The continuation of childhood dreams

When I was young, Transformers seemed to be the biggest dream of many boys. I still remember the first Transformer that my father bought when I was in the fifth grade of elementary school. But when I was a child, although I watched almost all the 98 episodes of Transformers cartoons, I always felt that some plots were missing. Why did Optimus Prime, Ironhide, Ambulance, etc. have already explained "dead" at the beginning of the third season. They How did it die? How was Jingpotian transformed? It turns out that all the answers are in this 1986 Transform the Movie jointly produced by the United States and Japan.

Exciting music, good plot, and exquisite production. This work is actually an "advertising film" made by Hasbro to launch new toys in order to sell hot toys, such as Hot Break, Windy, Spring, Tong Tian Xiao, Hurricane, and Plague. Let old characters sacrifice one after another. In contrast to the child-oriented style of the previous animated series, the war in this movie is very cruel. The characters who can't be killed in more than 60 episodes are sacrificed in less than ten minutes. What is particularly unacceptable is the police car and the ambulance. The management figures in the Autobots were actually killed by small roles like sweepers... As for the jacks and chargers, they didn’t explain them, and only shot a corpse... In addition, they continued the wrong style of cartoons. There are also a lot of plot vulnerabilities. For example, the howling in the robotic dinosaur never appeared on the scene. There were only two Cyclonus during the transformation, and then only one was left. A large number of cartoon characters did not appear at all. For example, horizontal artillery, glider, halberd, space saucer, red alert, crane, tackle, gearbox, skyfire, flying Taibao, machine guard, Megatron, Pathfinder, recklessness, blue thunderbolt, smoke, tires... where are these people? went? ? In addition, the original intention of the last Hasbro has not been realized. The deaths of old characters have made the audience very dissatisfied. The new character creation is not particularly successful... The laboriously designed future models are also very unpleasant.

In general, this movie has successfully portrayed the story of Repo, a typical American-style passionate young man who grew up to become a big man. However, with the development of the plot in the third season, Repo, or it is called a patchwork of heaven. Can't become a qualified leader like Optimus Prime, so in the last episode, under the threat of hating the virus, Optimus Prime resurrected and ended the war.



Finally, we must insist on the domestic film distribution department. When the live-action Transformers movie of Michael Earback was released in 2007, many websites and theater introductions used the plot of this cartoon to introduce the 2007 version of the live-action movie, but they were not in 1986. No changes will be made in the fantasy of 2005.

    This big movie is great, but my favorite Optimus Prime actually died in 25 minutes at the beginning, the fight was very hot, mainly about the succession of the autobot leaders, from Optimus Prime to Tongtianxiao to Tianshi, It's very exciting. The meaning of "Transformers Movie" is to let the old one metabolize the screen and inherit the new generation, but Optimus Prime is still the leader I most recognize.
