Hence why Orion and the others aren't wearing it.

Perhaps the Decepticon mark in this film is being used in the same vein - a mark designed to out one as a traitor to Cybertron (like Megatronus was to the Primes), which Megatron decides to embrace as he forms his Decepticon army.

Perhaps seeing the body of Megatronus on the cave will be the catalyst that makes him see it as more of a symbol than a punishment.

One thought that came to me regarding their lack of t-cogs is that it might be some form of empurata. What better way to show to the world that they are lower class than visual scarring them, as in showing all that they have no t-cog, and at what better way to remind the victim where they belong but to remove their ability to transform. I could be completely wrong, but this is the conclusion I draw from what I've seen. Only time will tell if I'm right or wrong.

@fennekin1750

Ай бұрын

Well, considering the fact that our main characters are very unfamiliar with T-Cogs, & therefore don't know how to transform, I feel like its more of some sort of Rite of Passage type thing; everyone else or at least most of everyone else already has one. & miners/lower class also aren't allowed to have one to keep workers in check. & I'm thinking Orion (& maybe Elita, too) is actually from higher class*, but does something _deemed_ wrong, which somehow involved Megs/D-16, so as punishment, hes sent to the mines. This is why D-16 doesn't what to talk to Orion & is pretty salty in the beginning of the trailer. Maybe Orion is still a librarian/data clerk/archivist, like in TFP? *If so, this could be why Orion is overall more open(??) regarding the surface, when Megs/D-16 isn't, because hes afraid of what could happen if he gets into trouble, considering hes been in the mines his entire life. I'm also thinking that lower class are all given number names, hence why Megs & Badassitron are known as D-16 & B-127, respectively. Maybe when Orion (& maybe Elita, too) are sent to the mines, they are assigned number names, too, but they reject them, still preferring their "normal" names. D-16 & B-127 don't reject their number names because they were assigned to them at birth. Badassitron is probably trying to hide his pain/misery with a positive & fun outlook; because of this & what I said above, is why he is trying to change his name/thinking of nicknames, such as Badassitron.

@vladyvhv9579

Ай бұрын

To be a bit of Shockwave for a moment... It's the most logical conclusion. Why would they have visible sockets for T-Cogs, if they're not meant to have T-Cogs? If you're creating a mechanical worker class that's never meant to have them, then you'd engineer them to not have the sockets. "It doesn't matter if you find/steal a T-Cog because you've got nowhere to put it". Whereas, if the social class is more about robbing them of a power they've got at the beginning, then yeah. "You're a worker bot, your T-Cog has been removed. You're not likely to ever get it back. Unless you prove useful enough, maybe." would likely be the reality of how they're indoctrinated. Illusion of some possible upward mobility, even if the actual upward mobility is impossible. Motivation to work harder and harder, and be that dedicated worker for the theoretical chance to earn back that T-Cog. And Orion and D-16 see through that lie... Sort of like how kids get told IRL all the time that if they work hard enough, they can be whatever they want. But the harsh reality is that the system keeps people down, and most people don't realize that until they're stuck in a position of little power to do anything about it. So, possible social commentary added to the goofy fun movie.

Besides the greatness of BBM & ROTB, I do agree.

Very minor detail that I find kind of interesting is that the Decepticon insignia we see on D-16's shoulder (8:27), as well as The Fallen's face (7:44) are very close to the classic G1 Decepticon insignia, with triangular eyes, meanwhile the Decepticon brand we see during Megatron's final evolution into villainy at 10:50 bears the live action movie design with 4-pointed trapezoidal eyes.

Not being allowed to live on the beautiful planetary surface reminds me a lot of the "outworlders" in the TransTech continuity, since the majority of the so-called "lowtechs" is also confined to the "Offworlder Zone" in the lower levels of Axiom Nexus's urban areas, basically in an "underground existence", too 🤔

I enjoyed this very much! Its nice to have videos about this trailer that aren't just negatively condemning the film before it's even been seen. And even outside of that, this was a really fun video, highlighting the connections to greater transformers lore! I didn't even know Steve was gonna be in thos movie! :D

Thank you for this video breakdown! I don't like calling people 'fake fans' but seeing so many people dog pile on the trailer of this movie that clearly don't realize that this movie is heavily pulling from the established lore, with of course some changes, was kinda surprising. I can understand people that are put off by the comedic tone (I am not, I love it so far) and that is a fair criticism that should be taken seriously, but people mad because 'Why are they ruining Transformers! Why did they make Optimus Prime and Megatron friends! Why does Optimus Prime look like that!?' is such a downer for what should be excitement for getting more Transformers! Oh and also people being upset they got regular actors instead of voice actors are right to be upset, don't get me wrong, they sound good so far, but there are so many talented VA's out there, they shouldn't have to shell out all this money to get a named attached to it, hire actual working VA's.

