    The reasons why Megatron is struggling in the forest battle is because he was just revived after two years of being dead and has a new body with completely different limbs, and Optimus was able to train for those two years.

      ​Most things aren’t g1, I like when they take things from the lore and evolve them in new ways, it’s what keeps the cycle going. The bayverse has only aesthetic contributions, Bay couldn’t care less about the actual characters because transformers in general was seen as lame to him unless he made it. This is also why the timeline doesn’t make sense along with plenty other things. The thought behind it was simply never there.

    I think Megatron was awesome in the first movie. It’s probably my favourite version of Megatron other than Prime in media. We see that he’s ferocious, hates humanity and wants world domination. We didn’t need to see his underlying motivations or his tactical prowess yet. The subsequent movies were when I think Megatron’s story should have been explored in depth, and where the movies missed out, but I don’t blame the first one for it

    Man, I really wish that they just did more with everything - The Fallen should have been his own Faction, an ancient evil that Megatron and Optimus had to deal with (you know LIKE THE FALLEN HAS ALWAYS BEEN)
    But I’d actually mention a concept I made for TLK which I think could have been a more interesting take on Galvatron, Nemesis Prime and everything -
    When Optimus went into space to find the “Creators” it was actually something else calling him. The movie starts on a robotic world only to find an Offline Optimus chained up on the planet. His eyes glow purple as the title screen comes up.
    Galvatron has been starting his newest plan, finding a way to make Cybertronium from Human machinery and creating a new army using his newest creation - The Insecticons. The Autobots on Earth seem to get overwhelmed when a starship shows up, helping them. It’s Hot Rod and a group of new Autobots. They say they are on a search for the Matrix. A long-lost relic. The Autobots claim Optimus has it, but he’s off-world. The Autobot ship decides to get some data to attempt to track Optimus. But as they do, Galvatron attacks again. The Earth Autobots fight him off only for Optimus to show up! Optimus brutally takes out one of the Insecticon generals, causing all of the clones of that General to fall apart. After Galvatron retreats, the Autobots talk to Optimus as he reveals that he took out the Creators, but now they had a new mission - to take over Earth! After the Humans can’t be trusted, they just needed to get rid of anyone in their way. The Autobots note that Optimus is suggesting something crazy and how brutal he was in the last battle… more than normal. Optimus gets frustrated and leaves, only for Galvatron to show up alone.
    Galvatron explains that he also noticed something wrong with Optimus, and offers an alliance to stop Optimus, as Galvatron has concluded that Earth is not viable for the Transformers, but is needed to rebuild Cybertron. The Autobots get convinced to work with him while keeping a very close eye on Galvatron. The forces go to confront Optimus.
    Optimus sees the Autobots working with the Decepticons and declares that “If they won’t follow him as their Prime, then they shall face him as their Nemesis!” And Nemesis Prime is born! The Autobots and Decepticons have a hard time against Nemesis Prime as he manages to send some kind of signal into space, but the tables turn as the Autobot ship arrives. It seems as if Optimus might be regaining his senses when Galvatron goes up behind him, delivering the final blow, killing Nemesis (Optimus) Prime. When the Autobots prepare to attack Galvatron over it, he explains that Nemesis could easily have been playing all of them, luring them into lowering their defenses and killing them. Galvatron gets away as the Autobots feel conflicted. But Hot Rod reveals the Matrix Optimus has was not the Matrix, but something with a dark energy similar to the Matrix.
    Post Credits: On the metal planet, we see two horns come from it as it catches a signal. “Nemesis Prime has been destroyed. But the remnants of Primus have been located… on Earth and the Matrix is still lost. Let Chaos Reign.” The camera zooms out to give a short reveal of Unicron.

