Transformers: Age of Extinction ends with Optimus going to outer space to find the Creators and give them a message from the Autobots. There, in the abyss of stars, he could face Unicron - one of the main villains of this universe. This transformer has the ability to subjugate other robots to its will.
Probably, he was able to exert some influence on Optimus Prime, but Unicron failed to completely suppress his essence. In the first video of the movie "Transformers: The last knight"We clearly hear that Optimus Prime, attacking Bumblebee, asks for his forgiveness.
It seems that Unicron was not completely able to subjugate the leader of the Autobots to his will, so the color of his eyes turned purple. As you know, the Autobots have blue eyes, and the Decepticons have red eyes (if you mix red and blue, you get just purple). In the new TV trailer, we're given another clue - a mysterious female voice asks Optimus if he's seeking redemption, to which Prime replies, "Yes, my maker."
Optimus Prime died during his journey - this is confirmed by the footage, which depicts the lifeless body of the transformer. In space, he met Unicron, whose blood (dark energon) returned the robot to the world of the living, and then Autobot brought his, as he himself believes, creator to Earth.
The main roles in the film "Transformers: The Last Knight" were performed by: Isabella Moner, Mark Wahlberg, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Anthony Hopkins, Stanley Tucci, Laura Haddock and others.
The budget is 260,000,000 dollars.
In the meantime, rumors that Michael Bay would say goodbye to the Transformers franchise after the completion of work on the fifth film appeared several months ago - and the other day the director warmed them up by publishing open letter, in which he said goodbye to the film crew and screenwriters of Transformers 5.
Bay did not say directly that "Transformers: The Last Knight" is his last movie franchise, but the letter seems to say goodbye to the series:
“I have been living this franchise for over ten years now. After each film, I said that it would be my last. But I see 120 million fans around the world going to see him at the movies, I see queues at theme parks, I see kids coming to us for film set- and all this makes me come back again and again. I love making these films. But this time it really could be the end,” the director says in his letter.

All's Well That Ends Well
Journal Entry #15: 12/25/2010 early morning
I am packing gifts. For once, I will be celebrating Christmas among friends, not just with work colleagues. Over the gifts to the Autobots, I puzzled for a long time. I’m not sure if they need it, but I’m a human, and it’s quite natural for a human to give gifts to friends on holidays. And here is such a reason.
Our children even decorated the Christmas tree in the hangar. Ratchet at first cursed that the bridge was being used for some kind of nonsense, but then he relented and even put a star on top himself. Bulk and Bee were generally enthusiastic about the holiday preparations. And only Arcee and Optimus constantly disappeared on patrol.
Oddly enough, the Decepticons also fell silent. I already imagine Megatron decorating the Christmas tree and knitting bows on gift boxes. No, it's all my fantasy. I doubt the leader of the Decepticons is susceptible to human sentimentality.
Children will be brought in about three hours, - the dock informed me, not looking up from the monitors.
And what are you looking for? Do you think Megatron will show up?
They are too quiet. They are planning something.
Come on, maybe they took the weekend too. Well, Starscream for sure, - I laughed, remembering what screams were heard on the ship after we left.
Ratchet chuckled and continued to work. I really don't understand why he's doing this. He has an entire automatic signal search system, he will find something - he will squeak.
By the way, did you send a message to Willjack?
That's Bulkhead's business! I have more than enough noise from children, do you offer to listen to them too?
Doc, why are you so mean? Jackie is quite normal, well, they will make some noise, well, they will break something, but you will fix it anyway! You are our chief master! - I said it as a matter of course, even a little indignantly. It worked.
Okay, so be it, I'll send it, - Ratchet melted.
The doc likes to be praised. But, after all, deservedly, why not sweeten the pill, especially since Optimus himself often praises him.
In the time remaining before the children arrived, I paired with Bulk to prepare the energon allocated by Ratchet for the party. Only on this day, Optimus lifted the bans and we decided to arrange racing competitions within our company. I would invite vehicons for extras, but I'm afraid Megatron won't appreciate it.
“We decided” is, of course, a strong word. The initiators were Miko, Bee and Jack, the rest just supported. The only ones who resisted were Ratchet and Optimus, but we convinced them. Even Arcee didn't mind. So two votes against seven ... a clear victory!
Scraplet sat in gift box suspiciously quiet, three children's packages and my bottle of courage. Oh yes, today I will communicate with Prime at ease, the main thing is not to blurt out too much.
