Optimus Prime (War for Cybertron trilogy)

Optimus Prime is the main protagonist of the Transformers franchise. Sadly, he was butchered badly in Netflix's Transformers: War For Cybertron Trilogy. He is voiced by Jake Foushee, who also voiced Nemesis Prime in the same series

Why He's No Prime

 * 1) For starters, this version of Optimus Prime can´t make up his mind about anything.
 * 2) Prime went from a Noble, Selfless, and Comptent leader into an Egotistical, Selfish, Incomptent leader.
 * 3) He is a TERRIBLE Leader. Even Unicron Trilogy Optimus at his dumbest was still a good leader.
 * 4) He never listens to his fellow Autobots, even to his lover Elita-1.
 * 5) He is extremely egotistical, as he constantly believes he is in the right and as said earlier, never listens to the other Autobots.
 * 6) He even willingly leaves some of his Allies, including Elita, to die on Cybertron, which was ultimately for nothing.
 * 7) He ultimately dooms Cybertron by sending the AllSpark into space.
 * 8) We are supposed to root for Prime and root against Megatron, but his actions make him come off as an incomptent, delusional egotist and Megatron being a responsible, honorable leader. In fact, Megatron even says to Elita that she'd be a better leader than Prime. Long story short, we are rooting against Prime and admiring Megatron instead of the other way around.
 * 9) He's the reason for Ultra Magnus's death and use as a host for Shockwave's virus.
 * 10) He got himself and the other Autobots, including Bumblebee, captured by Deseeus and in so putting himself and his allies he brought with him in danger when he arrogantly drove Deseeus insane.
 * 11) For some reason in the future after failing to retrieve the Allspark and got himself killed, he was reincarnated into Nemesis Prime and just committed treason by betraying the Autobots and every single Cybertronian and teams up with Galvatron who was Megatron and HIS archenemy. From this pointer, this makes him more worse as a villain than who he was.
 * 12) He was at first in denial that he wasn't even Nemesis which makes him a complete idiot of not realizing it until he met his future self in the final episode.
 * 13) Idiotic Move: As his future self, Nemesis Prime, he chose to destroy his past counterpart which is an idiotic movie because if he does kill his past self, he would have never existed which would cause a time paradox.
 * 14) His motive of "Cybertron needs freedom" is an extremely shallow excuse, as he dooms Cybertron, and gets many of his own troops killed, all of which are HIS fault.
 * 15) Jake Foushee tries too much trying to impersonate Peter Cullen.
 * 16) Due to all the actions above, he's better off being the antagonist than the protagonist.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) His designs look cool and somewhat faithful to G1.
 * 2) His toy versions are quite good.
 * 3) He does get some character development.
 * 4) He still genuinely cares about Elita-1 and many of his Autobots.

Trivia

 * 1) Nemesis Prime in the Trilogy is actually an evil Optimus Prime from a bad future where the AllSpark never returned to Cybertron
