What makes Bumblebee a core member of the Autobots is his unwavering optimism and light-heartedness. He manages to remain mentally positive and stable despite what he suffers throughout his life. I mean, this boy spends his life fighting violent wars and losing many friends and mates in these wars, sometimes risking to lose his own life as well, yet he never lets himself be overwhelmed by all this pain and weight, remaining optimistic and completely faithful and confident in the ideals he stands for. It is these traits that make him the perfect partner for Optimus Prime. Partner, not sidekick.
"You let them leak as long as you need to. We're here, and you're safe." For the technically youngest and rudest of the Bees, Animated Bee knows when to be genuinely sweet.
14:19 from an episode, among other stuff going on, Bee is very sensitive about his size. Ratchet: for a little bot you gotta big spark. Bumblebee: no reaction Bulkhead: I was just having a little fun Bumblebee: massive tantrum about the word little 😆☺️
I know they're not in the same continuity, but it feels like there's a progression from Animated Bumblebee to Prime Bumblebee to RID Bumblebee and that's pretty cool.
Anyone who thinks RID sucks, just remember how many times Bumblebee bolstered his team with inspirational quotes just like Optimus. Heck, Bee even talked sense into Prime himself.
"Bee even talked sense into Prime himself" That's because the writers wrote Optimus out of character having him re learn lessons he should have already known from millennia of experience.
My second favorite Autobot was originally Hot Rod. But after seeing the 2018 Bumblebee movie, I can now say that Bumblebee is my new second favorite Autobot!
14:45 Bumblebee: Drift, Grim, Let's roll to the rescue-! w-wait, no, someone's already using that battle cry... MEANWHILE- Heatwave: Heatwave: Someone just used my battle cry- Chase: ?
8:37 bumblebee: knockout we needed that I think if ratchet was there he would either have a deadpan Look a twitchy arctic or throwing up his arms into the air add someone who knows his pain about needed stuff
One thing I noticed about Prime and RID was the VA: Will Friedle. Friedle is most famous for playing Terry McGinnus from Batman Beyond. In that show, Terry took up the mantle of Batman from a retired Bruce Wayne. In RID 2015, Bumblebee takes the position of leader following Optimus’s sacrifice.
I love the cene where Smokescreen and Bumblebee start to talk about beeing a Prime and showing how even Bumblebee is awesome character which other characters can take advice from him!
4:23 i find it weird that I feel so familiar with this version of Bee, even though I really only remember him from this one Nintendo DS Transformers game I played years ago.
Season 1 is garbage but the rest is actually pretty good. They use a lot of common tropes in interesting ways and character developent actually sticks unlike in a lot of similiar shows
My favorite part of RID 2015 was that Bumblebee was the leader. My two reasons why are: 1. It's a nice continuation of his character arc from Prime (From scout to warrior to leader) 2. It was nice to have a series where Optimus wasn't leader (Even when Optimus came back, he made it clear that he wanted to lead alongside Bee, not instead of Bee) It was one of the few things about RID 2015 that I wouldn't mind seeing in another piece of Transformers media (movie, comic, show, etc.)
Me too. They could have lasted one more season ngl. With some of the old characters too. Ultra Magnus, Arcee, Smokescreen and Wheeljack werent brought up, neither were Predaking and Knockout
I do love (TF Movie and Prime, Predacons Rising Movie) Bumblebee! He's soo cute and Badass! Especially Knockout and Barricade, Optimus prime is one of my favorite character.
You know, I don't entirely understand why so many people hate Robots in Disguise. I for one really liked the series. To be honest, I really liked that they changed Starscream's design to be more like his G1 design. I'm sorry, but between his design and most of his scenes in Prime, it was impossible to take him seriously. Who thought it would be a good idea to give him freaking STILETTO HEELS?!
Reason why many people don’t like Rid15 is because it’s basically a downgrade to bumblebee and kinda a spit in the face to Prime. But eh I see that it has its moments but I feel like it does prime a bit dirty as well it can be inconsistent as well…idk maybe I was thrown off cause Rid is a lot more lighthearted than Prime’s dark and mature theme
@@raylenn4444 I like to believe it's the other way around since politics and social justice are serious themes while transformers are trivial to our society
The contrast between childish smartass Bumblebee (animated, g1), confident/perceptive leader Bumblebee (Robots in Disguise), and R2 Bumblebee (Prime) is what makes this video