The children were brought in by noon, Optimus and Arcee returned almost immediately after their arrival. Again, no news from the Decepticons, as if they had never happened at all. Willjack arrived an hour later. And off we go...
It was decided to arrange the races at night, as the final fun, but for now we gave each other gifts, talked, laughed and played. From me the children received their own Dark Impulse. Most of all, Miko squealed with delight. She tried to put her hands on my sample before, but I successfully drove her away.
The third glass is empty, you can start congratulating the Autobots. I hope I won't be left crippled after this.
Optimus, guys, you also have a present here, - I smiled enigmatically, anticipating the upcoming performance. Miko told how violently they reacted to these little rodents. - Optimus, as a leader, I trust you to open this box.
Well, I guess I'm not doing well with him ... Prime carefully untied the tape and flipped the lid. The Autobots leaned in a crowd, trying to see what lies inside, what is hidden in the darkness of the cardboard ...
Then everything happened so fast, I wouldn’t remember anything if I didn’t keep a record, but I had fun from the bottom of my heart. It turns out that the scraplet fell asleep, but when living metal appeared nearby, he woke up. The first victim was Ratchet... (and I so hoped that it would be Optimus).
What the! Take away! - the dock jumped and dodged, trying to get a nimble animal.
Nooo! Ahh! - our giant fired from a cannon, looked around with a frightened look. He thought there would still be scraplets.
I didn't expect such agility from clumsy Bulkhead, let alone such cries... even more so. New holes appeared in the walls from shots and blows. Jackie could hardly restrain his friend, trying to explain to him that we would all die under the ruins if he did not calm down. Bee and Arcee heroically tried to catch and shake the scraplet off the dock. Even Prime's face flickered with fear for a second, but nothing more. No wonder he is the leader, Optimus immediately realized that there was nothing to be afraid of. Ratchet, however, also quickly guessed.
Stop panic! - calm order, sustained tone. Damn, Optimus, can anything get through to you at all?
All the rigmarole instantly stopped, that's power! Even the regular destroyer froze in the pose “a heron in a swamp catches a frog under a leaf of a water lily”. I didn't feel embarrassed, I wasn't ashamed, I wasn't sober enough for that. It is strictly forbidden to do such things on a sober head.
Optimus shook his head reproachfully, while Ratchet stood as dark as a cloud.
Well, why are you all so blown up? Doc glanced around at those present. - Not a scratch on me!
How it is? - Bulk carefully examined the body of the dock, and the scraplet continued to rush about chaotically.
He is not dangerous, - Optimus deftly caught the goat by the head and carefully examined it. - See for yourself.
Bulkhead very carefully, almost on tiptoe, approached the object of his nightmare and narrowed his eyes.
And what's in his mouth?
Polished brushes.
Balk turned his head in bewilderment, looking at the scraplet, then the dock's hull.
Your sides are shining,” he stated.
Rita, is this your doing? Finally, they noticed me.
Yes, yes, the decision to make him not just a pet, but a useful pet came to my mind in last moment. In place of the removed grinding plates, I screwed hard brushes and pre-lubricated them with polish. But the very moment of acquaintance with the new tenant of the base was important to me.
Why didn't you warn us? - oh, naive Optimus Prime, does not know at all the insidious nature of a woman suffering from unrequited love.
Then there would be no surprise, - I giggled and started playing the recording from the cameras. “Don't be so serious all the time, Optimus. This is bad for the nerves and psyche, relax, replenish your Energon supply and rest.
Yeah, after this you just need to air out, - Arcee sighed with relief and laughed.
The tension dissipated, everyone's spirits rose. One by one, the Autobots tried out the pet's powers. Even the battle-scarred Optimus now shone like a brand new samovar. Only Bulkhead kept a respectful distance from the scraplet, phobias are a terrible thing. I didn’t even think that robots could have fears in such a severe form.
While our friendly team was having fun, I called Bruno and asked where he was.
I am at work as always. At Christmas we have a lot of tourists, - the receiver answered me.
Okay, don't go anywhere, I'll be right there!
Ratchet looked at me suspiciously, but the bridge opened. I couldn't help but congratulate my childhood friend. And then, I wanted to talk to someone. Children are not suitable for this purpose, the Autobots are even more so, but I generally keep quiet about Fowler. The authorities do not need to know about my inner experiences. And Bruno could always listen, pat on the head and say that everything will be fine. Silly and banal phrase, but it always reassured me.
