The Transformers: The Movie	comment	Spoilers for this film, as well as all preceding seasons of The Transformers, will be left unmarked. You Have Been Warned!Beyond Good. Beyond Evil. Beyond Your Wildest Imagination.The Transformers: The Movie is a 1986 animated film and the first film in the Transformers franchise, co-produced and directed by Nelson Shin and written by Ron Friedman. It is rooted in the Generation One plot centered on the original animated TV series and associated comics from the mid-1980s, and spawned major continuity changes in that timeline, including major series plot changes. It did not have as big of an impact on the comics, since the additional space-based elements were largely inspired by ideas from the comics that had not made their way into the series, which up until then had been a relatively simple children's TV show.The plot of the film takes us 20 Minutes into the Future to the far-off Year 2005, where the battle between Autobots and Decepticons has moved back to the mechanical world of Cybertron, presumably thanks to the humans apparently wising up and adopting Autobot technology in the interim, allowing regular space travel back and forth to the Transformers' home planet.The animated film introduces, for the first time, the biggest bad in the Transformers multiverse, Unicron (voiced by Orson Welles in his final film), who is en-route to gobbling up Cybertron after stopping off for a snack on the way. In the course of battling him and the Decepticons, a lot of Generation One robots die to make room for a new line-up, traumatizing many youngsters who had gotten used to the lack of permanent death in the TV series.The TV series' voice cast all return here, including Peter Cullen and Frank Welker as Optimus Prime and Megatron respectively; the film also stars Eric Idle as Wreck-Gar, Judd Nelson as Hot Rod, Leonard Nimoy as Galvatron, Robert Stack as Ultra Magnus, Lionel Stander as Kup and John Moschitta as Blurr.Shout! Factory now has the home media rights to the film and released it on DVD and Blu-ray on September 13, 2016, in time for the movie's 30th anniversary.(Note: This is about the Generation One original animated film. For the live-action films, see Film.Transformers Film Series.)Spoiler notice: There are unmarked spoilers in this article.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_143939c1	type	Trailers Always Spoil
The Transformers: The Movie / int_143939c1	comment	Trailers Always Spoil: The original trailer proudly boasts, "The final confrontation between Optimus Prime and Megatron." (Of course, given the initial reaction to said confrontation, fans assuredly thought it would play out far differently.) Commercials for the movie had the narrator say "Does Prime die?" over footage of Optimus getting blasted, followed by Megatron's line: "It's over, Prime!" Some viewers may have thought "Like You Would Really Do It",invoked but... The commercials also showed Unicron starting his transformation, with the narrator saying "What is the secret of the monster planet?". Bad enough he's shown transforming at all, but the fact it shows his hands emerging completely gives away the fact that the planet has a robot mode. Admittedly, given the nature of the movie, it's blatantly obvious that the planet would eventually transform, but if you didn't show his hands, you could get away with viewers wondering if maybe it would just be something like a battle station mode. At least they didn't actually show him fully transformed.

Starscream apparently wins, but then Galvatron takes the job by showing up and atomizing him with a single blast. The writers, when asked, explained that Starscream "won" by hiding quietly in a corner while all the other Decepticons fought, then shot the exhausted actual winner in the back. This also appears to be the way of the Sharkticons. When it becomes clear they can't beat the Dinobots, they relent, and obey Grimlock instead of the Quintesson magistrate.

The final movie shows them shooting rope-like lasers, cutting to Ultra Magnus being gunned down and exploding into pieces when he falls. The (original) comic adaptation depicts the storyboarded drawn-and-quartered scene. That said, the film does have plenty of these. Prowl and Ironhide in particular stand out, as the former's death is shown in great detail and the latter is straight-up executed.

The resurgence of Transformers popularity in the 1990s helped renew interest in both Vince DiCola and Stan Bush. Both have publicly expressed gratitude to the fans' support and make regular appearances at Transformers conventions. Lion is best known for the movie's theme; though they signed with Scotti Brothers soon after its release, they soon faded into obscurity. And you won't believe where "The Touch" showed up after that...

