured by Sentinel, D-16 finally has had enough, and the moment he accidentally shoots Orion, we see I'm going through a complete emotional breakdown seeing his best friend almost dead but also perceiving it as a betrayal as D-16 has always had to cover Orion and save him for all his recklessness. However, he still chooses to take the bullet because he is trying to save D-16 from making a terrible mistake, but ultimately, it is too late, and now only Megatron exists. Chris Hemsworth was also surprisingly excellent in Optimus Prime, and it really shocked me how much range he has as an actor/voice actor, as he sounded like a young Peter Cullen. I especially love his arc of growing to understand his responsibilities, and that scene where Orion inspires the miners to fight back against Sentinel was so empowering because it really shows what kind of person Orion is I love the detail of Orion kneeling down at the miners' level because, unlike Sentinel, he was one of them and saw all of them as friends and family and inspiring all of them like a good father figure, which is everything Optimus Prime should be, a noble, hopeful leader whos never afraid to be gentle or compassionate to others. The movie is also surprisingly dark, as the trailers did not do this movie justice. There are genuinely a few mature and gruesome moments that shocked me and made me question whether this was a PG movie? It may have some moments of fun and levity for kids, which is funny, but when it needs to, it knows when to take itself seriously. It knows that the audience is smart enough to understand the Transformers franchise lore, which I appreciate. Im just disappointed with how poorly Paramount marketed this movie, as it genuinely deserved better promotion for such a great movie. The fact that one guy on Twitter single-handedly promoted the movie better than Paramount themselves and got more people to check this masterpiece is truly remarkable accomplishment. Yet, the box office has many concerned that we might not even get a sequel, which I really hope this movie does get a trilogy of Transformers animated films because there is still so much potential to dive into the Civil War of Cybertron, the Quintessons, how Cybertron ultimately collapsed from the war and explore these characters on a deeper level.
I unfortunately had a childhood friend like D-16 (without the turning evil part). We were pretty much brothers and one day, all of that went away. After knowing each other for like 6-7 years, on the first day of 5th grade, he changed and I didn't even recognize my old friend anymore. Fantastic film, every time I watch this film, or watch reactors watch it, I can't stop thinking about my old friend, which really shows how good the writing is and how they made it so relatable. Best film of 2024 for me, followed by Deadpool & Wolverine, and Venom 3.
Same expierence, known bro since pre-k, after 6th grade we were no longer friends and he went down a different path. But I moved on and have new friends
Primus is the twin brother of Unicron. Both of them are the embodiments of good/evil and creation/chaos. Primus's very heart is the Allspark, the lifeforce of every Transformer, and Unicron has the Anti-Spark.
That makes me think unicorn will be a protagonist in the future considering Alpha Trion said “to protect the universe he transformed into cybertron” protect the universe from what?
@@tmac731 I hope that this new universe will focus more on the Great War in terms of Cybertron but the use of "to protect the universe" isn't very telling. Depending on the continuity Primus turning into Cybertron was either a side effect after trapping both Unicron and himself in asteroids or we can infer that Primus sacrificed himself to create the Primes who in term cast Unicron out into stasis.
When you think about it, by forcing the miners to unknowingly mine Cybertron for Energon, the Quintessons were actually slowly killing Primus, which is their goal. They were killing two birds with one stone: 1. Kill Primus and the Transformers, and 2. Harvest Energon and grow their own empire. I keep drawing comparisons between them and the Combine from Half Life 2. Pretty scary enemies.
I never knew this movie would get a massive audience. Especially from Transformers fans. But, this movie actually has some great visuals, amazing animation, and actually some funny moments. So, I guess this movie cooked.
Just so you get how strong D actually is: D smashed through the mining tunnel with his BARE HANDS. He held back Darkwing’s fist ONE HANDED. AND there’s a deleted scene where it shows he was literally leaving DENTS in a steel punching bag.
