Transformers : The Movie - 3 - Death Of Optimus Prime

[ViscaBarcaInter]

I remember this shit like it happened yesterday. Devastated wasn't the word.

One of the few things Bayformers got right was Optimus, the unfailing heroism and unshakeable morality of the character.

[jinxie712]

Optimus basically told Magnus he just being a delivery boy until the real leader comes along. He was just the only other Autobot that had the chest room to hold the Matrix.

[gweenenvy]

Damn this movie had balls!

[IRONHIDE666FUL]

i hate hot rod......but i love rodimus prime!

[Fanik10]

RIP Optimus Prime ( Pre 4,000,000 B.C.-2005)

[MECHASWORLD2020]

@Fanik10 9,000,000 B.C. actually

[Fanik10]

I'm just a soldier, I'm not worthy

[dylan697]

perceptor:i fear the wounds are fatal....

(everyone looks sad)

hotrod: totally not my fault by the way

[TangosGetPWNED]

@dylan697 I think thats what he'd say in Transformers: Armada

[kluang1]

Optimus Prime: Now the Matrix shall be pass......

Open chest

Daniel look at it

Daniel: You put the matrix in a coconut?

[moomoomilkism]

I fear his wounds are fatal....

[Durs2220]

"out of the way Hotrod"

[Durs2220]

PRIME YOU CAN'T DIE! Stupid Hotrod ... It's all your fault!

[jonnytolley1]

If only we could see a "death of Michael Bay's career" scene..

[gc3k]

2:40 if this part doesnt get to you, you dont have a pulse

[johnnytosho]

I am glad there are fans put there that recognize this yhos os the original the others are just second best

[djfakt]

This is the REAL Transformers movie...And any REAL fan of Transformers knows this is true.

I haven't, nor will I, watched the live-action trash...

[ThauN4SceNe1]

Do... not.. greive me...

[AthenasXAlistar]

HE DIED FOR OUR SINS, OH HOLY OPTIMUS PRIME!!!!!

[emiliosanchezponce]

Fuck Bambi's mom death!! OPtimus Prime's death is what I call something really SAD :(

[TimeForFunGuy]

@emiliosanchezponce

fuck simba's dad's death too!

[dcspartan117]

@TimeForFunGuy D Simba`s dad never returned prime did

[figment1988]

@emiliosanchezponce this even surpasses both Mufasa's death in Lion King, and when Andy gives the toys away (including Woody) in Toy Story 3 as an emotional moment.

[spidermanrox1000]

would people stop crying he came back in season three then died again he was brought back to life again and then he dies again fuck

[Wyrmwould]

This was a harsh lesson to learn at a very young age. Everyone dies eventually, even a powerful leader like Optimus Prime. It still makes me emotional all these years later.

[TheCoolchris99]

when i watched the death of Optimus scene i nearly cried cause its so sad thats when i first watch this movie when i was like 13 and im 17 now and it still gets to me.

[CommanderThunderush]

I think of this any time something good in my life is killed. Toonami, Megaman Legends 3, Viewtiful Joe, MTV, and the wrath of a Michael Bay film. If you sympathize with me, you were born in a time of happiness. May the Matrix always be with you, my friends.

[AlmightyPearHater]

Do not grieve... Soon, I shall be one with the Matrix... <3

[clhound]

i fear the wounds are fatal :(

[theshadowbolt1111]

but prime you cant die

[TimeForFunGuy]

Fuck you Megatron!!! and Hot Rod!!

[aceholepictures]

Prime had Megatron covered. If that punk kid Hot Rod hadn't have gotten involved everything would've been fine. Though we still would have lost Ironhide.

[Limpurtikles]

How are you supposed to get someone to care about the "death" of a fictional, non-existing robotic character?

Like this!

[DH12C]

Do not grieve. Soon, I shall be one with the Matrix........

[kenseiden88]

my father!!!!! Optimus prime.

[SonicTheHedgehog17]

2:26 - tears falling...

[PapillionDAmour05]

one of the saddest movie scenes..ever

[boomer061981]

to all are one !

[THETAILSDOLLISREAL]

does anyone else think that the music at 1:25 sounds like Final Fantasy?

[DzonatanGavert]

@THETAILSDOLLISREAL

It really does...

[apexpredacon13]

OP: Do not grieve. Soon, I shall be one with the Matrix.

HR: Prime...

OP: Ultra Magnus, it is to you, old friend, I shall pass the Matrix of Leadership as it was passed to me.

UM: But Prime, I'm just a soldier, I.... I'm not worthy.

OP: Nor was I, but one day an Autobot shall rise from our ranks, and use the power of the matrix to light our darkest hour....... Until the day til' all are one.

[Pwnzjoomom]

I remember watching this on the big screen, and i swear the whole cinema looked at me when I started crying so loudly lol.

[soze831]

i was 7 when i first saw this and couldnt stop crying!

[metaltigeruk]

@soze831 So did i my Mum couldn't stop laughing that i was crying over a cartoon.

[docrichy]

michael bay took all this, and raped it.

[acekoh13]

The first time I saw Optimus Prime die is when I watched Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen.....

