I saw this movie as a child 3 or so times in the theater in 86..... 20 yrs later, my son (who's now the same age I was watching this when it came out) and I are watching your video here, and he knows all the words.. haha. Ironic
Love this song! Still gives me goosebumps. I didn't grow up with G1 but I still love it. I also loved the movie (1986) even though basically all of the original transformers got killed in 10 seconds. I think Soundwave was one of the few that survived.
This is actually quite well done, especially the very simple but appreciated syncing of TRANSFORMERS being said lining up with the title card. Hope you don't mind but I'm linking this from my blog, so you may see an additional 3-4 or more views in the coming days. Woop de doo.
Transformers (G1-Beast Machines, including all the Japanese shows produced in between) is my #1 favorite show. This is my favorite theme song, & I have yet to see a better video to go along with it. Marvellous job!
THe michael bay version of this song sucks 2 times worse than the movie..and thats pretty hard. Death to MIchael bays bastardization of a great story.
Ok, here are the robot names in the vid---astrotrain. devastator,superion, omega supreme, dinobots, autobot city (which if transformed, is a rolling fortress with antimatter cannon!), tripticon (the other decepticon huge robot!)...the rest, you should know
It's a shame they didn't do more G1 stuff & even the movies are terrible compared to the original show/movie. Most cartoon/movie adaptation did pretty decent but Michael Bay just threw humans in the equation more then the original show ever did which is a war between Autobots & Decepticons, not hey lets throw in sexual humor & have the kid saved the world, even Spike was far better in the show then Sam, a clumsy horny kid. Really.. lol i thought the movies were a total fail.
For many peoplethey lived without transformers... because it got replaced by... by... STUPID ASS POKEMON. whats that ass you didn't caych a pokemon well i dont give a fuck. there was no story or morals so kids ended up fuked up because tv shows do more than the parents. Please bring back Transformers G1 please.
i wish i was born on 1984, then i could tell all the kids nowadays about how awesome generation 1 was. I'm only 11 but i really think generation 1 should take the spotlight once again. i really miss it... optimus was turned in to pussy, starscream got turned into a pancake and bumblebee got turned into a DOG!
>:( i'll always love g1. it will always be my favorite ;)
@YouGotPwnedLMAO Wait but you would have missed the great beginning of Transformers and would've grown up with that stupid Autobot Rodimus prime as the leader so it would've sucked. Try 1975 you would be 9 years old when the series started and you could actually remember the great show
With transformers being redone over and over again, in my eyes the original will always be the best. The characters were great and tons of em, millions of toys. The original movie is a gem, the soundtrack went well with the movie and losing optimus was one of the biggest blow a animated movie could do to me back when I was younger. Man what does this new generation have now... pokemon?? what a shame...
I grew up on this my son loved the movie been wanting to see more of them since I found some at a library maybe they will get the rest of the box sets
i just noticed...at 2:15, optimus shoots soundwave...yet in the film you see soundwave carrying megatron's shattered body back to astrotrain...guess optimus' shot just glanced him then :p
I figured that since the decepticons took control of Cybertron they were probably at their peak efficiency. Defensively and Offensively. The Autobots only managed to beat up or cripple the badguys with their best shots when the Decepticons were knocking guys off left and right with one shot. Boy, Shrapnel took a shitkicking in the movie didn't he? Got run over by Hotrod then Kup knocked him into the pit in front of the city. Prime runs him down then blasts him in that final scene.
I love G1 its the best so much heart put into it, from the characters, to the design, to the story.
MY favourites where allways Hot Rod yes i liked him and sure i liked the idea of a younge person thrust into command, you got to see how he dealt with it but nobody could replace Optimus Prime. Kup the old bot was cool too and i liked Soundwave i mean who dosnt. Galvatron was cooler than Megatron but Megatron was always the best Megatron was just pure evil.
I'll be honest with everyone, My favs, right up there beside Optimus, were always Ultra Magnus and Soundwave, Cause they took their orders like good soldiers and did their jobs right.
the new theme sucks...f@#$#@ng emo kids have spreaded their stupid music everywhere..80's generation want Lion theme instead cuz IT ROCKS!!! We also want the headbanger's ball back in MTV
i had to reply the only thing that sucks is that Hotrod gets Prime killed. A little piece of me died with him on that day. Than they took Starscreem from us. Since then there has never been a better left hand man or a leader in any movie Tv shows... (untill they bring back Prime) 1 question what movie in your eyes is the the better of the two 1986 or the 2007
Hmm, thats kinda tricky for me to answer. As both are two very different continueties, I liked the 1986 version coz its animation and story was very captivating, although, they could have(like you said) not kill off our fav bots!
On the 2007 movie, well the 3D is intense! And Peter Cullen is still Prime!! Thank Primus!......But, like alotta ol skool fans, why are they so so different?
They hav become Bayformers!.....Still I liked the movie, it's nice to see 3d and transformers work together. I think Bay pulled it off pretty well.
Well I can't decide which is better, I really enjoyed both. I agree however that its all Hotrod's fault that Prime got killed! Lol, Bay made sure history didn't repeat itself, so Megs got to die!!
The battle's over, but the war has just begun. That's the way it will remain until the day when all are one.