I learned about it just recently but it turned out that the composer of this movie, is Brian Tyler! Same guy that did the music for Transformers: Prime! And you can actually hear some bits of the sad theme from the show in the scene where Orion is granted the Matrix!
I noticed that in the theater and started tearing up. When I was a kid, transformers prime was my favorite transformers animated series ever, so hearing that theme brought joy to me.
As a Transformers fan since G1 and the 90’s era, this movie makes me really happy to see Elita One get more focused and action. Scarlet Johansson fits perfectly for the character like she did with Black widow. I hope our favorite female Autobot lives longer in surviving the upcoming Autobot-Decepticon Civil War in future sequels. The only animated show where Elita one I know alive with Optimus Prime is in Earthspark. None of us want Orion/Optimus to suffered like he is in Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy Netflix series.
I love this movie so much. I got chills whenever TF lore was talked about, and I actually teared up a little when Orion becomes Optimus. They truly cared about this project, and is oozes out of this film

@@connorredshaw5650 thats also a callback to the 1986 Transformers movie where Megatron had "battle damage" that looked almost exactly like tears during his fight with Optimus
I took my niece and nephew to this movie. I sat next to my nephew and when Orion was escaping from the guards, when the guard did the first transformation of the movie, he was like “woah!” 🥹 When it was finished, they were both like are they going to make another one! We NEED A SEQUEL MAN!
Everyone thought this is gonna be a comedy! But I knew it, Iiii knew that it's gonna be sad and serious too! This tells the origin story of Optimus and Megatron, I knew it's gonna be heartbreaking 💔!
The racing sequence is my absolute favorite part of this movie. It's like a Cybertronian version of Nascar!🏎🏍🏁 Fun fact: Transformers veteran and VA Steve Blum made cameo as the Iacon 5,000 Race Announcer.
Best TF movie, I loved this film so god damn much! praying for a sequel. The miner jokes were on point lmao. And the animation…just perfect. I’ve enjoyed transformers since I was a toddler, and this film satisfied me as a fan. And if you ever want more transformers content, I’d highly recommend Transformers Prime, that show is amazing, and has the same composer as this film Also… …NAPOLEAN DYNAMITE
11:52 he wasn’t strong enough to beat them all, he waited after they were weaker from fighting the enemies for a while and then snuck up on some of them
YES As a lifelong transformers enjoyer. This film made me cry in the opening scene because of nostalgia from the explanation of the backstory. I love all the references to previous media hidden in the movie, designs and even the soundtrack. I love the hints of transformers prime that bleed into the primes music. I love the nods to "the death of optimus prime" in the fall as well as the fall of cybertron reference. So much stuff packed into this one. Loved it so much
LIFE LONG Transformers fan and this movie is what we needed. So mad that more didn't go out to see it in theaters which may squash it's chance for a sequel. It was SO good and what the fandom needed.
Brian Tyree Henry really out did himself with his incredible performance and his deep understanding of Megatron since always wanted to play the villains. Every villain of his and her own Story. D-16 is not only a product of Cybertron’s failed system and takes on Sentinel Prime’s oppression though violent means all the social injustices he had experiences forged his transcendence into Megatron and building up to a rivalry with Orion turned Optimus Prime (due to wanting the same goal of a unified Cybertron but have different viewpoints). But their friendship is doomed since they discovered that shocking realization their leader Sentinel Prime has sold out Cybertron to the Quintessons after betraying his fellow Prime brothers and sisters, and ruled his planet through oppression. D-16 has put too much faith in the system he has held on to until his worldview was shattered that boils up to anger and a personal vengeance after being suffered of the social injustices while Orion still kept his optimism by exposing the truth of Sentinel's corruption. This what makes D-16 a much more of a compelling hero-turned-villain and tragic character in Transformers history. And the rift between two brothers. Both D-16 and Orion both wanted a unified Cybertron but each have different ways to bringing it into fruition.
