Its simple, he escaped because he is Optimus Prime
Your right
YES!👍
👍
Plot armor lol
He is optimus the freaking prime he always come back whenever he’s dead
Despite how much I loved the Bumblebee movie, I was always bothered by the fact that they never explained it. Thank you Theorymus!
Yea Ty
I think that's the point: they want to leave it for the fans to make their own conclusions. It's refreshing seeing movies that don't give everything away and leave things to the imagination.
I love BBM too! It was SO good! By far the BEST TF live-action movies ever are BBM & RotB, by a landslide!!
My personal theory: Metroplex saved him and took him to another nearby autobot base
yeahhh
Sheeesh 😂
I would imagine he's doing that similar to how metroplex made his entrance in fall of Cybertron
Or Omega Supreme? Omega is also an Option, But Metroplex is Bigger and cooler.
same with me but i say omega supreme
Taking on 46 Decepticons, winning, and escaping. Prime is literally that one teammate who hard carries you every match
It’s like round 20 on escalation
Never noticed at 2:55 until now that you can hear how afraid drop kick and shatter are in their voice especially when their voice quivers when they realize Optimus prime is coming to earth.
They really got a nice beating from Prime
Optimus prime : STAY DOWN OR GIVE ME UR FACE 😈
@@tosiftasbin8203 Different Optimus.
This Optimus would say "Stand down. I will not ask a second time". If anything happens like in RotB that 100% requires Optimus to be a little more brutal in his fighting style, then so be it. Killing is his last resort, if all else fails. But, normally, this Optimus wouldn't be that brutal. Think back in RotB, Optimus's fighting style in the beginning was perfectly fine & not too brutal, then later Scourge came & mopped the floor with him, mocked him, & killed one of his sons (Bee & Mirage are Optimus's sons in RotB, you can't deny it), so to Optimus, in that moment onward, being a little more brutal in his fighting style was absolutely necessary & he was very ticked off cuz of what Scourge did. But, in the future of the Knightverse, Optimus most likely will be like how he was in BBM & the beginning of RotB (fighting wise).
You know, I actually hear that now. I originally thought they were eager to kill all the Autobots that were coming to Earth
They had a front row tickets
I still can't get over how perfect Prime's design is in Bee's movie, like daaaaaaaaaaaaamn.
A shame they changed it, Wheeljack too. Like, you had perfect, PERFECT, designs that everyone loved, and you just threw them away
@@windowbewbs9064 Um, Pablo & Wheeljack are separate characters now, it was confirmed. & RotB Optimus didn't really change too much & I love Optimus in BBM & RotB!!!
Considering before the flashback is over we can see Prime strike that iconic Bayverse pose, it's safe to assume most seekers were put offline by Prime's murderous survival instinct
Killing is his last resort, just look at RotB! Optimus was fighting as Optimus should, then Scourge mopped the floor with him, mocked him, & killed his son (Bumblebee is Optimus's son in RotB, you can't deny it), so he HAD to be the way he was later on in RotB. But, he will probably be at least a little like he was in BBM & beginning of RotB (fighting wise) in the next movies!
@@fennekin1750or or bumblebee is Prime apprentice as it always had been and he just witness one of his close friend and comrade killed in front of him that he swore to protect as all other autobots
@@draketimmons684 Or that. But, if you see how Optimus acts towards Bee & Mirage in the film, it makes Optimus seem like a father. Remember the line, "I do not want you to go to that drive-in theater anymore", which basically sounds like, "Bee, you're grounded". Or any of the lines from Optimus to Mirage. Idk thats just how I see Optimus in RotB.
@@fennekin1750While I do agree, the son part doesn’t seem realistic. Bumblebee was the entire reason the Autobots survived, so it was reasonable he’d let loose on Scourge when he was killed.
@@c4tb0mb That, too! But, Bee does feel like an almost son to Optimus, Imo
& I just want to add to my earlier point abt Optimus's fighting style in RotB, just cuz. If you can see in Optimus's fight with Battletrap in the Final Battle, judging by the way he moves towards the end of it makes it look like he was abt to stab Battletrap in the chest, just a simple stab, then Primal interfered & smashed him to pieces, adding to the point that Optimus isn't very brutal in this universe, even with everything going against him in the movie.
I noticed this on my 2nd watch of the movie more recently (I don't remember when)
Optimus is just built different, That’s why he is a Prime!
I would've said "born different" but he actually is built I forgor
He's got the dawg in him
@@JordanTheRabbitMonkey whether this Optimus was born or built is still unknown since his origins have yet to be explained
He Was Rebuilt into Optimus by Alpha Trion. Idk if that's just G1 Cannon or everywhere else.