While Megatron himself doesn't quite qualify (he still fuctions, after all), several dead Decepticons are resurrected as Galvatron's allies. Ultra Magnus is shot to hell and eventually explodes into pieces. He's simply rebuilt from his scattered parts some time later.

It first plays during Optimus' fight with Megatron in the beginning of the film and plays again during Rodimus Prime's fight with Galvatron near the end of the film. Hot Rod jumps Megatron, but is easily overpowered and a tragedy (Optimus' death) ensues due to his failure. At the end of the film, both characters, now upgraded to Rodimus Prime and Galvatron, fight again, and this time it is Galvatron who is easily and utterly defeated, and Rodimus succeeds in preventing a tragedy - destroying Unicron and saving the entire planet. The film begins with a sequence of Unicron floating in space having successfully devoured Lithone, which leads into the opening titles. The film ends with the severed head of a defeated Unicron floating helplessly in space as the end credits roll. To top it off, title sequences are set to the band Lion's Cover of the Transformers theme.

Galvatron isn't happy by his new predicament and later attempts to use the Matrix to make Unicron his slave. It ends poorly for him.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_6682d6e4	type	Dying Moment of Awesome
The Transformers: The Movie / int_6682d6e4	comment	Dying Moment of Awesome: Optimus Prime's continuous deaths in every Transformers continuity begins here. After landing on Earth as the Decepticons are laying siege to Autobot City, he utters eight words that sets up what is going to be his most epic outing in Generation One. At which point Prime plows through three or four Decepticons and comes under fire from a host of others. He launches himself into the air and takes them all out with his rifle, and then confronts Megatron, leading to another of his classic lines, as well as a classic exchange with Megs himself. Cue Prime and Megatron having a knock-down drag-out fight where they're throwing everything they have into it because they know it's their final confrontation no matter what. One way or another, this is it. The fight isn't entirely shown on screen, but given what they do show us, this is the most brutal they have ever been in the G1 cartoon continuity, especially given the way we see how badly mangled and damaged they are by the fight's end. Prime ultimately wins, and dies shortly afterwards. What makes this truly badass is that in defeating Megatron, Optimus singlehandedly repels the entire Decepticon invasion of Autobot City. Stan Bush's now cult classic song "The Touch" plays throughout the entire sequence, which just adds to the entire thing. Many fans who've seen the film can't hear this song without thinking of this scene.

(Possibly he was hoping Galvatron and the Matrix would go down the pipe to his digestive system, and forgot that Decepticons can fly, but still pretty dim.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_77b03c0a	comment	Remember the New Guy?: Ultra Magnus is Optimus Prime's old friend, who was never seen or mentioned before. Kup comes off this way too, considering he's supposed to be such an "old-timer." This may be a Justified Trope, as the show does state that several Transformers did go off-planet over the course of the nine-odd million year war that was going on between Autobots and Decepticons prior to the pilot episode of the series and at least one such Autobot was shown during season 2 and an entire planet full of them in Season 3, so it is possible that Magnus and Kup were among those who were elsewhere in space fighting other campaigns during the war before being called to Earth. Conversely, they could also be among those Autobots who remained on Cybertron to try to hold down the fort when the Ark launched, working independently of other groups, such as Elita One's female Autobots. It's also 20 years in universe between B.O.T. (the final episode of the 80s era setting) and the movie which gives plenty of time for newer characters to arrive and integrate into the cast.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_7c4f6612	comment	Comic-Book Adaptation: Was adapted into comic form twice: The Transformers (Marvel) adapted the film to a three-issue miniseries that was based on a non-final draftnote The major differences are that Unicron absorbs planets with some kind of "mist" rather than physically chowing down, Unicron does not give the Decepticons a ship, so Cyclonus is always Galvatron's transportation, even for interplanetary journeys, Grimlock is with Kup and Hot Rod on Quintessa, rather than with the other Dinobots, Ultra Magnus is not shot to pieces, but drawn and quartered (this is still partly in the film, as in the shot of the Sweeps approaching, they shoot long, constant "beams" at Magnus to "lasso" him with, but when the camera switches to him, they are now short "bolts" that only blast him apart), and the Junkions don't board a ship to fly to Unicron, the planet of Junk is their ship, popping out massive engines to get them going (again, a part of this is still in there - Eric Idle's dialogue as Wreck-Gar states "New improved Junkion planet" rather than "ship"). Perceptor's Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness is also more of a Running Gag, though the films' events were only canon to the UK version of the comic book. In 2006, IDW Publishing would publish a four-part miniseries adaptation of the final version of the film (with some minor changes) in honor of the film's 20th anniversary, which was titled Transformers: The Animated Movie to avoid confusion with the live-action Michael Bay movie.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_7ea2a915	comment	Animation Bump: The film easily contains the highest quality of animation out of the entire G1 series courtesy of Toei Animation. In fact, the animation is so high quality that it was reused for the commercial for Transformers: Armada Unicron 17 years later, and the scenes from the movie were better looking than the actual footage of Unicron from Armada. Within the movie itself, the opening scene of Unicron destroying Lithone, Unicron's transformation, Starscream's death, and the final battle of Optimus Prime and Megatron are particular highlights. One reason this bump occurred was the $6,000,000 budget (The equivalent budget for three episodes being closer to $750,000 - $1,000,000) - compared to the usual Japanese prices of making anime movies, the budget was absolutely astronomical, allowing some of the greatest mecha animators to be recruited during production*Rather than the usual animators, including Toei's regular contractors Sei Young, Nakamura Productions or Ashi Productions, as they were still doing the TV show. Toei pulled animators from studios they worked with on their other films — Madhouse, Sunrise, Artland, Bebow, Magic Bus, Animal Ya, and Studio Dub — instead. Indeed, the Movie stands as an absolutely exceptional piece of mecha animation in general even to this day.