Literally my favourite movie. I’ve watched it 7 times and still can’t get enough of it. Love Megatrons character and his speech at the end just immaculate. “THE AGE OF PRIMES HAS ENDED. NO MORE FALSE PROPHETS!!!” Goes so hard
Orion Pax/Optimus Prime: Chris Hemsworth D-16/Megatron: Brian Tyree Henry Elita-1: Scarlett Johansson B-127: Keegan Michael Key Alpha Trion: Lawrence Fishbourne Sentinel Prime: John Hamm Starscream: Steve Buscemi Soundwave: John Bailey Shockwave: Jason Konopisos-Alvarez Airachnid: Vanessa Liguori Darkwing: Isaac C. Singleton Jr. And one of the guards in the opening is voiced by Steve Blum! So yeah, the cast for this movie is stacked!
And Soundwave is played by Honest Trailers Jon Bailey who played Soundwave and Shockwave in Bumblebee's opening (he also va both characters in the HISHE for Bumblebee) he's also Optimus in a few things (even was the temp va for Optimus in Bumblebee which was accidentally left in the film's marketing material), Megatron in 3 things alongside his Optimus actually he played a lot of TF characters he also joined the TFone hype gang on Twitter for weeks (even changed his pfp to him wearing a Soundwave shirt)
Something fun about this film that I rarely see pointed out is that, whilst the focus is setting up Megatron's enmity with Optimus Prime, it also sets up Shockwave's Generation One conflict with Elita and her squad, and that very rarely gets adapted.
After seeing that final battle in the movie, at the cinema, I had to change my pants! It was amazing! I absolutely love how they use their ability to Transform in fights, showing that when it comes to fighting, they have almost no limits!
This movie is BEAUTIFULLY done. Firstly, they made the supposed metallically world vibrant & diverse. We were shown neon lighted Iacon, dimmed sub-levels, and beautiful surface with aurora and cute wild life. The other subtle beauty is their EYES. For a supposed robots they have very expressive eyes that make us immersive with their feeling.
As a lifelong Transformers fan this is the continuity I want to see more of the most! I loved this movie and you could tell the crew had a love for Transformers
I grew up in the 80s/90s watching Transformers, and I remember when I saw the first one with Shia- seeing Optimus Prime for the first time was awesome...but seeing Megatron for the first time gave me goosebumps!
Seeing this movie in theaters was incredible. Went in completely blind and had no idea what is was about. Absolutely incredible movie. The jokes are perfectly time and the story was incredible. I hope they are making more and this is the first of a triliogy
Just saw this in theaters last weekend with my nephew and we loved it! This is up there with the OG first Transformers with Shia in terms of storyline, action sequences, heart and just pure entertainment. Plus It had just enough comic relief. I thought it was dope
I love these kinds of stories, brothers divided. Such as Anakin and obi wan, Lucifer and Michael, etc. honestly one of my favorite animated movies(top 5 imo), and my favorite movie of the year. Its most definitely the best transformers movie, an amazing backstory to one of the most iconic rivalries in history. And I also like how it showed the power dynamic between Optimus and Megatron, while Megs may have gotten the power if the strongest prime at the end of the movie, he still fell short in the face of the chosen one, Optimus prime. Also, i like how this movie sets up the difference in power between Optimus/Megatron, and star scream. It kinda makes sense tho, d16 had the cog of a prime, so hed obviously be stronger.
I grew up in the 80s/90s watching Transformers, and I remember when I saw the first one with Shia- seeing Optimus Prime for the first time was awesome...but seeing Megatron for the first time gave me goosebumps! It was definitely the opposite when watching this movie when both characters emerge as Optimus Prime and Megatron.
