Stop whining and go watch beast machines if havn't already! It's compelling, serious, mature, and downright dark. I put it and TF Prime in the same boat.

Who's whining? I liked Beast Machines. It's my fourth favorite series (tied with RiD). But I don't know if I'd put Prime up there with it. At the moment, I'm not sure if I like Prime more, less, or the same as Beast Machines.BeastProwl wrote:Stop whining and go watch beast machines if havn't already!

Dude, comparing BM and RID is like comparing "Fire in the Sky" with "Kremzeek". It's just... NO!

That's three different series, you can't count them as one. You can count them as a three-way tie, but not one single series.cotss2012 wrote:6. Armadaverse

Did you grow up on this show? No? Well, that explains it. I grew up on Beast Wars, Beast Machines, and RiD, thus they hold great sentimental value for me, which is why I hold them all to such a high regard. I KNOW well that RiD was not a great series, but it's nowhere near as bad as people claim it to be (that title belongs to Energon). Besides, my list was not a canonical list of best series to worst series, but a list of MY PERSONAL FAVORITES to least favorites. There were no facts put into that list, hence why I left Prime off.cotss2012 wrote:8. RID

Why, what'd you grow up on? I'm glad to have been introduced to the series by the one that holds the highest regard among the majority of the fandom (BW).cotss2012 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I grew up on Beast Wars, Beast Machines, and RiD, thus they hold great sentimental value for me
I... I had no idea... I'm so sorry for you.

No offense, but that's kinda sad.cotss2012 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:what'd you grow up on?
In effect, two VHS tapes, each with material that was copied from tapes that my mom rented from Blockbuster. One tape had most of Season 1, though the episodes were in the wrong order (since we had no idea what the correct order was and not every video store had every episode). The other tape had a censored version of the movie and "The Return of Optimus Prime".

...Not really.cotss2012 wrote:It's certainly a million times better than growing up on RID or the first season of BW.
Um, many of the same people who wrote for the first season wrote for the second and third.cotss2012 wrote:BW season 1 was crap... BW didn't get any good writers until S2, and then it really got awesome.

And, like I said, season 1 won the Emmy, not season 2 or 3.
I'm not saying season 2/3 weren't great. i'm saying that season 1 wasn't awful.RhA wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Um, many of the same people who wrote for the first season wrote for the second and third.cotss2012 wrote:BW season 1 was crap...

Yeah, but season 2 had 'the agenda'.
FWIW, I consider BW and BM a whole.

As for the "autobot bible", that was just merely a prophesy. I'm not sure I would consider it a religion even though they might have one. How can you not believe something your creator told you would happen anyway? lol I wouldn't really call it a religion that they believe in primus because primus really is their creator..so I guess yeah he is a god but I don't think they exactly worship him, just respect him. Then again..they never really talked about it so we don't really know. I do know that it wasn't a bible lol.
I know lol. It's to bad they never elaborated on where it came from and if there was anything else. It would of caused less misconception.Sabrblade wrote:The "Covenant of Primus".Ravenous Nightwind wrote:You gotta love how they try to take over and attempt to kill the humans and then boom dinobot turns on him!
