DVD Commentary – 1986 Transformers

You check in, but you don't check out. Megatron

must be stopped, no matter the cost. Why throw

away your life so recklessly? That's a question

you should ask yourself, Megatron. Welcome to

this special DVD commentary from the GeekCast

Radio Network. I am your host TFG1 Mike, and

joining me is Steve Megatron. Hello. Hello. How

are you, sir? Doing very well. This will actually

take the place of the Mallrats episode for this

week on MWIRE. It will be released also on All

Things Transformers and the TFG1 podcast. And

you guys might be saying, well, why the hell

are they putting it on all three feeds? It's

because we are doing a commentary on Transformers

The Movie, the 1986 animated film. We both have

the 20th anniversary DVD edition, yes? Yes. OK.

I will be watching it on a PS2. Steve will be

watching it on a laptop. So we are going to sync

this as best as we can, seeing as how we're not

actually in the same room. And again, Mallrats

and all that stuff for M -Wire, the Kevin Smith

films, those will still be coming out in order.

This will actually be episode 33 .5 for M -Wire.

I just have to get the Kevin Smith DVDs, and

I haven't been able to do that yet. So there

may be other DVD commentaries that M -Wire has.

I don't know yet, at least until I can get those

movies. So do we have anything else we want to

say about this? Before we get started No, I think

that's good. Okay now Which are you watching

the first disc one or disc two version? Okay,

I am watching Well, it doesn't matter I am watching

the full screen edition because my I have to

get a new copy of this because for some odd reason

my um my disc one Sometimes won't play all the

way through and it'll start skipping on me. So

I know the disc 2 version works better So I'm

watching it in full screen But as of right now

we should both have the main menu pulled up where

it says play scene selection set up bonus features

And it has alternating alternating images of

transformers right now. My screen has Rodimus

and RC up Okay, so For those of you who are listening

to this, we are hitting play now. You see a Matrix?

Yep. The Gong! Yes. And everybody should be seeing

DEC. I can't even read what the hell that says

underneath what it says. I never knew at the

time this was a Marvel film. Yeah, I... I think

I noticed it, but it didn't really sink in yeah

What's that thing that's not in transformers

Laura what the hell is that oh boy they're introducing

something new You know, if you took the, um,

if you took Unicron's ring off of him, his ring

that goes around his planet that'll show him

being energized later, if you took that off of

him, he would just be a giant Death Star. chemicals

yes chemicals stilling planet exploding look

it's unicorn yeah I can tell you right now I'm

probably gonna be saying a lot of lines from

this yeah it's a very easy movie to quote at

this point in time having seen it so many times

oh yes and unicorns digging it for a bite You

know, he can almost be an equivalent to Tarantulas.

Yeah, with his little mandible things in the

front and... Yeah. Wanted to take a bite out

of crime. Of course, it's probably why they call

Tarantulas the spawn of Unicron. Hmm, could be.

Opened up his big jaws and now he's sucking the

planet. It's like eating a big orange. Munch

it, munch it. Oil it and mash it. No! Shut up.

Well that's what he did. We can't sully this

commentary with crap that we do on Beast Unleashed.

No, that's what he literally was doing. Didn't

say the other part. Yeah now the infamous Transformers

theme intro and done by lion who apparently according

to the creators on the On the DVD special features

for this 20th anniversary DVD they said that

at the time they wanted a rock soundtrack and

They wanted an updated version of the cartoon

theme And apparently in 1986, Lion was the most

famous band or most known band to do so. I had

never heard of Lion before this movie. Quite

honestly, I haven't either. And as the credits

roll, we saw Eric Idle as being the voice of

Rekgar, Judd Nelson as Hot Rod. Hunter B -Boy

as Galvatron. Yes. Which is a role he does not

even acknowledge he did, bastard. Magnus. Yeah,

I agree. Rest in peace from Robert Stack. Lionel

Stander as Cup. I didn't know Robert Stack was

dead. Yep. Orson Welles as Unicorn. Yep. A week

to the day after the shooting of the movie. John

Machida. He has the Guinness Book of World Records

as being the fastest talker ever. Didn't he voice

him again in animated? Yep. Or is that his son?

