All hail Our glorious leader Megatron!
Oh, you didn't have voices in your head. You had a head in your head! Ahahah!
This animated series is really obssessed with heads. Can you spot all the head references in the sereies thus far?

Obsessed with Heads you say? Why I have no idea what you mean?

Headmaster cutting off Bulkhead's head.

Megatron being nothing but a head.

Lugnut hearing a head in his head.

Reporter droid's head is the only thing seen on the ground right before that little kid who looks like a younger version of Daniel starts crying.

Tutor Bot has a TV for a head.

Blitzwing has a flippy face gimic.

Blackarachnia wears a helmet on her head which is officially NOT part of her actual body like most helmets are.

And allmost everyone has a oversized chin.

Nope I don't see any head obsessions.

Yay! a prize for glorious Saper prime! He saw everything!
He can have 1,000,000 energon pies as soon as they are invented!
Yay!

i was totally wrong the last time i posted back in the beginning of animated. this series is awesome!!! yeah sure there are some silly parts...but beast wars had some silly parts too. and i definitely believe that animated is the best transformers series since beast wars!!! just seeing all those G1 hints brings back old memories. i love all the characters. all of them have a real sort of personality as opposed to the crap that was armada, energon, and cybertron. and little sari...she's not annoying like those kids from the others. and the decepticons aren't stupid idiots like in the others. i hope animated sticks around for a while!!!

Best episode battle yet! That was awesome! And there's also a reference to G1 with the Ark crashing into a mountain.

There were so many quotes I liked in this episode I can't decide what to put in my sig. Take a vote:

"Decepticons, transform and rise up!" -Megatron

"I trust you're comfterble in your chair." -Megatron

"Hey Blitzwing, why do you have 3 faces, couldn't decided which was the ugliest?" -Bumblebee

"Technically I lost my arm. Your key just happen to be attached to it." -Ratchet

Or submit a vote, these 4 just happen to stand out to me.

I can make jokes all day at TFA's Optimus Prime's expense!!! One about if he bent down from his waist, he'd look a horse accepting his feedbag.

With that out of me I like the new Prime's Character (youthful but caring) but my favorite is Prowl at this point.

Hopefully by the end of this season they scrap the "human villian" Princess 4ever.

by **robotrik** » Sun Apr 06, 2008 1:11 pm

Saber Prime you forgot "Does anyone have a problem with my leadership"- Megatron

that actually reminds me of "Will anyone else attempt to fill his shoes" - Galvatron.

Anyway i really liked this episode especially when Megatron sucker punched Starscream and kicked some autobot ass.

by **glazer** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 7:59 pm

so what of starscream? from last show - is he out now ???? :-(

No, Screamer's alive. He'll be in a later episode being hunted down by both Prowl and Lockdown (but not together).

i gotta say, this series is really growing on me, not literally, that would be weird... im just starting to like it 8-}

by **Newtilator** » Tue Apr 08, 2008 2:56 am

I luvd this episode. I have to say that Screamer isn't appearing enough, but I prefer Lugnut and Blitzwing so hey. BA is not doing enough either. Also, Megatrons new voice doesn't fit when hes in a brawl, but is good when he slowly drawls out meticulous plans...
I loved Blitzwings part in this episode, and Teletran-1, the TF wiki made a good joke I intend to turn into a new sig.
One more thing.. I thought nothing moves Lugnut? How does detonating a bomb that would normally go off by his feet, by his head destroy him? They said Decepticons would be much more powerful than Autobots, and at the beggining it's true, but it seems the Autobots have "drama power" They get stronger in dire straits. The idea was Decepticons don't look like idiots, but when they get defeated by the equivalent of Children, it makes them look reaally stupid! That's my major gripe with this series.
"Transform and rise up!"

EDIT: I've made the picture of my new sig in paint, but i can't get it into my sig. Can someone tell me how you putimages in your sig Please? Thanks if you do :grin:

! If not then :evil:

Please help!

