This is a re-upload from 2017! The first Transformers was the last time most people didn't totally hate the Transformers films. So here's everything right with Transformers.

If I sound a little weird it's because this video is originally from 2017! It was blocked worldwide, so we re-edited and here it is! Also, for those that guessed Knives Out was this week, you were right. "Stuff" came up and the video got a little bigger, so that will be next week!
Please make "Everything Great About Legend of the Guardians, The Owls of Ga'Hoole!" That movie DESERVES the Cinemawins treatment!
Plz do the other ones plz!!
Can you do everything great about "a league of their own"
i absolutely love transformers, its one of my favorite movies of all time
CinemaWins Here’s some ideas: A Beautiful Mind Jacob’s Ladder
The moment in this movie that always gets me, Ironhide calls humanity an ignorant and violent race... and Optimus, his voice full of old pain, regret, and a fundamental honesty, asks "Were _we_ so different?"
Watching it back then as a kid, I never understood the context behind that line.
But i mean neither are wrong
You're such a flake
It’s a very strong and true line to think about as a youngster when this first came out no idea what Ironhide meant but looking back on it now wow
I loved that scene too. Along with the bumblee ending where he speaks, mourning jazz, and of course "left cheek, left cheek, left cheek"
"Starscream wins coolest Deception, at least until Megatron shows up." Starscream: "Yeah, story of my life."
True xD
Which is why he tries to kill Megatron and fails almost every time.
@@harold2hs Precisely
and then he dropped back to third when Soundwave showed up in Bumblebee
I personally think Barricade and Blackout are both cooler
Nostalgia yes or no, how can you not like giant freaking robots beating the crap out of other giant freaking robots? It's badass.
I love the Transformers movies because even though the story is trash, its just dumb fun that I can enjoy
Same, these movies are the "turn of your brain and enjoy what you see" types of movies, and the stories actually do make some semblance of sense if you don't think about it too much...unless you're The Last Knight, you can turn your brain off and it's still boring as fuck, mostly because there's barely anything to enjoy, the movie is like 2/3 senseless talking, and makes so little sense that you can't not pay attention to it. At least the previous 4 had stories that actually made some sort of sense but the 5th movie is just...something, clearly, just not the good kind of "something"
I thought the story was still pretty good
idc if anyone says this is trash i stil love every single transformers movie
That's what they always were meant to be
I couldnt care less about the story. its pretty just the robot design for me. just the amount of detail alone is already incredible
"If you're an adult that enjoys these movies, it doesn't mean you have the mental capacity of a child. It means you have the heart and excitement of a child." Well, you know what Snow White said. "You're never too old to be young."
when snow white said that?
They're not mutually exclusive.
growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional!
I love the series
“What’s the point of being all grown up if you can’t be childish sometimes?” - The Fourth Doctor
This movie played a strong part in my childhood
I think everyone born in the late 90's and early 2000's can agree (myself included)
same i still love them however many years later
Same, thanks to my dad who's a huge 80's Transformers cartoon fan
@@shanaenaejajum7228 I think 13 years now
@@true_Canadian419 yeah i think 13 in july
Watching this movie when it came out in '07, at age 6, got me hooked to both Transformers and Linkin Park. It holds a special place in my heart and never fails to put a giant, dumb grin on my face! Friends give me crap for loving these movies, but I don't care - hell, 6 yr old me doesn't care at all. You put giant robots, explosions, nice cars, a sick soundtrack in front of me and I'm HAPPY
That exactly how I do with movies give me the characters I like or new ones and I won’t complain at all
I'm kinda sad this video didn't give a win for linkin park I grew up with the films as well and I don't care that they've become a joke or that I'm old now, they're fun to watch and the characters are great (at least in the first 3 films). Its a franchise I forget about for a few months but I always come back to it and I can happily sit down watching the films without a care in the world
@@Tom-oz7wkdon't forget hot girls
My son was 5 when this movie released. I pre-screened it opening night, to make sure there was nothing too much for my 5 year old... And took him to see it the very next day. I grew up watching the cartoons and it was great to be able to share the Transformers with him.
@@jedirayden Glad to hear you passing on a love for the franchise! I'm nowhere close to having kids but when I do, as soon as they're old enough, I will do the exact same thing.
9:52 I've always loved that transformation. The brief pause after he finishes transforming, then the thruster kicks in and he zips down the tunnel with the aileron roll
"Michael Bay Is such an interesting director." **he gets smacked across the street by Decepticon a millisecond later**
Wingel's Magische Manga-Mulle I love those self-deprecating director cameos. Same with Casino Royale.