I did not know that you were already here when you called, - a smiling man rose from the table to meet me. - I'm so glad to see you! Will you drink?
Perhaps. I'm glad I was able to visit you too.
You have changed, - Bruno gave the conclusion, after careful study me.
Come on? And how exactly? Scared, right? I laughed.
No, on the contrary! You seem to glow from within. Admit it, are you in love? Who is he? When is the wedding?
The last question stumped me. I immediately pictured Optimus very clearly in a classic three piece with me in my wedding dress on the shoulder, and laughed even more.
And you know everything! Yes, friend, I fell in love, only in my case a wedding is impossible, and my love is most likely unrequited - I became sad again, well, again my mood is naughty.
I give a tooth, you did not even try to confess! And hide your feelings with all your might! Silly ... - he sighed and looked reproachfully into my eyes.
Oh, Bruno, if you knew him, you wouldn't say that, - I immediately had the idea of introducing them and seeing the reaction of a friend when he finds out that a healthy tin can with superhero manners has become the owner of my heart.
I shook my head, driving away bad ideas and put another candy in my mouth. In general, not everything is so bad, four glasses of whiskey is a normal flight. I even felt amused again that Bruno didn't know anything about Optimus. My friend is now in full swing painted charms for me family life: Sunday trips to church, children, school, joint weekend, barbecue and a nice swimming pool in the yard. Well, yes, nice, but Optimus somehow doesn’t fit into all this ... he didn’t come out tall. Rather, it went beyond the norm, very much.
Come on, you're not even listening to me! Bruno was offended.
Listening, listening, just trying to imagine our with him life together, - I smiled.
Everything will be fine, you can be sure, - he smiled and began to stroke my head, as in childhood.
All is well that ends well. I returned to the base pretty much cheered up, refreshed and satisfied with life. The guys were getting ready to race. Bulkhead and the dock were distributing energon for filling.
Optimus went first. It seemed to me that his portion of Energon was slightly unclear, although I did not attach any importance to this, my drunken eyes could let me down. Behind him is Ratchet, whose portion also aroused my doubts, then Bulk, Bea, Arcee and Jackie.
Children joyfully rushed around the Autobots, looking forward to entertainment. And I calmly sat on the couch and looked at all this fuss.
Or maybe we’ll call the Decepticons, congratulate them, invite them to ride? - I don’t know what kind of demon pushed me, but I voiced the thought that came into my head without even thinking.
four couples blue eyes the Autobots and three pairs of children stared at me as if I were a mindless person. I have already managed to be disappointed, upset and resigned to the fact that my idea did not even pass, like a bad joke.
Why not? I rolled my eyes when I heard Ratchet support my ridiculous idea.
This is madness! Are you out of your mind? Optimus, say something! - Arcee was indignant, and everyone stared at the leader.
Great offer!
Optimus Prime - self-possessed, balanced, calm, impassive and wise leader, now smiled in "thirty-two teeth" and looked at us with a cloudy look. I had a bad idea:
Bulkhead, what kind of Energon did you put in Doku and Prime's injection tank?
Uh ... well, there are empty tanks ...
Slowly, swaying slightly, I approached the empty container. Without a doubt, these are the same tanks that I sent to the trash yesterday so that they do not take up space.
Where did you get them? I glared at our destroyer.
They were lying around, I thought the dock hid ...
Uuu ... - I howled, what to do.
What's wrong with this energy? - Arcee sat down next to me and also began to examine them.
It's ruined, I threw it away... Pour me someone else... - I hope it's not fatal.
What we are going to do? Willjack moved away from Optimus, who was talking to Ratchet and waving his arms wildly.
Nothing, - I got up and returned to the sofa. - I like this Prime better.
Maybe we can give them an Energon transfusion? B suggested.
The idea is good, it can help, but it will have to be postponed, because ...
Megatroon! Braat! How do you feel? - from our crazy Autobots shouts of joy were heard, they got through to the Decepticons.
Personally, it would be more appropriate for me to grab my head and do everything possible to stop what is happening. Although no, I won’t, I’m also interested, I’m also not quite normal today. And, as they say, drunk and the sea is knee-deep. Let there be Megatron.
Prime! What do you want?!
Hush hush! What, can't I contact you and tell you how dear you are to all of us? - sincere laughter of Optimus sounded somehow wild and unusual, but pleasant.
