Alternative view: this is the best Transformers movie to date. I still have it on Jellyfin and watch it once in a while. Spent my whole childhood watching this tape over and over. I would still recommend it today.
I haven’t gone back to watch the TV show, but I remember the TV show being much after the movie. Early Transformers show seasons were very basic and over time the stories got more mature and improved.
This movie is one of my first core memories. I distinctly remember standing on the movie theater seats cheering with my brother when they played the “The Touch” and my mom smacking us and telling us to sit down.
I also remember Optimus Prime cussing in that movie (“damn”?) and being shocked - but now I can’t find it when searching. So maybe I made that part up?

The tv show was way before the movie though…?
First 2 seasons were before the movie, 3 and 4 were after.

It happened when Ultra Magnus was trying to open the Matrix.
