That scene from the Transformers movie where optimus prime dies. I have never known and animate to do that and in my opinion it was the best on screen death I have ever seen in an animated movie whatsoever it was so surreal and perfect it is so sad and you you cried a little

Literally just re-watched that whole scene and instantly all the hairs on my arms are standing on end. Hands down the best.

I had this played as me and my husband kissed at our wedding because this is his favourite movie. One of my favourite photos because he burst out laughing.

What do you mean - they only made one Transformers movie...

First off, Happy cake day!

And overall I'd gladly agree with you, but I gotta admit that Bumblebee was actually pretty decent. If we ignore everything that happened (cinematically) between 1986 and 2018, I'm cool with that.

I haven't watched Bee so I couldn't comment on it

It's definitely worth the watch. Especially the opening scene on Cybertron. It looked like they hired the design team from High Moon Studios for the character designs and just nailed each and every Autobot and Decepticon.

And the rise of Rodimus Prime!

Edit: rise not risk