Micheal bay might be shit but 13 hours wasn't that bad
Boss Killa all the transformers movies bar the last knight were good
Boss Killa indeed
I've always had a soft spot for Michael Bay and his style of filmmaking. While his sense of humor and historical accuracy is questionable at best, his mixture of scenery porn and explosive carnage is captivating to say the least. I especially like the cars he uses for his chase scenes.
"Why dont the autobots have any cool jets" This is because the Autobots were actually a civilian line of design from the higher-ups (speaking from G1 here) The Decepticons were the military line of design. Their differences sparked a civil war. In a nutshell.
I never knew there was an in-universe explanation. Thank you.
Which is ironic considering how most jets, helicopters and heavy tracked vehicles are backbone of civilian infrastructure.
@@TheArklyte Its not to say that there arent really any autobot aircraft. Just that they are rare that too weaponised. And the autobots of course do have the aerial bots. So theres the air wing of the autobots for you.
Good ol' Cybertonian Caste system.
And happen to look a lot like human vehicles (later minor alteration)
“Man, Bumblebee’s is like the best wing man ever” Bumblebee: Heck Yeah I am!
"Movie designs sucks because they don't look like their original counterpart" I hate how people say that and not saying that to the past transformers series that changed looks to characters and even transformers prime. And plus Iornhide g1 toy was originally black lol
I love the earlier movie designs all their faces look alien and you can guess what they turn into, and then there's the later designs.. They all dont have vehicle kibble, they all dont look like they should transform into that. And some of them look too human, especially drift and hound.
@@RXQ1jj I agree. TF1 to TF3 were the better Transformers movies. TF4 and TF5 I won't defend much
i like TF1 and 2 i kind of like TF3 cause the only reason why i like it cause of Shockwave and his Driller,TF4 is “cool” only cause i like the Designs but TF5 was a Meh cause of the plot but the Designs are cool
To be honest though,the designs of The Transformers in this movie were actually very awesome,my favorite is Optimus Prime.
i fucking agree they still dont get it that Bay wanted to create a NEW universe and a more realistic designs
No win for Rachet's deadpan liner about Sam's "pheromones suggest he wishes to mate with the female." ? I'm disappointed.
it stinged me hard as fck
Awww... missed opportunity.
Kinda immature imo
I died inside when he said it too
@@username-yc3bd thats the point, its a bay movie
The triple "LEFT CHEEK" is also accurate. Important things are always repeated three times in the military.
I sub consciously do this with video games.
As far as I know its "emergency" not "important"
It's the same thing that Rody does in endgame when he's trying to get The war machine suit to open. He yells "canopy, canopy, canopy"
This is how I informed my friend where my keys were when they helped me move into my new place. They were in fact in my left back pocket.
LEFT CHEEK LEFT CHEEK LEFT CHEEEK
The Skorpinok village attack scene will forever be one of my all time favorite scenes in film, the quick shots between the soldiers and their air support mixed with the quick communication and score gets me every damn time
Yeah plus they did some damage too scorpinok so they where the useless
My brother was really into these, I got into it too, & I have to say that it was terrifying & real to me, as a kid who’d never seen a war film.
i think Michael Bay is unironically kinda great. When it comes to making big summer blockbusters he's like the first guy you'd call.
Well minus the over abundance of 'humor'
If he has a straight man to him
Third honestly what he works well in. This, 6 Underground and Armageddon are decent movies, and the fact he actually cares about using stuntman and practical effects is a testament to his skills. He’s a fantasy director who does action well. As long as he does that and not try to touch reality (Pearl Harbour, Pain and Gain and 13 Hours), he’s component.
@@dylantennant6594 What bay lacks in writing he achieves in action, explosion, and bobies..plus sound effects
At filmmaking? Maybe, but he is NOT a good person
“Yeah i am, you’re not getting a porsche.” Best product placement ever.
why is that line just hysterical?
Ribotto Studios I laughed my ass off first time I saw that scene.
In that scene you can see bumblebee is trailing right behind sam
Unknown Nokia no no DAD!.....you gotta be kidding me”
Except for the fact the he pronounced Porsche wrong
“Before time began... there was the cube.” From that moment on, my childhood had began.

Eva 01 Hi Yui!