Don't pull! Megatron, come out, you vile coward! - the doc tapped the panel with his fist, from which it creaked strainedly.
For some time there was complete silence on the air. Either the connection is bad, or the leader of the Decepticons has switched off, or he is simply in shock. The last option turned out to be the most correct:
Prime, what kind of poison did you take with your medic? And what do you want from me? - even Megatron's voice changed: from imperious, he became cautious and a little confused.
Yes, everything is great! Don't slow down, step on the gas, or whatever you have, and drag your metal ass to the meeting point!
Optimus, - poisonous notes cut through the intonation of the Decepticon, - are you out of your mind? Or is that how people act on you? I ask you in last time: what do you want from me? - clearly, syllable by syllable, highlighting each word, said Megatron.
Prime and Doc looked at each other in bewilderment and ... neighed out loud, I'm in shock, Megatron, apparently, too.
Nothing special, everything as always! I will beat you! It's time to pour you well, so that it hurts to sit!
Megatron, stop breaking like a muslin lady and crawl out of your lair! You can even invite your friends, we are all happy!
The Decepticon Lord growled in annoyance, but accepted the coordinates and hurried to cut off the connection before he learned anything else about himself.
And what, I even like it! Jackie defiantly drew his blades. - Once again, give battle to the Decepticons! I'm with you!
And I happily watched as Bulk joined Willjack, B pulled up behind him, and Arcee had no choice but to share common interests. Miko jumped with delight, because no one forbade her to watch the battle, only Raph and Jack looked at each other and did not understand very well what was happening.
Even in such an insane state, Prime possessed unimaginable charisma, such that absolutely adequate Autobots were ready to follow him even to hell. I involuntarily fell in love with them. Then she jumped off the couch and called out to him:
Optimus, - he immediately turned to me, - me, please, to my observation deck, I will also go with you.
He moved me very carefully from the platform to his shoulder. God, how much tenderness I felt for him at that moment, it even seemed to me that this tenderness was mutual.
With such a team, today we will re-educate the entire Decepticon brethren! - Miko triumphantly raised her hand up, showing full readiness for the campaign.
Races are cancelled... Hello fight!
Everything looked like in old westerns: old road through the gorge of the canyon, the dry wind raises clouds of red sand and dust, dark sky overcast, and, at the end of the image, the opponents in groups stand opposite each other, waiting for the unknown. The only thing missing is the appropriate music and a rolling stone in the background. I already knew some opponents. Megatron, in person, led his group, Soundwave to his right, Starscream to his left (hey, alive and unharmed, that's lucky), about five vehicons, and I saw the rest for the first time.
That red one, this is Knockout, their doctor, - Arcee advised me, - Second, behind him is Breakdown, he is at Knockout, like heavy artillery.
Clearly, but the vehicons are here for quantity, or what?
Yeah, they'll distract us. In vain, this will not help them! - and Arcee grinned evilly, changing her hands to guns.
The wait got longer and more boring. With nothing else to do, I tapped my fist on Optimus' helmet. He turned to me and smiled knowingly, saying that I was not high either. And I couldn't even look at him! Ah, those eyes of his...
Prime, I'm here!
The fight was intense but short. Arcee and Bee smashed the vehicons in the usual duet, Bulkhead and Jackie successfully pressed Knockout and Breakdown. Oddly enough, Starscream dealt with Ratchet quite successfully, although Doc also did not exchange small things, answering competently and creatively: Scream lost the spire on his helmet, damaged his right wing and was very angry, from which his blows received additional strength.
Everyone was rooting for their own. I supported both Ratchet and Optimus, well, with the difference that our leader got more attention.
Let's! Hit him! I yelled, encouraging Prime to take action. - This snob called me a pet! Knock out all the nuts and bolts!
We must pay tribute, Megatron immediately cleared that something was not right. In his head, too, the image of such a daring and crazy Prime, which Optimus was now, did not fit.
Prime moved smoothly around the enemy, not disdaining sneaky blows on the sly. At the same time, he played cat and mouse with Megatron. While he was trying to see him from one side, Prime was already hitting from the other. In my head, looking at all this, thoughts were moving lazily. Yes, Optimus would never have allowed himself to mock the enemy like that, and even tease, and sometimes openly point out shortcomings...
Megatron, what happened to you? Do you practice punches on Starscream? The Decepticon clenched his jaw. - All you can do is put meat into battle, - the enemy flew into a pile of dead vehicons.
Prime! Prime! Prime! I chanted. - You are my idol!
