  • i still remember to this day as a 12 year-old seeing this movie and crying like a baby.

  • OMG!! I used to watch this but i cant remember what the cartoon is called!! Does anyone know and can tell me plz?????

  • @FallenTomato390 ......

  • doesn't he always come back to life?

  • ultra magnus was such a bitch

  • i was crying for 1 hour :(

  • Call me a jerk, whatever you want... But I laughed at this. :]

  • @z00mforever thats not cool dude, even if it is a cartoon. It still hurts.

  • @RockDemon971 It's still my opinion, sorry. I never liked Optimus at all, and I think Rodimus was a better leader.

  • all 17 dislikers were decepticons

  • OPTIMUS PRIME = BIG BOSS

  • The Bravest Warrior! OPTIMUS PRIME

  • damn you f-ing deceptions :'(

  • Did he really die or just die in this series?

  • All of the robots i have Seen In my childhood.. he was the most........Robotic....

  • this video title should be One of the many deaths of optimus prime

  • "Of my friend I can say this. Of all the souls I have encountered in my travels, his was the most....robotic"

    - Bumblebee

  • @jedispy i got that. hehe.

  • He went out like a Boss.

  • @TheTraveler12 when i was a kid and saw this i actually cried..

  • it's so touching... :(

  • he wasn't even alive for the first place

    hes a freaking robot

  • @ZzRvXzZ No fucking shit, I thought he was a man in a suit. * sarcasm*

  • @Rosebunse I think I pretty much agree you. :)

  • I miss this serie, i hate the new serie, its look so bad ....

  • i remember watching this and thinging FUCKYOU OP!! DONT DIE ON THE BOTS!

  • That was very well done, an a great song to go along with it.

  • Did he just said "Rosebud" when he dropped the Matrix?

  • @Kidobriza lol

  • the chinese will just make a cheap copy of optimus prime for the autobots to buy. welcome back made-in-china optimus!

  • i almost cried, but its hard to cry when you have such a big boner from seeing optimus' face

  • It's a fucking robot. A fictional robot.

  • @CoolGuy62093 but it was optimus fucking prime, more human than that guy from fox news

  • @CoolGuy62093 lol noob

    

  • @CoolGuy62093 You just need a soul. Optimus was a role model for most of us as kids.

  • My personal theory is that Rhinox from Beast Wars is Prime, just with a new identity. Note, this is my personal theory.

  • @MrChrisPaul75 LOL, techincally, Optimus Primal is a different character and for what it's worth, I liked him better than Prime. But that's just my prefrence. I grew up on Beast Wars, not G1.

  • My God was this movie violent. Don't ever complain about violence in the Micheal Bay movies until you've seen this kid's movie.

  • @Rosebunse OH please.

  • @dkyx Have you ever seen this movie? You don't know animated violence until you see this movie. The entire first 15 minutes of this movie is devoted to brutally killing almost the entire cast from the previous season!

  • @Rosebunse Rose I grew up with TF g1, I've seen the movie and series countless of times and have had boxes full of TF toys.

    It's robots against robots, violent only in the technical sense of the word.

    And about that scene you speak of, yeah robots tend to explode when hit by lazuuuhrs ;)

    TF was never meant for kids under 6 or so, and the G1 series had plenty of similar "violent" scenes, just less detailed.

    Animated violence, meh, try Akira, then watch the Transformers '86 movie again.

  • @dkyx I kinda meant that all in the context that this was made for little kids. Of course, Akira is more violent, but it's for adults. As a little kid, this movie would be horrifying. And Bay's Transformers may have been violent, but, as you said, it's for adults and teens. What makes this movie brutal is that it came out of nowhere. For a little kid, this would be shocking. But, to each his own. I still like Beast Wars and Beast Machines better. DINOBOT!

  • @Rosebunse Animated violence or no, the concept of a permanent defeat/death only truly hit home when it happened to Optimus Prime to some kids who watched it. So it was, at least, with me. I was a bit young, and in my case, I didn't realize that so many characters would never return. In any case, animated violence in this movie is nothing when compared to more modern counterparts, like computer animated games like Resident Evil for GCN or Wii.