No. Well, I'm not really sure if it's John Machida

or if it's John Machida Jr., because I've seen

it written both ways, so I'm not really sure.

But it is the same guy from this and animated.

Let me take their homeland. Oh, there's Laserbeak.

Spying on the Autobots construction units. I

never noticed that before. Ironhide was looking

in the camera and seeing a shockwave through

one of the building windows. Yep. There goes

Ironhide, all pumped. Yep. In his minivan. What

Prime's looking through? Yeah, it's funny. Michael

and I mentioned on Toycast 47, because he talked

about G1 Ironhide and I talked about the robot

heroes version of G1 Ironhide. The Ironhide toy

from 1984 does not have a head. Well, it does.

It's just behind that glass windshield piece.

No. There is no head. At all. It's just the windshield

piece. They've made custom heads the encore version

of it had Where you could get a cardboard head

and put it on top. So but yeah, whatever And

a lot of luck Laser beaks going to tattle Some

of my other warriors, you never fail me. And

they show Starscream. Yup. You know, when I was

a kid, and even when I was a teenager, I always

thought he said, Playback Laserbeak's spy deeds.

Of course, that's not what he said, but... That's

funny, those lines on the screen. that it's showing.

That's actually how an actual video camera records

a picture. The fall of some classics. Makes you

wonder how they went this long without Megatron

just saying, you know, why don't I just blow

their heads off? Yeah, you know, I have a serious

problem with this. Now, I love this movie. Don't

get me wrong. I have a serious problem with this.

Right in the shoulder. OK, he's dead. Yeah, he

did get hit in the shoulder. But in the very

beginning, as soon as they break in, right before

Megatron says, die Autobots, you hear Shockwave

saying, Decepticons. Shockwave isn't even in

the scene. Well, it wouldn't be the first flub

in the movie. True. He does get shot in the face,

but then again he does fly back in in the middle

of the Battle scene later Braun is not Braun

is not dead by the way. I'm sorry He's not because

he showed up the shoulder. I know but you know

the whole the whole point of this was say you

know they're they're reasoning was all as well

so they're coming out with a new toy line and

because this was written in the very first season

of the cartoon they had to kill off all the old

toys oh hey it's many spike yeah they had to

find some way of uh... with the story line along

Well, they had to give you know somebody to hot

rod to or you know to introduce this whole new

character True Looks like a little like go Here

comes the hot rod theme. Oh, can you say hello

back to the future? Oh, yeah, they so stole that.

Yep. Well, actually... No, they did. They...

Well, when was Back to the Future 2? Um... Because

that's when he got it. Oh, that's right, 88.

So they actually stole it from this. Oh. Eh.

Pete Daniel when you can see everything from

Lookout Mountain I found out I want on this commentary

or not this kind of the commentary but on the

DVD on the disk one you can watch the Autobot

Matrix of Leadership Trivia game where it shows

like VH1 pop -up video stuff Lookout Mountain

is a actual place. It is in Chattanooga, Tennessee

That's just one of hot rods differentiating transformations

Yeah, he transforms many different ways. I Always

liked him when I very first saw him because of

this the whole x -ray spy thing That's never

been used since Is what? That's never been used

since oh Boy, don't even get me started. I know

but Kind of like Autobot Floyd, yeah Squish Down

auto brat He looks like he's gonna blow away

hot rod go cup Look at that flip just stood there

like what do I do cups like you move you know

I see myself as hot rod and I see Michael Wilson

as cup see who's cup Michael Wilson yeah that's

probably why his nerves about some things. And

he gets on my nerves about some things. Also

an interesting note, Autobot City was originally

supposed to be deemed Fortress Maximus and then

they changed it to Metroplex. Oh good thing they

did. Yeah. We're outnumbered you green bastard,

die in a fire. This is the other reason why RC

and hot rod should be together they have the

same damn ability But that green bastard has

to come between them fucking piece of puking

shit Well, he won't be there much longer well,

it's debatable but I think he died not this movie,

but yeah That's pretty cool how it just folds

up, you know, it's like piece of armor after

piece of armor after piece of armor Starscream

really shows he's got balls here. Of course if

he would have stayed down there he would have

been safe. Just goes to show you how stupid Starscream

is. but he decided for once not to be a coward.