Megatron growled, got angry, waved, parried, fell and got up. With enviable frequency, he always looked sideways in my direction. The rest of the Autobots turned their opponents to flight, however, I still did not understand where Soundwave was all this time ... I was too carried away by the fight, but I still did not find out where he had gone, when he left and who defeated him.
Seizing the moment when Optimus was at his most exposed, Megatron struck, throwing him far back, slamming him into the rocks. I bit my lip, hoping that he would have time to get up before the enemy reached him. But the Decepticon Lord had other plans. He moved quickly, almost imperceptibly. Then I realized that I was very tightly and securely squeezing his fist.
Pet, did you turn Prime into a laughing stock? - his scarlet eyes approached and almost burned right through me.
And he is never a laughing stock, it's you who constantly doesn't play by the rules! What, did not like it when they treat you the same way as you treat everyone else? - I grinned.
Next time I won't drink at all, not a drop, ever! Should I have at least some kind of protection mechanism to work? But no, silence ... The brain is turned off, and the tongue is actively running into trouble in the name of one soft spot.
Wow, this is a direct threat. From the lips of someone like Megatron, it really sounded sobering. My brain opened its "eyes", realized the size, strength and dimensions of the enemy, and began to work hard.
I'll crush you like a bug, - the grip became stronger.
Megatron, you don't talk to girls like that! came Prime's voice just above his ear. The replica was followed by a loud bang, the Decepticon's hand unclenched, and I flew down.
To be honest, I was poorly aware of what was happening next, Megatron managed to crush me, so, from the oxygen that suddenly poured into my lungs, in large numbers I just passed out.
Head hurts...
I got up on my elbows and tried to look around. Bright light hurt his eyes, distant sounds slowly approached.
Rita, Rita, how are you? Prime's worried face appeared above me.
Passable. And where am I?
At the base, Ratchet tried to examine you.
Oh, yes, I'm slowly starting to remember my shameful swoon.
You got off with a few scratches, - stated the doc.
And how are you? - judging by the way they behaved, everyone returned to their normal state.
Bumblebee and Arcee helped us get rid of that Energon.” Optimus smiled.
Tell me next time if you mess up the energon and dispose of it.” Ratchet frowned, making me feel small and stupid and guilty.
Some time later, Optimus carried me out into the fresh air. The whole body ached, the head was cast iron.
It is very difficult to concentrate all the time and keep all the emotions in your hands so as not to interfere, - Prime began, looking somewhere into the distance. - You were right when you said that you need to give yourself a rest. But I cannot allow a repetition of my today's madness.
Sorry...
This is not your fault. Now I feel much better, thank you. Can I ask you for a favor? - he looked at me carefully.
Of course, anything, - I breathed a sigh of relief, he is not angry with me, that's good.
If I need to unload systems like this again, will you keep me company? - He spoke quite seriously, but at the same time the smile was very warm.
We stayed a little longer fresh air and went back to base. I was already getting out of the freight elevator myself, turning in the direction of my apartment.
Rita, - Prime called me, - so, then I'm your idol?
I closed my eyes, he remembers everything, damn it!
Exactly, and even more - I had to hurriedly retreat so that the conversation would not go on the topic: “what is more?”
Journal Entry #15: 12/25/2010 night
I'm glad it all turned out the way it did. I should probably thank Bulkhead for bringing back the tainted energon. Thanks to this mistake, I became a little closer to Optimus. At least he now knows more about my feelings.
I secretly hope that he will guess everything himself if he starts to reason logically, but not now, not this minute ...

