Hmmm...

Terrorist organizations secretly working with the Decepticons... There's a tiny chance that this might not suck slag if they do it right.

It's aimed at young children. No way the concept of terrorism shows up in this.

Yeah, only way that happens with any success is if the terrorist group's head has a taste for blue uniform, a raspy voice, and enjoys alternating between hoods and metal faceplates...COBR-h*hack, cough, hack*

But since it won't, I'm going to go put on my best Bruticus voice, phone up Cartoon Network, and tell them I hate them all whilst speaking in 3rd person.

EnergonPrimeRules wrote:Cartoon and Hasbro execs said the new series, "Transformers Animated," will be significantly different than the others, adding humor, never-before-seen characters and a new premise in which the Autobots fight evil humans in Superhero fashion much more frequently than they battle the Decepticons -- the traditional "Transformers" lore since the property launched as a toy in 1984.

"We've used the basic Transformers and characters as a springboard, but then we're pretty much reimagining the whole thing," said Bob Higgins, senior vp programming and development at Cartoon Network. "What we're doing with it is basically turning it into a superheroes story. We're really excited that we're able to take this decades-old property and hopefully turn it into something that kids haven't seen or expected from a Transformers series before."

how people can hope this will have a good story is beyond me

Ok, Now I am starting to hate this show if they are gonna have super villans fighting the bots :-x

Maybe the evil humans are the PRETENDERS.

Humans on the outside robots within

Might, especially if they intend to make the Decepticons operate in the shadows, manipulating events from behind the scenes, like what's been shown in the IDW universe.

However, given CN's track record with Transformers (and just about ever material that's not truely their own), I have my doubts.

Alright guys, please stay on topic in this thread and take your current discussion to pm's. I'm interested in seeing opinions on the cartoon show, not some childish banter.

News Credits: 1 · by **Spazicon** » Thu Jun 28, 2007 6:21 pm

I agree.

On topic -

- The show's not out yet.
- We haven't seen a lick of actual footage.
- Info on the show is still scarce.

Give it time, before we scream Armageddon.

I'll give the show a shot, but it's not looking too promising.

You know what would be great? If this was the Krypto the Superdog of Transformers, and Hasbro'll announce a new, more teen oriented show.

But how are the figures gonna look? Hasbro knows there's a collector market out there, so this can't be all they're doing.

^Somehow, I don't think so.

Some things just push it too far.

Thats really dumb...
BUT, maybe the evil human will ally whit Megatron. When the autobot will try to stop them, the won,t be able too because they are human! Autobot never kill human...
Except in crossfire! (Robot Chicken anyone?)

by **Dagon** » Mon Jul 02, 2007 11:42 pm

Decepticons=the best villains.

Decepticons=not really villians, more like misguided freedom fighters.

evil humans>Decepticons=gay.

by **YouFearGalvatron** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 1:33 pm

Yeah, this series will just be sooooo awesome.

Then again, the only thing on CN I like is Robot Chicken and The Family Guy.

You know, the whole humans bit could be a good thing. We might get human figures in scale with the Transformers.

Maybe something like Energon Kicker, only, you know, good.

by **Night~GONE** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 3:12 pm

Um read here http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=139268 there is a little part in there mentioning the decepticons will influnce a certain few humans to do bad but the decepticons will be the major players as the bad guys.

Don't correct them. Let them wallow in their deluded pool of sadness.

by **Wolfguard** » Tue Jul 03, 2007 3:41 pm

From bad to worse...Decepticons take a back seat to evil humans in the new cartoon

Personally, I feel it's a bit unrealistic for anyone to think they can fairly and objectively pass this kind of judgement on a show they've never seen.
