The Beasts
Directed by Rodrigo Sorogoyen
Antoine and Olga, a French couple, have been living in a small village in Galicia for a long time. They practice eco-responsible agriculture and restore abandoned houses to facilitate repopulation. Everything should be idyllic except for their opposition to a wind turbine project that creates a serious conflict with their neighbors. The tension will rise to the point of irreparability.

Couldn't scream, couldn't call for help. My mom says I watched a movie called Bless the Beasts & Children on there and that started it?

neutral · AI labelView post →Rise of the Beasts is a super fun movie and Top 3 for theatrical Transformers films.
positive · AI labelView post →Rise of the Beasts had the right idea with the "we're not arrogant enough to take credit for human ingenuity" line. It was a movie about intersectionality. But nah give us more MAGA military circlejerk slop where a U.S. soldier deals more damage to Decepticons than Optimus Prime.
negative · AI labelView post →Rewatched Rise of the Beasts tonight. Trying to combine the heart of Bumblebee with the bombast of Bay, and falling just short of both. But still a solid effort, and it's REMARKABLE how good Mirage is considering he should be the most annoying thing in the film.
neutral · AI labelView post →Going to watch Rise of the Beasts later on as part of my film Sunday. This scene is still my favourite because that music...ohhh that music gives me goosebumps in a good way
neutral · AI labelView post →Every Transformers movie minus Rise Of The Beasts has an insane US Military presence in it. They were all GI Joe crossovers!
neutral · AI labelView post →Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is the first live action Transformers film to not be helmed by visual effects studio "Industrial Light and Magic." The studio would return to Transformers with "Transformers One." #Transformers
neutral · AI labelView post →Rise of the Beasts is not worse than any of Bay’s movies, and I’m tired of people saying it’s worthless because it doesn’t have “aura,” or whatever dipshit praise you want to give. Rise of the Beasts isn’t even a particularly great movie, but it is much better than any Bay movie.

Since the 1976 Olympics, it has been synonymous with Nadia Comăneci. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ttc9...

'BEE is a photocopy of IRON GIANT, but if you're going to rip something off, you might as well steal from the best. It was a cool little Movie all things considered, and
neutral · AI labelView post →One of my films of the year. The Beloved starring Javier Bardem and Victoria Luengo as father and estranged daughter who attempt to reconcile during a film shoot. Rodrigo Sorogoyan follows up The Beasts with a savage family tale. Bardem is utterly brutal as only vulnerable men are.
neutral · AI labelView post →They… couldn’t even get it to generate Bayverse Optimus. That design is Rise of the Beasts Prime. A film where the human leads were a Hispanic man and Black woman. Also, Peter Cullen was Canadian. Also, Autobots are not American. They’re literally illegal aliens. These people have no literacy
neutral · AI labelView post →What sucks is that Rise of the Beasts was probably the best live-action Transformers movie we’ve gotten, but it underperformed, so now we’re going back to Michael Bay in hopes that it’ll make America 2007 again, or whatever.
positive · AI labelView post →Jason Fuchs (‘IT: WELCOME TO DERRY’) is in talks to write new ‘TRANSFORMERS’ movie. • Michael Bay will produce • Steven Spielberg will executive produce The film will continue story after 2023’s ‘TRANSFORMERS: RISE OF THE BEASTS’ #Transformers #JasonFuchs #MichaelBay
neutral · AI labelView post →I spent the afternoon of my birthday building the new Champion Class Bumblebee Movie Bumblebee, who as you might expect is quite the upgrade from his previous Rise of the Beasts Classic Class kit! He looks tremendous, was very fun to build, and has a pretty solid range of articulation - Good stuff!
neutral · AI labelView post →I'm thankful for the GI Joe x Transformers movie being scrapped to hell (like we really needed any more military propaganda) But Bay making a new Transformers film feels like a monkey paw curling. I already miss the rebootverse even if Rise of The Beasts was messy.
neutral · AI labelView post →László Horányi (1951-) was chosen as a quick replacement, dubbing Optimus in the film Rise of the Beasts and the rest of the EarthSpark cartoon. Undeniably a great actor, but with his softer, lighter voice compared to Cullen or Szélyes, this recasting has been hard to swallow.
neutral · AI labelView post →Starting with Revenge of the Fallen, all movies were shown in theaters dubbed. Due to Kristóf's failing health, the great Imre Szélyes (1944-2023) took over as the movie incarnation of Optimus until 2018's Bumblebee. He passed away mere weeks before Rise of the Beasts was dubbed.