Optimus tries to improve the world, if possible without resorting to violence, but, if necessary, is ready to fight for a just cause. As a representative of the most ancient transformers, he has boundless wisdom and an incredibly huge physical force maintains composure even in extreme situations, and this, combined with excellent combat skills, makes him invincible. Of course, "being invincible" does not mean "being invulnerable": in almost every series about transformers, Optimus Prime dies. However, he is sure to be reborn to life, and even more powerful than before. Optimus Prime is the bearer of the Matrix of Leadership, which contains the wisdom accumulated by the Autobots over many millions of years. The Matrix gives Prime the answers to the most difficult questions, helps to lead the Autobots in any, even the most extreme, situations and fight the Decepticons. Biography"The Transformers"Before the beginning great war was known by the name Orion Mirny(English) Orion Pax), and his character was quite consistent with this nickname. However, his good nature caused trouble: trusting Megatron, he showed him the Autobot energy storage, and he treacherously captured it with his army. Orion himself, his friend Dion and beloved Ariel were seriously injured and would probably have died if they had not been rescued by the airbots that arrived from the future. They took Orion to the workshop of the wise Alpha Trion, who reconstructed Orion into Optimus Prime. Thus, a new leader of the Autobots was born, who led their fight against the Decepticons. When the energy resources of Cybertron were depleted to the limit during the centuries-old war, Optimus gathered a team of the best, most experienced and dedicated Autobot fighters and went with them on a journey through the Universe in search of new sources of energy. However, during the flight, they were overtaken by the Decepticons and boarded the Ark. A fight ensued, as a result of which the Ark lost control and crashed to Earth. Optimus Prime and his entire crew, as well as all the Decepticons on board at the time, were deactivated and comatose for 4 million years. Upon awakening from hibernation in 1984, they discovered that the planet was habitable. Now Prime had to take care not only to fight the Decepticons, but also to ensure that people did not get hurt in the process. He voluntarily took on the responsibility of protecting people, thereby setting an example for the rest of the Autobots. "The Headmasters"Carried out general leadership Autobots while on Cybertron. When the Decepticons' attempts to take control of the Sigma Computer made it unstable, Optimus sacrificed himself and merged with it to prevent an explosion that could have destroyed the entire planet. Transformers: Super-God MasterforceIn this series, Optimus is an ordinary earthly guy who, having bought a truck, found bracelets in it. One of the Autobots explained to him that these bracelets (transtectors) could help him become a robot. He soon experienced it for himself. Then he got a trailer with which he could unite. It was a super mode. Later (after being defeated in a battle with Lord Giga and Ruler Mega), he was given a robot that he could unite with. "Transformers: Victory"Appears only in a few episodes, and was "demoted" - here he is no longer the leader of the Autobots, but the commander of the Earth Defense Forces, a subordinate of the Fighter. Mortally wounded in battle with the Deathbringer, he was reformatted into a new transformer - the Victorious. In a new quality, he received the ability to unite with the Fighter, as a result of which a powerful gestalt is formed - the Winner. "The Unicron Trilogy"Is actor all parts of the trilogy. "Transformers: Animated"At the beginning of the series, Optimus Prime appears as a very young officer; for some reason, he does not have the best account with his superiors, and therefore he was assigned to a supernumerary brigade of Autobot repairmen engaged in the maintenance of "space bridges". However, due to circumstances, modest hard workers had to retrain as fighters - the defenders of the Earth and the Allspark. Caught in new role, Optimus Prime showed what he was capable of, demonstrating his outstanding leadership qualities - intelligence, determination, endurance, courage and the ability to quickly find a way out of the most difficult situation. He also manages to find mutual language with people. "Transformers Prime "In ancient times, on Cybertron, he held a modest position as an archivist. Currently, he leads a team of Autobot defenders of the Earth, consisting of the most loyal, valiant and reliable warriors, including Bumblebee, Ratchet, Bulkhead, Cliffjumper and Arcee. Movies (2007, 2009, 2011)
Modified Optimus in the Michael Bay film trilogy In all three films Optimus Prime acts as the leader of the Autobots. In the first film, he, at the head of a small detachment of the most reliable fighters, arrives on Earth in search of the Allspark (or "Great Spark") - an incredibly powerful source of energy capable of generating entire worlds, which was lost during the fratricidal war on Cybertron, unleashed by the Decepticons to capture it. . His goal is to destroy the Allspark (Spark) in order to prevent the Decepticons from using his power to carry out their villainous plans. Although terrestrial civilization, by the standards of transformers, is still very primitive, Prime is ready to protect people, no matter what it costs to himself and his Autobot friends. Objecting to those who consider people a backward and barbaric race (and not only Megatron thinks so, but even some of the Autobots - in particular, Ironhide), Optimus expresses confidence that people, like all living beings, deserve freedom, and that they, too, have a choice. Even when humans begin to show hostility towards the Autobots, he puts up with it, respecting their right to accept independent solutions; his only response to being told to leave Earth is to ask him to think. In the final part of the Michael Bay trilogy, he also acts as the leader of the Autobots and tries to prevent the conversion of people into slaves of the Decepticons and the movement of Cybertron to Earth. All the main villains died from his hand - Megatron's former deputy Shockwave, the traitor Autobot Sentinel Prime and Megatron himself. Although Optimus, like other Transformers, received a new, technically sophisticated design, the creators retained many classic details in his appearance. In particular, he was left with windows on his chest and an almost identical head. SpecificationsAt the end of the movie " Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen", a former Decepticon named Jetfire gives Optimus his parts, as a result of which Optimus becomes the owner of even greater strength and even gets the ability to fly. In the movie "" Optimus got a trailer in which he stores additional weapons and wings for flight. Character
In the animated series, Optimus Prime is "a knight without fear or reproach", the ideal commander of the Autobots. He is devoid of flaws. His subordinates are loyal to him and proud to act and fight under his leadership. Even enemies pay tribute to him. He can only be reproached with too much compassion for others and anxiety for their safety, which give rise in him to a constant readiness for self-sacrifice. In the film epic " Transformers" Optimus' character is somewhat different. Here Optimus is also noble and fearless, but his character largely loses its usual gentleness. This is especially noticeable in the final part of the trilogy, where Prime demonstrates ruthlessness to enemies that was not characteristic of him before. Nevertheless, Optimus always and under any circumstances sacredly remains faithful to the ideals of the Autobots. NotesLiterature

Absolutely logical if you think about it.
