About

Shut Up Grandma, Drink Your Prune Juice! is a series of remix videos based on a scene from the 2007 live-action film Transformers.

Origin

In the 2007 Michael Bay's comics-based blockbuster Transformers, American actor/comedian Anthony Anderson plays the role of expert hacker Glen Whitmann, delivering many one-liners over the course of the movie.

In one scene, Maggie Madsen (Rachael Taylor) visits Glen. Glen's grandmother shouts from another room to see who has stopped by, to which he responds "SHUT UP GRANDMA!" then "Grandmama drink your prune juice!"

The scene has become a popular source material used in a number of YouTube Poops and Garry's Mod videos.
