Hi.
Oh Yeah!
No
You forgot megatron having anti matter manipulation, and both can fly, both are point 1 percenters the transformer equivalent of marvels mutants. Both also survive fighting, Grimlock, predaking, Shockwave, Unicorn Nova Prime, Nemesis prime, Galvatron, Unicron, the Decptigod/ D vold, Starcream and Shockwave and both fought Megatronus aka the fallen
What I win
After seeing the movie, I know its from a different continuity, but Megatron's line "we were brothers once" with Optimus replying "once", hits even deeper and holds more meaning now.
@hideyawives Because in some continuities (like the G1 cartoon) they barely knew eachother.
New "he's my friend" "so was i"
@@javiervasquez625 In G1 cartoon, Megatron just shot Orion Pax who's in his way which in turn Alpha Trion rebuilt Orion into Optimus Prime.
@hideyawivesevery continuity has its own history, and in the original cartoon, Optimus and Megatron were never close before the war
Is one of the reasons why Megatron wanted to take down Optimus Prime is because of how he got the Matrix of leadership?
Optimus Prime’s speeches are so moving he could convince a high school basketball team they could beat the Lakers
Without lebron they probably can
To swing for the LA lakers
And they'll lose horribly but the fight would be worth it
@@Canation89"im the swingger for the LA Lakers"
@@Reflection554ahhh classic Vanoss reference 😂
Optimus Prime: Transform and ROLL OUT!!!
Megatron: Transform and RISE UP!!!
Spider-Man is better (I know your weakness)
@@FatKratos69 TF does Spider-man have to do with Transformers???
@@theoutlawking9123 Spider-Man da 🐐
@@FatKratos69 Spider-man's a Pansy, F him!
@@theoutlawking9123 RISE UP! RISE UP! RISE UP!
One shall stand... one shall fall.
And yet, they've been fighting eachother endlessly across multiple continuities and timelines.
@@javiervasquez625 Like Batman and Joker
Orion Pax & Megatronus both wished to end corruption & bring equality to Cybertron, but were torn apart by their methods, Orion sought arbitration, believing peaceful reform was possible, but Megatronus (who shortened his name to Megatron) sought violent revolution, believing it to be the only course of action against Sentinel Prime’s corrupt government.
In some continuities (like the G1 cartoon) it was due to the Decepticons been part of the gladiatorial brand of Transformers created by the Quintessons while the Autobots were the factory worker brand.
@@javiervasquez625 The Decepticons literally chose violence in a nutshell.
Hence why Optimus was given the matrix
It was cool seeing where he got his name from and how the movie showed their branching off in ideology
"What would you be without me, Prime?"
"Time to find out"
If you think about it Optimus and Megatron are like Professor X and Magneto.
Yeah. That’s why I prefer the G1 origin of Optimus Prime: As a young Orion Pax, he looked up to Megatron only to be dismissed and severely wounded by the latter. Pax was sent to Alpha Trion for repairs, and became Optimus Prime. It was like Syndrome’s in The Incredibles, but almost 2 decades earlier. IMO the fan-turned-arch enemy was fresher than best-buds turned worst enemies backstory.
Optimus better than Xavier tho
The Origin Story of How Former Best Friends, Colleges, Amigos and Comrades in Arms, now turned Longtime Archenemies, Rivals, Worthy Opponents and Worthy Adversaries: Optimus Prime of the Autobots and Megatron of the Decepticons, of the *Transformers* franchises
Man transformers ONE WAS EPIC! and its evident that its creators have a lot of love for transformers. This movie answered ALLL the lingering questions we ever had about transformers as a franchise. Its beautiful.
The Transformers: Prime introduction narrated by Ratchet (Jeffrey Coombs) is still one of the best depictions of the origins of Orion Pax/Megatronus and how the two leaders came to be. It also sounds god tier epic and inspires hope when you hear the story. I hope Transformers One faithfully captures the awe, wisdom and cunning of how Optimus and Megatron came to be.
So Optimus Prime basically is the original robot cop 😂😂
11:45 Uuuhhh…. I’m sorry, did I miss something?! Megatron is posing for The Killing Joke!!
I feel you are one of those RUclipsrs that made my child hood awesome man I remember watching your breakdowns of the DC injustice timeline with my elder brother, been watching you since I was like 15 and now I am 25. Time really flies, it’s good to know you’re alive and well my friend.
G1 TF Optimus Prime Origin is still epic..
I really enjoyed the new movie.
Im glad they had a balance of seriousness and jokes.
But it’s a cool refresh to the the origins of these factions
Was there DEI in it?
Was there woke ideology in it?
Were there LGBTQIA2S+ moments?
@@truthspreader1996 if you don’t get those NPC comments outta here 🤦🏽♂️
Are you that afraid to go see a movie because it might hurt your feelings?
@@smittycal Thank you for your answer.
You forgot to mention that Megatrons first alt mode was a gun.