Isn't this funny, huh? How many cannons are coming

out right here, and yet? And huge amounts of

armor, and yet the Decepticons still get the

upper hand. Yeah, the perception on that shot

of Megatron shooting the thing, I know he's in

the air, but it makes it look like he is like

10 times large and the door is like extremely

small. should be walking through it. Yeah. The

insecticons are in our way. Wrong. They're our

way in. Road bump. Boom. Speed bump. Crunch dead.

Interesting enough Bombshell was not in there.

Rumble, Thundercracker. I missed Ironhide, I

didn't see him. But I know he's there in that

in that shot just a second ago and yay blaster

Funny transforms and then it plugs them in frenzy

ravage ratbats eject oration interference this

is the first time you see ratbat too which he

uses a lot post movie he took the place of laserbeak

yeah shells you really don't see the other ones

anymore after that for the most part well you

see rumble and frenzy sometimes not as much You

know, I wish they would have done a whole episode

with just the cassettes. No, fuck headmasters.

I'm talking about in G1, I wish they would have

done a whole episode with the cassettes fighting

each other. Yeah, it gave him a little bit of

character depth, too. Mm -hmm. Blur's hilarious

here. He's just complaining about everything,

and then he's shooting it through all the windows.

Yep. Autobot City's really looking like crap

at this point. Mm -hmm. OK, now, do you know

who those two are? Huffer. Nope, that wasn't

Huffer. That's wind charger and wheel jack. Oh,

yeah, never shows either one of them die, but

wheel jack ends up back in later incarnations

of this Well brainstorm, yeah Well, I mean he

actually comes back This always pissed me off.

I know they're trying to appeal to kids But why

the hell is a little boy gonna put his back in

his ass up against a fucking rocket launcher?

Makes no fucking sense. That kid's not gonna

be able to move the thing. Well, especially with

three transformers pushing it, or four, and not

being able to actually budget much. God, it's

merch for the kill. Look. Devastator. Interesting

reason why Minasaur and none of the other, you

know, Minasaur and Superion and all of them weren't

in this was because again, they wrote this in

season one and Devastator was the only one available.

