    Fun fact: the flame design on Optimus were done out of practicality, as red is apparently tricky on camera, so instead Bay used a blue truck and made the flames so Prime's robot mode would still have red on the chest (the issue filming red cars also being why Ironhide was made black instead of red)

      @@MisaelSuaveTeamAccount I’m not educated on it exactly but here’s what I’m thinking based off some photography experience:
      Red emits one of the lowest wavelengths for light meaning you need that cameras need to let more light in to allow for red to look how it does to us. The pricked with this I’m high action scenes like transformers is you have a lot of fast moving shots which require a high shutter speed to work with. The higher the shutter speed, the darker an image gets so photographers/filmmakers compensate by upping the ISO on cameras or lowering the aperature (focal length). The trade off is the higher the ISO you use, the grainier the image looks and the lower the aperture you use, more gets blurred out outside of what’s being focused on.
      Because red is so dark to cameras compared to other colors, filmmakers would need to use higher ISO and lower aperture to get the colors correct meaning the image would have good coloring, but the shots themselves would look pretty bad

Even when it was clear he was far to damaged to even flee battle if he wanted to, he was still incurring human casualties. Kinda wish that’s how all the transformers worked. I liked it when brawl, a background decepticon, took a lot of hits to take down cuz he’s a giant war machine that takes a lot of damage to kill. I hated it when all the background decepticons in the sequels could basically be taken down with a handgun they were so weak.

      Then the helicopter *stops* and not gradually either, everything just grinds to a halt.
      *THEN* the metal starts shifting position, soldiers start shooting, even their .50cal machine guns have no effect.
      Within a minute the entire base is in a state of panic, all attempts to stop the metal collosus are futile, the biggest secrets of the U.S. government are hacked into and stolen (why that info was on a cloud server in Qatar we may never know)
      Not long after chain of command has broken down and only a handful of survivors are left to wander the desert.

      The Travis Knight designs are much more accurate to the original source material, much like many of the MCU character designs. The thing about the Bayverse designs is that they were made during a time in Hollywood where source material accurate designs weren’t prioritized (take the Fox X-Men for example). I’m glad that we’re finally getting accurate designs across the board for most franchises now.

All of these Transformers designs from the Micheal Bay movies are some of my favourite Transformers designs and always had a special place in my heart especially Optimus Prime design from 2007 movie to Dark Of The Moon.
    The other Transformers designs from the Bayformer movies are just me to complete ugly or just downright awful especially the Kitchenbots and The Twins. The Transformers design from Age Of Exinction and The Last Knight movie start to look more humanoid and only 3 or 5 Transformers design that I acually like such as The Last Knight Megatron and Barricade, Drift, Crosshairs, Lockdown, Evasion Mode Optimus Prime, and Hight Octane Bumblebee. The Micheal Bay Transformers design always have a hit or miss for me because there are some I love and looks awesome on screen and there are some that looks interesting or not my taste.

      @@kingslayerx1716 Because you're a new-gen bandwagoner that crawled on to the bandwagon with Bay's mess and thinks he knows Transformers.
      These things have existed and have been important to us since long before your mother pushed you out and you became relevant, fetus. You lot don't get to crawl out and decide how things should be, people that've been with these things since the beginning and respect them do.

    i think you forgot Bumblebee and Optimus Prime earth design and camaro design in the post credit scene of the Bumblebee Movie. I think they both go in genius.

    I’ll never like DOTM Soundwave because they replaced his perfect ROTF Head with the visor/2 pairs of eyes combo which was a great homage to G1 with the ugly mug his DOTM face had.
    Props to the body though, the speakers and tentacles were so good they got ported to other continuities.

    What's kind of both beautiful and frustrating abt like Bayverse designs is all the random metal parts sticking out of transformers. Color hides it a lot but just seeing a bunch of miscellanious gray metal parts sticking around is either hit or miss depending on the time of day