There’s 3 Things I have to clarify, 1. I’m ok with the Quintessons not showing up, I’m aware how much of a Threat they are but the whole point of this Movie is how Optimus Prime and Megatron began the Formation of the Autobots and Decepticons, IF the Quintessons had appeared more often it would ruin the Film and we won’t get any Sentinel Screen Time, 2. Elita wasn’t the one that had the Idea of using Arachnid to Expose Sentinel, It was Orion who did a Quick Thinking when Arachnid said “I can see Everything” showing how Clever Pax is with his Sharp Edge and Mind, and 3. Bee was done good enough, I get that the Character didn’t evolve but Bee has done Well Enough, his presence is literally the Beginning to Pax and D16’s Journey to who they are destined to become as it was a Red Flag when they found out that there’s 50 Sub Levels instead of 40, his Creation Steve has the Map, and while I thought he was going to ruin the Movie with the Comic Relief I’m surprised there’s Layers of Humanity especially when Sentinel captures him and Dee and Dee stood up when Bee didn’t want him to stand up because he doesn’t want to see his Friends Hurt, like the Quintessons I’m pretty sure Bee will Develop especially when he losses his Voice in the War, anyway this Movie was amazing, not only is it one of the Best Movies of 2024, but it’s clearly the Best Transformers Movie of all Time, the Voice Casting was Great, the Story with the Evolution of Optimus Prime and Megatron is Interesting and Heartbreaking, Sentinel Prime is one of the Best Modern Villains in a Long Time that he’s definitely giving Homelander Vibes, and the Animation and Setup are Flawless, 10 out of 10, I’m hoping this gets a Trilogy because it deserves it and I would love to see more content from this and the Franchise.
I'm a big transformers fan, and this movie made me cry like 5 times lol. it is such a perfect origin story and there's so many references to other bits of transformers media. the animation is insane, the plotline is great, and the dynamic between orion and d-16 and their fallout is so poignant and hard hitting. the tonal shift when d-16 says he wants to kill sentinel is so palpable. the implications of this whole movie are so grim despite the cheesy jokes and colorful atmosphere. love it. i really hope we get a sequel 😩😩
Transformers One really is a fantastic movie, one that fans have been asking for, for ages! It uses a lot of ideas, characters, and story from many parts of the franchise, including the comics.
I had non-stop chills while watching this, it’s a masterpiece that deserves more recognition and it completely changes the view of other movies. Anyways, W reaction, keep it up
Really hope this gets a continuation- we were all deceived by a trailer which focused only on the juvenile jokes. Best piece of Transformers media since Transformers Prime. Naturally a lot of this backstory was taken from comic book lore exploring what caused Orion Pax and D-16 to become the hero and tyrant we know them as. Very X-Men: First Class.
Notice how with D, all it took was a single blast to kill Orion. But with Megatron, he didn't get a single mark on Optimus. In fact the only mark was the axe to Megatron's blaster.
THIS MOVIE IS THE MOVIE!! This movie absolutely DESTROYED MY NOSTALGIA I had with the Bayverse and became my FAVORITE TRANSFORMERS MOVIE, EVER!!! 100/10!!!!
Always loved your vids - you've managed to strike a fine balance between grounded commentary and video pacing imo - and this one is no exception! I loved the movie so much, I caught it in theatres four times. Truly an incredible movie all around, with little wasted time. It's made with so much effort. Really hope more people get it on digital so we can get a competent sequel with the same creative team and budget.
Honestly one thing that the bay films doesn’t do well is show the past relationship of megatron and prime other than one line in the last knight where megatron says “we were brothers once”. If they kept the original ending to Dark of the moon it woulda been so much better and given us a view to that past relationship
Fun fact: Alpha Trion, the robot that tells the truth about Sentinel Prime, is actually voiced by Laurence Fishburne, the same actor who played Morpheus in Matrix. Once more times telling another people is living into a lie
This movie was honestly top tier and just amazing!!!🤩 the concept was completely new and unexpected, but so unique and just enjoyable❤!! loved your reaction Seb!!
When I saw the trailers for this I was like, yeah okay, D-16 voice is okay that's fine. But like in the latter half of the film, Bryan Tyree Henry (D-16's voice actor) just LOCKS IN and never unlocks. He sounds so much like old Kratos, very commanding and rage filled, very fitting for Megatron.
