Dinobot of the beast wars quotes Hamlet twice and there are many passages of the books of revelations in the series. I am the alpha and omega by bw Megs. I'm surprised Dinobot didn't quote "The Merchant of Venice" Does not a predacon have a form,eyes ears mouth like a maximal? If you prick one does it not bleed?

Yeah, Code of Hero had a lot of Hamlet and there was one other episode before where he was contemplating what to do with the two discs... "the rest is silence" line is actually from Othello.

That's "Coming of the Fuzors Part 2".

but... why should he have to quote "The Merchant of Venice"? It's not like he has to use every quote from all of Shakespeare's works...

He dosn't have to quote it, it just would have been apropreate.

because the original line from Shakespeare addresses a question about one's character and how even as good or bad, the character is still human - or robot in Dinobot's case. the line is quite appropriate and i like Dinobot being an adept monologue.