とがーちゃん Hello ✌️
Exactly 👍
My childhood was just ending (I was 11 at the time) but I still love *almost* all these movies. Can't wait for Bumblebee 2 and the new reboot movie whenever that comes out. :3
that final speech of Optimis at the end when he tells his people he has found a home and new purpose which is to live side by side with humanity gives me chills every time
Two things: I REALLY want to see you do Bumblebee and another neat detail: each transformer has a unique transformation noise
Damn, I'd actually love to hear CinemaWins' take on the rest of the Bayformers movies. DO IT.
Maybe they could do Dark of the Moon, Bumblebee and the 1986 movie.

To this day that "Megatron" "Prime" still gives me shivers
Oh, but how I cheered when we got: At the end of this day, one shall stand and one shall fall.
Lola Gudgeon agreed
I think we all can agree that after this and james camerons avatar cgi got SO much better.
The cgi in this movie aged pretty well
I can't believe you missed pointing out how Bumblebee literally Drives into the Car Dealership right after Sam & his dad. He wasin't waiting there the whole time like I first thought. he literally just drives right across the frame as Sam's Dad turns into the Dealership.
“No sacrifice, no victory” *Stands around doing nothing*

Great leadership would be to be working just as hard as the men. Doing the same thing. You’d be surprised how much easier it is to motivate someone if you help them do it instead of telling them

That's William Morgan Sheppard verbally cracking the whip! You will respect the man who brought the world Blank Reg!

The score/soundtrack for this movie is definitely one of my all time favorites. Arrival to Earth is crazy nostalgic for me, it's so well made
I don't know what it's called (probably is Arrival to Earth) but the main orchestral line is gorgeous
You gotta admire how many characters there are in this movie alone, and how you can remember most of them pretty well. Some of them have very little screen time and still they're so memorable! So charismatic! Looking at it like that, it adds to the realism and makes you feel you're watching a perfectly compressed series into a movie
Win count is actually 120. Linkin Park's "What I've Done" is the win.
Oh hell yeah. Can't go wrong with Linkin Park.
Linkin Park should always be a win.
Arrival to Earth and Linkin Park are pretty sure both earn hundred wins
Yes
Say what you will about the sequels but I'll defend this movie to my dying breath. Peter Cullen as Prime? STUNNING. The CGI mixed with practical effects is STUNNING, the score STUNNING and the SOUND DESIGN THE GOD DAMN SOUND DESIGN MUAH. I'll say it-Transformers really revitalized the action genre. For those that might have forgotten Hollywood was just DEAD in the mid 2000s thanks to the Recession (as well as other huge events) back in the day-Transformers came along and changed EVERYTHING and in the following year we had not only Iron Man but Dark Knight too? Boom boom boom we are not pirates and Hollywood would never be the same again. Also I ate the WHOLE plate. The WHOLE plate is just iconic lol.
I like the idea and the sentiment a lot but if Movie A comes out a year after Movie B, then I'm pretty sure it's safe to assume Movie A was beginning production around the same time Movie B was wrapping production. Not to mention all the CGI, compositing, rendering, editing, reshoots. Again, I like the sentiment but I don't think Transformers revitalized the action genre. At the very least it was at the forefront of the Action Renaissance.
@@rayeittastay2458 I can accept that. I feel like Transformers was like the Little Mermaid of action movies-the start of something BIG and Iron Man and Dark Knight just kind of exploded onto the scene changing everything. And suddenly action was cool again. Fantasy had its moment after 9/11 and was still around thanks to Harry Potter but other than that it mostly died off. And then there was just nothing. Transformers coming around really helped move things along in the right direction for action-it was fun, big BOMBASTIC MR FANTASTIC it was fun, entertaining turn your brain off, make you think about life....and then in 2009 and 2010 animation even got into action a bit and took off it was so good. And my god 2014 was just....ohhhh what a time to be alive. But yes I don't think that would've happened without Transformers.
@@TheRibottoStudios I'm just waiting for the time when Video Game Movies are actually good and not like... *Breaths in* Super Mario Bros. Mortal Kombat Street Fighter Lara Croft Warcraft Doom Assassin's Creed Tomb Raider Need For Speed Hitman Far Cry or Rampage.

@@rayeittastay2458 I mean we have Detective Pikachu and Sonic the Hedgehog? baby steps. baby steps.
@@TheRibottoStudios at this point it's like taking baby steps in quick sand.
I thought it was such a dick move that Megatron calls Optimus “Prime.” Prime is a title! Not his name! It’s like if two sergeants were fighting and one of them was calling the other sergeant the whole time.