  • @nobodyitellyou I just meant that violence is relative. This movie was pretty violent for its time. It's like comparing Night of the Living Dead to the modern Dawn of the Dead. While one seems relatively tame now, it was considered really, really violent and horrible in its time.

  • what the fuck is in optimuses trailer?

  • @bioniclemaster1 I always ask myself the same thing; "What does he carry in there?"

  • @DrejStinger1986 in the tf3 movie he has a sick ass wepons rack system but idk a out in this g1 storyline

  • Proper nostalgic right now... remember crying my eyes out when I was around 6 years old. Killed off around half of my toy collection within the first 15 mins of the film, so sad man...

  • @needSupply He comes back to life cursing

  • @needSupply I was watching the behind the scenes of the movie. One of the producers said that getting rid of the old toys so that they could bring in the new ones was half the point. However, I think they took it a little far.

  • I admit, this made me cry. very hard...

    Optimus Prime, your legacy will never die as long as we still believe in you.

    LONG LIVE OPTIMUS PRIME! OUR HERO!

  • noooo noooooooooooooooo not again not this scene ..oh crap im crying!

  • its all hot rods fault

  • The only reason optimus stayed dead is because megatron killed wheeljack, and ratchet first so they could bring him back :(

  • I remember screaming, "NOT AGAIN!!! NOOO!!!" at the part when Optimus dies in Transformers 2... then he comes back to life.

  • @revygam i did the exact same thing!

  • @revygam not quite the same as the origanal because the g1 movie had me sobbing!

  • @revygam Optimus has to die-it doesn't matter how-at least once per series for him to be considered a real prime.

  • @revygam Get this: I've actually died and come back to life before! Twice!

  • My god, it makes my cry! D:

  • i remember watching this as a kid and crying

  • T-T there always will be a two places in my heart, one the love of johnny cash's music and optimus prime, leader of the autobots,

  • meh i've seen worse people who cried when they were kids are sissies

  • His death to this day, still fucking hurts. DAMN YOU PRIME! YOU AND YOUR INCREDIBLY HEROIC SACRIFICE, FOR SCARRING MY CHILDHOOD!

    Pee. ess. You're still the baddest mo'fuckin' machine. ever

  • Didn't they just kill him off only to be remade as a different truck so Hasbro could sell more toys?

  • this don't surprise me, optimus is like goku he dies almos 5 times ever chapter

  • hes a hero we never ever gonna forget the biggest hero from my child hod

  • This is one of the saddest things I remember seeing from movies, other than Spock's Death. X(

  • man, that just had to happpen

  • NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! The song ended D:

    JUST KIDDING, but I do like the song...

  • I crayed a week after he died.

  • If you didn't cry when Prime died, you must be a cylon...

  • (davincent98) This is a depressing song. The official video makes it worse especially the release date. This video was well done considering the source material.

  • i cried of pure awesome of optimus prime

  • Shabba3k

    thank you for this wonderful video, one of the best i've seen. long live optimus prime

  • Wow! You did a great job on this.

    From a video editing perspective it's great how you transitions with the fadeout effects from color to black and white memories.

    From a transformer fan perspective...I was moved.

    Kudos on this!

  • Optimus  actually dies in season 3 [dark awakening]

    in a sader way

  • nice vid man loved all of it:)

  • You've taken one of the most pivotal hero-worship moments of my youth and combined it with one of my favorite songs as an adult. Thank you, sir.

  • @crispyconcerto. Nine Inch Nails originally performed this song. Trent Reznor sat in during Cash's recording of the song and gave it his blessing. Rather, passed it o to Cash as "his song", and no longer Trent's. He went on the record to say that Cash's version brought him to tears as Cash delivered it better.

  • its very moving, very beautiful...I feel sad!

  • did anyone know that the nine inch nails covered this song?

  • Love transformers,love hurt,but the attitude of this song doesn't reflect prime at all,sorry

  • thumbs up if you think optimus prime is the best

  • Cool video. I still remember seeing this movie at the theater. It is holy to me.

