  • Michael bay is a Joke.

  • "It's over Prime"

    "NEVER!"

  • Wow.

    

  • WOOOOW THIS IS SO FUCKING EXELENT ! ! !

  • Who the hell was the idiot who thought G1 wouldn't look cool on screen in CGI?

  • @O2STK2 1. No one would take most of these disguises seriously.

    2.Megatron as a gun? if you want a midget as a main villain thats your problem.

    3.putting the touch or any of those songs during a battle scene will make it look like a joke.

    4. the desighns in the movie are great, though they shouldve atleast tried to look like the WFC desighns, still.

  • The original and this masterpiece are clearly more better than Bay's transformers.

  • I was watching an interview about the death of Optimus in the original movie and they said if they remade the film, they probably wouldn't kill him again. That along with this animation and I will die the happiest guy on Earth.

  • Didn't need to see the tagline "They were always real to me."

    Awesome work, though!

  • I Really liked this!!!!!

  • Alright, this is a cgi version of the transformers movie from 1988 or around that time just to tell those who don't know. What they should do is remake that film like this. It will get 100x amount of views at the theater

  • @TheKhfreak2

    What was this CG footage actually from. I also saw that some1 had done an amazing job @ making a Voltron Live Actio/Computer Generated teaser trailer. Wondered if there was ANY posability that it may have been real. I LOVE VOLTRON: Defender of the Universe. The teaser was of the best series, King of Beast: GoLion (Origional name). I swear it made the Transforers movie look like it was made with software that was outdated @least 5 years B4.

  • @PirateTravisJohnson1

    It mat have also been based apon Voltron Force. My bad 4 not giving it recognition. Isn't it based on the origional series anyway?!? I also wondered 4 a long time if there were several series due 2 a competition with Gumdam. I prefered the 8th MS team over ALL the rest. SD defenders sucked with gumdamns. I like my Chibi 2 B still Images or a GIF @ most.

  • so much better then bay's films

  • wow!who made this?you should make a tv show like this or even a movie!

  • Holy crap! That was incredible!!!

  • Never!!

  • 3 people got crushed by Megatron's bare hands.

  • I thought Michael Bay did a great job of updating Optimus Prime, he looks more gritty and realistic but with the same overall design as the original, but why couldn't Megatron look more like this?! I mean, here, he actually looks like... well, MEGATRON! In the new ones he looks strangely bestial and more generic than the original, streamlined, and expressive design.

    Anyhow, awesome action scene, I hope if they do a different trilogy, prequel, or reboot, they look like this.

  • I am 17 years old I am apart of the 90'sish generation and I think G1 is a thousand times better than Micheal Bay, also the new movie sucked and worst of all it was more about the FUCKING humans more than the name of the movie, sigh.

  • wow transformers would be so gay if they looked like this

  • @legomonster27 what? you prefer those damn tin-toilet tech transformers Michael Bay filmed that had Megan fox over the classic designs!?!?!? Shame on you man....Now that is gay.

  • @apollo2345 um i think micheal bays designs that takes months to create, are ALOT better than blocky baby toy lookin robots,.

  • @legomonster27 robots that looked ripped apart than proportionate...its takes a lot of hard work but bad design...Check japan's GAIKING movie and see the difference, at least the robot there doesn't look a bad rusty mis happen skeleton and has a recognizable look AS A ROBOT than something that looked like it came out of arts and crafts class.

  • @apollo2345 A Decpticon Leader who sounds like he has smoked since he was created and transforms into a gun is gay dude, Those box looking things would never have made it onto the big screen, it would have looked stupid and nobody would have liked it, except the die hard G1 fans of course

  • Respond to this video... 

  • @8911145533 sorry man but I prefer my robots more like the ones in ROBO JOX than something that looks it had a bad welding job...But still good attempt, Im expecting it more like GAIKING.

