In all seriousness, yes it is. As lame as that episode was, it was nowehre near the levels of as horrid disgrace as "B.O.T."Sinnertwin wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Using "B.O.T." as a model example of a typical G1 episode is a foolish act.
Exactly. The Girl Who Loved Powerglide is much better

other Memorable Characters.
Fun to epic stories.
Animated was cancelled after 3 short series
The stories were bland at best.
It had the worst human characters (Sari in particular).

In G1 The Decepticons were a fearsome army in animated they were comic relief.
Megatron was a head.

You do realize that those two were filler villains, right? You don't honestly believe that those two were meant to be taken seriously as credible threats, do you? If so, then I'm afraid you're sorely confused. Even the show's other characters acknowledged the lameness of those two. They're nowhere near the same league as the likes of Meltdown, the Headmaster, Nanosec, and certainly not the Decepticons, and they're not supposed to be. They're called "minor side threats" for a reason.ausbot wrote:watch out autobots there's a guy with a bow and arrow.
What's to "wow" about? They're not meant to "wow" us, they're meant to "amuse" us with their familiar personalities and Blue Collar, Average Working Man style of humor. Honestly, by comparison, the G1 Constructicons were generic mooks with only Long Haul having any discernible character traits due to his constant whining.ausbot wrote:wow to the constructicons who don't combine,
When did that happen? No seriously, you say it happened, so you must know something about it. When did that happen?ausbot wrote:cheer as the cop from NYPD blue scares the tick,

DUH! Of course it will! It came first and help set the foundation for all that came afterward. But "first" doesn't always equal "best", as PrymeStriker so eloquently demonstrated in his post.ausbot wrote:You like the show thats your opinion but G1 will always be a classic.
Yep. But that episode's fault lie mostly in its animation errors and its premise. "B.O.T.", however, is bad all across the board in nearly every regard.Sinnertwin wrote:Sabrblade wrote:In all seriousness, yes it is.

Carnage in c minor. Galvatron and Soundwave holding hands, was it? Now, that's a disgrace

Only by today's standards. Back then, that animation was considered cutting edge.Delta Magnus wrote:Beast Wars had awesome voice acting and great stories despite the horrible animation,

I thought and still think Beast Wars' animation incredible. Don't see a lot wrong with it.
Henry921 wrote:Energon and Cybertron look underwhelming in comparison, even 7 years later with (presumably) better graphical rendering capability.
You want to know, definitively, why we like Animated? Watch The Thrill of the Hunt, a season 1 episode. Tell me you hate it then.

Just gives them more of that eerie alien feel to them.Delta Magnus wrote:Yeah, Beast Wars had incredible animation for the time, and is still one of the best Transformers cartoons made so far. But by today's standards, let's face it...Ooh. The later days weren't as bad, but some of the episodes didn't even have the characters casting shadows.