  • This had me in tears when I saw this first time in the Transformers movie in 1986. Optmus Prime can never die!!!!! And wtf Hod Rod??!?!?!?! He's like the crackhead autobot transforner :-(

  • love the song

  • not a fan of the song, but Johnny Cash, my nan likes him so I guess great video

  • You almost made me cry you ass. Thanks for that.

    P.S- When you showed Daniel during the "You are someone else" line were you going for the while Optimus Prime thinking "i remeber when you were spike" kind of thing?

  • DAMN... This vid really gets you emotionally.  Equating the Matrix to an empire of dirt... genius. Makes you wonder what Op would have changed in his life.

  • I can't watch this movie without crying.. Love G1 , Love Optimus ! Great job !

  • The views are wrong...

    instead of 124,409....

    it should be 1,124,409. XD

    Great video man!

    I love Optimus!

  • @SamND1967 1,127,395 cant stomach the pain of optimus prime die!

  • @paladindarknite I think so.

    Made me cry....

    But, I guess since I'm a 12 yearold girl...I can't help it. =/ lol

  • This is a great tribute to the beloved Autobot Leader.....

    You made Primus Proud.....

    :-)

  • Optimus Prime is a wuss. For that matter the entire concept of transformers SUCK!

  • @Ranchangene Congratez you had no childhood ASS?

  • @Ranchangene So that's why you're watching their vids on YouTube, huh? Makes sense... :P

  • i love that movie im 33 now and i remember going to the movie theaters to see it. cried they should've never killed off prime. i stopped watching after that.

  • what the????

  • Great video. A little heavy on the B&W though

  • Good video. Little thing that I would flip around. Whenever it says "The needle tears a hole" that is when I would show the part in the vid where Megatron throws the spike into Optimus' side. Otherwise damn good song. You got the emotion of Prime's battle with Megatron down pact, his death. Love the black and white sequences. And yes Cash's version of the NIN classic is way better.

  • I love Optimus Prime. HE ROCKZ

  • I remember when Optimus kicked the bucket (no pun intended) back then, felt like a kick in the teeth when I saw that in the Movie Theater. T_T

  • R.I.P. Optimus Prime

  • Optimus Prime's Circuits are alive as long the autobots believe at him... YOUR ARE HERO...... OPTIMUS PRIME!

  • Well he came back at the end of season 3 and becae leader for the rst o the show agian anyways

  • @franciz009

    He came back later in the series... If you clap hard enough they do come back.

  • @viraticwars

    your unexpected peter pan reference made my day. thank you, One Of Good Taste.

  • @franciz009 wow ur getting way to into this its a cartoon

  • Optimus Prime will always live among Transformers fans

  • What's name this song??

  • hurt by johny cash

  • Hurt from Johnny Cash, originally from Nine Inch Nails

  • hurt was originally from Johnny Cash.. not Nine Inch Nails.. lol.

  • Dude, Trent Reznor wrote the song, so you are wrong.

    I think that the cover by Johnny totally blows the original NIN versions away with the feeling he sings with.

  • Nine Inch Nails made it back in the early 90's.. LOL

  • i remember prime dying, my friend cried out NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO and ran out of the house, he even did it at the revenge of the fallen, ran out of the theaters, he never comes back at the moment optimis coming back to life -.-

  • :'(

  • I had a small revelation watching this and its rooted in the fact that Optimus really got in the heart and soul of a lot of children.I know it sounds silly saying a celluloid character did this but he did.I mean he really got into our hearts.Thats why so many cried and still feel the pain in watching him die. I feel little tears even now watching this. I know for myself, he was like a father figure. The makers of this cartoon really did an exceptional job in humanizing him.

  • I agree. Optimus is one of those characters that I think writers have to be truly inspired to come up with such heroic traits and such a humbleness that makes everyone love him.

  • well said

  • i remember when i first saw this as a kid i was crying it was like u couldn't kill prime off its just not right too. now watching it feels the same just without the tears

  • one of the most traumatic moments of my childhood!