Seb you need to react to Transformers Prime you will definetly love that show it has 3 seasons and each episode is 20-22 mins you will love that show for sure a lot of us here grew up watching that show I swear your missing on that show
This is close to the origins of Optimus Prime from the G1 cartoon. Orion Pax is the first name of Optimus in the cartoon before he was called Optimus Prime. Alita One was called Ariel before she got the name Alita One in the G1 cartoon.
This movie is BADASSATRON!

Everyone thought this is gonna be a comedy! But I knew it, Iiii knew that it's gonna be sad and serious too! This tells the origin story of Optimus and Megatron, I knew it's gonna be heartbreaking 💔!
Big shout out to Keegan Michael Key and John Hamm as Bumblebee and Sentinel Prime! THESE GUYS ABSOLUTELY NAILED IT!!!
Transformers One needs a sequel, I am so bagging for it ❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏
That "BADASSATRONNNNNN" after B-127 blasted one of the quintessons was so funny for me, bro just obliterated an enemy and shouted his own nickname
not a quintesson
The racing sequence is my absolute favorite part of this movie. It's like a Cybertronian version of Nascar!🏎🏍🏁
Fun fact: Transformers veteran and VA Steve Blum made cameo as the Iacon 5,000 Race Announcer.
Best TF movie, I loved this film so god damn much! praying for a sequel. The miner jokes were on point lmao. And the animation…just perfect. I’ve enjoyed transformers since I was a toddler, and this film satisfied me as a fan. And if you ever want more transformers content, I’d highly recommend Transformers Prime, that show is amazing, and has the same composer as this film
Also…
…NAPOLEAN DYNAMITE
11:52 he wasn’t strong enough to beat them all, he waited after they were weaker from fighting the enemies for a while and then snuck up on some of them
Watching this on my break, hell yeah dude
Please watch the show Transformers prime
@@sharisdsilva143I’ve seen it
I watched this movie days ago and OH MY GOD, WHAT AN AMAZING MOVIE IT WAS!
Orion also said he felt like he had enough power to drill down and touch Primus himself.
And so he did. When he fell.
The wild robot you should watch next it's a beautiful movie
YES!!!
Please watch the show Transformers prime
Seb has to watch tfp
How did this movie not make a billion dollars

Let’s goooo you reacted to it I knew you would like it THIS MOVIE MADE ME CRY🔥🔥🔥🔥
YES
As a lifelong transformers enjoyer. This film made me cry in the opening scene because of nostalgia from the explanation of the backstory. I love all the references to previous media hidden in the movie, designs and even the soundtrack. I love the hints of transformers prime that bleed into the primes music. I love the nods to "the death of optimus prime" in the fall as well as the fall of cybertron reference. So much stuff packed into this one. Loved it so much
LIFE LONG Transformers fan and this movie is what we needed. So mad that more didn't go out to see it in theaters which may squash it's chance for a sequel. It was SO good and what the fandom needed.
I just have no words for this movie! It was... it was just... Perfect, PERFECTION!
27:40 ts was so funny for no reason😭😭
Ikr 😂 I was laughing in the theater
Brian Tyree Henry really out did himself with his incredible performance and his deep understanding of Megatron since always wanted to play the villains. Every villain of his and her own Story.
D-16 is not only a product of Cybertron’s failed system and takes on Sentinel Prime’s oppression though violent means all the social injustices he had experiences forged his transcendence into Megatron and building up to a rivalry with Orion turned Optimus Prime (due to wanting the same goal of a unified Cybertron but have different viewpoints).
But their friendship is doomed since they discovered that shocking realization their leader Sentinel Prime has sold out Cybertron to the Quintessons after betraying his fellow Prime brothers and sisters, and ruled his planet through oppression. D-16 has put too much faith in the system he has held on to until his worldview was shattered that boils up to anger and a personal vengeance after being suffered of the social injustices while Orion still kept his optimism by exposing the truth of Sentinel's corruption.