[nate51778]

Optimus was my favorite Transformer. I was only eight years old when the movie came out, but I still I didn't want my friends to see me crying during this scene, so I pretended I had to go to the bathroom. lol

[WecanWinJesse]

I played this and dubbed it over Vegeta conversing with Goku before he died its also sad yo!!!!

[Ebb1993isgreat]

R.I.P. Optimus Prime :'(

[Malahov89]

One of the sadest song and moment in movies ever in my opinion, death of Optimus.When i was a child ;D

Still in my head :)

[RafaleC77th]

@Malahov89 I hear ya there. Was my hero. Watchin him die on that big screen was hard. Fuk was that a hard one to watch. Remember it like yesterday. Ruined that month for me. Took me awhile to watch Transformers again after that. I didnt even trust my toy decepticon, Thrust for abit. Learned to respect the Decepticons firepower too.

[Non0Sequitur]

so sad, and yet there is a hope for the future in it.

[Dantedestroyah]

Trully the saddest moment in transformers history.

[aaronthelightbearer]

One shall stand, one shall fall.

[qwertyuiop123456168]

i bet everyone left the theater after he died

[bdt48223]

@nicholascooney Do not grieve. Soon I shall be one with the matrix...

[superkrex]

Yes i'm going to admit it....When i watched it I cried.....

[mojovie]

@superkrex Other people cried too. We all love Optimus Prime!

[PeachWookiee]

This track makes me sad... It was a good death scene. Nevertheless, I was glad when Prime was resurrected. It was a few years before I could hear "The Touch" and this without getting misty-eyed.

[TheLegoking99]

d'aww, i remember whne prime died....i cried.

[JasperCorp]

@TheLegoking99 who didnt atleast ont the inside

[007ZackAttack]

the saddest three mins in the history of transformers

[007ZackAttack]

why why did they have to make op die,megatron shall fall!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[007ZackAttack]

such a touching song to all transformer fans

[HeadmasterAutobot]

In terms of context, this may be the saddest song ever composed.

[megatron7ful]

this movie was good but bad cuz optimus died

[darthwinsor]

RIP optimus, even though you come back in like 5 years

[zordon75]

@darthwinsor those 5 years turns out to be the longest time Optimus has been dead

[gaiusscipio]

The music reminds me a little of Blade Runner and the 1st Final Fantasy

[menslady125]

Optimus, no......*sniff* We love you.

*growls* Fellow Transformers fans, to me! Kill Megatron! Kill his minions! I don't care how you do it, but KILL THEM!

[DaibloDBZ]

One of the very few times I cried over a movie

and it was over a Cartoon Robot no less...

2:29 - 2:40 Just gets to me...

[SirKobrias]

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! optimus at 2:40

[xXFalcon99Xx]

the matrix will light our darkest hour... 2012

[shadowninja4]

OP: Ultra Magnus! It is to you, old friend, I shall pass the matrix as it was passed to me ....

UM: Prime, I'm just a soldier. I'm not worthy.

OP: Nor was I, but one day, an Autobot shall rise from our ranks and use the powers of the Matrix to light our darkest hour.

[drewtonta]

The Matrix just lit my hour... by finding this gem. I cant believe my luck in finding the whole Original T.F (the movie) soundtrack

[nickolai71]

This will play at my funeral. Except for the shiny happy Hot-Rod-picks-up-the-Matrixy part.

[Major233179]

Defenitly the darkest hour!

WHERES THE MATRIX?!

and hot rod shold died and goe to grimlocks ass hell!

[2213blaise]

rot in hell hot rod !

[robtheguru]

Optimus Prime dying is like having your had removed from your chest with a fucking ladel! Truely the darkest of childhood memories!

[UnsereLuftwaffe]

This scene was one of my childhood's darkest hours.

[art11art12]

yah ....it was the first time a movie made me cry.

[MajorasFlask]

would you be willing to bet a waffle topped with syrup on that claim?

[NIN8540]

But the matrix will light your darkest hour.

[Dynames007]

every time i hear this song it makes me want to cry :(

[MajorasFlask]

but prime, i'm, i'm just a soldier. I - I'm not worthy -,-

[cybertaylor]

YOU'LL BE THE LEADER AND YOU'LL LIKE IT

[th3m4jor]

Nor...nor was I....

[qwertyuiop123456168]

One day an autobot shall rise from our ranks and use the power of the matrix to light our darkest hour....

[AutobotsInferior]

Until that day :Til' all...are.....o...n...e...

[adm051494]

they did a wonderful job doing this piece. i cry everytime i listen to this!!

[IGotThisGeorgeLopez1]

soon i'll shall become with the matrix

[plasticnapoleon22]

so beautiful, yet so bleak, absolutely perfect, a true work of genious

Vince DiCola, I thank you

[Shockerbomb]

this would be good for the scene in the transformers 2 where optimus is defeated by megatron

[art11art12]

dude....anything in this movie is better than Transformers 2.

[SirKobrias]

@art11art12 i like all the movies equally. the awesome special FX in the new movies and all them characters dying in the original evens it out.

[lilwhiteboi339]

I wish there were some remixes of this.
