One of the online extras that was available with the Circuit City DVD release of the 2007 Transformers movie. This one shows various test cycles and animatics of the CGI models and sequences.
After 13 long years, this movie still has some of the best CGI I have ever seen. You can tell this film took time to make and each character model got plenty of love. Nowadays, films are rushed and the visuals suffer terribly. Take me back man.
VNY D devastator was in their for comic relief and the fallens potential was wasted ( blame bay, but I still love transformers) but the movie wasn’t bad.
Micheal Harrison Michael Bay’s use of characters is criminal They destroyed computers and wasted so much money on devastator , which is why I understand why he was in the movie for like 5 minutes total
Because they look like absolute shit. I'll just stare at the underside of a car if I want to see some unidentifiable gears smashing into each other. Every action seen barely even looks like anything
@@somebodyelse522 yeah, but the designs look WAY TOO complex and are too over detailed that it's very difficult to draw. The bumblebee movie designs looked much simpler and practically looks more realistic there imo. Simple designs are always better.
People slag this movie off but I personally love it, the animation and 3D was really ground breaking back then, even using a lot of practical effects in some areas.
You're welcome. :) Especially since it's probably not available online any more now that Circuit City's gone out of business, so I didn't want it to get lost.
0:22 This cut scene is used in Transformers the game.. you can even see the red SUVs from the game there! 0:34 that is bee fighting an evil version of him.. the evil version is in the game files of transformers the game and can be fully enabled.. the evil version is cooler then normal bee..
Man Barricade could’ve been given more battle scenes in the movie but instead he’s only in the 1st fight where he and bumblebee tumbles around in the background doing god know what to each other and that’s it.
I love this movie to death. The amount of work that went into the visual effects and camera work is remarkable. But I have one question... okay, many questions but this one in particular. Why wasn't this 1:41 in the movie!? I would've loved to see Bee and Barricade have one last fist off! 😔
The bay films may have their huge flaws, but they animated the transformers beautifully for sure and it definitely took a fair bit of effort to do it at the time I’m sure.
0:13 “my name is Optimus Prime, I have just enrolled in my dream high school, but due to my laziness I forgot to activate my alarm and I’m going to be late for the opening ceremony! EEEP!”
Damn so Barricade was supposed to be in the final battle ... I just don’t understand Michael Bay at all with his use of characters Like Barricade is never fully established in any of the films because he goes MIA at some point for whatever reason And don’t even get my started on Jolt and Dino and all the decepticons in TF5
@@ELEKTRO_OfficialOh yea that, thst only seems like he noticr ad really over parody it in transformers 4 and 5 where explosion hape for no reason or just comedy parody without propr reason like the transformers not using missiles for it to happen.
Ian Cruz Not really, several toylines were being released even before the movie and third party makers were already making better more expensive versions of it. There were cartoons and games (But the early 3D animated ones were a bit yeah, still iconic though). I do agree though that Michael Bay made it easier for Transformers to introduce itself to more people and connecting it with the mainstream.
Bumblebee fighting a red version of himself? Stinger foreshadowing. Also that early Blackout was clearly from when he was originally gonna be Soundwave.
Here after watching TF:One trailer and feeling shitty that the days of Transformers aiming to be visual blockbuster thrillers are over and now are just like any other average franchise
Then let's both see what happens. I'm placing a bet, if this movie cannot make up the financial and critical success that the franchise has gotten for the past 8-10 years then I proven my point that they don't know how to stop making movies that hurt themselves already. If however it proves to be worthy and can make up everything, you were right all along.
@@wubbzydoesstuff853 Cliffjumper in the Bayverse is the exact replica of bumblebee's '07 Camaro version(like this video and the official toy)stinger is same as the 2014 Camaro version.
@@rishav-2749 actually, there are two figures of cliffjumper from the first film, both are the exact same as the bumblebee toys, just with a red paint job- one is in the legends class and the other in the deluxe class.
Feel like I'm watching one of those early 2000 cartoons that'd you'd catch on Toonami. You know the ones, where the CGI was stiff, unorganic amd still in its early stages. Think Reboot, or Code Lyoko.