I mean it would still make sense
@@triplemoyagames4195 Yeah especially if you read the comic series based off the bayformers movies. In short Megatron was basically the top general of cybertrons army, but the status of prime was given to Optimus, even though Optimus felt he didn't deserve the title, so hearing Megatron refer Optimus as 'prime' is kind of like a subtle insult. Note: I'm not good with my wording but hopefully I made sense

The one thing i mainly love about the transformers movies was the sounds it was and still is satisfying to hear the autobots and decepticons transforming, the guns, the explosions and the sound effects and ofc the visual effects are top notch.
It's all about the destructive happy tingles :D
At least bay films didn't spend over 100 million dollars of animation for nothing
Vzrq Yes yes yes YEESS!! 😁😁😁
There's a neat detail in the Scorponok attack scene. When he jumps out of the ground near the village, note what he does once he hits the ground. He does do rather painfully, as if he was expecting to tunnel back in, only to land on rock. He then presses a claw against the ground, realizes he can't burrow here, and decides to pull out the guns.
I loooved it when sam encountered his decepticon and he gets asked "ARE YOU LADIESMAN278? WHERE ARE THE GLASSES?" it's hilarious 😂
I wanna know how many takes it took, cause I know barricade's actor did NOT do that without laughing on his first
I think the only line I remember from the 4 Bay movies I’ve seen is “ARE YOU USERNAME LADIESMAN217?!”
Lmao, same here
Theres 5 movies... 😬
@@joltster109 Again, of the 4 movies I'VE SEEN. I'm aware of the 5th one, I just don't care enough to watch it.
@@eqWillibrium Ahhh alright 🤣 I misread that. :p
@@joltster109 Eh, it happens so often, i'm used to it. I forgive you
The “Specificity” win for the guy yelling LEFT CHEEK is also based somewhat in realism. In the military, things are said in sets of threes when it’s urgent or an emergency to make sure the message is understood.
That is very true, this also happens in endgame after thanos blows up the avengers base after the snap. Rhodey is under ground with hulk and rocket and he says canopy 3 times in a panic to open the broken suit and we all know he's a colonel in the airforce
I remember feeling like Mykeala should be the main character. She's the one who actually fulfills the "no sacrifice no victory" thing. She even calls out Sam for never having to do that and he doesn't through the end of the film.
How does she fulfill that?
Noooooo! You can't just stab me In my first 30 seconds of screen time! Optimus: haha flame sword go stab stab
They really made optimus feel like a warrior in this and something to be feared. Which kinda adds more credit to megatron being his equal and counterpart.
Yep that's why he's the leader
People always say that the bayverse optimus is too brutal, or ruthless, but in the Bumblebee movie, in the games, and especially in the comics, he's the same essentially. He's a brave, inspiring leader but in a fight he becomes "Optimus 'Fuck 'round find out' Prime"
@@space_racc I kinda liked Optimus in bumblebee movie he got that og design and have personality like in bayverse film
That until the later movies were he becomes fodder
SpaceRaccoon 1337 I agree. People seem to forget that the bay verse is meant to show if these creatures existed in the real world. They’re fighting a real war. They can’t expect optimus to go “Ok ur bad, but I’ll let you go” to every decepticon he fights. Mostly how the bay verse shows that the war has been going on for eons now.
Here is somthing ive never told enyone when i was small my dad got me a lazer to point at the sky cause i thoght it whould summon robots when my dad passet i never lost the lazer so this movie holds a spot in my hart
Hope you keep it with you, still lighting the stars as a bridge towards where his heart now resides.
@/X/ENor at least not at planes.
Same…it was the last movie my father and I really watched together.
Holy shit that was beautiful
I had a stroke reading this
You don’t even need to turn off your brain for this movie, the plot actually makes sense and the characters are fun! Definitely the best of the Transformers films and still an incredible movie 15 years later! 😁
I grew up with Transformers, still love it all to this day, i went insane when i saw that the live action movie was coming. It's... not the greatest, BUT, it did awaken the fandom again and got so many new people to like Transformers. The soundtrack to this movie is Amazing, voice actors are *chefs kiss- and it was just so fun to see everybot come to life. My favourite in the whole Transformers universe though is Transformers: Prime, Transformers Animated and the More than meets the eye comics. And fun fact, i was born on the same day that the first transformers episode aired in the united states. September 17th 1984, i like to think that me loving Transformers was meant to be. :P
I'm gonna be honest: this movie was the first Transformers thing I ever saw, and I'll always love it for that.
