In 1986, moviegoers were treated to a thrilling battle between the Autobots and Decepticons in
The Transformers: The Movie. Now, for one night only, you can relive that excitement and nostalgia as Fathom Events and Hasbro Studios are bringing the classic animated feature film back to theaters for a special one-night-only event.
The Transformers: The Movie event will be held on Thursday, September 27 at 7:00 p.m. local time. The movie has been remastered, restored from the original film elements, and transferred in HD. Additionally, the showing will include a special behind the making of the
Bumblebee movie, which slated to arrive in theaters later this year. It's a fitting inclusion considering the new live-action spinoff is set in the year 1987.
There will also be a brand-new interview with singer-songwriter Stan Bush as well as recent performances of the classic theme songs "
The Touch" and "
Dare." All in all, this seems to be the perfect event for all
Transformers fans, old and new.
The AUTOBOTS, led by the heroic OPTIMUS PRIME, prepare to make a daring attempt to retake their planet from the evil forces of MEGATRON and the DECEPTICONS. Unknown to both sides, a menacing force is heading their way – UNICRON. The only hope of stopping UNICRON lies within the Matrix of Leadership and the AUTOBOT who can rise up and use its power to light their darkest hour. Will the AUTOBOTS be able to save their native planet from destruction or will the DECEPTICONS reign supreme?

The Transformers: The Movie event will go on sale on Friday, August 3, and will be available at the