Three days later, Russia will host the premiere of a new part of transforming robots - "Transformers: The Last Knight". You want to go there, but you pull yourself up - they say that, just a child?
Come on, put your doubts aside. We men are from simple pleasures we don't grow up. And as we were children, so we remain them. This is fine.
There are millions of us, and we will definitely go to see "Transformers: The Last Knight" with a bottomless bucket of popcorn. because there is nothing to be ashamed of: this is a refined pleasure in the best traditions of everything that you adored as a child.
A bit of history. Where did they even come from?
Just so you know, the Transformers story started with toys. In 1983 representatives American company Hasbro I saw MicroChange robots at the toy exhibition. Their trick is to transform into audio cassettes, toy cars and weapons.
The theme was liked by the head of Hasbro, in short time similar toys were re-released for the US. And to improve sales, a year later they launched comics and a pilot cartoon of three episodes.
Here is the original Japanese transformers intro, remember:
Their arrival in Russia took place in the early nineties, when the first animated series began to be broadcast on the sixth channel. Then Optimus Prime became famous:
And also Megatron, Armored car, Ratchet, Strongman, Racer, (we always had so-so translators) Arrester, Twig (cartoon sex symbol!) And Scorponog.
What if these robot names don't evoke emotion in you? It's okay. To enjoy The Last Knight, in the Transformers universe you don't need to figure it out at all.
Doctor, I saw "Transformers" and I liked it, why?
No panic! So it should be, everything is logical. This is the favorite topic of all the boys: cars and robots. In childhood, they discussed who is stronger - Optimus Prime or Megatron, Spiderman or Batman. And now we are arguing about iPhone or Android, BMW and Mercedes. No difference.
But it's one thing to love transforming robots as a kid, and another to openly watch them in movies at 30. What makes men go to the cinema in droves and not be ashamed of it at all?
The wildest special effects, it's Michael! Can look and recline
The first part of the cinematic "Transformers" was released in 2007 year. Together with a clear plot and well-developed characters, we got an excellent action movie about the struggle of tons of metal with each other and, of course, Megan Fox.
They went to look at Megan, but remembered the robots. Still would:
Transformers movies have become a cultural bridge between generations. In the US, the problem of the difference between the interests of young people and "old people" is partially solved by remakes and sequels. Films form a kinship of tastes and a link between generations. The scene of buying a car by Sam Witwicky in the first part is a clear confirmation of this. An old yellow beetle, and a young and perky yellow Chevrolet Camaro (pictured).
The first film and the next two really honed the skills of the director of the franchise, Michael Bay: a lot of explosions, slow-mo, an epic camera fly around the main characters. I even wonder what the fifth part will come to, "Transformers: The Last Knight".
Rumor has it there might be an Unicron robot. transforming into a planet:
You won’t believe it, but all the transformations of the robots on the screen are calculated mathematically: if you look in slow motion, you can trace where each detail goes and goes. And the details can be several thousand.
A killer picture in general is Michael Bay's signature stamp. Until recently, the only thing missing was a normal plot.
"Transformers" catchy, you can even worry, 2 hours fly by unnoticed
In 2014, the director made a soft reboot of Transformers: more drama, more interesting plot. Still, explosions and love for robots alone won't take you far.