SAME :D
Same here

Same over here
Same here :)
This movie was absolutely incredible when I first saw it. I ended up seeing it 3-4 times at the cinema it was that good. For all the reasons CinemaWins pointed out. I think I was 12 at the time and this film blew my mind, the special effects were like nothing I'd ever seen. Seemingly realistic futuristic robots battling it out across our planet. I was truly awestruck
Seriously, the visuals and sound design are both easily the best aspects of this film.
While I loved the entire trilogy (revenge of the fallen being my favorite), Extinction was good but could’ve been better, and Last Knight wasn’t trash, but wasn’t that good either. Hopefully in the future we’ll have a perfect transformers series
@@split2961 i agree, people hate on tlk and aof but i personally liked them the story was a bit too far out imo but i cant wait for the next one.
I actually agree. To date, I really recognize the flaws the movie has and I kind of saw them the first times I saw it, and I can understand why people hate the franchise, but I will admit it's a kind of blameful pleaser xd.
Little kid me loved every single second of the movie, man. I think I was 5 when I first watched this? Now that I'm older and more jaded, the film's plot is mediocre at the best of times, the dialog can be stilted, some of the jokes don't land or haven't aged very well, and it leans a bit hard on Megan Fox's sex appeal sometimes, especially in future films. But I'll be damned if it isn't a spectacle from start to finish. The models and animation are fantastic, everything looks so hyper-real. Everything in the movie moves like it has real weight associated to it. The sound design, as pointed out in the video, is also incredible. Do I really care about the characters? Not really. In retrospect, the only reason why prime stood out to me so much (check the username) is because he had a badass sword and an awesome voice. But again, the visual feats the movie pulls off are absolutely incredible.
I loved seeing these movies as they came out while I was younger, and I think I enjoy them more now than I did when I was younger. The emotion, the action, it's this crazy movie that gets crazier the more that they continue (although I wasn't the biggest fan of Age of Extinction and haven't seen The Last Knight because of that, but still, the first three are amazing). Revenge of the Fallen moves from what was small battles in the first that climaxes to city street firefights, to big battles ending with the huge fight in Egypt that feels like a warzone! Even the world feels lived in as humans become more and more adept at taking out Decepticons. Dark of the Moon many of the Decepticons are killed by human special ops squads and it gives off this immense feeling of growth from "super heated weapons burn through the metal let's use that for everything", to "Snipers take out the eyes from a distance while a ground team destroys their legs and we execute them before they have the chance to react". They know that they're bigger, stronger, and more advanced, and like humans they adapt, use their heads, and beat the big baddies, and the fact that it took THREE MOVIES to get to that point feels just right. Again this universe feels lived in and I really do enjoy them. I hope that he makes a "Everything GREAT about Transformers Revenge of The Fallen" I'd love to hear his input on how that movie did with Sam's insanity that he shared with his great grandfather (or however many greats it was), the pacing of it, the backstory of The Fallen and The Primes, and so much more that I know he'd have a lot to say about.
Please please please do the four other sequels and Bumblebee!!! I need some more Transformers CinemaWins videos! XD
"Arrival to earth" is one of the most beautiful scores i ever heard
Steve Jablonsky really nailed the tone of the movie. Wonder and action meshed into an epic whole.
true fact: i was at high school when this movie came out and it’s still to this day my favorite movie from the impact it had in my life, i was so obsessed that i would watch it everyday after school, i was amazing on how real it looked and it was what encouraged me to become a 3D artist which lead to a successful career as graphic designer and 3D artist, say what you want about michael bay, and yes, not all of the transformers where great, but to the eyes of a kid that grew up with transformers, this movie is amazing
Yeah I know. I grew up with them too, but I wasn’t a teenager when it came out
Congrats dude! Thats awesome and inspiring. 👏👏👏👏👏
joltster109 thank you a lot :)
It’s what inspired me to do want to be a director
I know the feeling. I was 13 when I first saw Revenge of The Fallen (along with the 2007 movie) and it inspired my interest in drawing cars.