A moment in the film I wished we had a deleted scene for the MOST. Always wondered what strategy he used to get away. I’d like to think he fought some off, got overpowered, then some remaining Autobots ran in to reinforce, allowing him to drive off. Those couldn’t be 100% of the Autobot force that evacuated. And if some stayed behind, their first instinct would be to protect their leader. Allowing him to proceed with the bigger mission to help establish the new base on Earth. 💙❤️👀🤔🎥
Fr
Wait, what!? How did you write this!? This is awesome!! & it makes SO much sense!! Good job, man!
I like to think he flew out of there, because shatter and dropkick would be dead if they tried to fight optimus
Optimus likely prioritized escape, but still killed most of them on his way out.
Wow, I never knew optimus prime had to fight 46 Decepticons. While i was trying to comprehend this theory my mind was blown. And I was like" Deam Optimus Prime is an op beast".it would have been amazingly cool if this fight was in the movie.
If the fight was in the movie
Reactions of transformers fans:
Fans: what is prime gona to now he prop dead in this reboot
Fans when they see the scene: OMA GAWDGUY SDID YALL SE THAT PRIME JUST DEMOLISHED 46 FISHING CONS HE AINT GONA DIE ANYTIME SOON!!!!!!!!!!!
To rap it up, the cons would be dead 😁
And also if you say my reply is misspelled that’s because in that moment when people see the scene they won’t know what they are saying lol
Of course he’s OP, he’s a Prime after all
optimus prime, nah its robo jesus
This was an Absolutely Amazing Theory for how Optimus Prime escaped from Cybertron.
I see this as a great opportunity to kill two birds with one stone here. Cullen has mentioned he wants to do a standalone Optimus Prime film. Fans want to know how Optimus escaped Cybertron.
Give us a film set almost entirely on Cybertron showing us what all he had to do to survive. This could also tie in and show fans a little more info on why Prime seemed so broody and melancholy in Rise of the Beasts (yes they gave us an explanation, but this could show more to us other than just homesickness).
Peter Cullen in sadly not getting any younger, and even though it's been nearly five years between movies, we're still only two in so far. Give fans that perspective movie while also letting the Legend himself get his wish.
I was expecting a how it should have ended reference when optimus distract the deceptions and then disguise himself as one
Got that idea from HISHE 🤣🤣
Kickback-imus Prime!!
I was always curious how prime survived
46 Decepticons vs One True Prime. I couldn’t have respected Prime more for this
Takes the line “I take you all on!” to another level
I don’t think you noticed but at 4:39 you see other escape pods which are too far to be from the same platform.
Prime killed every enemy while screaming "I'll take you all on!" like he did in revenge of the fallen chills literal chills just thinking about it (dual energon blades all the way)
Maybe one day, we'll *_FINALLY_* get an official answer...
Probably not though. 🤣
Maybe a short film, abt 20-40 mins!?
It would be awesome if we see Omega Supreme in live action.
I like to see that too man
Who's that
@@guywith37subs he's an autobot. A big autobot that appeared in the 80s. Look him up.
@@christianparrish3292ohh I saw him in a ep 2 days ago , I watched g1 ep about optimus primes orgins , he appeared in that , it's cool he can transform into a quite literal rocket, I also wanna see ultra magnus in a live action movie
@@guywith37subsbig robot whos sometimes the size of devastator and also transforms into a rocket base
A rocket base that just magically appears out of thin air
Simply put.... He fought his way out. What a legend.
He escaped because he’s Optimus Prime, simple as that.
I only just realized that Shatter + Dropkick were also in the scene (0:05)
I wasn’t bothered by that scene as I’m more focused on the character development in Bumblebee. Yes, I wanted to see more of it, but only in another Transformers movie or spin-off.
Hoping Bee & Mirage can get some screentime & attention in the next movies, cuz Bee kinda died!!
& kinda agree!
Another great video bro good to see the channel doing well as I haven’t watched it in a while
Thank you for explaining this, I’ve always wondered this for so long, now my thoughts are put to rest
Nice video as always Theorymus!
I always wondered this, thanks for the explaination!
Thank you for making this video because this has been on my mind for a very long time
Glad I could help!
I really do hope we get to see the rest of the transformers in the sequel
Dude I was so excited when you uploaded
Thank you for these videos Theorymus, I love you!!!❤❤❤❤
Cool video! I really enjoyed!😃
Such a good video as ALWAYS
I cannot belive you have come this far
Keep up the good work Theorymus
If I’m ever having a bad day and Theorymus uploads, then everything will be just a bit better :)
Awesome Job!🌟👏
Wonderful explaining. You did amazing counting the Decepticons in that flashback scene of Bumblebee.
I think he took forever to count
@@jamsworldtv2621 I wouldn’t have the patience for it lol 😂
Great video!
Bro you are really pumping these out
Good video man
Glad you enjoyed
Great explanation and thanks for this awesome theory Theorymus
No problem!