  • @apollo2345 Well Robot's doesn't look like the G1 did anyway:) An alien race of robots who can transform into different things would probobly look more like the Bayformers then the walking boxes in G1:)

  • @apollo2345 okay...you got me...you win there since the whole realism of a bionic alien DOES makes sense. Dang, I totally forgot about realism.

  • @8911145533 The G1 designs, no, but Bay's insistence on the robots having their innards visible ("doo-dads") was dumb. They are over-complicated. The Japanese aesthetic of sleek robot design works better.

  • Tears are welling up in my eyes, this is how it should be!

  • Hey Michael Baye, watch and takes notes, bitch !!! This is how it's done !!!

  • awsome !

  • OH WOW PLEASE TELL ME THERE GONNA RE DO THE WHOLE FILM WITH THE ORIGINAL SOUND AND MUSIC THE SAME, THIS IS AWSOME SOOOOOO GOOD PLEASE REALEASE THIS ON DVD WOW WOW WOW A DREAM COME TRUE

  • Why the hell couldn't they make a proper G1 movie just liks this. This was perfect. A full length movie would be bloody awesome.

  • no this isn't at all faithful to transformers

    I can actually tell what is going on during the fight

  • From transformers the movie

  • PERFECT, except for the sound which took me by suprise, not an insult I know it is hard as hell to find good sound out there but, damn this was nice.

  • WATCH AND LEARN MICHAEL BAY!!!

  • there's never going to be a G1 motion picture just face it. -_- there may be something resembling G1 (story) but the way optimus and the others look is always going to be modern. The onlything I see wrong with these new series and movies is that optimus has a mouth... I mean, Da fuck is he gunna eat? Cereal? EnergonO's? I don't think so...

  • @EdwardBeStupid actually there are 2 dude Randallng and DR.Smoov who made transformers brand ceral commercials.

  • When Bayformers has ended and a new film is about to be made; then this it what i wanna see. I dont care if Megatron never transforms, but with this and a few nice updates of the rest, like subtle changes in their looks not giant ones, then im home in transformers world

  • BOLLOCKS!!!!!!! I just pressed thumbs down when i meant to press thumbs up. SHITE ! Anyhow, i dont know who made that but that was fucking ace. i wish hollywood had that kind of vision. even copying the original fight was far better than the shit "mr bay" can come up with.

  • 2 people didn't know transformers are real

  • I would of liked a little more power in the sound and look of Mega's cannon. But thats just a personal opinion.

    This beats the shit outta RotF

  • Yeah. Too bad they forgot it was a series about big robots and made it about some...whatever dumb fucking plot.

  • now THESE are what i call real looking transformers in real life

    in michael bay's version, they just look like junkyard scraps piled together

  • When I saw this for the first time, I pictured an epic fighting game, with many, many onscreen Transformers duking it out along with brutal one on one robot combat, complete with such famous G1 faces as Prowl, Soundwave, Ratchet, and Shockwave. I got ROTF. Hasbro, please make this game. PLEASE.

  • See this a couple of hundred times!!! This CG1 short doesn't even make mistakes of the 80s flict as that noob hotrod is no where to be seen.

  • @Dwnshifter I agree with you COMPLETELY!!!. HOT ROD is the MOST IDIOTIC CRAP I HAVE EVER SEEN!!! HIS IDIOCY COST PRIME HIS CHANCE TO FINALLY END MEGATRON. BUT, NO.... HE HAD TO INTERFERE, MAKING OPTIMUS' CHANCE OF ELIMINATING MEGATRON DWINDLE DOWN TO ZERO...

    PIECE OF CRAP HOTROD!!!...

    sorry, about that. just had to let that all out...

  • If you do the rest of the movie like this I will buy a copy. With real money.

  • 2 thoughts on this. 1) This is better then Bay's version imho because Megatron and Optimus look the same from the movie but with a few tasteful yet subtle additions. and 2) because the bots were rendered as such, you can actually see them fighting. I mean you can actually tell there is 2 different bots fighting and not just a giant lump of metal clinging anfd clanging like it was in Bay's version.

