The next trilogy can be set in the same universe. Let the new director kill off all of the old characters and bring on Rodimus and Ultra Magnus and galvatron. It could totally work.

You know what I liked about G1?

It was original and not a rehash of stuff done 25 years ago.

I take it you haven't experienced the trauma of our hero Optimus Prime being killed off permanently in the original movie (until Season 3's The Return of Optimus Prime that is). He is not Kenny from South Park you know

Lately he kinda is... ever since 1986 he's died in almost every continuity. When can we have an official continuity where Prime lives the whole time?

Never.

He lived through Robots in Disguise, at least.

Nah, I think we could do better than that...

He died in Armada, which counts for all of the UT.
He died in Animated....for 75 seconds....

And i wouldn't put it past Prime.

RiD is the only continuity where prime never died once.

Anyways...am I the only one who didn't like the 86 movie all that much? Well, that's inaccurate, I did like some parts, but it wasn't super-amazing or anything.
The movieverse, only without all the surviving characters, and then set in the G1 world seems like it wouldn't work to me.
Plus, what's the point of killing Optimus AGAIN...?
