After three negative videos about Revenge of the Fallen and Age of Extinction and The Last Knight, it's time we learn some positive lessons from Michael Bay -- which must exist because his movies make billions of dollars and are respected by the like of Christopher Nolan and James Cameron. And the best way to do that is 2011's Transformers: Dark of the Moon, which is the highest grossing film in the franchise and thus a movie loved by the general audience. So, in today's Film Perfection let's look at Transformers 3 starring Shia Labeouf to see how Michael Bay builds blockbusters that general audiences love and are willing to buy a ticket for.

The first upload got taken down by Paramount because I guess they don't like Michael Bay now that he left to make movies for other more successful studios. The same thing might happen to this reupload once the claim people go back to work so I hope you guys enjoy it while it lasts. Thanks!

I was wondering where the video went after I remembered the notification a couple days later.
Mitchells vs The Machines: How to Succeed at The Emoji Movie
Do a anatomy of failure or film perfection of 6 underground
Honestly, if Michael Bay ended Transformers with this film, he would have had a great trilogy. Dark of the Moon would have been an excellent finale.
If the ending wasn't rushed, it would've been a perfect finale for the trilogy.
I wouldn’t necessarily say Bay I’d say Paramount, Hasbro and Bay mostly the first one. Bay was done with Transformers and tried getting out of it after DOTM but was forced back into because no one wanted to direct another transformers movie, and sure Bay continued and they got worse, we must admit Aoe and TLK had some nice designs even if we couldn’t tell who they were at first
but fricking paramount just had to push their luck, didn't they
i dunno i actually liked AOE more than DOTM
What do you mean would have been? It is an excellent finale to the trilogy.
No, there were no more movies after it. It was definitely the last movie they made.
Ngl, the shot of Optimus skating across the pavement, slicing through Decepticons and flipping cars as the camera tracks with him is still one of my favorite action shots of the past decade.
+ that ost playing in the BG Optimus is on a killing spree
Bruh i creamed
Nothing beats ROTF FOREST fight of optimus and 3 cons meg , scream and grindor
@@goy0551 Exactly best fight in the franchise
I think the music is underrated too, nobody seems to talk about the composer of the Transformers movies like they do Hans Zimmer, but he's up there with him.
@@John-X Steve Joblonsky did an amazing job with these scores
The most epic part of the movie by far for me was:
"Besides, who would you be without me Prime?"
"Time to find out."
I love Optimus a lot but it was in his character that he's super optimistic. I think Megatron abused that in G1, I think it also happened in TF:Prime but I don't remember TF:Prime airing before TF3 but my point is, Optimus Prime is a goody two shoes.
That's what made us Optimus fans love him because he's such a noble dude! He still has hope for Megatron turning into a good guy even after all those years they had fighting each other and their comrades dying in battle.
Goosebumps
*activates mask*
@@aeoncalcos7830 yea but the thing is "still has hope for Megatron turning into a good guy even after all those years they had fighting each other and their comrades dying in battle." that's just being dumb,naive and even selfish that he's letting megatron live because of the whole "he can change" mentality kudos for bayverse optimus for actually finishing things
God loves you
Bay also does a tremendous job showing how badass the military are. The scene where the snipers take out the decepticons' eyes while the other soliders rig bombs onto decepticons' feet is really fantastic.
Unlike other movies where the military are absolute garbage
I'm pretty sure the US government paid him for that reason like the movie got funding from the defence department
@@sdprz7893 source.
Yeah
This.
The military is actually competent and reminds the audience that this is the human's war too.
ironhide's death got me crying in the club
He got screwed over by another autobot and rachet got screwed over by humans
He was my fav Autobot, I legit die inside every time I watch that scene :(
Ironhide who? Like, if he ever did anything in these movies I would get it, but like Ratchet he just was a cypher.
@@SwiftNimblefoot he was always my favorite apart from hot rod in G1
Legit my family and I cried because he was one of the original 5 Autobots who landed on Earth.
One thing that came from this movie but no one ever talks about is the music. It’s incredible. The score obviously, but even the soundtrack itself- all of the songs are amazing.
And The original songs made for the movie are top: Linkin Park’s Iridiscent and Paramore’s Monster
If Filmento watches these movies on a big screen with surround sound/speakers, I can’t believe how he isn’t even mentioning the score/sound design. If he just watches it on his cellphone or lap-top then obviously it doesn’t do the movie justice
Shockwave's theme is incredible
Totally agree. Steve Jablonsky is such and underappreciated composer.
the best of the sound track is sentinel primes theme and Its Our Fight
I love Dark of the Moon, it's not even a guilty pleasure for me, it's in my list of favorite action movies just for the epic spectacle alone
honestly bay haters and hardcore movie critics ruined the movie like its suppose to be an epic summer movie not some movie with a main plot it was a fun movie for me
@@ImNapoleonLive yeah. The plot is basically the same as G1; Big good robots fighting bad big robots for sacred artifacts hidden on Earth. Did they really expect some Shakespeare level of writing on this type of movie?
Surprisingly, hardcore critics put this movie on the better side of the transformers movies. Sounds crazy but i was shocked to see.
@@ImNapoleonLive yeah, the fist bayformer is fun, I personally hated ROTF but I loved the third movie more than the first. And then we also had better military sequences than the previous movies. So yeah good movie and bumble bee was also really fun and wholesome in its own way so regardless this franchise has three movies which I really love despite the other movies which I really can’t stand and don’t like.
@@danielsgarden9283 rotf nearly didnt have a script due to strikes, and was all around rushed. it and the last knight are seen as the worst bayformers movies
I’ve never cared what anyone said over the years, but Michael Bay’s first Transformers trilogy was something special. Say what you will about ROTF as a whole or Rosie Huntington-Whiteley from DOTM, but they will always be superior to what came after. Wahlberg’s Transformers movies definitely felt phoned in by Bay and the producers.
Agreed
The first trilogy was awesome, but bumblebee truly is the way forward. Great transformers film
@@rowdyrathore9911 Absolutely. I was so ready to dislike it after the chaos of 4 and 5, but I was so pleasantly surprised.
@@rowdyrathore9911 simple but sweet.
Bumblebee is a superior movie, but i like dark of the moon much more, its not even nostalgia i just find more cool to watch
UA-cam: Hey, I've seen this one!