Well, you can die, you green bastard. Firecracker,

that tickles. You think they'd have some bigger

missiles? Watch out! You'd think they'd have

a defense against crap like that. There's Huffer,

right there next to Perceptor. Oh yeah. Another

one of the Never Seen Agains. Yup. The fences

are broken. Let the slaughter begin! Also as

a note Yeah For only for shown actually if you

I haven't actually been able to do this But if

you pause on a scene later in the movie not obviously

now we're doing the commentary But if you're

just watching this, but sludge had a Looney Tunes

moment Later in the movie when hot rod and and

the rest of them are coming back in that corkscrew

looking ship. If you pause it on the screen just

enough, you will see Snarl. He must be stopped,

no matter the cost. Enter Stan Bush. Well, we

already heard Dare, but this was his famous 80s

song. There's Swoop. For a second there, I thought

he was gonna hit blitzwing, but then you see

thrust boom You know technically they should

all be dead not just wounded bastards The Primes

are pretty much dead on shot. Why throw away

your life so recklessly? It is Primes fight,

little friggin' stupid hot rod. Shut up. Never

saw where cup was when he was talking to him

though off -screen Okay, I thought he was like

up above when he went hot rod was running up

those stairs No cannon for you. Yeah, but I got

a razor blade bitch Or take that prime laser

sword I never understood how you know cutting

him in the headlight Well, I I guess you could

equivalent it to his rib, but they're gonna be

like a symbolism of chopping him, I guess, I

don't know. Well, you know, slicing a rib or

something. Prime again gets you up your hand

and throws Megatron by the head. Prime shouldn't

have even talked to him, should just shot him

in the face. Yeah, but that's not, this is not

ROTF Optimus. No. that's why this one is more

like he's not like give me your face this shot

right here I love this shot of optimus pointing

you know waving the gun oh this shot right here

where his leg kicks up I started crying when

I was Six years old as soon as I saw it well

when he fell as soon as I saw him falling like

oh crap It's over pride Never background looks

so fake here. Yeah, I Love that hit though that

he did to Megatron Yeah, hey, I Always loved

astro train astro train was one of my favorite

decepticons. He's so cool Little cassette carrying

his cannon See if they were to just call prime

to begin with like A bunch of Decepticons are

flying in. Prime would have been like, OK, I'll

be right there. That's why they should have cloned

him. You know, that's the only problem I have

with Astro Train's shot. His transformation,

he flips upside down. So all the Decepticons

should have flipped upside down. Yeah, they should

have crashed into each other inside. Yep. Perceptors,

no, er, no ratchet. Ah, the introduction to the

huge plot device. Yeah, that'll forever haunt

Transformers history. Oh, I like the Matrix of

Leadership, I don't care what anybody says, it's

awesome. I like it too, but... It's just a plot

device in every show since. So we learned transformers

lay eggs. I love this. This is so cool to see

this. that nice little detail inside the master

piece right? yeah I know I hated this now that

I know that they were doing this but that's foreshadowing

right there why not just I mean I know it's a

whole point of plot to give it to magnus and

have him go through what he went through but

why not just let hot rod keep it now and just

figure everything but anyway and magnus already

had a matrix in his chest before he puts it in

he has he has a double compartment he should

have gave the fake one to the decepticons and

like here you go go away leave me i'm a coward

Grimes dead and he fades to black. I was gonna

say he's not dead yet until he fades to black

or gray or whatever. Charcoal. Graphite. Unicron's

pissed. Mm -hmm. Instant replay. Just in some

wait or I'll never make it to Cybertron. Let's

have it. There's shockwaves in there. Oh, no,

it wasn't shockwaves. It was Blitzwing, but it

looked just like shockwave from behind. Yeah.

Oh, how it pains me. How it pains me to do this.

Wait, I still function. Starscream. If he would

have just kept Megatron in there, he wouldn't

have had an issue. constructicons form Devastator

most powerful robot we should rule superior constructicons

inferior what are you calling inferior if he

likes an end charismatic fool like you makes

it bore uncrossamatic unite no way How would

they have enough room to have Devastator in there?

I don't. Astrotrain is all - Astrotrain is the

same height as everybody else. I know, but -

I don't think about it. I don't know, they had

to show the infighting. Be like, uh, I'm gonna

pull over right here and let somebody out if

you don't stop. I always liked that image of

the scratching on the horn there, that was cool.

You know what I'd like to see? I know this will

never happen, but I would have loved to have

heard or been in the same room with Frank Welker

and Leonard Nimoy doing Megatron Galvatron at

each other. That would have been funny to see.

That would have been awesome to see. But then

again, Leonard Nimoy is a dick and he doesn't

even acknowledge that he did this role. I like

the final shots of Megatron here. They actually

have like a lot of detail in them. Oh, yeah,

the transformation. Yeah, the transformation

was badass, too But this stuff right here. Oh,

okay Nobody new troops to command and nothing

notice on the edge of Unicron but Making the

silver it felt like what looks like s are and

some other letter It's gone here, but it was

in the last few scenes of right in this area

I Wonder what the significance was of that because

it was in the last few scenes could be somebody's

initials Now notice Megatron. He hardens and

he goes clear so his battle damage is gone and

Now the trance I love this amazed me They're

melting him down. Creating him. Getting rid of

his primitive parts. Behold, Galvatron. Head

on over to tfg1podcast .wordpress .com and look

for my mystery revealed blog post because I painstakingly

took images, screencaps of all these shots. Trying

to figure out who got changed into who. So there

is no more confusion of who became who. Well,

Thundercracker's Scourge. Yep. Which I can duplicate

the voice of Scourge, but... Not Thundercracker.

Ew. Thundercracker's too difficult for me. Yeah.

What was the point of even having... Nemoy do

the voice for him if he's not going to do it

past the movie. They wanted star power for this.

Okay, and they kept people that sounded just

like the other guys, whereas they changed Galvatron

completely in season three. Well, that's because

Nemoy wouldn't do it anymore. I don't think Nemoy

ever had the intention of going past the movie.

