Battle for Cybertron. Optimus Prime sends Bumblebee to Earth. Bumblebee Opening Scene

Can we just get 2 and half hours of nothing but this ?!?! An entire movie of the rise and fall of Cybertron!

Can we appreciate how they used their actual old designs and made them look so badass??? Like I feel like my kid self would be blown away

This is literally all i want for a modern transformers film. Maybe one day

"Let none escape" Starscream proceeds to let every single one escape

6 films and this was the best 3 minutes by quite a long way. This is what we want as fans. A TRANSFORMERS film. Not a terrible human love story with some robots.

Optimus looks like an actual living, existing person here.

0:58 I love the urgency in Prime's voice. Peter Cullen did a bloody amazing job.

This was probably the best scene in probably the whole transformers franchise

Surprising how optimus didn't tear any faces of decepticons he killed

A G1 live action movie with Cybertron and Earth scenes like this would be f’n amazing.

Optimus sounding genuinely alarmed when he sees that Soundwave, Starscream, and Shockwave are spearheading the Decepticon attack is so refreshing. He's a leader first and a warrior second, and not for lack of prowess in combat. Three of Megatron's inner circle represents not only a force that can overwhelm him, personally, but also a surge in enemy leadership that will surely overwhelm and slaughter the Autobots.

I love how Bee is actually an important part of the team so much that Optimus is actually asking for him even though he doesn't have a proper name yet. And his Cybertronian mode looks so cool. Reminds me of the Cybertron games if they mixed that mode with his new muscle car alt modes. It was good to hear him talk too... for the while that he did. The voice really fit him. Also I screamed when Soundwave showed up with his iconic voice. While I really like most of the Bayverse designs, they did Soundwave dirty.

the things you can achieve when you stay consistent and true to the source material and design. theres a reason why it was appealing and worked in the first place

God, that 2 second scene of Starscream and his Seekers shooting up while transforming and then raining death from above is EVERYTHING to me, as is this scene. Love the accurate Soundwave and Shockwave, but Starscream will forever be my favourite. "PATHETIC FOOLS! THERE'S NO ESCAPE!"

Cybertron looked different in every movie. But I think this is the best version because it looks most like the Cybertron that I remember from the cartoons in the 80s.

I liked Optimus' look in the first films and the fights scenes... but this scene they should have made a movie about, this was the source material and this is what everybody wanted - not a teenager having relationships while also finding work... No one wanted that.

The fact that Soundwave, Shockwave, and Starscream were all introduced in the first reboot within a single minute is just awesome. I mean cmon the other live action ones had Shockwave die within 30 mins of seeing him, Soundwave was basically useless, and Stsrscream looked like a Doritos chip

peter cullen's talent as optimus prime will never be matched

If I had a time machine, the first thing that I would do is show 80’s kids this masterpiece.

I like how I can actually see the dread in Optimus’ face when Soundwave appeared. One thing the Bayverse lacked (Among a lot of other things) was facial expressions for the transformers. It was really hard to sympathize with them when they all had the same stone cold faces when expressing anger or sadness. They got better after AOE, but that’s only because they made their faces more human like. Which then makes no sense when they’re Cybertronian. Not humans. This movie did good to allow Optimus’ optics be his way of expression. Since half his face is a literally metal plate.