And you know, it worked: the picture collected more than 1 billion dollars, becoming one of the most box office films of that year.
Since then, Transformers has a normal plot, you can even voice it out loud and not seem crazy. And for the new part, the script was written by Arthur Markham, the author of the first part " iron man”and Ken Nolan, author of the cool action movie Black Hawk Down. Should be generally on "five".
In short: if you like action - blow on the new Transformers
What are we waiting for? A ton of explosions, a mega-beautiful picture and a peppy plot. The film is already expected to break the records of previous installments.
The first Transformers movie was $150 million.
The fifth film, Transformers: The Last Knight, is $260 million.
Here's the trailer, recharge:
The film is not to be taken too seriously. crazy adventure playing on everything that you loved so much as a child. Refined fan, which you can safely go big company. And the kids will be interested too.
Each sequel should have a feature that would distinguish it from previous films in the franchise. The Transformers: The Last Knight feature is: "What if Optimus Prime turns evil?"
On the posters for the film, you can read: "Reassess your heroes." In we see purple eye Optimus, who is trying to kill his former associates: Bumblebee and Mark Wahlberg. “For my world to live, your world must die,” Prime whispers in the voice of actor Peter Cullen.
If Optimus' betrayal is supposed to be a shocking twist, it won't work. Perhaps Optimus Prime was conceived as a noble character, but in last years Michael Bay dragged him to the dark side. In any case, whether Optimus was good or bad, he has always been a "dark horse" in the films.
In the cartoons, Optimus Prime was different. In the old 1980s Generation One animated series, Prime was a warrior for good. Speaking about the filming of Transformers: Age of Extinction, Cullen mentioned that he came up with the voice of Prime based on the voice of his brother, which sounded honor, dignity, strength, reliability, responsibility and nobility. This is how Optimus Prime was usually portrayed in the 1980s.

In the cartoons, Optimus seemed to young viewers like his father, even grandfather, thanks to low voice Cullen. Cinematic Prime came closest to this image in the first Michael Bay films, where the character was still idealistic enough to say things like "freedom is a right of all living beings."
There was a lot more gore in Bay's Transformers than in the cartoons. But at first, Prime seemed to still regret the bloodshed: "You left me no choice," he says over the lifeless corpse of Megatron. It also commemorates one of the dead Autobots and praises newfound allies. In the first movie, Prime seems like good old Prime.

Change began in the first sequel, Revenge of the Fallen. Although the Transformers still cooperate with the Earth military, this alliance is gradually weakening. Optimus confesses to hiding new opportunities from the US government as he has witnessed humanity's predisposition towards war.
As Prime's disillusionment with humanity grows, he increasingly resorts to violence. Instead of "you left me no choice", he yells "give me your face" when he rips the head of the main antagonist in Revenge of the Fallen. This time he has a choice and he chooses a face.
“I rise, you fall!” is a phrase that shows that the hero has completely turned into a killer. Two years later, in dark side Moon" Optimus regularly kills people and proudly says phrases like "We'll kill them all!".
When Prime goes into battle with Megatron and Sentinel Prime, the former leader of the Autobots who betrays his comrades in an attempt to resurrect the Cybertron home planet, Megatron is brutally beheaded by Optimus. Of course it is main enemy and this is the height of the battle, so his actions are justified. But then Optimus executes Sentinel Prime by shooting him in the back and then in the head.
At this moment, Optimus Prime, the hero of millions of children in the 1980s, executes defenseless enemies. Is this Transformers or a Dirty Harry reboot?
In "The Dark Side of the Moon", Prime promises that "The day will come when we will leave this planet and its people." In 2014's Era of Extinction, Optimus laments helping humanity ("How many more treasures will I have to sacrifice to atone for my mistakes?"), fantasizes about sadistic revenge ("They killed Ratchet... I'll tear them apart!"), and then recruits the Dinobots under the threat of death. "We give you freedom!" he says to Grimlock, punching him in the face. After defeating the Tyrannosaurus in combat, Optimus raises his sword over Dinobot's head and says "You protect us or die!". Yes, this is real freedom!
By the time Optimus proclaimed the inspirational slogan "Autobots! We'll prove who we are and why we're here!” his blond image was pretty much flushed down the toilet. Optimus regrets his cooperation with humanity and threatens to quit everything. He kills enemies in cold blood and he likes it. When bad Optimus appears in The Last Knight, will we feel the difference?