  • @mechanism8 "2 different bots fighting and not just a giant lump of metal clinging and clanging like it was in Bay's version"

    MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!

    .

    And don't even get me started on the 2nd movie's Decepticons that ALL LOOK ALIKE even in slow motion!

    .

    At least Bay backed the camera up somewhat in teh 2nd movie and did more slo mo shots so we could discern what was happening,

    sure that CU/fast cut style works for energetic human shots, but METAL ROBOTS FIGHTING is all a metallic blur like that!

  • Very nice. I would enjoy seeing a G1-type movie or series done in this style.

    I enjoyed the Bay movies, but this has an entirely different sort of appeal.

  • Always liked this. But I still think ILM's work with Bay's Bots are damn fantastic.

  • Seriously, i love both G1 and this video...but people who actually think that THIS looks better than Bayformers...youre just lying to yourselfs.

  • @Marobot The shade effects on THESE robots are realistic. Do you know how discouraging that fact alone is about RotF?

    And in terms of Designs...Yeah these transformers are impressive. It's not the "oh original must be best", I loved the TF:Animated appearences too.

    It's the shape really. Bay's robots break apart in to many places to the point where they look like scrap statues.

    The Bayformers look like Aliens, not Robots. Nough said.

  • @MaidRoze In Bay's defense... they ARE aliens. And also robots.

  • @Volkai AGAINST Bay though: They are a technological species. Not Techno-Organic, not Organic. Just Techno. The other thing is viability, Bay's robots seem a LOT more vulnerable just by their design.

    Basically: Marvel/Dreamwave/etc Transformers look like Giant Robots.

    Bay Transformers look like Giant Aliens with fitted armor.

  • @Volkai Yes but when even Bay's TF's "scan" locals for their new alt forms, even their robot forms change somewhat (Bumblebee in the 1st film, the Twins in ROTF).

    Doesn't matter if they're alien or not. The scanning process can change their look to something more earth-like (G1 familiar) simply from what they are scanning.

    Am I making sense? If so, some1 explain it to me, please. :)

  • @Marobot This plays to nostalgia much better, though. It's the Optimus Prime and Megatron everyone recognizes from the 80s.

    And if G1 Optimus Prime vs. G1 Megatron is what you're looking for, then this looks MUCH better than 'Bayformers', regardless of how the newer movies stand on their own.

  • @Marobot I completely agree people these days review adaptions by nostalgia not how good it really is

  • Prime would have gotten his shot off there before Megs the way you have it now, but it's still really good.

  • EPIC! G1 will always be the best!

  • Man you're a beast at this.

    Only nitpick is that Megs' eyes should be red though.

  • Dude, you should consider extending this short. It's the bomb.

  • Dude you rock!!! Michael Bay should have been replaced by you. You understand the Transformers Legacy it has on Fans!!!!

  • so someone with limited tech made a movie that was g1 and still awsome take that michal bay.

  • dude bays transformers weren't that bad they were pretty good they're just trying to appeal to todays younger audiences i grew up watching the transformers back in the 80s and was like awesome and saw the movie and i was impressed about it. so take off the dress and stop whining about it.

  • Awesome Graphics!...

  • Dude... You are teh Awesome!!!

  • Wow, this is bad-ass. Can't believe it's been on here two years and I haven't seen it.

  • That is amazing! Shows just how wrong Bay was to re-design the Transformers into those walking scrap metal designs.

  • This looks fantastic! You need to get more classic scenes from the '86 movie rendered like this. Oh for the full movie looking this great...

  • anyone know if there's a higher quality version of this anywhere?

  • i think they should re-do the 1986 movie in this style, that way we can have both an animated and cgi g1 film

  • very good

  • Cool! It reminds me of bayformers!^^

  • This is way much better than Bay's Transformers in so many ways, G1 is still the best.