My favorite part of this movie that I still geek out to a little is at the end. Optimus' speech with Linkin Park in the background still gets me hyped
8:00 I have never noticed the father/son fist bump they do there. That's absolutely class! 😂😂😂
One thing that this movie does very well while the transformers are on screen the camera is very grounded so they actually feel like big robots makes them feel more real because of it
One of the things I really liked about this film is the way when they walk the sound is vibrating through the ground. Like you can not only see the massive size of the transformers but you can also hear and also feel their weight. Like the early iron man suits. It felt real
Yes, that was awesome! There was one major thing I HATED about the Transformers movies though. 3 words "LACK OF CONTINUITY" the films in term of mind numbing, edge of your seat action were certainly amazing and extremely entertaining. However there is only so much missing lore I can take before I'm ready to pull my gun. Like for instance, what happened to Sam after "Dark side of the moon"? Where did Leo go after Revenge of the Fallen? Why is there NO mention of what happened of ANY of these characters? I mean, Sam.. the teenage boy who saved the world 3 fucking times alongside Optimus and the Autobots and what.. not even a SINGLE reference to him or what he did.. I'm sorry for going off on a rant about this but still..
Honestly think you should've added another point for Linkin Park leading the end credits
I finally got around to watching this movie and the CGI and sound design completely blew me away. Like they did a phenomenal job and this came out in 2007. And of course the score is amazing as well.
Anyone else get choked up when "What I've Done" started playing? Just me?
Goosebumpbs
Definitely.
For various reasons, yes. #RIPChester
Always. Robot boy is also one that chokes me up. I had a video idea for robot boy and it would be cool if i could share it
I'm 14 and grew up (am growing up) with these movies and this first one was actually decent and that song, oH thE mEmoRiEs
I think people rip a lot on Transformers because of how some of the bots were designed. The first three films were okay, decent action, a cohesive story, and you feel like it is a whole process of "they won the battle but not the war". Age of Extinction and Last Night however are pretty terrible. The only good thing about age of extinction was we finally got to see the Dinobots in live action. Last Knight was even worse due it trying to suddenly add in lore to the films and also trying to put the idea in that Bumblebee was around during world war 2
Honestly I consider AOE and TLK non-canon.
I just realized Shia was only 19 when he got his role in this movie, oh my god!
My friends and I always have this game where whenever we watch the Bayformers series we drink a shot every time an american flag is in the scene but whoever spots it first gets a free pass and doesn't have to take a shot. We're almost always shitface drunk halfway through the 2nd movie.
Hah, Blackout drunk
lol
@@eldritchexploited5462 yeah! *BLACKOUT* drunk!
Hehehe nice lol
getting grindor drunk will be a whole different story
Michael Bay isn't perfect, but he is exceptional at what he does. Heavily flawed in how he tells his stories, but an absolute beast in the visual effects department. Another win for the movie is having actual US soldiers as extras so they could read off military procedures, maneuvers and chatter authentically.
Dan of Steel I feel like most people wouldn’t have a problem with Bay if he was relegated to ONLY visual and sound effects. Presentation is on point, it’s his storytelling he doesn’t give a shit about. Imagine if Bumblebee has its original story but also had the visual flare that could only be produced by Michael Bay. Best of both worlds.
Jasper Javillo That’s so true, I know it would never happen, but imagine if Bay was paired with Stanley Kubrick for example? You have Kubrick who is a god at creating stories, and Bay, who is an effects mastermind, just fantasy though, unfortunately.
I had no idea those were actual soldiers in the movie! So much I didn't know
Steve Jablonsky's scores are amazing. He got me listening to classical music and music from shows and animes.
Where's 'Bumblebee'? I'm _positive_ you'd love that one!
When your waiting for people to like Transformers again because you are actually a fan.
*you're
me
Me too. And Bumblebee honestly delivered
Watching Transformers for the first time in 2007 for me was like watching "Star Wars" for the first time in 1977
Great video. Also, here is an additional win: There is a scene in the final battle where Megan Fox's character realises that Sam may not survive the battle, so she stops the car...and breaks down. Transformers is a franchise where one of its core themes is the devastating effects of war and in this scene we saw an example of just that. People go into battle and those who care about them live in agony if they'll make it out alive. Transformers 2007 is a movie that is mostly just loud dump fun, but this scene is quite, subtle and powerful and it proves that Micheal Bay, despite the flaws of his writing and directing, actually has capabilities and potential as a director and writer.
10:08, another about that one, it was also done as a practical effect, and not phoned in. They got in a stunt driver and everything. They even modified the Peterbilt 379 to have more weight on the drive axles, in order to lower its center of gravity, to get the intended results. So, Michael Bay, another huge win.
