I just love the way they speak to Sam and Mikalya. So respectful and nice like grown adults teaching young children and explaining every detail to them without any annoyance in their tones
That summed up Optimus Prime and why he was so popular. He was tough but compassionate, and also quite paternal. Lots of kids in the 80s grew up with him as a role model
@@shojoe so true, his brother is Marine veteran and had served in Vietnam. He said that is where he got the idea of 'speak softly and carry a big stick' from.

Jon Winkler I do not agree at all, the first one is still great. 2 to 4 is a different story, I still like does to, but I can see why you would not like them.
The first time I saw it was with my niece. When Sam's dog pees on Optimus Prime and when he goes, "He lubricated on my foot!" My niece and I cracked up, thinking that was so funny. We then started randomly screaming, "MEGATRON'S LUBRICANTS!" whenever Megatron was on screen... ah, inside jokes... X)
We may dislike Bay's films now, but odds r when we saw this transformation and Optimus speaking for the first time, everyone was freaking out at how awesome it was
2006-2010 were the beginning of the new age CGI era! Some of the best visual movies came in these years! Transformers, Spiderman 3, Ironman, Avatar, 300, Inception etc are some of the finest examples
And Optimism doing Sam a favor and continuing past the awkward moment. Imagine if he just stood there and just started awkward side glances. But he came through with the assist, you know he's one of us men of culture. 🤣🤣
@@realshtek and to think. if peter cullen (primes voice actor) didnt have a convo with his brother (an army captan) before auditioning, the voice would be different
When Peter dies, so should OP. Maybe he can be a ghost or shown in flashback. No one or bot can do Optimus Prime like Peter Cullen can. Then again Hasbro will find away to replace Peter and keep OP alive.

@@FakeJake5843 Well, genuinely, I'd be a follower of Christianity at that point. No matter the flaws within, I'd go for it. His voice is just... genuine. Prime, even.
I love how Optimus takes super long time and then everyone else is done in like a fifth of that time. Heck, even Jazz starts to transform while he is break dancing!
Eh ironhide and ratchet were actually pretty close to optimus size. Ultra magnus in transformers 5 is also a semi. Just solid blue or black. And maybe a smidge bigger than optimus
When they were on cybertron prime told Alita 1 im taking the kids to earth for the next ten yrs for a vacation from this barron waste land and the next thing you know they filed for divorce and the kids never saw their mama again that's why Alita 1 is not seen untill bumblebees movie the end
Its one of those movie scenes where grown men are not ashamed to admit that they cried tears of joy. And why should they be ashamed? You're watching a hero that young boys looked up to come to life on the big screen and being voiced by the original voice-actor, Peter Cullen. Its like meeting an old friend once again after so long.
I'm younger than most here. I was 4 (going on 5) when I first saw this movie in '07. This and Animated were my first introductions to Transformers. I hold this movie and Spider-Man 3 close to my heart, as they were two of the first movies I have memories of seeing in theaters, even if my opinions regarding them have shifted as I got older.
You're lucky to have been apart of movie history. Those movies were and are a last of their kind. I hope one day good stories like this are re introduced!
I was about 8 when this released, so this and Cybertron were my favorites growing up. I’m currently rewatching Cybertron, so I’ll probably rewatch this film afterward.

That's more of the writers fault not Bay. Also I'm pretty sure they were going for a more darker tone which means it's not as light hearted as the cartoons where everyone lives and doesn't die. So they actually took some risks.

