Chibi Starscream wrote:I actually liked season 3 for the most part. The core Autobot group of Rodimus, Kup, Arcee, Blurr, and Wheelie grew on me so much that they became my favorite group of Autobots. I also both hated/loved Galvatron for his super power strength and his obvious insanity. Another character (though more minor) that I really liked, was Octane. He was a Decepticon, but he did what he wanted and was friends with Sandstorm. He also had a run in with Starscream's ghost and teamed up with him for a bit. I also really like the episode where Grimlock got genius level smarts after being zapped by a super computer, and created the Technobots.
Sure some things about Season 3 could have been better. The writing was ALWAYS super cheesy. Those were just the times. They could have stopped killing Optimus 3-4 times. The zombie episode was enough, even if the fight part with Hot Rod was funny...the epic death of Optimus' sacrifice to save the rest of the Autobot fleet by acting as a decoy was wasted and became meaningless after Optimus returned again, just to die again later...
Season 4...well...let's just admit it. It shouldn't have existed at all. Season 4 should have started with episode 1 of the Japanese only Headmasters.

Technically you are incorrect, G2 is still CanonAllNewSuperRobot wrote:
Technically Re-G1 removed G2 from canon however (as well as a sizable chunk of the Superior UK TF series).

ZeroWolf wrote:No insult takenthe first bit was actually just me saying why prime was in rebirth, the movie was the first thing I thought of something I ran with it. I'm the type of person who responds without checking things out. Usually to my deferment but I always learn something new by doing it. Like I never knew about the voice over being a UK exclusive till it was mentioned in a reply to my post. I assumed it was added to the video release to do damage control (well it was damage control, just added to the theatrical UK release after the carnage hit)

ZeroWolf wrote:A friendly reminder though, opinions are not facts, there is no fact saying that idw is bad or not. Just opinions saying if we like it or not.
The lack of supervillains and human characters in general in season 3 is due to Hasbro requesting their removal

Irrelevant really. This about discussing a given subject within a defined space. If someone wanted to gauged opinion on a particular question, where would be the most expedient place to look? Scrolling through five or ten threads hoping to chance on some random lines or one point, specifically defined?
We have four basic rules
1. No personal attacks/threats
2. No adult (18+) material
3. No discussion nor promotion of illegal activities
4. No pseudo-modding

I always thought Lockdown was the most interesting new character from Animated. I was hoping he would show up in Prime as well, but he wasn't used again until AoE. He was the most interesting character in that as well. I think he would make a great comic book character.AllNewSuperRobot wrote:A lot of series fall fowl of having a given series revolve around "the popular ones". Funny thing is you make characters popular by using them. Every character is on an equal footing when they first debut. Note that the characters created specifically for Animated (Bulkhead, Lugnut et al) became popular enough from this series to gain inclusion in later media.