1:01 "It gives you that weird feeling below your ribcage." I never thought I'd hear it put into words. SPOT ON SAME
I think it's fine to like this Transformers movie, because it still holds up as a good stand-alone movie. It's just so memorable, from the characters, the action beats, and the music and soundtrack. Its sequels, though, are a whole other story-they've become just memes of this movie. And that's where the perceived hate comes from, I think-the sequels.
I feel like I'm more biased towards liking these Transformers films, they were the first ones I ever saw and I was quite young when I saw them, I can accept the sequels are kinda terrible but this one will always have a soft spot for this film in particular
If you look around you’ll see that most people see the first one as an enjoyable film, and i agree! The first movie is great. Not a masterpiece, but very enjoyable with lots of great and epic action. But the sequels were just ridiculous.
I mean, theres now like 6 other movies aside from the original, so it's not that suprising
It's fine to like any movie
In my opinion TF1-TF3 are the best transformers movies.
Fun fact when Bumblebee the movie came out they used the beetle as bumblebees car transformation and you can see it at 2:44
0:44 yoooooo did he just predict the future like I'm watching now at 2022
It’s about time. The transformers franchise was always a pleasure for me.
Dominic Parker so? If it brings joy to someone it shouldn't be thrown in the trash. I hate the SW sequel trilogy and yet I love that they sparked such love in so many people for the franchise, myself included given it was my first star wars film. Even if they're not very good movies. I never got into transformers but transformers 1 and 2 are still the kinds of movies I come back to for the awesome mix of corny, cheesy and explosions : D
Guilty pleasure ;)
@Sam Zheng just so you know, this video has been around for a while but it was taken down for some reason. This is a repost
Exactly, I love these movies so much..people make fun of them...the first is the best..but I love every single one
How could we forget to skip the voice of Prime? Peter Cullen’s preforming that captivating voice always kept the attention no matter which of the five or six movies that came out. And Bay respects that man’s voice enough to downplay the music and noise in the background to pull the audience away from the fighting and currents moments and ground you in the now.
Yes!
He should’ve had Frank Welker do Megatron’s voice.
@Dominic Parker oh no! An actor having to audition for a roll in a major blockbuster movie! Bay, you monster!! And so what if he originally wanted Clooney? People make mistakes. The important thing is he came around and made the right choice.
I originally thought Tyrese was saying “LEFT JINK LEFT JINK LEFT JINK” but then I rewatched the movie with subtitles and he actually said “LEFT CHEEK LEFT CHEEK LEFT CHEEK”
I love how anyone can find a bit of good in these movies, really important to me because THIS is MY Transformers (well this plus prime) so it's nice to see them not get slammed on KZhead for once.
This was one of my favourite movies growing up. I have a wild imagination, and growing up in Australia there's a lot of travelling cause it's a big country so I used to always imagine cars on the highway transforming and battling it out to pass time during long trips
I gotta agree, I enjoyed this movie just like the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and maybe the 5th? But regardless, I thought it was always epic and awesome with the fights scene and music and the quotes. I would usually sometime RP scene and do stupid or cringe stuff. But thats what makes me a kid. Looking back it it, I don't really care if some of the plots were bad. I only enjoyed the action pack and cinematography.
As someone who has been engrossed by this franchise since I was a little kid in the early 2000s, I cannot share how HUGE this movie was to 11 year old me in the Theatres! I still watch it every year before TFcon!! Hopefully you will get to tackle Bumblebee sometime, love that one too! Also: LEFT CHEEK. LEFT CHEEK! LEFT CHEEK!!
Dude frick yeah TF kids unite! I always forget how quotable this movie is but "I ate the whole plate. I ate the _whole_ plate." "That's his bling!/Dont walk on the grass!" "No sacrifice! No victory!" Basically the whole scene with Sam's parents in his room, it's all incredible
I love all of the movies, even though they’re bad. I love Transformers so so much: all continuities, shows, and even the comics. This franchise has been a part of me, a part of my personality childhood when I watched the first Bayverse movie in 2007.
And to answer your question about Autobots with aerial vehicle modes, there are a few. In the G1 cartoon, there were Cosmos (UFO), Powerglide (Warthog attack jet), Jetfire (Blackbird).
‘If I had a rock ‘ line is the best line in the film
"To punish an enslave" it got stuck forever in my head. I think I might be a hidden decepticon
Well then keep calm and hail megatron. (It was on barricades tlk car design)
Transform and rise up, my sisters and brothers.
