Expanding my Transformers horizons

Postby Geekee1 » Tue Jul 03, 2007 3:28 pm

After attending Botcon I am very excited to catch up on all of the shows that I never watched. Basically anything past G1. I picked up Season 3 of Beast Wars today, and ordered the first two seasons off of the net.

I can't wait to watch all of this stuff, and I feel bad that I didn't see it the first time around, because they were not what I felt were "real Transformers."

This got me thinking that a lot of us in the fandom need to give things more of a chance. Just because things are different doesn't mean that they aren't great. The movie is proving that to a lot of us. So I also say to give the new animated series a chance before calling it terrible. I think that a lot of us will be very pleasantly surprised.

If nothing else the brand will continue to grow to a new generation. This show is not our Transformers. It is the new generation of fans Transformers. Heck, my wife loved what we saw at the Hasbro panel, and she doesn't watch G1. And the toys look awesome.

So to all members, keep an open mind. You may be happier for it.

Look, the reason a lot of us DON'T keep an open mind is because of all the times we got shafted. Have you seen any of the post-Beast era cartoons? Pure crap!

Still, there's always undying enthusiasm in the fandom. "That comic sounds really cool." "I can't wait to get that figure." "I'll upload my convention pictures tomorrow." We still have enthusiasm, we are just selective over what we are enthusiastic about.

Once you've watched the entire Beast Wars series, you will know just HOW GOOD a TF cartoon can be. Bob Forward is some kind of God (and I better not forget Larry DiTilio, either). If Bob would write for a new TF show/movie, holy crap, I'd die a happy fan.
