WATCH ALONG: Transformers

I'm down for a Transformers (Michael Bay series) Franchise Fridays. I think you would absolutely dig it, Ashleigh. Would be something great to get into after the first of the year maybe.

TL;DR: This was the Transformers movie to watch for Peter Cullen. I know it might seem like a disappointment to Ashleigh for her Peter Cullen tribute to see Prime die in the first 30 minutes of the movie but I really feel as if this was the right call over and of the micheal bay movies. I was only 9 in 1986, turning 10 in November. Prime and all the other Autobots dying was very upsetting to me but it also gave me Rodimus Prime which since it was clear Hot Rod was the new hero somehow made it okay. The Bay movies turned Prime into a pansy who couldn't stand up to Megatron, where this movie he may have died, but he took out 60% of the enemy including Megatron more or less solo. He did indeed have the Touch, he had the Power. In the Bay movies he might at best have herpies.
