The Transformers: The Movie Page #2

Synopsis: This theatrical movie based on the television series (which was also based on a popular multiform robot toyline) did not go over very well at the box office. The movie takes place in 2005, twenty years after the television series, and chronicles the efforts of the heroic Autobots to defend their homeworld Cybertron from the evil Decepticons. Both factions are seething with anger, and that hatred has blinded them to a hideous menace headed their way. That hideous menace is the colossal planet known as Unicron, who has been ready to consume anything that stands in its way. The only thing that can stop Unicron is the Autobot Matrix of Leadership, which is possessed by the Autobots and which the Decepticons, through Unicron's orders, plan to take away from them.

never make it to Cybertron!

Fellow decepticons!

Astrotrain has requested

that we lighten our burden.

In that case I say it is

survival of the fittest.

Do I hear a second on that?

Aye!

And against?

Nay!

The ayes have it!

- Get! Make room for others!

- Don't!

Oh, how it pains me to do this.

Wait...

I still function.

Wanna bet?

Starscream!

Well, as Megatron has,

how shall we say, departed,

I nominate myself

as the new leader.

Wait, the constructicons

formed Devastator,

the most powerful robot.

We should rule!

Soundwave superior.

Constructicons inferior.

Who are you calling inferior?!

Nobody would follow an

uncharismatic bore like you!

Hey, nobody calls

Soundwave uncrassimatic!

Yeah, let's kick tailgate!

Constructicons unite!

No way!

Welcome, Megatron.

Who... who said that?

I... am Unicron.

Show yourself.

I have summoned you here

for a purpose.

Nobody summons Megatron.

Then it pleases me

to be the first.

State your business.

This is my command.

You are to destroy the

autobot matrix of leadership.

It is the one thing,

the only thing,

that can stand in my way.

You have nothing to fear.

I have already crushed Optimus

Prime with my bare hands.

You exaggerate.

The point is, he's dead.

And the matrix died with him.

No, the point is you are a fool.

The matrix has been passed

to their new leader,

Ultra Magnus.

- Destroy it for me.

- Why should I?

What's in it for me?

Your bargaining posture

is highly dubious.

Very well, I will

provide you with a new body

and new troops to command.

- And?

- And nothing!

You belong to me now.

I belong to nobody!

Perhaps I misjudged you.

Proceed...

on your way to oblivion.

Ah! No! No!

I accept your terms! I accept!

Ah!

Excellent.

Behold... Galvatron!

And these shall be your minions.

Scourge, the tracker.

And his huntsmen-- the sweeps.

Cyclonus

the warrior and his armada.

And this shall be your ship.

Now go.

Destroy the autobot matrix.

I will rip open Ultra Magnus

and every other autobot

until the matrix

has been destroyed.

To Cybertron!

Destroy the matrix.

Get on with the ceremony!

My fellow decepticons

as your new leader, I...

who disrupts my coronation?!

"Coronation", Starscream?

This is bad comedy.

Megatron? Is that you?

Here's a hint!

Will anyone else

attempt to fill his shoes?

What did he say his name was?

Galvatron!

Long live Galvatron!

Galvatron!

Where'd that come from?

Who cares? I'm more worried

about where it's going!

Talk to me, Earth,

we got a situation out here!

Roger me, wilco me, anything!

Hello, hello, Earth!

I'm picking up a faint signal.

This is Jazz. A ginormous,

weird-looking planet

just showed up

in the suburbs of Cybertron.

And it's

attacking Moonbase One!

Jazz! Cliffjumper!

Got to blast free, if we can!

Ignition and... hit it!

Jazz, we're not getting away!

This is Spike and Bumblebee

up here on Moonbase Two.

This thing... this monster planet

just ripped

the first moon to shreds

and it's heading this way!

We'll try and slow it down.

But you'd better get here fast

because we're not gonna...

dad!

Bumblebee,

activate the explosives!