I saw it on a... rerun.
Do you know why?

@@AxxLAfriku Hey, take this!

Has anything changed?
Same
Got to admit I loved Megatrons look in this with the cloack all damaged with chains.i was just surprised he saved prime just to get an axe to the face
He didn’t save prime he took back his pride after talking with Carley she made him realize he was just being used
I hear the book was better. In there, Optimus and Megatron had a mutual encounter and called a ceasefire on both sides. Then Optimus used Sentinel's Cosmic Rust Cannon on Sentinel to suffer the same demise he brought onto Ironhide. Much more poetic and satisfying imo
@@andremorrison7626 definitely better than Optimus killing a guy who just called a truce, like Optimus whole goal in everything transformers is to get megatron to be on his side. Megatron calling a truce should be this amazing emotional moment, but nope it’s just for Optimus to murder him in 5 seconds. Even as a kid I thought “wow that happened way too quick” like they forgot megatron was in the movie so they just killed him off super quick to get to the happy ending. Anyways, super uncharacteristic of prime.
@@sadchild9478 actually, that was going to be the original ending for T3, they wanted to megatron and optimus to truce, but the story got leaked and they changed it. and its not hard to understand why optimus killed megatron at that moment, optimus has lost his comrade, and is partially responsible for the destructive of Chicago and death of millions. or at least thats how he feels as a character. I think its understandable for optimus killing megatron who tried taking earth 2 times, and simple words won't just cut it anymore and sentinel who optimus saw as a leader went against the code of a prime.
“I JUST SAVED YOUR LIFE WHAT THE FUCK PRIME”
TF3 was actually a really good movie and people nowadays don’t recognize it enough