No. Did you see all those golden, what looks

like Decepticon leaders of the past? Yeah. When

supposedly Megatron was the founder of the Decepticons

for the most part. Mm -hmm. Neither I. I think

I'll pause and wait and see what this is. My

coronation! Coronation Starscream? This is bad

comedy comedy. That's one of the reasons why

I like Galvatron He finally did something Say

what you want about him in season 3 and in rebirth,

but he finally Megatron Galvatron whatever they're

the same guy Finally did something right and

killed Starscream Galvatron. Pinna just said

I don't want to be Galvatron, I want to be Megatron.

2 .0. It's feasting time. Yummy yummy in my tummy.

Last time you see Casey Kasem do a voice in Transformers.

Yup. What I want to know is where the fuck is

Hot Rod in this scene? We see everybody except

Hot Rod. by Prime's dead body. What? I'm saying

he's probably grieving next to Prime. Oh. Ignition

and hit hit. The gravity well sucks him back

in. kept some of the season one guys such as

the Dinobots, Bumblebee, Cliffjumper, Jazz. Yep.

Not very many, but Spike doesn't really count.

He's not a robot. He's just a wannabe. Well,

he was a robot at one point, but that didn't

work out too well. Where's Spike's dad? Yeah,

that's what I want to know. Where the fuck is

Sparkplug? That's one thing they never carried

over. It's like he never existed at this point.

Yeah, exactly. He was there until the end of

season two and then nothing. Yep. But I think

they're kind of insinuating he's dead. Like Megatron

sat on him. Shit, what are we gonna do now? The

first swear word in the Transformers franchise.

My green ow my eyeball I belong to nobody Hey

look gold Decepticon insignia foreshadowing for

shattered glass No, that was red. I know but

it's different. Yeah true. I Love that ship carried

that over either yeah they did not for very many

episodes no not for very many episodes but it

does make an appearance in season 3 kind of like

Unicron's various showings yeah Just feelin'

it blows up big robots. Uh, Galvatron. He'll

crush you just like Megatron crushed Prime. He'll

die turning just like Megatron. Hey, look! Scourge's

head popped up! This should be the couple not

that green bastard As you see that she really

wants him well, yeah Poor blur Grimlock not nice

dyno me bash brains I'll get you for that You

know that shot of the sweeps just now? Before,

well no, before Grimlock fires on them as they're

flying in, they almost look like Decemticon symbols.

I could see that resemblance. It's important

to get out of here. What was this for Cymatron

Sink? Talk about petrol rabbits. He reminds me

of a dog. Yeah. Sticking its head in your face

with its paws. Yeah, it's that giant German Shepherd.

It's like, tell me a story and throw a bone for

me to fetch. What the fuck does that even mean,

you dumb green bastard? You can't fucking walk

in space without a fucking exosuit or space suit

or whatever, you dumb green bastard. Now how

the hell does she get left out there? What the

hell? That make any damn sense? This Springer

was an asshole. Well yeah, and his hand is like

four times the size of hers. he probably just

crushed her hand he's touching her butt right

there in her arm yep green bastard yeah the fun

part for him and they're off away from the earth

abandoning metroplex You don't even care he's

been punched in the face, he just lays there

and wants to hear the good part. Star Wars, anyone?

Yeah, I know it. That's like Obi -Wan Kenobi.

Yeah, they fought ahead when they designed these

ships, unlike the Ark. Yeah, and the other thing

that really pisses me off about this is Cyclonus

does not have a speaking role in this. Even though

he is credited in the credits, but he never talks.

Yeah, he does. No, he doesn't. He did during

the coronations. No, he didn't. Yes, he did.

No, he didn't. He told Galvatron that, remember,

we belonged to him. No, that was one of the sweeps

that did that. shenanigans anyways wolf I'll

I'll get you a screen cap after we do this because

I know it was one of the sweeps because it was

one of those nasally kind of voices like this

here we go saucer separation or Star Trek got

it. Believe it or not, Transformers influences

other kinds of sci -fi. track for the transformer

movie. Yep. Fish Planet. Oh yeah it was one more

or two more DinoBots to say instead of anybody.