Getting one into a movie as a minor scene prop would be the next evolution, lol! Do I think I'd be successful? Not really. Would trying be fun? Yeah, lol.

positive · AI labelView post →But there aren't many scenes focusing on the Maximals... in a film called "Rise of the Beasts". It makes you wish there was a prequel about them, until the arrival of Unicron and Scourge and the fall of their homeworld.
neutral · AI labelView post →264) Transformers: Rise of the Beasts After going through so much shit with the Bayformer films I'm rlly happy to say that I full on like a Transformers film besides One. It's nothing groundbreaking but the action is rlly fun and the characters were enjoyable. Shoutout to that ending btw wtf lol?
positive · AI labelView post →THE BEASTS! An atmospheric Spanish true-crime thriller set in the Castilian countryside, all about an irreconcilable feud between two eco-farmers & their suspicious neighbors. Bleak, slow-burning, tragic, all that good stuff. More here: https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/the-beasts-movie-review-2023
positive · AI labelView post →Add "Between My Legs" to a movie title. Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Between My Legs
neutral · AI labelView post →Scourge (Transformers: Rise of the Beasts) I feel he suffers from a generic "bland movie villain" syndrome. He serves as a stooge to Unicron, brutally murders beloved characters like Airazor and Bumblebee, and relies heavily on a digitized voice filter that makes his storyarc feel flat.
neutral · AI labelView post →I remember only going to see Rise of the Beasts when I was younger because the Maximals were in the movie and they looked so cool to me! I also remember nearly falling asleep because I swear to God shit barely happens and the Maximals don't show up until the movie's almost over.

positive · AI labelView post →If I had a hot take, it would be Rise of the Beasts is just like the 86 movie. Big and stupid and selling toys, yet lots of fun and cool stuff IMO
positive · AI labelView post →Rise of The Beasts isn't that bad of a film as people make it out to be, and I assume a lot of people think its bad because their opinions were influenced by YouTube reviewers.
positive · AI labelView post →His last role as Optimus Prime was in the live action Transformers: Rise of the Beasts film which I enjoyed very much. A seriously great performance as Prime yet again.
positive · AI labelView post →Last I checked they were still doing that crossover. Though it's gonna be tough recasting Optimus unless they get Gary Chalk. But that aside, good to see Rise of the Beasts is on Pluto TV. Because that movie and Bumblebee were steps in the right direction for the movies.

This was released exclusively in Japan alongside a magazine about the film, and while clear plastic scares some I'm very happy to get another spin on this fun mold!

neutral · AI labelView post →Last night, I again watched Bless the Beasts and Children. It was the first film I ever cried at (I was 9 or 10 at the time, so I was a few years younger than the kids in the film). It's still a wonderful and sometimes painful film to watch. #FilmBluesky
neutral · AI labelView post →'Minuke' is a fantastic story. You can see its influence on the Beasts episode 'Special Offer' and it is basically the plot for the film Poltergeist. I wonder if Spielberg ever read it?
neutral · AI labelView post →"Bless the Beasts and Children" is one of my favorites. There was a movie, I believe with Billy Mummy, that I used to watch as a child.
neutral · AI labelView post →Not the movie itself, but the trailer for Transformers: Rise of the Beasts opens with a big "1994" across the screen, while playing Ruff Ryders Anthem, which was released in 1998. Then the movie (set in June 94) had TLC's Waterfalls (Nov 94), Biggie's Hypnotize (1997), and the 1995 Wu-Tang logo.

negative · AI labelView post →Paramount has officially cancelled the live-action Transformers and G.I. Joe crossover movie originally teased in 2023's Rise of the Beasts. The studio is decoupling the two franchises to let them move forward independently, pivoting to a standalone G.I. Joe reboot directed by Danny McBride and star
neutral · AI labelView post →I can see why. Which made the post credits scene on Rise Of The Beasts to be completely pointless now. Also, they just can't replace Peter with another actor on a supposed continuation after his final live action film role as Optimus.