Sentinel is basically the Fallen done right. The whole thing in the second movie, was that they crafted a machine that extracts the energy from the sun, but they all agreed to not use the machine on any solar systems with life, until the Fallen broke that promise and tried to use it on Earth.
Really both Villains are asking the same “us or them” question, but with Sentinel, it feels more personal, especially for Optimus and it feels more desperate for sentinel.
I feel like this is actually kinda ruined by him killing Ironhide. It’s a great twist, but when you go as far as to kill off one of the most likeable Autobots, someone we’ve known since 2007, it’s very hard for the audience to see the nuance in Sentinel’s character. Because of this most people just see him as “you killed Ironhide” instead probably the best villain in the transformers movies.
Yeah, but if he didn't kill ironhide when he made his turncoat announcement, ironhide would surely tear him a new one rather than sit and listen for an explanation. That's why I believed he killed ironhide. Ironhide was the biggest obstacle between him and the pillars since Prime was a few minutes behind.
@@DaniMol And at least Ironhide had one more bad ass moment before getting assassinated. He stopped that pretty scary chase cold by crashing into those SUV monsters head on like a super hero! (I don't know those decepticons' names, lol, but I think Ironhide was the only autobot who could take on their savagery besides Prime of course. Sideswipe helped with the Mexican Standoff, but Ironhide had to kill both of them since little Sideswipe got kicked down.)
Spot on bud 👍🏼
He was also suppose to have killed the twins. I think that would have been better lmaom they were suppose to go out fighting to defend Bumblebee.
Megatron could have had the Fallen revive Sentinel and then they would not be defeated. Sentinel brings Cybertron while the fallen uses the machine for energon
I can't believe people preffers the first movie just for the nostalgia while this has better action scenes, a better villain and a more serious story
Plus is actually more consistent. Watch literally any Barricade scene in 2007, nothing fucking makes sense
que haces aca
@@86Fallowcp All are consistent
They all good
Better action scenes? Where you can barely tell what's happening. Nothing beats that first scene at the base with Blackout's attack or Scorpionok's attack in the desert. Better villain? Where they add some random behind-the-scenes human guy who's plan is to become a decepticon slave on a lifeless machine planet. More serious story? With a ridiculous "The Office" comedy stuck right in the middle of the movie. This was about as good as the 1st one, except it's longer, louder and more exploitive. Still the 2nd best one. Although, there are only 2 "good" ones.
Transformers Dark of The Moon was truly one of the best Bayformers films
It’s also one of the most brutal, better than the bumblebee movie.
Hey Trans theories has arrived!

@@aguywithalotofopinions412 we dont talk about 3 of them
Bro but no one even mentions IH’s sacrifice, that always bothered me with this film but outside of this I loved it. Jazz got a send off but not someone we’ve seen for three films ?!
Optimus Prime returning to fight saying "We will kill them all" as Portals scores the scene and crowds cheer in the background is the greatest thing you will see today.
I remember everyone in the theatre was cheering and clapping for that scene, it was soooo hype
Yes.
It was amazing it was like end games coming back from the snap but this one was way better
Yeah, NO. Optimus Prime of all people should never say those words. Whatever happened to "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings"?
@@SwiftNimblefoot you just have to have a suspension of disbelief and pretend that the bayverse optimus is a totally different character
i genuinely became emotional watching this video, BayFormers was my childhood and DOTM was a masterpiece for me the first 3 movies were all masterpieces to me because they made me happy, i didnt give 2 shits about the plot but a geniune joy while watching it
Masterpiece lol

You made a positive review for a Transformers movie? Do my eyes deceive me? I'm glad that DOTM is getting the recognition it deserves. The final climax was totally epic and action-packed. And it's definitely the greatest Transformers film to date.
I feel all of them are good but that’s all right. Also I remember you

@@devinjabairemoss
Nah, Bumblebee had better characters, but it fails at everything else and it feels mediocre.
@@devinjabairemoss NO that was mid
I think the thing with Michael Bays movies is that they are fun, they aren't overly serious or edgy, they are just enjoyable
i mean they are serious tho DOTM and AOE were pretty dark

I remember being mad at this movie as a kid simply because they killed Ironhide. Now that I look back at it, based on the plot, story and the movie itself, I see it’s truly a masterpiece. It’s right up there with the first Transformers film by Michael Bay, both of which are among the greatest films of all time.

Honestly the battle of Chicago is better than the cybertron scene in bumblebee. FOC and WFC did that scene better.

Sentinel: Think Optimus!! What will you have in 500 years!!
"I don't care about your exotic milk, I care about respect." This is one of my favorite lines in the entire series. There's something about his way of writing goofy dialogue that elevates these movies for me. Some other notable lines: "There isn't a tighter shirt. We checked.", "I'm not gonna breathe a word of what I saw in there. Who you share a toilet stall with is totally your business."
“50,000 people used to live here. Now it’s a ghost town.”