Okay now this is the only time we see the razor

blade. It was a plot device. This is like his

27th different transformation That's cuz hot

rod likes to switch things up there you go Okay,

now this is not the only time we see him use

the guns I did see and I did get a screen cap

of him using the guns in season 3 so Whoever

told me or wherever I read it that someone said

that this is the only time he uses his his arm

guns is wrong Yeah, I knew he used him in season

3 You're blind now Ink yeah, it was a squid not

an octopus, but it's an eight -legged freak It's

like a floating island. Ha! He got hit right

in the fucking head, you moron. They just randomly

have one of Spike's old exosuits in the ship

that they escaped in. And, uh, last time we saw

Spike on Cybertron or InSpace, he didn't need

no damn exosuit when he and Carly went up there.

Ranger for you Offer expires while you wait operators

are standing by That one's awesome right there

how he does that well we've grown out we've been

involved now without making some movements all

offer the marriage on goodie expensive no reciprocating

very expensive no more He's driving on two wheels.

Weird place reminded me of some place else. This

is a pointless, like, judge and jury system.

It doesn't matter what they say, they kill them.

Yeah, it's all backwards. Krennic survived, wow.

He survived for now. Well, I meant he survived

Unicron's eating of his planet. You were the

weakest link. Good. Bye. Eww, that is shocking.

The most annoying character in Transformers history.

Well, Daniel takes the cake as well. Especially

once you team them up in season 3. Although I

prefer these guys over any of the humans in later

shows. Oh, the Dinobots? No, I'm saying Wheely

and Daniel I prefer over any of the humans in

the other shows. Meh. Other than oh, you're talking

about like like that bastard kicker. Okay. Okay.

Yeah, like any of the unicorn trilogy. Hey, yeah.

Oh, yeah This has got to be the dumbest thing

I've ever seen. It's an exo -suit. It's supposed

to be like a robotic space suit. How the fuck

can the damn thing transform? Wanna wheeljack's

final inventions maybe? What? The exo -suit.

I don't know. I mean, it's possible. Although

it's funny that Exosuit makes another appearance

with Daniel later in season 3. Yeah. It's the

finger holes, Ultra Magnus! See the sweeps look

like Decepticon symbols Stretching fallover boom

Lots of pieces With this I shall make you my

slave You need to work on your unicorn impression,

buddy, I know I don't do unicorn anyway, nobody

can cap your lay worse and wells Who'd want to

try? I don't know It's like why don't you just

spare me this bullshit and just say yeah feed

him to the shirt kinds Let's hold a demolition

derby I love this. up to shark decons. Shark

decons are like, uh, yeah, I'd rather not go

after these guys. Yeah. They're like, it doesn't

look too crowned. I love that flip. I love Hot

Rod's flip there. That's so awesome. Look, there

are a lot more of those, you know, cracking things.

Where the fuck did he get the mace? He tore it

off one of the shark decons. Oh, the tail, the

plug. Okay, yeah. Oh, you hit me in the teeth.

And all the other ones, like, just shake... claw.

Oof! Talk about a makeover. I love this. Squish.

Tentacles. Dinobots are like, we're hungry. Excuse

me. to munch metal where the hell is it damn

camera is it on his tongue could be this is what

you're eating seafood Wheeling doesn't look like,

if you look at that last scene where Hot Rod

bends down to medium eye level, Wheeling doesn't

look that small in comparison to Hot Rod. of

this whole thing with Rettgar. That's a handy

gat. It's getting the stain down. That's the

trick. They just keep transforming into the motorcycles.

Yep. But you don't check out. Sword. That's the

only good thing about that green bastard is he

has a sword. Oh, I'm going to run you over with

my car that I can't get any traction on your

junk planet. Okay, now this is the scene if you

pause it right There if you get it in enough

time as they show the outside of the cockpit

you will be able to see snarl That's wild It

took me yeah, it took me forever to even get

it there Why are the Dinobots and everybody dancing?

I don't know. Smash the printer 90 -day warranty

Good thing This is something that pissed a lot

of people off. How can you let optimus prime

die? Put ultra Magnus back together put some

water on him and he's back alive. Oh It wasn't

water. It was car wax knit. Well, whatever It's

gone. Unicron. His friends act now! Destroy Unicron!