  • @DULCETSUNDAY , why THIS is by the best 3d transformers i've seen, and Bays' TF looks gay compared to this

  • @DULCETSUNDAY I totally agree

  • @DULCETSUNDAY And yet the new show is clearly based on the Bayformers...

  • @DULCETSUNDAY when that 1st one came out thats what i thought it would look like but it is what it is.

  • @DULCETSUNDAY that's just the opinion of die hard fans. in today's world this would just be ridiculous to make a movie off... the only people who would like it are the g-1 fans. they have to make it so every audience likes it and not just you.

  • @DULCETSUNDAY They should've made the movies like this. G1, except with Megatron as a tank. A NORMAL, earth tank like in Armada or G2.

  • @DULCETSUNDAY

    You're absolutely right. Because unlike G1, the movies are full of continuity errors, non toy-accurate animation models, animation glitches... Oh, wait...

  • That kicks ass. I would pay good money to see that at the cinema.

  • It was so simple, but no... Hollywood had to screw everything

  • now the question is did you do this yourself

  • Fantastic!

  • Spectacular! Like Robot Chicken on 'roids! Much better than Bay!

  • I'd love to see the original cartoons redone with this type of CGI. Just remove the old Sunbow animation and insert this type of imagery with the original voice actors.

  • This is EXACTLY what I wanted out of the new movies.

    Michael Bay eats yellow snow.

  • Respect! Take that Michael Bay!

  • omg, this is better than the movie

    I freaking love it!!

  • Why can't we have a special videos like the Batman, Iron man and so on? Something much better than Transformers Animated.

  • Bad ass....period...

  • Well think on this: Some of the actual toys in the 80's did not psyhically match the characters in the cartoon very well either, but the cartoon was how we identified them...meaning a better medium between reality and function could have been achieved than those horrible ginzu gargoyles M.Bay came up with. Optimus with a mouth? Come ON!

  • agundis, i think optimus with a mouth is fine, he had one in g1, problem is, g1, it was a flexible mouth, they didn't need mouthes while on cybertron, but they had to connect with humans. why the decepticons needed mouthes? teletran 1 decided. the bay optimus was BAD in that the lips were metal plates...but they could make fuzzy dice and soft leather seats! wtf? edit bays movie to include real lips!

  • a g1 movie remake would be awsome, the same just like this.

  • @m4g35l4y4r here here I would love it if they did this remake!!

  • @althebunny it woulnt be the same as the orginal cos well its the original but it would still be cool. and i think that megatrons original voice actor died, but i dont know.

  • @m4g35l4y4r Frank Welker is still alive.

  • @m4g35l4y4r

    Nah, It looks ok there sure, but there are no humans in any of those shots. You put those boxy 80's style cartoon transformers in a live action movie juxtaposed with real human actors and it would look absolutely ridiculous.

  • @abone114 i agree, but haw about a new animation of it then? that would still be good.

  • @m4g35l4y4r

    yeah I agree with you on that one, would be awesome to see...

  • @m4g35l4y4r agreed most excellent

  • this looks better than the michael bay films =D lol

  • they actually look like transformers.... not those crappy king-sized-erecter-sets-from-h­ell

  • fuck ya they were always real to me too

  • Ditto.

  • After watching this, I can't see how Bay could think these G1 designs wouldn't work. This looks not only FINE to me, but freaking AWESOME. Alas, the public has spoken, and we will never see a movie like this one in theaters.

  • Well the video somehow shows the limitation of G1 aesthetics if it's actually made it in the live action movie making the Bay's TF designs more sense.

  • See, totally subjective, because I feel that this video shows that it CAN be done, and that they look much more 'realistic' than the Bay movie. It's all perspective and opinion.

  • Comment removed

  • You're wrong, I didn't say that G1 designs will work on live action sequences, Bay's design are much more realistic than what appears in this video which is more like a Pixar movie, realistically rendered but with cartoonic/anime proportion.