  • Kill Megatron! Kill the other Decepticons! KILL THEM ALL!

  • It would be cool if you saw old footage of Prime vs Megatron. Both in battle and teaming up.

  • love the song but dislike that prime is diying

  • Its from "Transformers the Movie"...

  • its not a spin-off...its the ORIGINAL transfomers movie..back in 1987

  • @balvear this is the old cartoon btw

  • @balvear this is the old cartoon btw he probally downloaded it in HD so it looks different

  • i saw this movie when i was a kid. i cryed when optimuse prime died.

  • lol me to it was one of the hardest moments of my life.

  • asu bastante bueno el videin, pero..=(

  • too bad they've pretty much made dying a game for Optimus Prime in later universes <_<

  • Good song but you should of used Nine inch nails version.

  • I remember it was like losing a great friend.

  • this song makes me wanna cry :(

  • this song is jonny cash hurt but good

  • i cried too.

  • i cried as well. seeing every lil kids hero die. it almost like a part of your childhood memories dies with you. the song really helped out as well. Optimus Prime FOREVER!

  • The Death

  • beautiful song................

  • Well, that was truly awesome, you did a great job man!

  • This movie was controversal. I talked to Susan Blu who played the voice of Arcee on the phone about this movie once, and she didn't seem to care. Shame on all of these people who made this movie! Sunbow and Hasbro are also to be blamed!

  • Why do you say it was controversial? Is it because it was an obvious way to reinvent the brand by killing off major characters? Perhaps this is so, but many things about it (especially the deaths) make it the classic it is, held in higher regard than not only its peer animated movies (GI Joe, Thundercats) but even other sci-fi movies since.

  • Hey man, everyones entitled to their opinion, so I've left your comments up. I dont mind all the stuff you've written because to be quite frank your retarded spelling is more than enough to amuse us all. Keep up the good work (or in your case "giod wprk") ;)

  • It's such a drag that kids like you have such easy internet access. Go read a book or something or stay in school rather than acting like an E-Thug who thinks cussing and swearing over the internet is cool. Dumb kids these days...

  • 96? Sweet! Is that a true reflection or is it really 100 and you're just being modest and subtracting a few here and there because some aren't really words? I'm impressed, I've never been sworn at by someone who types so fast! idk you too!! :)

  • Clever people who respond with subtle criticism instead of flaming! Thank-you for promoting intelligence and good conduct on the internet.  There may be hope for our species yet.

    ...oh and very nice amv, too. :)

  • technically it's not an amv since the show wasn't an anime :P

  • still an amv cartoons are animated.

  • Now that Tinwoodsman has their typing speed down pat, maybe they should work on their grammar and spelling.

  • sorry for the ruda and inconciderate behavior i am a fan of transformers to i to know it hurt and my cusing is bad i should have never actided hat way i was being a jerk so sorry and i have a question so add me please..

  • Very Powerful. loved it.

  • Best Transformer MV ever. I remember sitting in the theater still shocked at Ironhide and Ratchet getting killed with Braun and Prowl on the shuttle. Along with the others they showed dead in the battle Wheeljack Windcharger. And then Optimus died. And well I died a little inside too. Truly Epic work well done.

  • yeah i remember that also, i was just a kid, and i was. and cried a little, lol he was my hero man.

  • :'(

  • :')

  • "f**k you Hot Rod!

  • I cried liked hell for days...

  • "sniff"

  • i like super girls!!!

  • This still bothers me till this day.....And im 31!!!!

  • I think it was a big mistake made by the creators of Transformers of killing off Optimus Prime. I've heard he was dead for good. Luckly, protests from fans of Transformers caused the creators to bring him back to life.

  • the creators didn't know prime was such an iconic caracter...

  • when did they bring him back to life?? i wasnt a transformers fan i was too little, but hearing comments hear, seems the transformers series is something worth watching, ill see if i can watch the animated old movies

  • I believe it was an episode from the Transformer series, titled "The Return of Optimus Prime."