Me neither. First time for everything, I guess.
Same feels
@Chaabar Yakal Transformer 1,3 are pretty good movie. Transformer 2,4 are kinda decent. But Transformer 5 are shitty as hell.
Personally 1 and 3 here nice, 2 was nice but only because I like the devastator design, 4 and 5 where garbage. I like two less than the others mainly because it was going to be SO much better, we even have a basic draft from the original rotf script and MY GOD that was written by someone who understood the franchise
yea made me rewatch it today
This movie was so good, Marvel copied the entire plot for the Avengers movie the following year.
Yea lol
Lol they really did tho
The beam in the sky part
@@evanroldan9566 and the alien ships and stuff
This movie basically ruined Avengers for me 😂 the battle of New York copied so many elements from TF3 but did them way worse.
I’m a Transformers mega nerd and I gotta be honest: I love the first one mainly for nostalgia at this point. It was a spectacle, a big blockbuster that appealed to 7 year old me… but it gets harder to watch as the years go by. But Dark of the Moon? Actually a pretty good action movie! The only TF movie between the ‘86 one and Bee movie that I think really has anything going for it!
Dude I agree completely!
Come on man. The 2007 movie is still a classic.
100% agree, feel so heard
True, Bee was genuinely good tho, for both action and emotional impact, can’t wait for rise of the beasts, though I’m worried they’ll introduce too much too fast
This helps explain why I always felt that Transformers 3 is honestly the best Transformers movie.
Not only that, the soundtrack and overall tone of it. Truly epic
@@paradoz8375 The Soundtrack is honestly the best thing about the Transformers movies.
In the reboot that started with Bumble Bee, they should hire stronger writers and keep the Baymation in check, but keep EVERY. SINGLE. SOUNDTRACK.
The composers honestly deserve a raise.
Also I’m first, but it doesn’t matter.
should have been the series finale too. 4 and 5 were so retarded
@@chetbeasley The frustrating thing is that the begining of Transformers 4 gave me hope that they could do great and make a great sequel that feels fresh and new, but then the writing went downhill later on, and then 5 pretended that half the stuff that happened in 4 didn’t happen and had no sense of continuity.
With a better director and writers that have more agency, they very well could’ve continued the franchise.
I'll watch it again and repeat my comment. Michael Bay did a great thing with the 3rd installment of the Bayformers film. If anything, we can respect how well he made us care about alien robots. Optimus is badass
still pretty hollow... optimus isn’t a character, he’s a giant soulless killing machine
@@sub-zero5433 There's definitely a character there, it's just debatable as to how well it was done (the later the movie, the more I'd have to start agreeing with you though).
If your best is drowned in your worst off course it will look better, the series is still shit, if he can pull through in the rebooted versions (like bumblebee) ill eat my shoe
@@makhond2498 he isn't doing the rebooted ones so that's good
@@sub-zero5433 ok geewunner
I LOVE how in the final battle of this movie we see different fronts getting small wins that help to the final great win. It also helps to raise the stakes since it shows how much of a sacrifice it is to take out the decepticon army
"50 thousands people use to live here, now its a ghost town"
Damn that gives me goosebumps
The opening of Dark of The Moon is one of the most consistently impactful openings to a movie.
DOTM's intro is the definition of epic, but i gotta give credit to AOE's being dark and intimidating while also still remaining epic as well, even if having epic intro's (as well as the movie) is something normal for the Transformers
@@etam8099 yeah they prepared you to some emotional shit with "humans are hunting us" in the trailer
I just realized this movie is 10 years old. I actually saw this in 3D in theaters and it was awesome!
Lucky
i only just got to see it in theatres and still happy i did !
I remember when this film began marketing and the 1st trailer came out. I watched it over and over with excitement. Seeing it in theaters was sooooo satisfying despite the obvious flaws. Can’t believe it’s been a decade already.
I remember when this movie came out the theater was surprisingly crowded here in Indonesia I ended up watching it with my parents and friends the day after, this and Transformer Prime got me into transformer
Not very surprising, given how popular Transformers was among kids in Indonesia at the time. I remember when my dad ended up getting us tickets to a 3D sceeening instead of a 2D one because all the regular ones were booked.
@@CheemsofRegret nice, yea I guess its not too surprising its just that none of my friends ever talked about Transformer before Dark of the Moon came out so I just assumed it wasnt very popular
Transformers Dark of the Moon is my favorite Michael Bay Transformers film and still is to this day
I liked the first and third movie
@Antonio Starch I think he knows that
The finale bridge scene was the most incredible moment in bayformers history, personally. Not only were the stakes high and at risk, but when megatron (who has been the villain twice before, and undeserving of anything) shoots Sentinel Prime and saves Optimus, that earned incredible respect towards him. Unfortunately five seconds later they turn on each other but whatever. It was fun while it lasted.
in my opinion Optimus killing megatron as just plain stupid as he literally says just before "We need a truce" an opportunity to end the war but nope optimus says "FUCK THAT IMMA AXE YOU IN THE HEAD NOW" so yeah its really Primes fault the movies carried on some more
@@chaoticproductions3922 exactly
I actually like Optimus' choice to end Megatron. It shows he's hardened and become capable of making tougher choices. In other words, he became a cold-blooded, battle-forged badass, zero fucks given.
@@chaoticproductions3922 he was sarcastic when he said about the truce, watch it again.
Megatron killed sentinel and “saved” optimus cause he wasn’t about to be sentinels bitch. And even then, all he said to optimus was what would you be without me
The first trilogy (especially DOTM) is the epitome of how far we can push visual effects! It's insane that this movie still holds up in terms of CG & VFX cinematography over a decade later.
“50k ppl used to live here.. now it’s a ghost town” this guys editing is awesome. What a way to nod at cod4. I respect it lol. I actually burst out laughing when I heard it 😂 good video man