I was wondering that since I watched it. Bit of a shame he couldn't retrieve his ion blaster
It would've been cool if Megatron was present during the fall of Cybertron.
Sadly we didn't see he's own g1 design
Didnt he was shockwave(or starcream)gun ?
Since he could transform like he did in g1
Didn't Travis Knight want Megs in the movie, but he couldn't add him in? & I saw on another Theorymus vid, a comment who said basically, iirc, maybe Megs was attacking the Autobot Capitol, the one Arcee was talking abt when she said "I lost contact with the Capitol!". I think that sounds very believable & realistic story-wise in BBM & RotB. & I REALLY hope we see Megs in his FULL G1-esque glory in TF3 (after TF2/RotB)!!!
Nice Theory man
Today is my first day of school so I couldn't watch this when it popped up, but now it's lunch time and I can watch this
Is this your first dedicated video for a theory on this new trilogy? Or am I missing something? This will be another banger video!
Something interesting I discovered in Bumblebee. There are 13 Autobots in the movie. Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Ironhide, Brawn, Arcee, Cliffjumper, Wheeljack and 5 others that you glance but are nearly impossible to tell who they are.
Very interesting indeed! Wonder who those remaining 5 could/would be!
& do you think its possible that an Autobot took command on Cybertron while Optimus & the others fled to Earth? I think its possible, I'm thinking either Ultra Magnus or Elita-1 took command, or maybe both!?
What I wanna know, is what the heck happened to Sam Witickey after Dark Of The Moon!
But still, thank you for breaking this down for me to understand how he escaped, your my favorite Transformers YT channel
Ty for telling me I got so confused during that part
Amazing Bro :D
Good job
Ngl, that intro is epic, no joke
I don't know how you post 3 video in a span of a week, but great video BTW
I bet Optimus beat up many Decepticons, killed some (the nameless Seekers, ofc), & failed against some, like Shockwave, Soundwave, Starscream, etc, made an opening, then transformed, drove off to another Autobot base, then escaped in a pod to Earth. Fast forward a tiny bit to the ending of BBM, 7 yrs later in RotB, & now we're waiting for whats next for the 3rd movie!
& GREAT vid Theorymus!! Loved it! Keep up the great work!! Thx for this VERY in-depth & amazing vid! 'Til all are One!!
& Theorymus, could you do a theory on if Optimus has the Matrix of Leadership in this new rebooted continuity (BBM & RotB, ofc), I think he does cuz it'd makes sense & I could easily imagine him getting it at some point before BBM's Cybertron scene. & Considering that the Great War is implied to have started not too long ago cuz of the fact the Decepticons call the Autobots a resistance & the Autobots call themselves a resistance, too, so it would just make sense for the War to start abt 1 millon yrs, more or less, before BBM's Cybertron scene, instead of abt 4 or more million yrs. & Optimus could've easily gotten the Matrix at some point between the beginning of the War & BBM's Cybertron scene. & I think it'd be really cool for Optimus to already have had the Matrix for a little while & uses it to defeat Unicron in TF4/last movie in RotB's Unicron Trilogy. Mainly considering the fact that the Matrix is the only thing that can stop Unicron in G1 & probably other continuities as well! It'd be cool for you too make a vid abt it!
Like if you agree!
Now do a theory about why wheel jack change his name and appearance
Thank you for explaining this, I’ve always wondered this originally, I just thought “he’s Optimus the freaking prime”
I personally think Optimus prime fought as much as he could, but lost the fight and got captured. But eventually he escaped sometime after and fled to earth
TFI Creations beat you to it, dude.
I’ve been wanting to know this question for years and thanks to we do now
Weridly aburpt, but makes sense, good video man
I made a short fan film explaining my own opinion on how it happened. I had it stated he didn’t win that battle and was captured. He later escaped and took a personal-secret escape pod
I like to believe that right as the scene ends the Matrix does some super saiyan type shit and paralyses all the decepticons around him
I love how at 2:40, they throw in the nod to Primes attack on Autobot City
can you do a video listing and showing all the identifiable transformers in the scenes of cybertrons fall?
Despite this ROTB Optimus and Bayverse Optimus are different, the two have one thing in common... that being "Prime Rage", the one thing we saw in Dark of the Moon...
the video was fun and very interesting.
Agree was also curious how prime has escaped 👍
"Prime is coming here" oh he is so shocked and and how his voice quivers 😂😂
Great vid. Something that bothered me after watching Rise of the beasts is why in the name of primus did they change wheeljack sooooo bad. I honestly forgot he had a brief appearance in bumblebee until seeing him in this vid and i remembered he had his G-1 form so like the heck?!
This Was An Amazing Video! This was a Question I've Always Wondered and Just Imagining Optimus using his Sword and Hand Cannon Fighting Against 64 Decepticons
Decepticons: We have you surrounded!