This what makes D-16 a much more of a compelling hero-turned-villain and tragic character in Transformers history. And the rift between two brothers. Both D-16 and Orion both wanted a unified Cybertron but each have different ways to bringing it into fruition.
15:52 Is that a Lego Movie reference I smell? A man of culture!
Literally my favourite movie. I’ve watched it 7 times and still can’t get enough of it. Love Megatrons character and his speech at the end just immaculate. “THE AGE OF PRIMES HAS ENDED. NO MORE FALSE PROPHETS!!!” Goes so hard
Seb if u loved this so much, pls try out Transformers Prime !!!!
Fr that show was so good
Orion Pax/Optimus Prime: Chris Hemsworth
D-16/Megatron: Brian Tyree Henry
Elita-1: Scarlett Johansson
B-127: Keegan Michael Key
Alpha Trion: Lawrence Fishbourne
Sentinel Prime: John Hamm
Starscream: Steve Buscemi
Soundwave: John Bailey
Shockwave: Jason Konopisos-Alvarez
Airachnid: Vanessa Liguori
Darkwing: Isaac C. Singleton Jr.
And one of the guards in the opening is voiced by Steve Blum!
So yeah, the cast for this movie is stacked!
And Soundwave is played by Honest Trailers Jon Bailey who played Soundwave and Shockwave in Bumblebee's opening (he also va both characters in the HISHE for Bumblebee) he's also Optimus in a few things (even was the temp va for Optimus in Bumblebee which was accidentally left in the film's marketing material), Megatron in 3 things alongside his Optimus actually he played a lot of TF characters he also joined the TFone hype gang on Twitter for weeks (even changed his pfp to him wearing a Soundwave shirt)
25:30 I can’t be the only on that hears Kratos right?
ZEUS, YOUR SON HAS RETURNED
10:22 Their planet is a giant Transformer. It would've make sense that the planet would change instantly. Indicating that Primus is alive.
Something fun about this film that I rarely see pointed out is that, whilst the focus is setting up Megatron's enmity with Optimus Prime, it also sets up Shockwave's Generation One conflict with Elita and her squad, and that very rarely gets adapted.
This Transformers movie doesn’t deserve this much hate. It’s a phenomenal animated films besides Inside Out 2!
The Decepticon symbol is based off Megatronus's face.
Well, duh. Also, in MTMTE comic line a character named Tarn wears such a mask with this symbol.
22:52 yeah is like a demon 😂😂😂😂😂
After seeing that final battle in the movie, at the cinema, I had to change my pants! It was amazing! I absolutely love how they use their ability to Transform in fights, showing that when it comes to fighting, they have almost no limits!
4:37 BRO! THIS IS SO FUNNY CONSIDERING IT'S THE MOST POPULAR READING OF THE TWO'S RELATIONSHIP!!😂
This movie is BEAUTIFULLY done.
Firstly, they made the supposed metallically world vibrant & diverse. We were shown neon lighted Iacon, dimmed sub-levels, and beautiful surface with aurora and cute wild life.
The other subtle beauty is their EYES. For a supposed robots they have very expressive eyes that make us immersive with their feeling.
As a lifelong Transformers fan this is the continuity I want to see more of the most! I loved this movie and you could tell the crew had a love for Transformers
Been a Transformers fan most of my life since watching Beast wars as a kid and I loved this movie!!! This is Probably the best Transformers movie.
Give Transformers: Prime a try. It's by far the best Transformers product ever made and it's fan favourite.
I grew up in the 80s/90s watching Transformers, and I remember when I saw the first one with Shia- seeing Optimus Prime for the first time was awesome...but seeing Megatron for the first time gave me goosebumps!
Seeing this movie in theaters was incredible. Went in completely blind and had no idea what is was about. Absolutely incredible movie. The jokes are perfectly time and the story was incredible. I hope they are making more and this is the first of a triliogy
I haven’t seen this yet. You are great Seb. Please watch chicken little next!
