This is a re-enactment of a memorable scene from Transformers: The Movie. Call it a dramatic tribute of sorts to one of the Autobots' foremost renowned heroic soldiers... because if you don't love Ultra Magnus there is something WRONG with you.

The music is the Overture from "The Phantom of The Opera" and should help to put his death scene in a new perspective for those of you unconvinced. I'm going to attempt to counter some lame anti-Ultra Magnus blurbs:

Lame argument #1: "He died a wimp, he should have have gone out guns blazing, etc, etc!"

Wrong. The simple truth is his guns were blazing right up until Galvatron was 20 feet in front of him--and firing then wouldn't have done him a bit of good anyway. It's GALVATRON. So he did the noble thing by saving his comrades before pulling out his trusty Matrix and facing Galvatron alone KNOWING that death was very probable. That's called SELFLESS BRAVERY and good leaders usually always possess this trait!

Lame argument #2: "He died too fast, he's weak."

Ummm... no. Galvatron cooked Starscream with a single shot whereas Ultra Magnus took several close-range shots in a row from the Sweeps (all the while still trying to open The Matrix) before falling and exploding into pieces. His unarmed face-off with Galvatron also showed just how much faith he had in his former leader and The Matrix (with the sad irony being that Magnus "died" knowing he couldn't light their darkest hour and Prime must have been mistaken about him). Despite not being the "chosen one" his death was *obviously* a more-than-honorable one and we shan't discuss it any further! Shut up all of you and start getting Magnus-loving tears in your eyes, gawsh!! :P

(P.S....enjoy!) (less info)
