Who would have thought this boxy red and blue robot would become one of the most beloved characters ever?
>>
Has there ever been a Transformers continuity where the trailer has a mind and robot mode of its own, and the name Optimus Prime actually refers to the combination of truck and trailer?
>>
What does he keep in the trailer?
Energon and motor oil?
>>
>>81250767
Roller, a recon bot, gun turrets, and several other weapons.

I'd have to say it's because of what Cullen brought to the table. He patterned Optimus after his big bro, a man who deeply inspired him. And in turn, set something of a precedent for the character from then on.

It's probably the reason why Optimus just doesn't feel like Optimus unless Peter is the one behind the big guy's voice processor.

I've watched all of Prime and then the G1 cartoon. Peter IS Optimus.

Kind of surreal to hear him when he first showed up in the 1980s and then hear him in recent years when his voice has gotten even deeper.
>>
>>81252386

That is the true power of a Prime. Their voice only grows stronger with age!

>>81252205

It's pretty touching. Especially so in Prime, where they dedicated an episode to the brother who had just passed away.
>>

During that scene theres this part where optimus is running down these decepticons. And as a kid i was like 'holy shit theres like a little transformer that lives inside optimus. right in his grill.' And i assumed he was maybe like a prisoner that optimus kept to torture cos he looked scared. You know like optimus would defeat his enemies and consume them and theyd have to fucking live inside him and watch him kill all their friends or some shit. And i just thought thats what that was until years and years and years later (like 15 years later.) I saw transformers the motion picture again and i realized 'oh wait thats just a reflection of one of the fucking guys hes about to run over'
https://youtu.be/P7GeisRaias?t=22s
Seriously watch that moment in the video and you'll see what i fucking mean. I was convinced for years. I mean i saw the movie after it came out at the age of like 8. So its not too ridiculous a conclusion to leap to.

It's very depressing to hear him now given how they have turned his character into shit. Nobody is going to grow up remembering the modern day Optimus Prime as fondly as people remember the original.

>>81250395

Certainly not people who lost their virginity before their 30s

Maybe in the movies he's bad, but Prime and RiD have him portrayed nicely. He's great in combat, but not a fucking psycho like in Bayformers.

I like Movie Prime. The only thing I didn't like him doing was shooting Megatron's face off after he called for a ceasefire.
>>
>>81255247
Jesus christ okay listen....stop harping on fucking michael bay. He doesnt shoot megatrons face off after he calls for a ceasefire.
he rips it off using an axe. It's sentinel prime he blows the brains out execution style as he begs for his life
>>
>>81255247

I just don't get why he suddenly got all bloodthirsty in the second movie and on. First film he was fairly civil in dispatching Cons, then the second and third he's demanding faces like he's making a mask.

the only transformers movie i watched more than once was the first one, which was actually pretty good

I honestly love this movie. It is....so unique.
Nothing makes sense, nothing seems real, it's all just fucked up. Watch any scene and none of the characters act like actual human beings. Theyre just these tooth gnashing warped caricatures like a demented being from another plane of sentience decided to try and emulate what it thought human beings would act like.
It.
Shia lebouff just vascillated emotionally between every possible emotion without any reasoning and for ten minutes of the movie gets super super aggressive. I dont even know what the fuck frances mcdormand is doing in there and the last third of the fucking film is just one giant CGI shit fest with a chinese caricature alien being executed before these two lovely scenes where optimus prime is the most unmerciful fuck in the universe.
The entire movie is like shooting up with a mix of mercury and mescaline and its rather beautiful.

It was also pretty cool how he outright sacrificed a human city to the mercies of the Decepticons to make a point

Which # was this? I only saw the first one, once.

There was one episode of the G1 cartoon where Optimus was possessed, and his three components fought independently... those episodes were very episodic, with different writers and all.

Mostly, a repair bay / artillery unit and Roller, a small, autonomous spy drone.

The third one. DO NOT feel tempted to watch any of the others. The first one was the best and it wasn't even that good.

No they didn't. He's boring in Prime.

say what you want about the movie version of Prime but he's at least getting the opportunity to emote.

RID's slightly better since he has some comical moments.
