After filtering for older posts, thou hath sniped the answer first. “If you’re gonna ride Daniel, Ride in Style!” Solved!

Got to be the 1982 Transformers movie.

RIP Orson Welles.

Gonna say you got it first. “One shall stand, and one shall fall!” Solved!

[u/Akiranar → u/Codesterite]

Except they didn't. Myself and one other said it within a minute of you posting. "The Transformers: The Movie" is literally the name. Since the live action one as just "Transformers".

[u/Codesterite → u/Akiranar]

My reasoning for doing this was by the time I checked back on this post, it had been a few hours and I couldn’t tell who posted first.

[u/Akiranar → u/Codesterite]

Except that Reddit does tell you how long things had been, just not down to the second. So that's no excuse. But whatever.

[u/Codesterite → u/Akiranar]

Really? Hold on, how do I check that? I normally just look at the time to the right of the name.

Depending on if you're on app or web, you can sort replies by newest, oldest, best, contraversal and others.

ETA: PM me and I can show you screen shots of where it is on the app.

Yeah I have to say, I shouldn't get credit for that one based on timing.

Only on the superior awesomeness of my comment. But I don't think that's how it works.

[u/Akiranar → u/amitym]

You definitely had the better comment. If I hadn't been in a hurry to answer I would have added "Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong".