"SHUT UP, GRAN'MA! DrInK yO pRuNe JuIcE!"
lmao no win for that line?
@@jonaszprzybycien6545 lol you're right it should've been a win
the transforming scenes in these are true asmr
You forgot to win Linking park- what I've done ending song man
yes exactly id definitely count that as a win, great song choice, so for me its 120 wins
9:36 I like to think Megatron *HATED* when those humans called him NBE-1 all those years and he just had to say his name out loud to show, “Yeah, I’m here, now to make you paste”
For my understanding, I believe the real reason Megatron hates humanity is because they're a primitive and self destructive race that aren't worth saving. He views their eradication as nothing more than “pest control.”
Which would also explain how Megatron speaks English, something CinimaSins didn't get.
5:04 I never noticed my boy Rick Gomez was the Sheriff, makes the scene even better.
What I've done by Linkin Park (RIP Chester Bennington) Makes the ending seen so much better especially when Optimus Prime is giving his speech.
It's about time! ^^ The Transformers franchise was always a guilty pleasure for me.
It doesn't have to be. The IDW comics are just great, I recommend "the lost light" series.
I. Don't. Care. I love these movies. Did when I was a kid and I still do now.
Same
Yess same here
Same.
Same dude
These movies are the best. Loved 1-4, but 5 was way too horrible for me to like
You forgot one point, Linkin Park´s song at the end of the film
I remember this movie coming out just after my sixth birthday this movie will always hold a special place in my heart, The scene where all the transformers are in Sam's backyard I remember my dad leaning over and telling me the names of each one I just remember looking at him like "how do you know these things?"And when the dad in the movie said they blew a transformer I looked at my dad like "how does HE know about these, do you know him?" 🤯🤯🤯
"The Last Knight looks fun." Oh, my sweet summer child...
I’m still baby, what do you mean by this? 0-o
Oh.
@@datalysjr3339 Well... remember how he mentioned that the sequels didn't get any better than this one? Yeah, Last Knight was not considered a good movie by a lot of people.
@@bruuze1258 I considered it amazing. Obviously it's not a Hollywood masterpiece, but I loved Anthony Hopkins in that movie, the new characters were fun, Josh Duhamel came back, Steve Jablonsky composed a banger soundtrack, and the visuals were awesome imo. The scenery in England, and the way they did Cybertron, was really great. The behind the scenes also made me appreciate the movie more than I originally did. I'm honestly sad there won't be a 6th part, I was really interested in more after the teasing of a movie with Unicron.
@@AntiOptimusPartei That's fair. I wasn't saying it was a horrible movie, just that the negatives associated with Bay seemed more prevalent in this one. All the things you listed were actually quite good though
It's really sad how the series became a joke when the first movie was so damn badass
the first 3 movies were great and people loved them but the meta of people hating bay started after AOE
@@orhandalegend G1 dumbasses are the ones who do the hating
@@orhandalegend Well I do love the first few movies I will admit that Mark Wahlberg is way better of an actor (and better person in general) than Shia.
I can't believe this movie is from 10 years ago, the CGI is just... Amazing, when watching it for the first time I thought it was all real and I still get that feeling now
9:18 Thankyou for giving starscream the glory I think he deserves. Everyone says he was eh, but as a kid, he was the COOLEST I wanted him to do more.
No talk about how “what I’ve done” is a win? Fine to quote megaton, you’ve failed me again! (Kappa) Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to go cry in a corner while listening to Linkin Park songs! And I’m going to start with what I’ve done! 😤
I dont even lnow what you're talking about
@@nikolajspasovski9443 He's talking about the song "What I've Done" by Linkin Park, which is both a popular song in its own right, but also a key part of the Transformers soundtrack.
Amy Wong did you just assume my gender?
@@nikolajspasovski9443 So question, do you know the song What I've Done by Linkin Park
Challenge: Say good things about "Bayfromers" CinemaWins: CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
It was legend wait for it... Dary
How is it a challenge ? Steve Jablonsky is enough for that "cHaLleNGe"
Oh, can you do a Everything Great about Bumblebee? It gave me so much feels!
8:00 The face the dad makes the damn Fist Bump is the best thing they could have possibly done with this scene and im so glad they did.
I never watched the OG cartoons, way before my time, but I still remember watching this entire trilogy in theaters. I'm about to be 20 and I still love the hell out of Transformers lol
Same! I had seen a few cartoons but was never a huge fan. But I love the movies....well all except Age of Extinction. I think that one is alright still but it's my least favorite.