*"No more false Prophets! The Age of Prime's has ended!"* Uses a Prime's Cog?
Just saw this in theaters last weekend with my nephew and we loved it! This is up there with the OG first Transformers with Shia in terms of storyline, action sequences, heart and just pure entertainment. Plus It had just enough comic relief. I thought it was dope
As a huge Transformers fan, this one is hands down the greatest.
I love these kinds of stories, brothers divided. Such as Anakin and obi wan, Lucifer and Michael, etc. honestly one of my favorite animated movies(top 5 imo), and my favorite movie of the year. Its most definitely the best transformers movie, an amazing backstory to one of the most iconic rivalries in history. And I also like how it showed the power dynamic between Optimus and Megatron, while Megs may have gotten the power if the strongest prime at the end of the movie, he still fell short in the face of the chosen one, Optimus prime. Also, i like how this movie sets up the difference in power between Optimus/Megatron, and star scream. It kinda makes sense tho, d16 had the cog of a prime, so hed obviously be stronger.
I grew up in the 80s/90s watching Transformers, and I remember when I saw the first one with Shia- seeing Optimus Prime for the first time was awesome...but seeing Megatron for the first time gave me goosebumps! It was definitely the opposite when watching this movie when both characters emerge as Optimus Prime and Megatron.
One of the things which I love about this movie is how it tells the origins of the Transformers, their Creator Primus, and the 13 original Primes!
There’s 3 Things I have to clarify, 1. I’m ok with the Quintessons not showing up, I’m aware how much of a Threat they are but the whole point of this Movie is how Optimus Prime and Megatron began the Formation of the Autobots and Decepticons, IF the Quintessons had appeared more often it would ruin the Film and we won’t get any Sentinel Screen Time, 2. Elita wasn’t the one that had the Idea of using Arachnid to Expose Sentinel, It was Orion who did a Quick Thinking when Arachnid said “I can see Everything” showing how Clever Pax is with his Sharp Edge and Mind, and 3. Bee was done good enough, I get that the Character didn’t evolve but Bee has done Well Enough, his presence is literally the Beginning to Pax and D16’s Journey to who they are destined to become as it was a Red Flag when they found out that there’s 50 Sub Levels instead of 40, his Creation Steve has the Map, and while I thought he was going to ruin the Movie with the Comic Relief I’m surprised there’s Layers of Humanity especially when Sentinel captures him and Dee and Dee stood up when Bee didn’t want him to stand up because he doesn’t want to see his Friends Hurt, like the Quintessons I’m pretty sure Bee will Develop especially when he losses his Voice in the War, anyway this Movie was amazing, not only is it one of the Best Movies of 2024, but it’s clearly the Best Transformers Movie of all Time, the Voice Casting was Great, the Story with the Evolution of Optimus Prime and Megatron is Interesting and Heartbreaking, Sentinel Prime is one of the Best Modern Villains in a Long Time that he’s definitely giving Homelander Vibes, and the Animation and Setup are Flawless, 10 out of 10, I’m hoping this gets a Trilogy because it deserves it and I would love to see more content from this and the Franchise.
1:19 bruh bro gt legs to run fir days
Orion’s little noise when he flips off Darkwing is a callback to the OG transformation noise.
I'm a big transformers fan, and this movie made me cry like 5 times lol. it is such a perfect origin story and there's so many references to other bits of transformers media. the animation is insane, the plotline is great, and the dynamic between orion and d-16 and their fallout is so poignant and hard hitting. the tonal shift when d-16 says he wants to kill sentinel is so palpable. the implications of this whole movie are so grim despite the cheesy jokes and colorful atmosphere. love it. i really hope we get a sequel 😩😩
Megatronus Prime looks so badass in this film
Best Transformers film in years, up their with Bumblebee, Rise of the Beasts and the orignal animated film from the 80s.
As a long time Transformers fan, this is by far my favorite Transformers movie, too.