If this doesn't stop it,

nothing will.

The explosives are activated,

let's get out of here!

Hurry!

It's gonna blow!

- Hooray! We've done it!

- We did it!

Way to go!

- Look!

- It isn't even dented.

Oh, sh*t,

what are we gonna do now?

We're being

sucked into it!

How dare Unicron? Cybertron

and all its moons belong to me!

Remember, we belong to him.

I belong to nobody!

I will obey... Unicron.

Decepticons, to Earth!

Autobots, prepare to

board the shuttles.

This new menace

is more dangerous

than all the decepticons

put together.

Somehow we must destroy it

before it devours Cybertron.

But what about my dad?

He's on the moon between that

monster planet and Cybertron.

Daniel, we'll do everything

we can for Spike.

And what are we gonna do

when we get there?

If that thing crunches moons

it'll make short work of us.

Maybe the matrix can stop it.

You're right, it can!

What do you know about it, lad?

I just got this feeling.

Look!

To the shuttles!

I, Galvatron, will crush you

just as Megatron crushed Prime!

And you'll die trying,

just like Megatron.

Uh! Autobot scrap!

Do you want me

to gut Ultra Magnus?

There are plenty of autobots

for you. Ultra Magnus is mine!

Stay close to me, Daniel!

And you better stay close to me!

No, you'd better

stay close to me.

Nice dino, good dino,

sweet dino,

won't you step into

the nice spaceship for Blurr?

Pretty, pretty please? Nice

dino, good dino, sweet dino!

Me Grimlock, not nice dino!

Me bash brains!

Blurr, get the dinobots

in the shuttle!

I'm trying to get them

into the shuttle

cos I know we can't

launch the shuttle

until I get them

into the shuttle

but they're impossible,

impossible, impossible!

OK, forget it.

Kup, Hotrod, you guys

get the dinobots aboard

and get out of here.

Come on, you big bozo,

get in the shuttle!

This reminds me

of the battle on alpha 9.

The petrorabbits were...

Grimlock, get your noodle

out of my face!

Me Grimlock

love Kup's war stories!

You're living one now.

Engage the boosters,

for Cybertron's sake!

Tell Grimlock about

petro-rabbits again.

I'll give you petro-rabbits!

Contact!

Looks like we're

shipmates, squirt!

All right!

But if you get spacesick

you're gonna walk home!

Hurry!

Wait, Ultra Magnus!

Arcee's still out there!

Jump!

Thanks.

That was close.

Believe it or not,

this is the fun part.

Congratulations,

autobots, we've lost them,

so rest while you can.

Yep, I remember,

the dust was so thick on beta 4

you had to use windshield wipers

on your optic sensors.

Me Grimlock

know all about wipers!

Want to hear good part of story!

Good part, Kup,

tell Swoop good part.

OK, OK.

Well, the dust was really thick,

and then this gigantic icthyac

came tromping and stomping

down the mountain,

flames spewing out

of its nostrils,

and I thought for sure...

hey, Kup, don't you think we

have better things to do now

than tell old stories?

Like what?

Like maybe figure out

how we're gonna

rescue our friends

and then save Cybertron.

No! Tell story!

- Shh!

- Quiet!

We want to hear story!

- Grr!

- Time-out! Time-out! Time-out!

They're closing on us.

Yep, like the shrikebats

of Dromedon.

- How'd you beat them?

- I'm trying to remember.

There were an awful lot

of casualties that day.

Oh, yeah--

we inverted polarities!

They're coming back!

All right, we survived that!

Yeah, but will we survive this?

Cyclonus,

transform and attack.

I can't control it!

We're gonna crash!

Kup and Hotrod just bought it.

I can't deal with that now.

Face it, Magnus,

the decepticons are gonna dog us

until they see us dead!

Then that's exactly

what they're gonna see.

Prepare for

emergency separation.

- That's too dangerous!

- What choice do we have?

The autobots

have been terminated.
