The Energon Pub

I'm watching Sweeney Todd right now and it just got to "I'm Fine Johanna" the part with the killing montage.

I started to think, this isn't too far off from what they just did in Transformers Animated with Megatron killing Starscream over and over again.

I think it'd be a fun idea to put that music over the footage from "Mission Accomplished" of Starscream's multiple deaths.

Oil Slick – Not a cartoon character, toy only but will probably be in around comic #3. MAY make it into later seasons

"Garbage In, Garbage Out" = Funniest episode EVER!

I'd like to point out, Ratchet was a jerk. Normally he's just bad tempered but in this episode he came off as more of a Jerk than Sentinal Prime.

There were ALOT of G1 Refrences in this episode as well.

1. Spike and Carly were actully called by name in this episode and Daniel is apperently getting a little brother or sister.

2. Wreck-Gar's line "I dare to be stupid!" the song "Dare to be Stupid" was the song by Weird Al who does the voice in this series for Wreck-Gar that played durring the first time we saw the original Wreck-Gar.

3. There was allso a refrence to Batman in this episode. It might not of been intended to be a refrence to Batman but Wreck-Gar's line "They call me Worthless-Wreck-Watching-Pile-Of-Garbage" was simular to the Creeper's line "They call me Crazy-Yellow-Skined-Maniac" on The Batman Animated series.

Yay! Weird Al comes at long last.
Major lols for Wreck-gar, and his adorable alt mode.
Lugnut used his mace of awesomeness! And they said Decepticons would be made to look powerful..
Angry archer!
"Not tools, jewels!"
"No, these are spools! give me the JEWELS!"
"Carpet tacks, Income tax?"
Such laughter. Suprised about pregnancy being in a kids show. I hope for all our sakes, that Wreck-gar the hero returns to save us..

"Ahh, the Universal Greeting. Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." YES.

This guy's more goofy than Blitzwing's black face.

"I am Wreck-Gar, I..."

I enjoyed this episode very much.

Megatron's twitching eyes over Lugnut, Wreck-Gar's lols and the original Transformers movie references. Got my laughing and smiling all the way through :lol:

Wow, Animated seems to come on every weekday now in Zimbabwe...which means there are a few guys who are WAY ahead of us. There are pics of the Constructicons and a 1 minute vid on YouTube. I remember someone from there
used to post spoilers before he had to stop.

I just hate being "behind".

Weekdays in Zimbabwe? Robert Mugabe must really love Transformers Animated. I suppose he's got to do something in between all the torture, murder, and political bullying.

Once again I'm left at a loss as to what quote to add into my Sig this week. Anything said by Wreck-Gar is pure gold. Help me choose a quote, has to be from Wreck-Gar though.

As for the pregnancy thing... They did a whole episode of "Mr. Rodgers Neiborhood" on Breastfeeding, and they actully showed everything. This didn't even show a birth and it's not that unusual now adays to see a pregnant woman on TV. This may just be the first time in a cartoon though. (And cartoons like Family Guy don't count beause they're not targeted at kids in the first place.)

I vote for "I am Wreckgar! I am only good for one thing! GARBAGE!"

I didn't even notice this but apperently someone on Wiki did. Look at one of the items Wreck-Gar through at Bumblebee.

Wreck-Gar threw himself, that must have been we- Oh sorry.

I'm kinda leaning twords either "I am Wreck-Gar, I DARE to be stupid!", "Ah, the universal greeting, Ba weep grawg na weep ni ni bong.", or "They call me, Wreck-Walking-Pile-Of-Garbage."

BTW I so wanna see a Wreck-Gar vs. Blitzwing battle now. I wander who's crazier, Wreck-Gar or Blitzwing's crazy face. Kinda wish it was Blitzwing that appeared in this episode in place of Lugnut.

I vote for my absolute fav line ever:
"I am Wreck-gar! I knock things over!"
Can't wait for the toy. I can store all my cyber keys etc in his bottomless pack!
Hopefully. :grin:

I wonder if his toy will come with any weapon or just odds & ends.

Unless Hasbro invented a way to defy the laws of Physics I doubt the toy will have a bottomless pack like the cartoon. :lol:

Warning if you don't wan't spoilers for S.U.V don't keep reading.

Oh my god the misterious benifactor in S.U.V. isn't powell it's actually SWINDLE and there's a new human villian who can manipulate time which may explain why nanosec is young again. So who's the autobot traitor if swindle isn't I'm now really looking forward to this episode to bad angry archer and professor princess are in it.
I can't do links being on the Wii right now but check tfw for spoilers

News Credits: 456 · by **Sabrblade** » Thu May 08, 2008 5:23 pm

All these big spoilers for "S.U.V.", "Fistful of Energon", and "Autoboot Camp" at tfw2005.com are really making me wish CN would stop lagging the series around and catch up already.

That, or have the Middle East and Canada slow down.

News Credits: 2 · by **Star_ling** » Thu May 08, 2008 7:17 pm

Too bad most people who get the Middle Eastern channel can't get good reception or quality for whatever reason. Otherwise I am more than willing to bet we'd have a couple of Transformers subs on Youtube.

But in a way I'm kinda glad, I mean seeing episodes a whole month ahead of time. It would give me no reason to watch CN.

"Velocity:" Different than expected.

News Credits: 456 · by **Sabrblade** » Sat May 10, 2008 9:01 pm

I finally found "Velocity" on YouTube. FanTransformers finally got it up and running.

It was pretty good. I liked the return of BB's Turbo Boosters, but I didn't like the whole "Racer X/Who is that guy?" take on Blu-- er, uh, I mean, the blue race car.

News Credits: 668 · by **Autobot032** » Sat May 10, 2008 10:54 pm

Velocity was one of their better episodes. It's a shame we didn't get to see Blurr's robot mode. (no one's being spoiled at this point. Characters and synopses were spoiled months ago.)

One other thing, the episode was a bit preachy. It's theme was aimed at adults as much as kids, if not more so. We got the idea, beating us over the head with it wasn't necessary.

Don't get me wrong, I understand the point they were making, I do, it's just that after the 3rd or 4th time...they're beating a dead horse.

Did anyone else notice the Stunticons in that episode? Not really 100% accurate to G1 but Master Desaster was useing a semi and the 4 other cars who weren't Blurr.

The Master Desaster logo on his costume and on the truck looked like a mix between Cobra from GI Joe and Dr. Claw from Inspecter Gadget.

I like how Blitzwing made the "Look, they're twins" comment, followed shortly by "How come your interior is so much cleaner than mine" and "I don't know, maybe because it's not on fire."

Blitzwing actully seemed more stable in this episode than he normally does. He stayed on his calm face for most of the episode untill he started flying in that narrow trench and had to switch to Tank mode.

Nah, they don't look that much like the Stunticons. I just rewatched the parts that the other cars were shown. They look more like generic cars instead of homages.

Didn't care for it, though I did like the set up for Blur. I think he's going to be fully introduced in the Boot Camp episode.

I've heard that he's going to be in several more episodes, including the season finale.

EDIT: Presumably either because John Moschitta Jr. doesn't get much work these days, or because he can record an entire season's worth of material in two hours.