I think that D16 having the Decepticon symbol on his arm doesn't mean that they already exist, but is used as a symbol of shame for certain Cybertronians which he'll then later on turn it into a symbol of rebellion and freedom.

The basics on a Sunday? What a treat. 😊

I really appreciate this detailed breakdown. Fantastic work! ✨💎✨

It's actually gonna be a great movie for several reasons: 1. Most of the ideas from other shows, games, and comics coming into one on the big screens 2. For once in a Transformers movie, no human characters, since they get more attention than their species name 3. A movie about pre-war cybertron and it's golden age 4. Optimus Prime and Megatron's past lives showing up in the big screens And lastly, because the Great War will probably happen soon, leading to the starting point of how, when, and why the war started (and hopefully not making it's way to earth yer until the second movie)

Wasn't too keen on the trailer but after a few views. At the film's core is friendship the highs and lows. Which will ethier lead to them parting ways or the beginning of the tension between the two. Great breakdown of the trailer love all the facts and Easter eggs you point out. Very much appreciated by myself and is so enjoyable to watch. Especially when I only came across Saturday today. 😊

That is exactly what I saw in the trailer. And it was awesome that u broke it down even more. I cannot wait to see it!

Being 40 yo myself, being a huge fan since I was 3, I am sooooo hyped about TF ONE. I am literally moving in small jumps. It seems that finally an old franchise is being treated with the proper comedic seriousness and respect it deserves. Especially after the disappointment we keep on getting by many other franchises, no need to mention them here, you know of what I speak. Thank you Chris for everything, keep up the good work!

I love how the general lore of transformers is constantly evolving by incorporating elements from not only other installments, but real life such as D-16!😀❤

I've seen people questioning about why there's plant life on the surface. If we assume the Quintessons have invaded, perhaps this plant life is something they brought with them. Perhaps they're trying to terraform the surface... What we see from that side looks more organic with mechanical augments. So, perhaps they need this as a basis of food source? Also, that explains further the "don't go to the surface" thing. "Don't mess with the Quintessons' gardening", but less overtly said.

So cool. Thank you for your insight into this. I'm glad that you took the time to look into this.

Seeing as they studiously avoid it being said in the trailer, my tinfoil hat theory has become that they might not say "Dee Sixteen" but like Bee is "Bee One Twenty-Seven" proto-Megs may be "Dee One Six", or "Dee-One" for short, which isn't far off G1 Orion's best mate's name, and they have cheekily smooshed Megs into Dion to make an Anakin/Vader riff! I'll buy a Lottery ticket if I'm actually right about that!

The idea of turning Megatron into a version of Dion and a best friend of Optimus is going to make this hurt more if it is accurate. 😢

It’s likely that the new transformers one movie is not only an origin story but the movie establish that it takes place in its own universe, unconnected to any previous continuity

The plant life appearing on the surface reminds me of how Beast Machines ended. Kinda hoping that'll referenced in the movie

I feel like the Decepticon symbol on D-16's arm has a "tattoo" sort of vibe. Perhaps a "prison" tattoo after they've been locked up for a spell?

Chris analyzing a trailer? This is unexpected...yet, very welcome

Huh... I missed the dead Primes when I first watched the trailer. That is... even more interesting. Makes me wonder if that's part of why they seem to be super-charged compared to others. Not just have T-Cogs, but having parts from the Primes. Sort of like what happened to Optimus and Megatron in S3 of Beast Wars.

I'm glad to see this movie taking points from across the Aligned Continuity.

This is a very nice coverage of the trailer and how it links to transformers cannon. I’ve seen other videos that don’t do that and mostly feature complaints about how “Optimus Prime” doesn’t have Peter Cullen’s voice etc, not realising that it is actually Orion Pax in the beginning and perhaps most of the movie.

2:08 yeah! I noticed that too!