  • And don't forget that Bay's TF movies are totally different TF storyline and it's no way connected to G1 storyline so it's natural to give the TF bots a new more realistic look rather than reusing the G1 designs which is very typical anime mecha design and obviously borrowed from an old japanese toyline.

  • Very nice one here.

  • the original 1984 movie was better than the michael bay movies

  • omfg the new movies & the old one which was made in 1986 not 1984 are classics. hate it or love it, ive been a fan since th g1 days & i think the new movies are pretty badass. i believe no 1 couldve done transformers better than bay

  • bay did do a good job but the storyline was just ugh. if he redid the old movie with unicron and galvatron, etc, now that would've been sweet

  • yo the transformers series isn't over yet how do u know unicron isn't gonna be in the 3rd one

  • they should use this animation to make a series called g3 thatd be so kick ass and have it based on g1 just cgi though

  • it´s like gundam Style....cool

  • 5/5

  • Awsome

  • no devastr omega u basically desrcibed the g1 characters too but i dont like the new ones alot i like their designs but bay cheated for tgheir robot modes especialls on the autobots like bumblebee how can he be so bulky itheres an engine and about 200 other part the rset is just wats inside the car where people sit bays a cheater

  • Why in the hell didn't Michael Bay stick to these designs? Instead we get a cluttered mess that looks like spare junk parts pasted together rummaging around with a hack director that causes nausea while watching the action sequences. THIS needs to get out to Hollywood and make a reboot of the franchise.

    Don't get me wrong, nice "summer" movie but Bay's versions were NOT the real Transformers we all grew up with. Stick to the original material and source and you'll be fine.

  • Because it's not G1 to begin with , it's a different TF Universe. The new designs in Bay's movies looks more realistic, and much more sentient looking than the too robotic G1 designs.

    And hardcore G1 fans forgot something, they were ALIENS, that's why they designed to be more out-of-this-world compared to the G1designs which just looks like a man made machines.

    If Bay stick to the old designs, the result will be like oil and water(No matter what you do, it won't mix!)

  • The new designs in Bay's movies looks more realistic, and much more sentient looking than the too robotic G1 designs?

    REALISTIC MY ASS!!!! What the fuck are you talking about? There was nothing realistic about those 2 embarrasing movies filled with stupid, cheesy plotholes, racist litterate robots, unrealistic storylines, UNREALISTIC acting, stupid sex shit, etc. Bayformers is an UNREALISTIC movie... so STOP LYING ALRIGHT!?

    -R78

    -r78

  • Well I'm only saying that Bay's bot designs are realistic so they look almost like a real thing, G1 accurate bot designs will never ever worked out in the live action film, this clip only proves that it will only worked out in a full 3D animation film.

    Well the rest like the story, plot, etc. in Bay's films are unrealistic, but interesting.

  • Those things you've mentioned that you're ashamed of, is it almost the same thing as G1? Continuity errors of episodes, misuse of main concept, animation errors, cheesy plotholes, sexual innuendos, etc.

  • I told you NOT TO LIE TO ME BUSTER.

    You know DAMN WELL that G1 didn't COME CLOSE to the stupid, offensive shit that goddamn Bay flick has excessively abused in terms of sex exploitation, stupid plotholes, bland characters...DID I ALSO MENTIONED RACISM? No, because you're too GODDAMNED distracted from listening to the facts while you're sucking at that whore's dixie tities to give a damn. Don't deliberately take this shit out of context...I'm warning you.

    -R78

  • Man, you can't just accept that some or most people love it, It's like you are just trying to force me to hate it and you have no right to do that.

    The movie is not a G1 to begin with and it's a totally different TF story, simple as that.

    I have most of the TF movie figure collections as well as the Classics/Universe.