True, but not as cool as a tank.
@@connorcaldwell588Or jet/helicopter. But I prefer when he Triple Changes into tank and jet/VTOL helicopter.
@@AngiraBlu96Wait where can I see that? Or is it in the comics?
@@petejohnes8442 The jet/tank one is a usual combo, technically within the past 2-ish decades. Especially in some toys, as those are the typical modes he turns into.
The VTOL helicopter one is seen in Animated and Earthspark.
Saw Transformers One... had low expectations... ended leaving the movies LOVING IT! Definitely watching again at the theaters.
This was a great summary! Much better then just reading the words that already on the comics themselves
Can you do the history of magneto, judge dredd, Cassie hack, qwenpool, hit monkey, vamperrella, moon girl & devil dinosaur and league of extraordinary gentlemen please
“You still fight for the weak and that’s why you lose” - Megatron
I always liked his pistol mode best. Also the fact that the nearest Decepticon could weld him as a powerful weapon.
I'm Badass Atron!
Great. They are going the route of Charles Xavier and Magnetos relationship. Friends now enemies.
I loved the movie, especially the “ u don’t have the touch, and certainly not the power” line
Cant wait for more great content from this channel!
Honestly i love megatron especially in the movie when the dude jumps and transforms into a freaking jet 🔥🔥💀💀
I hope to see Transformers One soon, as I heard it is a really good movie. 🍿
I've been reading the Enegeronverse books recently. There is something so special about giant robots hitting each other with wrestling moves.
The movie was EXCELLENT!!!!!!!
I ❤ transformers, my son collects them and now my grandson loves them too.❤
“I could say this in another way but I don’t wanna” god, pls protect this man 😂👌
Arris… this MeUndies ad was.. just.. 😂😂
I like the Gen 1 origin better because its simple, especially Megatron greed for energon causing the planet to lose much of its bountiful resources and centuries of war that ruined the planet.
How many of you remember seeing Optimus Prime and Megatron fighting alongside each other in the Transformers Earthspark show?
These two have the most iconic rivalry.
They have the most pointless rivalry no real back story, just stories thrown in the air by whoever decides to make a movie, carton etc.
@@rohit65132blame Hashbro for not letting any seties have a proper ending because yhey still chase selling toys to kids. However you can't deny the potential of this franchise
@@rohit65132 Like Batman and Joker.
I'd say 2nd to scorpion and sub zero
@@rohit65132you could say that about any piece of media. Not deep at all.
TFP had the best origin story.
Orion Pax as a librarian while D-16 as a gladiator.
Saw the movie last night, was pretty good!
Transformer Prime was the best Transformer show ever
Transformers One is a great Origin Story for them. Absolutely loved it, especially B-127 aka Bumblebee aka BADASSATRON
perfection!
My favourite origin for them is the Marvel one where they are gladiatorial rivals.
Can you please do a video on the history of Howard the Duck from Marvel comics? I'm so curious to learn about him and his story. He seems to be such a hidden favorite.
Soundwave and Hot Shot next
Movie was so good
Fun fact for those unfamiliar:
• The Matrix of Leadership was originally the jewel within the Star Saber’s hilt, which belonged to the 1st Prime, Prima, who was the oldest and the leader of the 13 Primes, very 1st Cybertronians made to aid Primus (*a.k.a. Cybertron’s true form and basically “Robo-God”*).
• Alpha Trion is the 3rd of the 13 Primes.
• The 12th Prime, Megatronus (*Megatronus Prime by fans, to avoid confusion*), is the Fallen. As in the one from Revenge of the Fallen.
• The 13th Prime, the “Arisen,” who was the youngest and the mediator, reincarnated into Orion Pax/Optimus Prime.
6:05 TF prime had the best origin of optimus and magatron
FINALLY!!!!
For me, the G1 80s cartoon origin is my favorite. I saw Tramsformers one twice on the same day & loved it 💖😍💙💜👍👍 & can't wait to see your review of the movie.
Can you do history of Cyclone, Rhino, Sandman, Chameleon, Scorpion and the Human Fly along with Kurt Connors the Lizard. Also can you do the history of the Flash Villains like Turtle, Magenta, Cobalt Blue, Mirror Master and Top?
Please do an origin story on the Dinobots and the Beast Wars. Neither of which EVER get enough or even PROPER credit. Especially in the recent years, with Age of Extinction and Rise of the Beasts
Movie was awesome!
And in most continuities Megatron becomes Galavtron making him more of "I'M HIM"
Great Video Dude, I’m Gonna Go See The New Transformers Film With My Dad On Sunday This Weekend. 👍❤️🤩❤️🙌❤️🥳❤️👏
Can you make a thunderbolts history?
Keep up the great work guys!
I was never a fan of Optimus and Megatron being friends once. But, I am looking forward to this movie!
Saw the movie. It was great!
I love megatrons G1 form!!!
