Original transformers. war dawn

Postby ajac » Mon Mar 26, 2012 8:44 am

I HATE TIME TRAVEL and this episode makes me hate it worse. I love how they assume if megatron wins this battle they win the war.. do they not think its aleady been won since in the future they didnt and also why the hell didn't optimus prime realize the area they built the crono-sphere was his old warehouse the entire episode feels like its being made as it happens lol. Oh he 80's.

I dont mean to sound rude but..............Look at how you just worded thsat question.Its a bit confusing.

And the reason they feel Megs might win is because the time travelers dont realise they are part of a time loop paradox.

and also why the hell didn't optimus prime realize the area they built the crono-sphere was his old warehouse


A] who said he didnt
B] so what if he didnt?Why would it even matter to remember.

Its been 9 million years, it wouldnt be a shock if he forgot a few things.

War Dawn is one of my favourite episodes. ^_^

We all know time travel isn't really possible, but suspend the disbelief and it's a fun episode. I think they deal with the time travel idea really well, it's an interesting paradox. And it's fun seeing Cybertron in the Golden Ages.

I thought it was a great story and when you are familiar with the time travel concept you are okay with the paradoxes and oversights. That's where you get into parallels and so forth. Orion Pax was actually supposed to meet a much more violent end according to the writer but they toned it down for the kiddos. And as for the Five Faces....well, the script wasn't as big of a disaster as the animation.