Actually, Unicron is explicitly stated to be the size of a planet, meaning he would give off the same gravity as a planet and thus anything near by would fall towards him. Unicron, despite being an actual planet is able to sneak up on a defenseless planet at the beginning of the film as well as the Autobot bases on Cybertron's moons and then Cybertron itself and in every instance nobody notices him and no sensors detect him before he reaches nomming distance. Possibly justified due to it eventually being revealed that he's a Physical God rather than simply a giant robot, so maybe he can only be detected when he wishes to be.

(The deaths of Bluestreak and Huffer were retconned in the "Dark Awakening" episode.) A number of characters introduced in Season 2 were nowhere to be found due to the script being written concurrently. The IDW Publishing comic based on the film retconned this◊ with the Combiners on the Autobots' side facing Decepticon combiners. Many characters, especially Autobots, are never seen again after the Movie, some of them possibly Killed Offscreen.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_8d25533e	comment	Your Size May Vary: Scale and Transformers have never mixed well, but when you bring in a guy the size of a planet... Unicron tears the scale of things asunder; no matter what he is interacting with in planet mode, it's about the same size as his mouth, be it a planet, a moon, a shuttle, or just Megatron on his own. Once he transforms, a spaceship carrying a dozen characters goes through one eye, and just fits. Its dozen crew transform to ride out the other eye one at a time, and they just fit as well. And that's before comparing him to Cybertron. Going from being as big as it in one scene, to being able to stand on top of it in another. Another such example happens when the Dinobots attack him, where they each start off as being about quarter the size of his hip (and being able to cause some serious damage), to becoming incredibly tiny when he tries to crush them. Astrotrain carries the entire lineup of surviving Decepticons (including a fully formed Devastator) comfortably inside his space shuttle alt-modenote This one is at least mostly justified - many Transformers (such as Soundwave) are explicitly shown to change size when transforming to their alt-mode.