Oh, yeah, I'm going to see this film in theaters!
god i'd love a video just covering different transformers comic continuities cuz there just isn't alot channels that cover transformers comics
I must say, this movie blows my mind.
I think Transformers One is taking more from the IDW origin for Megatron with him and Orion being miners and part of Cybertron's lower class and mixing in a little from the Prime cartoon.
also, you said Iacon wrong, it's an "I" not and "L", and I got my hands on a copy of Astonishing Times.
I am a sucker for best friends turned arch enemies
'TRANSFORMERS .. ROBOTS IN DISGUISE' ..
Autobots roll out
Megatron: DO AS I COMMAND!
When are we ever going to see a History Of Sailor Moon episode?
you’re asking a comic channel to cover manga 😭
@oataraxia he coverd dragon ball
From TFP, Megatron and Orion’s relationship Is that Megatron Is a gladiator that acts as a mentor to Orion a clerk/worker, Megatron becomes Megatron from envy
From TF:One, The story says that both D-16 and Orion are colleagues, Miners In this story D-16 becomes Megatron from hating Sentinel and Orion becomes a Prime by dying and being revived
In the original comics it somehow follows TFP slightly
Legendary
I love you guys
I know my views won't be appreciated by many, But Michael Bay's Transformers look badass, esp Optimus Prime, Megatron, Lockdown, and BumbleBee
Important to note that the Aerialbots were from the present day of the show , newly created and doubting the ideals of the autobots and if fighting was really right thing to do, somewhere they got sent to the past, met Orian Pax and Megatron there and only after witnessing those events they decided that the Autobots were doing the right thing and were loyal to the cause from there
All while causing a time paradox by been the ones responsible for creating Optimus Prime in the first place.
I’ll can’t wait to see this film. Except I’m from the UK and I have to wait until October.
Shiiiiddd the Netflix episodes told me everything I know about transformers. I never will look at the autobots the same again.
The add was too crazy 😂
Transformers: Prime was a great cartoon no kidding .
I didn't know about most of the facts mentioned in this about both Prime and Megatron. But, I enjoyed learning more about them and getting a bit of a refresher on the stuff that I already knew. Also, I'm not completely sure if I will watch Transformers One in theaters, but I plan on seeing it at some point.
What you ain't got to talk about Galvatron basically the same guy just different form and name
*BADA$$SATRON!* a new origin story has unfolded lol
G1, Beast Wars, War for Cybertron have been the best and Bays Shias n Foxs live action...
You forgot his anti matter powers
I believe Jack Darby from Transformers: Prime is in the running for being a Prime too. Even though he's human the Matrix bonded with him too.
One of Optimus powers is being voiced by Peter Cullens
Didn’t know Iacon was ‘Laycon’ lol
Would you want to be an Autobot or a Decepticon
Autobot
Decepticons
I lnow that when it first came out the history between sides were never fleshed out and explained. As time went on the development of past relationships and paradigms attempted to make sense of all of the chaos, but the only thing that was consistent in all variations of the story was their brotherhood. Though even that has 'changed' depending on who or how its told.
Decepticons!
Transform and Rise Up!
Powers and abilities: Optimus Prime is voiced by Peter Cullen. Major power boost!
Who could believe that two friends became bitter enemies? Who all could relate to Optimus Prime and Megatron?
The transformers exodus novel goes into more detail on their origins, as its revealed that Alpha Trion was one of the 13 Original primes and he can glimpse into the future and the past. He petitioned for Orion and Megatron to meet with the high council and at the high council meeting, Megatron and Orion both give their excellent speeches to sway all who listened. Megatron killed the head of the council and declared war upon them once they had deemed Orion the next prime. After that it jumps to several battles of the war for cybertron and we get different perspectives from different characters on both sides. It's actually an excellent read. 😌👍
Since you did history of Marvel's Black Knight, Can you do history of Marvel's Dreadknight?
If you seen the episodes of season 7 of the Flash, can you do history of Impulse, XS, Psych, Fuerza, Steadfast, Chillblaine, Abracadabra, Rainbow Raider, Mirror Master and Top in your next video?
I like the shattered glass origin story
I saw transformers one and I loved it❤
Great movie.
Is that Cobra Commander? @11:30?
Yep... Transformers X Gi Joe did happen in some comics.
"Megatron must be stopped. No matter the cost."
For the record, I love Michael Bay's transformers movies, which made me love transformers to begin with. 👍
Please make a content on Ultra Magnus
How bout bumblebee and Starscream?
Are you going to do history of the Supreme Intelligence, Ronan the Accuser, Dar-Benn and Ael-Dan who all played a major role in The Marvels movie?
Are you going to do history of Jentorra, Kryler(played by Bill Murray), Multiple Man, Cassie Lang as Stature/Stinger and the city of Chronopolis in honour of the Ant-Man and the Wasp Quantumainia movie?