@@t-7777 They all have established nicknames between each other in their original language but those numbers are their formal names/serial numbers. The nicknames are simply translated to Earth’s english. This shows when they choose cars and paint jobs for themselves that match their names. They don’t necessarily *have* to look like that but it reflects themselves. Pay attention to how Optimus addresses the autobots. “This is my lieutenant. Designation: Jazz” “My weapons specialist, Ironhide.” “Our technician and medical officer, Ratchet” They probably have similar serial numbers like J-523, I-684, R-149, or something. They speak our english with traits of their own formal linguistics. A piece of technology would have a “designation”, but for humans we just say “it’s their name” For instance, “We call him JJ” The nicknames for the transformers serve the same purpose as ours. They always referred to Megatron as “Megatron”, not as “M-serial number” I’m sure he has one but Megatron is just easier to say.
I literally teared up when I saw this in the movie theater. Being a transformer fan for about 20 years at that point and seeing Optimus primes transformation done so well was emotional for me. I’ll never forget this moment
everybody has different opinions. and i like the first. and the new one. the new one seems like it is based only on transformers. and the old ones seemed like it was based around sams relationship problems
Remenber, Optimus transformation alone solos the hole CGI that we have in recent years, I wish years later after this comment someone likes it and remind me of this Piece of Cinema.
1:03 "Okay Shia, in this scene there's gonna be a giant robot bringing himself closer to speak with you, remember to back up a little because you're in awe of his presence and massive size. Whatever you do don't walk or lean forward because it's gonna look like you want to kiss him or something and that will be awkward as fuck for the animators. Alright, quiet on the set. And, action!"
When Peter Cullen orginally trying to find Optimus voice for the original show someone told be don’t be afraid to be gentle… be strong enough to be gentle
Iron Hide "You Feeling Lucky Punk" Optimus Prime "Easy Their Iron Hide!" Iron Hide "What? i Just Wanted To Show Him My Cannons! That made me chuckle xD
0:59 whenever this moment starts, I can't help but laugh because of the voice over meme of optimus saying "Have you ever played the hid game Among Us?"
I freaking loved this movie when I was little and I still do! I swear, the transformations here are so spine chilling!! It's like, in Optimus Prime's introduction, it truly feels like you're seeing something mighty!!
At the minute mark, I heard the voice of a friend I haven't heard since I was 10. Peter Cullen's Optimus Prime is like that neighbor who used to tell you War Stories when you were a kid and even helped you play war who moved away for a few years and then when he returned he was just as cool as you remembered him.

How does optimus know bumblebee's name before it was b-127 and bumble bee hasn't even told him yet
@@t-7777 They all have established nicknames between each other in their original language but those numbers are their formal names/serial numbers. The nicknames are simply translated to Earth’s english. This shows when they choose cars and paint jobs for themselves that match their names. They don’t necessarily *have* to look like that but it reflects themselves. Pay attention to how Optimus addresses the autobots.
“This is my lieutenant.
Designation: Jazz”
“My weapons specialist, Ironhide.”
“Our technician and medical officer, Ratchet”
They probably have similar serial numbers like J-523, I-684, R-149, or something.
They speak our english with traits of their own formal linguistics.
A piece of technology would have a “designation”, but for humans we just say “it’s their name”
For instance, “We call him JJ”
The nicknames for the transformers serve the same purpose as ours.
They always referred to Megatron as “Megatron”, not as “M-serial number”
I’m sure he has one but Megatron is just easier to say.
@@jxynothere but in the movie bumblebee at the end optimus calls him b-127 and then bumblebee replies by saying my name is bumblee
@@t-7777 The Bumblebee movie is NOT set in the same universe as the Bay movies.
I literally teared up when I saw this in the movie theater. Being a transformer fan for about 20 years at that point and seeing Optimus primes transformation done so well was emotional for me. I’ll never forget this moment
Many cinaphiles including myself consider this a piece of timeless cinematic history that will always be remembered.
The visuals didn't age very well but ill take it any day
@@windyjay4627 ur crazy cgi looks better than most movies nowadays
@@Blasian_guy my cgi?
@@windyjay4627 bs
@@windyjay4627the CGI still looks great have you seen some of the shitty Disney Marvel shows ? Or DC The Falsh ?
Optimus Prime has more acting range and facial expression than Megan Fox tbh.

Megan Fox cannot act whatsoever. She's only in Hollywood because of her looks tbh.

Peter Cullen:well ofc ik him he's me!
@@coldwater9540 more like "hey it's the robots from Fortnite!" Ugh, this new generation is pure cringe -_-
1:32 this explains why the decepticons want to kill humans...
Huge props to the Autobots for seeing the internet and still being willing to protect us 💀
"How did u know about his glasses?" Optimus Prime says, "Ebay."
Yeah cause sam was trying to sell them on Ebay.
Ya
This is still one of the coolest movies I've ever seen.
I still have goosebumps watching this scene. The first time they transformed and the background music. It's so perfect 👍
I agree with you on that! Goosebumps and a chill down my spinal array, this scene gets me everytime.
1:09 MY NAME IS OPTIMUS PRIME
AND I'M ABOUT TO BUST, ON THIS BEAT
"He accidentally activated his navigation system"
Archibald: *spins a spiny thing*
Didn't know what he was doing. Didn't mean to activate anything, probably.
the only miachel bay transformers movie that didn't outright blow ass
i liked this one, and the new one in theaters right now.
GoofyDaGoofGoofTV the new one sucks! This one and revenge of the fallen were the best
everybody has different opinions. and i like the first. and the new one. the new one seems like it is based only on transformers. and the old ones seemed like it was based around sams relationship problems
i thought the first 3 where good
4th one was better.
Wen I first saw optimus it gave me a chill up my spine
Because Optimus is bad ***!
Willow Prime butt
IKR? I fucking LOVVVVE him😍😍😍😍
Remenber, Optimus transformation alone solos the hole CGI that we have in recent years, I wish years later after this comment someone likes it and remind me of this Piece of Cinema.
Jazz was honestly my favorite. I mean Sideswipe in ROTF and DOTM was a good addition and you could tell he was supposed to be Jazz's replacement.
@M Y T H I C A L N O V A well he died anyways
@M Y T H I C A L N O V A did you forget the part in TF1 where megatron ripped him in 2