what is PERFECT about the transformers movies, 1. the vfx, 2. the SOUNDTRACK, the soundtrack will always be amazing to me, from Optimus's first transformation to the final battle in dark of the moon, it's incredible imo.
That wingsuit scene has got to be the best action set
And it wasn't a scene. It was done by real professionals of course by imagine how difficult it is to film.
@@aldoblack5982 no they probably can't imagine, since it's easier to just shit on everything Bay does
Christopher Nolan is also a big Michael Bay fan. His cinematographer, Wally Pfister, said Nolan enjoys watching Bad Boys, The Rock, Armageddon, and the Transformers films.
EDIT - And there it is at 2:21. Haha.
So that would explain why Nolan has been including more and more "Bayhem" in his movie since 2012's The Dark Knight Rises.
Both have a shared love for practical stunts.
What about Snyder? It’s clear that he takes a LOT of inspiration from Bay as well, when you watch his movies, from the macho/juvenile tone, to explicit violence (from beloved main heroes even, Batman and Optimus Prime), and epic music, slow-mo’s, and many epic and gorgeous shots/visual effects. Bay is way over Snyder though in almost every aspect.
@@believer4002 I'm not sure if he's ever mentioned taking from Bay but they were classmates at one point.
@@eugeneimbangyorteza - Practical stunts are becoming a lost arm form of film. I get it's more costly and there's no risk CGI, but I do love me some practical stunts (and effects too while we're at it.)
“I don’t care about your exotic milk, i care about respect”
You know what would've made it even more epic? If shockwave got more than 2 minutes of screen time
I can still remember watching it when I was 6 years old, in the movie theaters. One of my childhood favorites
i wad 10 i remember go seeing it with my cousin , so awesome in its ridicoulousness
I was 19 and saw it in IMAX with a dozen of my friends. It was one of my last teenage memories.
Funny how our two generations have completely different positive experiences about this film.
That's something truly special
I was 9 years old when I saw it in theater, I LOVED this movie as a kid.
Michael Bay and "film perfection" usually don't sit together in my head.
Still excited to hear your take!
😄😂 you read my mind here !
@@damianstarks3338 haha
And them theirs me who basically knows the entire script of the first three movies 😂
Haha, same here, except 2007. I only barely know the intro since the rest just fucking bores me to death
same
Exactly my guy I’m gonna make a discord server one day it’ll be called anti Bayverse hate because I’m sick of this unnecessary hate towards it
Saw this one in theaters and absolutely loved it, everything about it. The last 45 or so minutes are fantastic
The fact that you linked your Sponsor to a real world hacking event right after talking about how to use real world to make Fiction seem bigger was a touch of Gold
We cannot forget about the epic war on Cybertron opening
John Turturro is, by far my favorite character in this entire series, maybe in every single Michael Bay film ever made John tutorials Transformer character is my favorite.
14:51
I love the General Shepard betrayal music in the background. It's so perfect, lmao.
This is exactly why Dark of the Moon was 6 year old me's favorite movie. I loved it as a kid
And should where Transformer live action franchise ended!
You are still a kid lol but yeah it is one of the best transformer movies.
You were six? Explains 😂
@@Joecbg100 well when you are born you are 0 years old. 365 days after you are 1 year old. After 6 times 365 days you are 6 years old. Ta da explained for you.
@@LetsPlayGamesRandom thanks for the sarcasm.
Michael Bay in this Dimension: Meh.
Michael Bay in another Dimension: Yeah, i should listen Filmento.
Imagine that
Nice. Soothing. Tkx for sharing.
I love how you’re one of the best “film critics” on UA-cam with some of the most introspective and thought out videos yet you also love Michael Bay action films. This is why you’re one of my faves!!!!
Dark of the moon is one of my all time favorite films ever. I also think it’s a phenomenal action movie