I have a great feeling about this one

originally i had doubts about this film being promising, but now you pointed out these easter eggs i think ill be sure to give it a watch

Thank you for making this. It’s needed so much atm as an in depth background to the history and education for alignment with this film. I hope this we’ll have many more now in anticipation for this first of the trilogy!

I think you hit it right on the head! I bet we see D16 and Orion Pax come together to fight against the Quintesson and then at the end they will become Megatron and Optimus prime setting up for the second movie! I think the trailer showed a majority of the humor, and the actual movie will probably be a lot more filled and plot driven!

Absolutely loved the video mate. I’ve always loved the basics as well, but this makes a nice change, especially as you’re so knowledgeable. I loved the trailer already, but this makes me love it more. To see such deep references to old lore makes me hopeful these writers know their stuff as well

A great breakdown. Finding why Megatron was called D-16 is a great detail I never would have guessed. I'm onboard with this movie and hope it is good. I've long accepted that Transformers will keep rebooting, it just shows how great the base premise is. So as long as the new versions are fun and worthwhile I'll be backing them. The G1 cartoon will always hold my heart but I'm always willing to enjoy the new stuff.

Your video has made me even more excited for this film, and I was already pretty hyped. This is a great breakdown, nice work!

Great breakdown! I will love to see more of this for upcoming trailers!

Fantastic video!!!! You should do breakdowns for any future Transformers movies! Well done

Great breakdown video the knowledge you possess of transformers history and behind the scenes stuff is incredible sir thanks for sharing

What a breakdown! Amazing details

I have to say thank you for making this video. You helped alleviate some concerns that I had with the trailer.

A bit of a long shot theory but I think D-16 could be the last of The Fallen troops from his fight with the other Primes. He and the Prime's thought for the universe (The Fallen wanting to rule it and the Prime's fighting against his tyranny), while The Fallen was defeated (either dead or banished to a prison like state/dimension) his was scattered and the remaining Autobots were too exhausted to fight against The Quintesson invasion. And I think D-16 is a late activated Protoform bot from The Fallen's amy. And throughout the flim, he'll be a walking red flag as his original design begins to awaken from the T-Cog being placed in him with his true nature being revealed.

Great Stuff, as always!

I'm definitely looking forward to this movie. We so often _hear_ of Megs and Prime having been friends, but now we actually get to _see_ what happened.

When B-127 is chopping things up at the end of the trailer, just as he slices off the top of a chair, a character resembling Ironhide can be seen on the control desk to the right. It would be really cool if we get a closer look at this character in the movie and it does turn out to be Ironhide. It is also possible that he will help the protagonists and earn himself a spot in the Autobots towards the end of the movie.

Considering this is the same team behind 2011's Rango and it appears to take place before Earthspark given the art direction and Bee's personality in that show as someone who has simmered down quite a lot, this very feels much like a fake-out trailer.

Wow, so many connections and drawbacks. It's amazing how all of the little details are combining to make for a good and concise Transformers film. Something almost no other Transformers movie before could do save for a few.

I’m still not on board with the new voices, to give credit Hemsworth does do a good job matching the cadence of Cullen, but I would’ve just preferred getting Peter Cullen & Frank Welker back.

I love the energon miner version where he becomes a noble hero (which gives reason to why his older troops are so loyal) and then becomes a corrupted tyrant monster because of all he has lost and the pyrrhic nature of the victory he ultimately seeks

I really enjoyed your breakdown of the trailer. I wouldn't mind more videos like this in the future.

I've seen a lot of complaints that the trailer makes the film seem like a 'buddy' film that's going to be light on tone and a bit 'kiddy'. I think there are enough hints in the trailer that there's a darkness within the story. Obviously the Quintesson's invasion but also the scene where Megatron is kneeling at the corpse of Megatronus, almost like that's the beginning of his descent, or possibly the final stage of his descent, into becoming Megatron. I'm quite excited to be getting a film that is purely Transformers and doesn't contain any humans. EDIT: I also get Goldbug vibes from B's battle mask.

Gran video como siempre 🤩🤗😎! Este es el mejor análisis del tráiler que he visto 🤩🤗😎!!!

Man I was looking forward to this and the trailer really surprised me. Not what I was initially expecting but I'm optimistic pun intended. Great video as always! You definitely are one of the best TF channels out there!

This was a surprise

Dude, this is great. Thank you!