Conversely, they could also be among those Autobots who remained on Cybertron to try to hold down the fort when the Ark launched, working independently of other groups, such as Elita One's female Autobots.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_9afa05c7	comment	Family-Unfriendly Death: Most of The Transformers first two seasons' cast is killed in graphic ways, not counting those who die offscreen. Unicron eats the planet Lithone on-screen, upon which lived millions of robotic lifeforms. Scavenger shoots Prowl, the blast going inside him and reaching Prowl's insides, causing him to effectively burn from the inside out with fire blazing from his mouth endlessly and his optics glowing with the light of the flames. Directly at the camera. In the Japanese dub, Prowl screams in agony as he is shot. Ironhide has his computer-brains blown out execution-style by Megs. The Japanese dub also has Ironhide screaming when Megatron shoots him. Red Alert was also supposed to die by being shot in the back by Devastator, but that scene was never animated. However, Wheeljack and Windcharger look as though this is what happened to them judging by the damage to vital areas on their chests. Optimus gets blasted and stabbed a dozen times (supposedly the fatal wound was due to Megatron repeatedly shooting him right in the wound on his abdomen) while Hot Rod is held hostage. Megatron is beaten to a pulp by Optimus Prime, takes a fall which shows visible internal damage and then left to die in space by Starscream - and probably would have died if Unicron hadn't found him. Starscream takes a direct hit from Galvatron's cannon mode, burning him to a cinder with a look of agony on his face, before disintegrating. The Japanese dub has him screaming during the entire sequence. Kranix and his friend Arblus are fed to the Sharkticons. Although mostly offscreen, we still get to hear him screaming in agony as he's eaten alive. Ultra Magnus gets blown to pieces (originally was going to be drawn and quartered) by the Sweeps, although put back together shortly after. Shockwave was supposed to literally die by Unicron's hand, but they cut out the shot. The Conehead Seekers get chomped by Uni's robot form. (This one ends up being a continuity error, although it's also possible they were just generic "Seekers") Gears and several other captured Transformers inside Unicron are dissolved in an acid bath. Unicron himself is blown to shreds from the inside by the Matrix's power, until the pressure finally causes him to implode. Since the climax takes place inside the planet eater, we even see his innards being blown apart.

Hand Waved by the fact the Decepticons are fully powered with Energon, and grow progressively weaker as they fight. Played perfectly straight with the small handgun Megatron picks up to shoot Prime. True, he's aiming right for the spot where Optimus was previously damaged in repeatedly, but it is incongruously given the same sound effect as his massive arm-mounted fusion cannon and does damage far beyond what a little gun would ever do in this series. The above could be explained away by Megatron himself (who, as his Tech Specs say) being able to interdimensionally draw upon the energy of a black hole to fuel his blasts. This would give even a smaller laser pistol firepower far beyond its normal.

Unicron's Theme, which kicks off the film, and takes cues from DiCola's earlier Drago theme, turning the ominousness up to eleven. "2005", the first track heard after the opening titles, introduces the leitmotifs of the Autobots (very loosely based on the main theme) and the Decepticons. Variations of these leitmotifs would appear later in Season 3 of the series. The distinct portion of "Escape" that isn't using the aforementioned faction leitmotifs gets reused for Ultra Magnus when the Junkions fix him. There's the rousing little number when the Allicons take Kup and Hot Rod into custody, more notably used for their cousins the Sharkticons when they devour those who the Quintessons dump into their pit (and attempt to devour our heroes, only for Autobots, Rock Out! to kick in).