TF3 was a great movie and Should've been the last TF movie until bumblebee. And if you like bumblebee just because it was g1, DOTM was the most g1 like movie compare to the others (having a lot of autobots, megatron with soundwave, shockwave, starscream, and prime with a trailer, as well as having mirage and wheeljack) Bumblebee was good but the first trilogy is better. Even the toys from TF1 and TF3 were the best and the TF4 and TF5 toys were just trash
I disagree, it was the worse. Bloated, stupid, with a convoluted plot and Sam was utterly unlikeable. The 4-5th were better because we actually had characters on the Autobot and Decepticon sides for once, and we replaced Sam with Cade, who was actually likeable.
@@SwiftNimblefoot yeah as if cade only just use a sword to safe prime oh WAIT he didn't even do that. It was that old knight that gave him that stone thing that grew legs. Sam on the other hand literally goes through rough time in the desert and places to look for the matrix of leadership to revive prime. He also was the one who killed megatron with the all spark and not listen to prime's words when he says "put the cube in my chest now" and sam was really funny which makes the first trilogy good. "Unlikable" sounds like one of those terrible tastes. So yeah first trilogy are real tf movies and 4 and 5 sucked and bumblebee decent
Ironically, TF2 had the best line of toys.
@@ngultrum1 yes
4 is great tho
Here I am again Filmento. Not like I come back to watching your videos multiple times anyways.
Same
@@Ecchi_Kun the weird part is that I’m not in film school, or anything, I just love the analysis of film.
@@ENTERtheCREATOR yeah I understand that, I watch for the same the reason, plus it gives me a new view to look at different movies
2:16 Okay the way you use the clip of Charlie going "WOOOO YEEAAHH BABY" is _everything_
I love Dark of the Moon, it's not even a guilty pleasure for me, it's in my list of favorite action movies just for the epic spectacle alone
Are we all in agreement that this is the best one? That third act is one of the best third acts in action movie history.
This movie is my favorite transformers film. I just love Optimus' character in this whole movie. It's like he's had enough and he just kills Megs and Sentinel
Aoe had some great character moments from Optimus too. Tbh, aoe had the best character writting of all of them
@@86Fallowcp ya it really did
I was struggling to remember what the background music was at 14:53 and when I remembered, all the heart ache came back. Justice for Ghost and Roach. 😭🤣
17:34 goosebumps 🥲 the crowd cheering and the epic classic soundtrack hit different
Dark of the Moon is one of if not the only movie where I truly wish I can experience it again for the first time. It made me laugh, cry, scared, angry, and happy all while keeping me captivated on the edge of my seat the whole way through. From Irohides death, to the autobots exile, to the autobots return, everything about it blew me away to the point where I can say this is easily the best film in the series.
Filmento: Transformers 3 - How to Build an Epic Blockbuster
Paramount: SO YOU'VE CHOOSEN DEATH ?
The internet snobbery towards Michael bay movies always made me laugh. Random UA-camr hates Michael bay. But he makes studios billions. Maybe random UA-cam don’t know what they’re talking about. Bay makes movies for teenage boys. Most men at least remember what that was like. Bay knows what he’s doing and he is damn good at it
The internet pseudo-intellectual hate boner for Bay will never cease to make me laugh. I love how one of the most common criticisms about the TF films is always "it's just a smear of CGI metal hitting other smears of CGI metal!"
Oh, so edgy and observant. Bitch, if TF was as visually confusing as you haters love to say it is why was the franchise such a massive success for so long? Are you saying it took FIVE movies for the audience to suddenly realize they couldn't tell what was happening in front of them?
Film snobs have such contempt for the GA it's hilarious.
Why do more beloved and respected filmmakers praise Bay's eye? Are you, RandomJadedInternetFilmTroll69, suddenly more knowledgeable than Spielberg, Nolan, Scott, and Cameron?
@@nope5657 their points is that they usually don't care about the BBB formula, many people like transformers but can't stomach watching the entire trilogy (fuck the last sequels) because it's a repeated formula
