De Laurentiis Entertainment Group (DEG) released The Transformers: The Movie to theaters on August 8, 1986. Nelson Shin directs the film which stars Orson Welles, Robert Stack, and Leonard Nimoy. The Transformers: The Movie Film Synopsis Transformers: The Movie is a timeless tale of redemption, coming of age, and giant robots. Giant robots that beat the metallic snot out of each other. The movie takes place in the distant future of 2005. It’s a carefree future where children use hover-boards and cassette tapes, which have replaced the vastly inferior MP3s. The movie opens with Unicron, a metallic, space-anus, with the thundering voice of Orson Wells, munching on random worlds. Why? It may have something to do with his missing sled being stolen by that environmental do-gooder, Captain Planet. After a bitchin’ opening credit montage, the movie cuts to the good Autobots on their spaceship. They are planning a counter-strike on the evil Decepticons. Little do the Autobots’ know, but the Decepticons witness their entire planning session. So what if they witness it in space, and through vacuum-proof glass with perfect audio and video.   (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Disclaimer This podcast is for entertainment and information purposes only.
