Transformers One
Warning ! This post carry SPOILERS for Transformers OneA potential continuation toTransformersOnecan finally ransom one of the most ill-treat Autobots in the live - action picture . In the moving-picture show , the live - action Cybertronian wedge led by Optimus Prime typically bear some degree of resemblance to their first - genesis counterparts , even if their alt forms are different with more modernistic fomite scans . However , the multiple ocular changes that have been made to one Autobot in special are quite egregious , and his singular design has rarely been shown in the motion-picture show .
In the recent animated movieTransformersOne , all the Autobots and Decepticons very much resemble their G1 designsas they were depicted in the original animated series of the eighties . This includes Wheeljack , the future mechanic and Autobot inventor who possess singular pass fins that light up when he lecture or else of a more traditional mouth . However , Wheeljack ’s iconic visual invention has seldom been hear in the previous live - actionTransformersmovies , something succeeding animated movies can hopefully correct .
Wheeljack Has Rarely Looked Good In The Live-Action Transformers Movies
Inventive, But Certainly Not Accurate By Any Means
look for to raise the scientist esthetical , the two most prevalent live - military action designs for Wheeljack are very similar and as disappointing . First come out in 2011’sTransformers : Dark of the Moon , the first loop of Wheeljack aka Que was depicted as an older Autobot who very much calculate like an senior tinkerer with glasses and wispy wires resembling white whisker ( he was also vocalize by George Coe ) . However , this was nothing like the franchise ’s preexisting depictions of Wheeljack , and this version did n’t have the iconic head Little Phoebe either .
In the same vein , the new Wheeljack excogitation that debut in 2023’sTransformers : Rise of the Beastsand its new canon does not resemble the original Wheeljack either . Voiced byTed Lasso’sCristo Fernandez , this edition of Wheeljack is a full nerd with chicken feed and seat belt resemble suspenders . There is a single shot inRise of the Beasts’final battle where two small question fins pop out of either side of Wheeljack ’s head , presumably as a nod to his authoritative G1 depiction . However , they ’re passing easy to lose , and their purpose is never destine . After all , Rise of the Beasts’Wheeljack did have a distinctive oral fissure .
Wheeljack’s Most Unique Feature Is WHY He’s So Popular
So Why Are The Live-Action Movies Afraid Of It?
These two underwhelming depiction are even more thwarting when 2018’sBumblebeeis take into bill , having been resign between the two movies with its own portrayal of Wheeljack . Briefly feature in a cameo roleduring the picture ’s Cybertron battle sequences among other G1 - inspired Transformers , Wheeljack does indeed have his head fins that light up when he talks . Directly inspired by his G1 trend , this live - activity version of Wheeljack was perfect and looked unbelievable … only for the next pic , Rise of the Beasts , to entirely neglect it and refashion the entire visual conception ( and not for the good ) .
Transformers One explores Optimus Prime and Megatron ’s stock , and the movie ’s end place up the future for Cybertron , Autobots , and Decepticons .
It ’s downright bilk as to why the live - actionTransformersmovies have ostensibly been so shy of Wheeljack ’s classic G1 appearance . After all , it ’s such a unambiguously cool part of his design , and a main reason for his popularity , not unlike Soundwave ’s popularitycoming from his uniquely monotone representative compared to other Cybertronians and his minicon minion that eject from his chest . Keeping that in idea , it does seem as thoughTransformers Onehas finally created the perfect opportunity for Wheeljack to lastly be redeemed and pick up the respect he ’s long been due when it comes to his visual invention .
A Transformers One Sequel Can Succeed With Wheeljack Where The Live-Action Movies Failed
Finally, A Visually Faithful Version Of The Iconic Autobot
In 2024’sTransformers One , Wheeljack looks perfect and exactly the way he always should have in the live - actionTransformersmovies . While he does n’t have a primary function in the prequel , Wheeljack was featured more than once throughout the revivify movie , Graeco-Roman Christ Within - up head fins and all . To that end , the Bob Hope would be that this initial debut is just the beginning for Wheeljack . Having received his transformation sprocket and bring together the Autobots by the movie ’s end , one could wait that Wheeljack would serve asa cardinal member of Optimus Prime ’s forces in a futureTransformers Onesequel(which will hopefully be made following the first movie ’s very positive reception ) .
Transformers Oneis now play in dramatic art and useable on digital .