No one:
First lieutenant Jazz: "what's cracking little bitches?"
Optimus: my first Lieutenant destination jass
But I don't know?
"My name is Optimus Prime."
The most simplistic line can somehow be the most badass thing ever. Long live Peter Cullen AKA Optimus Prime.
"How did you learn English?"
"The World Wide Web"
He must of stayed away from UA-cam comments.

"Okay Shia, in this scene there's gonna be a giant robot bringing himself closer to speak with you, remember to back up a little because you're in awe of his presence and massive size. Whatever you do don't walk or lean forward because it's gonna look like you want to kiss him or something and that will be awkward as fuck for the animators. Alright, quiet on the set. And, action!"
You my good sir deserve every award possible.
I want to see that part without the CGI. Must have been strange,
Mark Arandjus Bay had to have said that!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤡🤡
Remember watching this movie back to 2007 when I was seven.
This movie made me a big transformers fan,this is what I called childhood memories.
This movie made a fan too. I was 14
Same here, our childhood was one filled with grandiose epicness, I miss it.
God I love his voice. So strong yet gentle.
When Peter Cullen orginally trying to find Optimus voice for the original show someone told be don’t be afraid to be gentle… be strong enough to be gentle
No matter how much flack these movies get, seeing Optimus Prime and the autobots transform for the first time in theaters is a thing of miracles.
Iron Hide "You Feeling Lucky Punk"
Optimus Prime "Easy Their Iron Hide!"
Iron Hide "What? i Just Wanted To Show Him My Cannons!
That made me chuckle xD
Our medical officer, Ratchet.
He's like chill dad i just want to show them my new toys
The boys pheromone levels suggest he wants to mate with the female

Sam: “How’d you know about this glasses?”

i laughed when i first heard prime say that XD
0:59 whenever this moment starts, I can't help but laugh because of the voice over meme of optimus saying "Have you ever played the hid game Among Us?"
1:49 Hmm...the boy's pheromones level suggest he want's to mate with a female...dude come on,hes girl is just right there!😂
I grew up as a kid watching this back in 2007 (I was 8). The feels...such good memories, and this scene gives me chills everytime.
"My name is Optimus Prime" I cry every time I love this movie
Optimus: We are autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron.
Ratchet: But, you can call us Autobots for short.
Shia: Autobots
Jazz: What's crackin lil bitches

I freaking loved this movie when I was little and I still do! I swear, the transformations here are so spine chilling!! It's like, in Optimus Prime's introduction, it truly feels like you're seeing something mighty!!
1:59 check out the rep yep, second to none!
At the minute mark, I heard the voice of a friend I haven't heard since I was 10.
Peter Cullen's Optimus Prime is like that neighbor who used to tell you War Stories when you were a kid and even helped you play war who moved away for a few years and then when he returned he was just as cool as you remembered him.
Optimus always had me wondering why he transformed slowly 😂😂😂.
Hey dude wsp❤ uwu
C?
I think it's because he's near humans which are very sensitive and delicate beings.
Because he knows he's the goat
The boys pharamon level seems to be extremely high cause he wants to “mate” with the female
Awkward

She didn't even overreact! Lol.
@@jaredruff9823 Yeah. Both Sam and Mickaela were like: "I don't know what you're talking about."
Also, it is "pheromones".
0:11 Mikaela takes a deep breath as if she's preparing for that epic transformation of Optimus.
The cgi and the soundtrack of this film still kicks ass dude... Im still getting goosebumps after all these years...
Arguably the most iconic moment in cinema
No, fat boy. Just... No.