Optimus Prime: All I’m surrounded by is fear, and dead men.
I watch your video like 5 times don’t know why
Idk if someone already commented this before. But if there’s gonna be a what if scenario. What if in 2007 Transformers if Arcee did get to be part of the movie without being cut and remade in the second movie as Arcee twins? How would her role be like if a way of saving Jazz’s life from Megatron or what? I wondered if the writers did made a script about it but cut it and rewrite it?
Hey man could you do a video on how transformers see where they are going/driving when they are in their vehicle mode?
I've been watching your vids for 5 months
I always thought about how Optimus prime survived, yet I would have never guessed that
2:24 the scourge scene was personal af
Hey theorymus I just thought of when you said he could have made it to another base what if when Optimus made it to the other autobot base there could have been other autobots there along with mirage and stratosphere so that opens a lot a characters that can be in the new rebooted timeline 😃
In my headcanon Optimus didn't have any extra weapons on him at the time and boxed his way through all 46 Deceptions
Prime be like:
“46 of you, 1 of me…I like those odds.”
That a pretty cool theory
Looking like a true surviver.
feeling like a little kid
I’m still standing
Yeah yeah yeah
HISHE talked about this topic in their Bumblebee video pretty funny too🤣😭
This would be a great prequel movie to bumble bee and actually show Megatron and people will finally know it’s a reboot since he wouldn’t be frozen
Considering we can see presumably pods fly from multiple points of origin, it’s reasonable to assume there were more pod bays with leftover pods or unused as that front got wiped out
ngl, wish they couldve provided more info on how he managed to escape. My theory is that
1) Optimus was indeed captured and sent to Kaon as per Megatron's request, my idea of how he escaped is by taking reference of the Kaon Prison chapter in the War for Cybertron game.
He possibly escaped Cybertron by either sabotaging/destroying a Decepticon outpost within Kaon and took an escape pod to cover his getaway. A possible reason that Shatter and Dropkick seem afraid of Optimus coming to Earth is due to their belief that he escaped Kaon and took down an outpost all by himself.
2) He escaped Kaon then proceeded to link up to Iacon or one of the Autobot bases
I think the reason Shatter and Dropkick were afraid because of the beating Prime gave em
Can you do a theory of what happend to sam witwicky btw loves your videos
I just assumed he got captured, but then escaped, cuz as beast as movie optimus always is, I don't believe he can take on 50 decepticons at the same time
And also even though we don't see Megatron it's fair to assume he would show up in the encounter eventually and I find it hard to believe that he'll be able to kill 50 Decepticons including Shockwave and many other strong Heavy Hitters and then surviving Megatron.
Nice😎😎
I hope a new movie can breifly go back to this scene, it would be neat if Elita One and the other autobots saved one last escape pod for him or something to explain how he's on Earth with the others but she seemingly isnt.
Hey theorymus I’m a huge fan and I’m also a CZcamsr covering the same fact or topic just an fyi I wanna know if it’s okay if I use your photo of Optimus surrounded with the numbers of deceptions just thought I’d ask because imma be adding additional info
2:30 actually his ion blaster was supposed to appear in transformers rise of the beast sadly and appeared in the deleted scenes It appeared on his truck mode plus I have three more things to back it up the toys the first one the transformers ROTB mainline voyager class Optimus prime also the transformers ROTB Robeson RC Optimus prime He had all of his weapons that appeared in the movie plus his classic ion blaster and there is a new coming role play model TF ROTB Optimus prime T7 ion blaster coming out so it still counts It’s still with him .
In my headcanon, the Wreckers (Kup, Impactor, Springer, Broadside, Rack'Ruin, Whirl, Sandstorm) pulled up, and got him and some leftover bots from the capitol (Iacon, and where Megs probably was). That way, it could open up to a Bad Batch styled Wreckers tv show, with maybe a rewritten last stand of the wreckers as an ending.
Will you do a video like where were the predacons in transformers rise of the beast ?
Easy...... cybertron
You can also see in the bumblebee movie in that one shot of bumblebee escaping, multiple other pods are exiting the planet so that further straightens the old theory
Your theory sounds right. It sounds right because when Bumblebee was in space, we can see more pods but in different locations, not in the same area where Bumblebee is
My theory is there is another autobot who still in Cybertron when Optimus is surrounded by decepticons (i personally think Metroplex/Omega Supreme help him) and i think there are some autobots who sacrifice themself to made Optimus escape Cybertron
Theorymus, can you please please do an iceberg video on the Transformers live action movies?
It's something I definitely have planned
@@Theorymus Ok that's good! 😁
Hey man, don’t mind doing a vid on why Optimus still keeps his Peterbilt 379 parts when he scanned a Marmon truck as his evasion mode?
your videos are just the bast