    I like Bay Megatron. He certainly could have been better, but I think he is pretty cool. Great designs, a fantastic voice, and a cool presence, especially in the first movie. The first movie especially did him very well despite coming into the movie late and having limited screentime. He made an impression with that limited screentime and was quite intimidating. I liked him a lot of ROTF, with that also being my favorite design, but wish he had more to do in DOTM. I liked Galvatron in AOE despite him not doing much and I was disappointed by him in TLK. Has a great design, but does next to nothing, gets his ass kicked, and bossed around by Quintessa. Overall, he is a mixed bad and could and should have had more done with him, but I don't mind what we got and like most of it even if it is basic.
    I will say though, I wholeheartedly disagree on not liking him and The Fallen. I really dig that relationship, master and apprentice, it gave me Palpatine/Vader vibes and was very cool. Plus The Fallen never actually bosses around Megatron in the film. Yeah there was some of that in the comics but the movies never really acknowledged them, so The Fallen never actually gave Megatron an order or told him what to do anywhere in the movie. I don't know, I just dug that Megatron had a teacher, and he treated him with respect with his master seemingly treating him with respect as well. I just feel like if Darth Vader can be a badass while taking orders from the Emperor, then Megatron can be a badass having a teacher as well.

    I'm really hoping that Megatron will be built up more as a huge threat in the new movies. No Unicron, or quintessons, or sentinel or the fallen or some shit. Just Megatron, his goals, his manipulation, his lust for power, his harsh leadership, and his relationship with Optimus. More time dedicated to one villain for these new movies. I understand for rise of the beasts they're doing something different, but after all's said and done, they need to start building him up more. Not seeing him in Bumblebee was huge. They need to use that idea to their advantage. Make the character a ticking time bomb that will be devastating once it explodes.

    I agree that Bayverse-Megatron is disappointing in thousands of distinct ways, but I like him because the quintology does a great job of demonstrating that he gets twice as desperate and twice as pathetic with every film. That's why he negotiates with humans. That's why he answers to any command beyond his own. That's why he takes an earthly alternate mode despite his disgust for humanity. Megatron has one goal throughout all 5 films, and that's the resurrection of the cybertronian species, and he gets more and more desperate to achieve that goal with every movie and every decision. Not every Megatron needs to be the same, Bayverse-Megatron is distinct, and I like that.

    Megatron throughout the Bayverse (except tf1) was simply a side chick for the other main villains. I love the Bayverse for it's high octane action but they really don't know how to write character development.
    For the Galvatron I had the same issue but was even more pissed that he turned from Galvatron back to Megatron offscreen will it kill you to show a scene or flash back of quintessa meeting Galvatron where they can make a deal where he wants a new body and to restore cybertron meanwhile she requires his help to play fetch quest.

Megatron was the megalomaniac speach machine, his attitude againts Prime straight forward laid back personality matched well. In Beast Wars Optimus Primal and Megatron have the same dynamic, in the unicron trilogy too. That was the charm of it, because Optimus always returned Megatrons insults.

And at the end of revenge of the fallen he gets his face blown off by prime and that's why in dark of the moon he's weaker. Now I'm not saying this because I disagree with the video I'm just stating why he gets weaker. I'm sick of seeing Megatron be a pawn for someone else to use or just a bitch. He's Megatron, a destructive force, a living whirlwind of power, hatred and manipulation.

    Are we just going to forget that unicorn made Megatron is bitch slave in the first movie? :/
    When you think about it, that is literally what happened with him and the fallen, he was forced to be the way he is and was told lies by the first prime.
    And also no, you shouldn't flat out remove the fallen, because 1. He could easily be written better in the film.
    And 2. He actually had a decent goal in the comics about him simply caring for his world but unfortunately his view point is rather cruel as he viewed him and his brothers as superior beings to other alien races.
    And 3. They could have still had Megatron be multiplied by his name sake and once he realizes the lies or gets tired of listening to the fallen and his bullshit, he could have just betrayed him!
    So yeah we don't need to flat out throw him out.
    Same with the last knight Megatron because his design is just badass and he could easily just been be written
    Of course I prefer the 2007 Megatron because he actually felt like Megatron in that film. Plus his design just looks so good and fits this take of Megatron in that film.

      I would argue that you could more make the Fallen not tied to Megatron, but that he could have been more in the shadows manipulating both sides (and be more his own thing, no connections to the Decepticons) and have the factions have to unite to fight The Fallen as maybe the Fallen sees Cybertron’s now as weaklings that can’t accomplish either Protecting what they care about from what’s to come nor have the strength to destroy the threats to come and to rule the universe. But that’s more of an idea from the top of my head, and not having The Fallen connected to Unicron directly.