  • What the heck are you talking about? . Bay's bot designs looked warped, unfinished, and unasthethic! HALF-BAKED! they look like generic Bug-Eyed Monsters. THAT'S NOT REALISTIC!

    You are WRONG. This clip is proof potential that they would work out. I've seen better clips than this. They don't have to be G1 accurate.

    Just make them look like Japanese mechas.

    If you just open your mind and close your ass you would know that. Imagine that.

    Bay Bots? REALISTIC MY ASS INDEED!!!

    -R78

  • Well it's matter of anyone's taste, I do love the G1 bots, I do love Bay's bots, I love both G1 series and Bay's movies as a separate TF universe.

    " Just make them look like Japanese mechas"

    Well that's the point, they don't look like an alien robots as the TF bots were supposed to be(They're ALIENS not from Earth).

  • "Well it's matter of anyone's taste" tastes ain't worth the weight of health if you're not willing to eat the green that will save youre heart.

    You love G1 bots?1st of all.Bay's movies isn't a seperate TFU, it's a mockery & bastarization of an establish series directed by perverts, made for perverts 2nd of all, You love G1 Bots? Not likely. I'm very convinced that you G1 love has been betrayed by your lust for Bay's Trojan Whore with the Dixie Tities. That about sums it all up.

    -R78

  • i dont remember sex in transformers.

  • You don't remember it because there was none in G1 TF, it's all in shadowshinboi06's wet banana dreams. }:)

  • wow dude,

    you're a huge faggot.

  • Don't confuse my tongue for your piggly-wiggly cock from where you squirt loads of 'Lard Sperm' inside of Megan Fox's phoney-baloney, hillbilly cunt between her Dixie shorts.

  • Comment removed

  • Search the word "Transformers Questionable Moments" here in youtube.

  • "Look more realistic" and (paraphrasing here) "looking more like aliens" are really subjective things. I feel opposite that the movie robots look very UN-realistic; however these are fantasy robots, so what's "realistic"? It's a matter of taste and iconicism. Transformers have an iconic look. Stray too far from that look and it's no longer representative of what it originally stood for. The movies might as well have been called the GoBots; it wouldn't have changed a thing. But to each their own.

  • Yeah they are fantasy bots but that's not an excuse to make them not look so realistic to match up in live action sequences.

  • I WOULD have waited an eternity for this. I still will.

  • This is what the movies should have looked like.

  • what software?

  • Damn so nice.

  • OH man that's awesome!!!!!

  • this is awesome for sure but it wouldnt work out for a movie. the fact that megatron, whose should be like 20 feet tall transforms into a pistol? that would be pretty hard to explain.

  • He turned into a tank occasionally, and Galvatron turned into a really f'ing big canon.

  • These guys look better than the new movie. Maybe somebody should email this link to Hollywood.

  • Yea Really! This is how transformers should be!

  • Thats sweet CGI. Realy nice. But for a split second at the start of the CGI bit i thought they were actors in costumes LOL.

  • AMAZING stuff! Now this is what the live/cgi movie SHOULD have been... I don't mind changes to the designs, so long as they are at least close to the characters (Animated gets the 'reimagining' idea right, IMO). I loved seeing this CG version of the classic fight, and think it proves totally that the old designs could easily have worked in a big budget movie instead of a bunch of technical Lego as sidekicks to a bunch of annoying humans.

  • You guys know what the best part is!? There's no Hotrod messing things up, just Badass Optimus and Megatron!

  • This is unbelievably awesome like some other stuff on you tube. People who thought the movie didn't deserve the proud title of The Transformers unite. These true fans making REAL Transformer works of art should have a chance to make a REAL Transformer movie. Promote their stuff on blogs, mail them to your friends, get the world to notice this stuff. This and what it could develop into is what the Transformers deserve : the very best !

  • What bewilders me is, with seemingly so many people hating-on the Michael Bay movie (myself included), why is it so popular?  Same reason shows like Survivor and American Idol are popular?
