The Transformers: The Movie (1986) - Quotes

Galvatron: Come out, Autobot! We all must die sometime.

Hot Rod: [tackles Galvatron, who reverses and begins to strangle him] Not today, Galvatron!

Galvatron: I will crush you with my bare hands! DIE, AUTOBOT! First Prime, then Ultra Magnus, and now, you. It's a pity you Autobots die so easily, or I might have a sense a satisfaction now!

Optimus Prime: [offscreen] Arise, Rodimus Prime.

Rodimus Prime: [quietly] Optimus.

Galvatron: [tries to shoot Rodimus, but the laser blasts reflect off the energy field although the Matrix is dislodged to the side] No!

Rodimus: [grabs Galvatron and throws him away from Unicron as Galvatron screams loudly. picks up the Matrix and opens it; Unleashes the power of the Matrix which successfully destroys Unicron from the inside] This is the end of the road, Galvatron! Now, light our darkest hour...

Galvatron: [Unicron roars; tries - unsuccessfully - to open the Matrix] Unicron? Unicron! Answer me! See this: the Matrix! I now possess that which you most fear! You'll do my bidding, or taste my wrath!

Unicron: [begins to shake with anger; transforms into a giant robot. Galvatron watches in horror; flies off to attack Cybertron] You underestimate me, Galvatron. For a time... I considered sparing your wretched little planet Cybertron. But now, you shall witness...its dismemberment!

Galvatron: Nooooooooooooooo!!!

Starscream: [impatiently; Constructicons pause and restart the trumpeting until Starscream blows the trumpets away with his cannon. Astrotrain crowns him; gasps in shock as Cyclonus appears; Galvatron hops out of Cyclonus' cockpit and approaches the steps] Get on with the ceremony! My fellow Decepticons! As your new leader, I-- Who disrupts my coronation?!

Galvatron: Coronation", Starscream? This is bad comedy.

Starscream: Megatron? Is that you?

Galvatron: [assumes cannon mode and blasts Starscream, reducing him to ashes and crushes the crown] Here's a hint! Will anyone else attempt to fill his shoes?

Rumble: Eh, what'd he say his name was?

Galvatron: Galvatron.

Decepticons: Long live Galvatron!! Galvatron!!

Astrotrain: Jettison some weight, or I'll never make it to Cybertron!

Starscream: Fellow Decepticons! Astrotrain has requested that we lighten our burden.

Bonecrusher: In that case, I say it is survival of the fittest.

Starscream: Do I hear a second on that?

Undamaged Decepticons: Aye!

Starscream: And against?

Damaged Decepticons: [weakly] Nay.

Starscream: The Ayes have it!

Undamaged Decepticons: Get! Make room for others!

Damaged Decepticons: [The damaged Decepticons are tossed out of Astrotrain's door. Starscream carries the damaged Megatron to the door.] No, wait! Brothers, don't...!

Starscream: [smirks viciously] Oh, how it pains me to do this!

Megatron: Wait! I still function!

Starscream: [releases Megatron into deep space and closes the door.] Wanna bet?

Megatron: [his crumbled body disappears into space] STAAARSCREEAAAAM!!!

Starscream: [dusts off hands] Well, as Megatron has, how shall we say, "departed", I nominate myself as the new leader.

Scrapper: [Soundwave interrupts the Constructicons's bold protest in response] Wait! The Constructicons form Devastator! The most powerful robot! We should rule!

Soundwave: Soundwave: superior; Constructicons: inferior.

Bonecrusher: Who are you calling inferior?!

Hook: [''Soundwave's cassette minions eject in anger''] Nobody would follow an uncharismatic bore like you!

Rumble: Hey! Nobody calls Soundwave uncrassamatic!

Frenzy: Yeah, let's kick tailgate!

Scrapper: [The Constructicons attempt to merge into Devastator] Constructicons! Unite!!

Rumble and Frenzy: [Rumble and Frenzy immediately activates their pile-drive causing the surface to shake that prevented the Constructicons from merging. Now, the Decepticons begin fighting one another for leadership] No way!

Perceptor: I fear the wounds are... fatal.

Daniel: Prime, you can't die!

Optimus Prime: Do not grieve. Soon... I shall be one with the Matrix.

Hot Rod: Prime.

Optimus: Ultra Magnus... It is to you, old friend, that I shall pass the Matrix of Leadership... as it was passed to me.

Ultra Magnus: But, Prime, I'm, I'm just a soldier. I-- I'm not worthy.

Optimus: [opens chest compartment to reveal the Matrix. Awed, the Autobots take a step back; tries to give the Matrix to Ultra Magnus, but it falls until Hot Rod catches it. Hot Rod gives the Matrix to Ultra Magnus, right before Optimus dies] Nor was I. But one day...an Autobot shall rise from our ranks...and use the power of the Matrix...to light...our darkest hour. Until the day...'til all are one.

Brawn: Megatron! Decepticons!

Megatron: DIE, AUTOBOTS!

Megatron: [transforms back into robot mode] This was almost too easy, Starscream.

Starscream: Much easier, almighty Megatron, than attacking the real threat; the Autobots Moonbase.

Megatron: You're an idiot, Starscream. When we slip by their early warning systems in their own shuttle and attack Autobot City, the Autobots will be vanquished forever!

Ironhide: [clutches at Megatron's leg] No...!

Megatron: [kills Ironhide offscreen with a point-blank blast to the head from his fusion cannon] Such heroic nonsense.

Shockwave: Laserbeak returns, Megatron.

Megatron: [glances pointedly at Starscream, who looks up] Welcome, Laserbeak. Unlike some of my other warriors, you never fail me. Soundwave, play back Laserbeak's findings.

Soundwave: As you command, Megatron.

Optimus Prime: [on the playback] I want you to make a special run to Autobot City on Earth.

Ironhide: But, Prime—

Optimus: Listen, Ironhide. We don't have enough Energon cubes to power a full-scale assault. Ready the shuttle for launch! Now all we need is a little Energon, and a lot of luck.

Megatron: More than you imagine, Optimus Prime.