It says a lot that Grimlock can easily sway the Sharkticons to turn on their master simply by stomping his foot and pointing at the Judge, who then sets himself apart from the other major villains in the movie by refusing to fight back and instead running away from the Sharkticons as they happily chase after their next meal.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_dec54a8c	comment	Avoid the Dreaded G Rating: Despite the relatively high amount of violence and deaths in the film, it was originally going to be rated "G" (as said violence was "merely" robot-on-robot violence), and so the creative team realized that to bump that up to a more preferable "PG" rating, they would have to deliberately cross some lines. The most obvious result of this was the infamous line "Oh shit, what are we gonna do now?" (and "Open, dammit, open!" may have served that purpose too). Hilariously, this one was done so the parents would have to accompany their children to the film and know which toys to buy their kids (as well as buy an extra ticket). Didn't matter in the UK where the film got a U certificate anyway.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_e5fd8bc2	comment	Hate Sink: The Quintesson Judge runs a Kangaroo Court in which the "trials" serve as amusement before the prisoners are executed by being dropped into a pit full of Sharkticons. His very first scene has him declare the last survivors of planet Lithone's destruction as innocent and then have them executed anyway, laughing as they are eaten. It says a lot that Grimlock can easily sway the Sharkticons to turn on their master simply by stomping his foot and pointing at the Judge, who then sets himself apart from the other major villains in the movie by refusing to fight back and instead running away from the Sharkticons as they happily chase after their next meal. The Quintesson Prosecutor is not much better. It's all but outright said that he knows the trials will always end with the death of the prisoners and doesn't care, telling Hot Rod and Kup they're next after Kranix is dragged off for his ill-fated trial and later telling the duo they can beg for their lives but it probably won't help. In a movie that treats the topic of death and injury very seriously, the Prosecutor's defeat by getting crushed under a door the Dinobots then walk over is played for comedy.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_f1d6144a	comment	War Is Hell: Almost as if apologizing for trivializing an affair as tragic as battle with the TV series, this movie dragged an entire generation of children kicking-and-screaming by the ears into visceral horror, death and sorrow that is actual warfare. Special mention goes to a scene featuring Arcee pointlessly dragging the blackened corpses of Windcharger and Wheeljack to safety.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_f32d85ab	type	20 Minutes into the Future
The Transformers: The Movie / int_f32d85ab	comment	20 Minutes into the Future: "It is the year 2005." The movie came out in 1986. Interestingly, most of the new Autobots' alt-modes are considered futuristic Earth vehicles, even though they resemble Cybertronian vehicles. note This is actually a bit of Fridge Brilliance. With Transformers being active on earth for 20 years, it would make sense that any with Cybertronian alt modes would influence the design of new vehicles.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_f9a85905	type	Planet Spaceship
The Transformers: The Movie / int_f9a85905	comment	Planet Spaceship: There were two in earlier drafts. The early "The Secret of Cybertron" concept, the Transformers' home planet Cybertron was going to turn out to be a giant Transforming Mecha. A later draft had Junkeon turn out to be one with the Autobots flying it to Cybertron rather than finding a ship. This made it into Marvel's Early Draft Tie-In Comic-Book Adaptationnote The original dialogue is still there, as Wreck-Gar refers to "New Improved Junkion planet", probably because they couldn't afford to have Eric Idle come back and redo the line.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_f9ab4501	type	R-Rated Opening
The Transformers: The Movie / int_f9ab4501	comment	R-Rated Opening: To show this is Darker and Edgier, the opening has a planet (with robotic children, no less) being eaten by Unicron. Shortly thereafter we have the Decepticons boarding the Autobot shuttle, which has the most brutal on-screen deaths in the movie. (The deaths of Prowl and Ironhide in particular are gruesome, as the former's insides seem to explode and smoke pours out of his eyes and mouth, while the latter is mercilessly executed by at point blank range after making a vain attempt to fight back.)

The Transformers: The Movie / int_fc225bec	comment	Artistic License â€“ Physics: When the Decepticons are retreating after the Battle of Autobot City, Astrotrain says they need to jettison excess weight, there's no gravity in space, weight would not be a problem, this is just an excuse for Megatron and the others to be rebuilt into Galvatron, Cyclonus, Scourge and his armada.note This lampshaded in the DVD commentary It almost becomes Accidentally-Correct Writing: too much mass would have made acceleration difficult.

The Transformers: The Movie / int_fc5dd45e	type	Lodged Blade Removal
The Transformers: The Movie / int_fc5dd45e	comment	Lodged Blade Removal: During their climatic duel, Megatron hurls a sharp piece of debris at Optimus Prime, impaling him in the left side of his abdomen. Optimus avoids a couple of follow up shots from Megatron's fusion cannon before punching him into a wall, and then takes the time to remove the debris. Unfortunately, Megatron is wily enough to strike at the wound, first with a laser sword and later with several shots from a laser pistol, the combined damage eventually turning out to be fatal. In Optimus' defense, the debris was large enough to clearly be a hindrance in the fight, so leaving it in wasn't an option (and as a robot, he doesn't have to worry about bleeding; at least not as much as a human with a similar wound would).

Kind of gets subverted by what happens to the injured Decepticons later though...