The hate boner is justified especially if you look at what's happening now with james gunn and even zack snyder, all of them do decent stuff but they can't break out of their formula whoch for gunn is misfits and for zack it's a dismantled groupd coming togethet
@@magniwalterbutnotwaltermag1479 no hate boner is justified stfu
@@magniwalterbutnotwaltermag1479 It’s sad because I found no flaw in the whole trilogy except for a couple minor ones
Dark of the Moon was definitely the best film. I actually purposely rewatch this one cause it’s genuinely interesting
Even if everyone says this movies are terrible, they are in my heart since I was little
Same
Same...except the last knight, that one is not
@@hades7010 Understandable
That military flying scene was game changer
Same
Filmento re-upload gets more views: *My powers have doubled since the last time we met UA-cam*
Something that applies across all films, is the use of real/live locations being extremely important because if or when you add VFX elements, the best results are those with pieces grounded with real things. If you can get as much stuff done with practical tricks, the less work (and odds of failure or time consumed) is required for when you go to add/adjust any given element
When Ironhide died in the movie, it shocked me so bad, it literally came out of nowhere like damn,
Still to this very day, this is my favorite “blockbuster” films of the Bay Tranformerverse
It is called the BayVerse, but everyone makes mistakes
This is my favourite transformers movie the story and action is in incredible and it’s so god dam rewatchable!!!
Story? Ehh okay.
@@eliaslindroos8383 well the human stuff could be better but I love the story of the autobotsthe most interesting in the franchise
@@robintamplin9870 true
Can't say the story is "incredible" but it's the best among Transformers movies. A story that, like Filmento always says in other videos about "versus" movies, makes audiences FEEL the motivation of both sides and care about them.
Always said this was the best movie of the franchise, glad others are realizing this
Ironhide's death with Loose Ends theme in the background fits incredibly well honestly.
This video truly explains why I feel Dark of the Moon is the best in the series. The tension, the action, the internal conflicts, and the stakes, it all works much more cohesive and far better than any TF movie that came before and after.
Somehow the positive Michael Bay video returned.
im so glad someone else justified my love for this film. I was a teenager when this came out and I remember seeing it like 4 or 5 times in theaters. I loved it. It’s still to this day my favorite Transformers Film and easily the most memorable.
15:12 Sentinel's betrayal was actually foreshadowed, if in a rather meta way. In the beginning of the movie, an episode of Star Trek is playing on a TV, and one character remarks, "Oh, this is the one where Mr. Spock goes crazy." They obviously wouldn't stick an out of place thing like that into the movie for no reason; the actor who played Mr. Spock, Leonard Nimoy, also played Sentinel Prime, who did "go crazy" later in the film.
2:17 the Charlie edit was perfect
Gunna watch this entire video again my man! 🤙 Let's go Filmento Fans!!!
What happened to last the one, was it copyrighted or something?
@@Ecchi_Kun yup it got taken down
@@lalithadavi4845 sounds rough, why was it taken down?
@@Ecchi_Kun don't know he didn't say
I don’t know how you did it but you somehow made me appreciate Transformers Dark of the moon as an art and as the pinnacle to what a blockbuster should be
That 17:25 sequence really showd how everyone felt there or atleast should have felt. I was jumping in my seat the whole time
It’s Back!
Ssshhh
Why did you use Bites the Dust? We're back here again..
I'm honestly really glad this video is back. As someone who grew up with Bayformers, Dark of the Moon and Transformers 07 will always be my favorites from these movies.
A satisfying and great conclusion to the trilogy. Yeah, I said it. A trilogy.
I love how filmento sneaks all the memes into his videos and it always makes me super happy that he memes as well as he does.