Kill the Grand Poobah! He ain't even the toughest

studying! Junkyard planet is sleep sexy import

with turbo handling What I want to know is how

is it that everybody else in this movie outside

of the Transformers or Well, the Autobots knows

who the hell Unicron is Cause apparently they

weren't that well educated. They just know how

to... Megatron and his group, that's it. You're

a decepticon, you fool. It's the finger holes

Galvatron You underestimate me Galvatron Most

awesome giant transformation in Transformers

history. Yeah If rebirth wasn't done by crappy

Canadian animators I would have said that the

fortress maximus transformation was cool as hell

too. But no, this is easily the best like supreme

class transformation ever That's the last you

see a shockwave Never officially dies though.

No, but I mean I Don't remember him in season

3 at all no That's what we're going to find out.

Okay Darth Vader, you can stop now. It's funny

the ship goes in and then you never see it again.

Must've just pierced something else in his brain.

I always was scared to death of these things.

Unicron has special little tentacles in his belly.

It's called antibiotics. And again, Galvatron's

color scheme continues to change. Yeah, it keeps

changing from like blue and purple and gray to

white. Right, but it hardened a little bit when

the last torture happened a second ago. He's

standing on the planet. I can still shoot with

my one eye! Grimlock's like I could still kick

your butt Kick butt You know snar yeah, um swoop

and slag are the only two that actually did need

damage Yeah, the other ones were pretty much

useless He actually licks his stomach I Love

that shot of RC. That's so cool with the gun.

Oh, yeah What I want to know is where the hell

did Springer RC and cup go? I mean we know where

Daniel went obviously, but they don't show up

again until the end. Apparently they didn't go

very far. I don't know. acid. It almost looks

like iron hide. I'm assuming this is meant to

be stomach acid, but why would it have a container

and a cover? Yeah, that wouldn't make any sense

for a cover unless he transforms and he didn't

want to have it. you know, spill all over himself

when he flies. I don't know. The insides of robots

are way different than the insides of humans,

but I mean, I'm assuming that that is meant to

be stomach acid. Oh, I have no idea about that.

Probably not. Hey, Galvatron. Boom! Right in

the face. I love this scene. This is just so

great. hit by a car headlights really hurt blinding

this is funny This holds onto him and then strangles

him. You know, we've had three exploding transformations

in this movie. I just now noticed it. You had

Optimus in the beginning when Blitzwing and everybody's

shooting him, his trailer explodes and he doesn't

even make the transforming sound. Then Ultra

Magnus. prime slash quote of the movie. What

I was saying was, you've got Optimus in the beginning

exploding out of his trailer. You've got Hot

Rod exploding as he's driving away, transforming

when Galvatron shot him a second ago. And then

when Hot Rod shoots back at him as Galvatron's

in cannon mode, he explodes into robot mode.

Galvatron's on his way? Yeah, it doesn't really

make much sense. See it's the finger holes ultra

Magnus Even hot rackets in it Okay, now his brain

exploded his leg pops off But his brain exploded.

How can he still talk you cannot destroy my destiny?

Because he's got a secondary one. Oh, that's

stupid a fuse See it's like where the hell did

they come from where did they go in that flooded

earlier? Look famous last words Transform and

roll out How much potential you didn't know As

we march forward to a new age of peace and happiness.

Till all are one. And they all chanted. Yes.

Welcome to our cult. And thus ends the movie.

They have regained Cybertron. Which surprisingly

doesn't look as bad as it did in the actual Season

1, Season 2. It looks a lot better and then you

get to see Unicron's head floating in orbit as

the new moon Yep, and the end credits start.

Yes, they do. So we will be stopping the commentary

now We are currently seeing the cast and credits

roll by so I am going to hit stop on mine You

know, I really love this movie I'm not going

to really talk about it too much because obviously

we've already kind of spoken on it with the whole

episode 16 of TFG1. But just overall, one of

the best animated movies ever. Oh yeah, go down

about that. I mean it's one of my favorite, it

actually is my favorite Transformer movie of

all time. At the same time, it's just an awesome,

awesome animated movie. Yes, it is. So this ends

the three -part, well, not three -part, but three

-feet exclusive of The Transformers, the 1986

movie, DVD commentary for all things Transformers,

the TFG1 podcast, and MWIRE episode 33 .5. We

will see you next time. Magnus, and now you.

It's a pity you Autobots die so easily, or I

might have a sense of satisfaction now. You got

the touch! You got the touch! Arise, Rodimus

Prime.