Transformers One really is a fantastic movie, one that fans have been asking for, for ages! It uses a lot of ideas, characters, and story from many parts of the franchise, including the comics.
As a lifelong fan, I loved this movie, and it's easily the best modern day TF film. Saw it twice in theaters, and bought it digital day one.
I had non-stop chills while watching this, it’s a masterpiece that deserves more recognition and it completely changes the view of other movies. Anyways, W reaction, keep it up
Really hope this gets a continuation- we were all deceived by a trailer which focused only on the juvenile jokes. Best piece of Transformers media since Transformers Prime. Naturally a lot of this backstory was taken from comic book lore exploring what caused Orion Pax and D-16 to become the hero and tyrant we know them as. Very X-Men: First Class.
21:41 this was the scene when I was with my dad and I was moving my head everywhere looking for familiar bots
I was doing that too 😂
Lifelong transformers fan here. 12/10. Goated movie. New favorite transformers movie for sure
Notice how with D, all it took was a single blast to kill Orion.
But with Megatron, he didn't get a single mark on Optimus.
In fact the only mark was the axe to Megatron's blaster.
THIS MOVIE IS THE MOVIE!! This movie absolutely DESTROYED MY NOSTALGIA I had with the Bayverse and became my FAVORITE TRANSFORMERS MOVIE, EVER!!!
100/10!!!!
This movie was the best origin story for the transformers!!💙❤️🖤🤍
Always loved your vids - you've managed to strike a fine balance between grounded commentary and video pacing imo - and this one is no exception! I loved the movie so much, I caught it in theatres four times. Truly an incredible movie all around, with little wasted time. It's made with so much effort. Really hope more people get it on digital so we can get a competent sequel with the same creative team and budget.
Honestly one thing that the bay films doesn’t do well is show the past relationship of megatron and prime other than one line in the last knight where megatron says “we were brothers once”. If they kept the original ending to Dark of the moon it woulda been so much better and given us a view to that past relationship
27:24 I'm never going to be able to watch this scene normally again after having Megatron's tear stains pointed out to me.
finally, a guy who enjoyed BADASSATRON as much as I did. You're a champ
Facts , megatron reminds me a lot of anakin/vader
Best plot twist ever! Sebscreen finding out the movie is about Meagtron 😅
Fun fact: Alpha Trion, the robot that tells the truth about Sentinel Prime, is actually voiced by Laurence Fishburne, the same actor who played Morpheus in Matrix. Once more times telling another people is living into a lie
ABSOLUTE CİNEMA 🔥🔥🔥
This movie was honestly top tier and just amazing!!!🤩 the concept was completely new and unexpected, but so unique and just enjoyable❤!! loved your reaction Seb!!
This movie took "We were brothers once!!.... Once........." to an extreme level.
As Megatron is leaving, you can see dried tear stains under his optics, because he cried when he dropped Orion.
I was crying when it comes to the end of the movie, hope to see the new part of TF1
When I saw the trailers for this I was like, yeah okay, D-16 voice is okay that's fine.
But like in the latter half of the film, Bryan Tyree Henry (D-16's voice actor) just LOCKS IN and never unlocks. He sounds so much like old Kratos, very commanding and rage filled, very fitting for Megatron.
Seb you need to react to Transformers Prime you will definetly love that show it has 3 seasons and each episode is 20-22 mins you will love that show for sure a lot of us here grew up watching that show I swear your missing on that show
Absolutely love this movie
Hopefully we can get some sequels
I was expecting a stan bush song at the end of this movie but that "you dont have the touch, or the power" reference made up for it.
I know its on digital. But anyone that still can GO SEE IT IN THEATRRES
I thought it would be bad because it was animated, but Badasstrooonn
This is close to the origins of Optimus Prime from the G1 cartoon. Orion Pax is the first name of Optimus in the cartoon before he was called Optimus Prime. Alita One was called Ariel before she got the name Alita One in the G1 cartoon.