Newtilator, what you gotta do is takes the image file and go to an image hosting site (I use imageshack.us, I'll direct you as if you were using it too). When you get to the site, there be something that lets you browse your files to find the image you want to host. Get the image and click "Host It" (or something along those lines). Either a new page will load or a new window will open, one of these is the page you want. Once it is hosted, there will be several text boxes with web addresses in them. One of them will be labeled something like "Direct link to image". That is the one you want. Highlight the address in it, right-click, Copy, go to your profile on the Seibertron forums, click "User Control Panel", click "Profile", click "Edit Signiture". Before you paste in the box, erase anything that is already in the box, then click in the box to get the Insertion Point blinking in it. Click the "Img" button above the box, and between the [img]and[/img] tags, right-click and paste the image address between the two images tags. Optional, hit "Preview" to see what the sig will look like. Finally, hit "Submit" to have your new sig inserted.

Hope this helps.

I use Photobucket.com, which is kind enough to provide the full link including the image tags around it for forum usage. Very handy, you just click and it self copies, then all you do is paste into your sig textbox.

Ohh by the way, your sig image is too big. Sig images can't be bigger than 300px by 500px. yours seems to be 400 by 200 and something.

Here's the thread with the sig guidelines:

Oh my gawd, I love Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I own the Ultimate Hitchhikers Guide (the colection of all 5 books pluse the Young Zaphod mini story in one book) The original 6 episode BBC series on DVD and the recent movie which completly ruined Zaphod's character with the fliping head thing.

Hey guys, just a small observation i have made regarding the speculation that The Ark is Omega Supreme, in the first episode Prime tried to activate the Arks defenses when they were attacked by the Decepticon ship, only for Teletraan 1 to deny the access due to something to do with Cybertron trying to conserve energon. I believe that the Arks defense is indeed to transform into Omega Supreme but due to his sheer size and power, he has been deactivated to 'conserve energon'.

Not sure but that kind of makes sense to me and i am not sure if anyone has brought that to light regarding whether or not the Ark is Omega Supreme, i believe that it is but i am not getting too excited about it as i am not altogether digging Animated, the writing is decent mind you.

I so agree. The movie was a far worse failure than Micheal bay's film any day. I hope for Douglas Adams sake, that there is no terrible secret. Did you see Blitzwings head rotating vertically in the last episode? Kinda similar. Anyway, thanks for the help, I don't think I'll change my siggy now, but I just thought it was a good idea.

Well in box office credits yes. Not many people went to see Hitchhikers Guide and the ones that did, didn't like it. The movie was disliked by both fans of the book and people who never heard of it before.

The one thing in the movie most everyone agrees they did like is the face slapping scene. That was one of many scenes in the movie that wasn't even part of the book but was verry funny. Aside from that the movie took out alot of funny bits from the book in favor of remarkably stupid bits for the movie.

Opinion wise, I'd much rather watch the movie "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" over Michel Bay's "Scrap Metal Invaders" any day. Not really saying that it was a worse movie but it just "wasn't tranformers"

Biggest problems with Micheal Bay's movie. Not enough screen time for the title characters and the designs made the fight scenes nearly impossible to follow. I would have prefered to see more G1 styal designs and have all the Autobots and Decepticons in for the entire movie not just "Lets introduce everyone right at the verry end before the huge crappy looking fight scenes."

G1 designs may look "cartoony" but hey guess what, so do these craptastic designs. At least with the simplistic G1 styal designs you can tell the characters apart from eachother.

I like Jazz a LOT better than the other two. He's much easier to convince that humans aren't deadly than the other two.

Also, I think Sentinel might be scared of organics, based on his past experience with the spiders, and he's always pulling out a force field in this episode.

And, I hate to admit it, but there might be something to the theory about Sari being a robot. BUT a robot/android/etc is not the only possibility as to what she is. Another possible one would be that she could've been born in a lab tube/artificial womb as a human created through science.

Besides, its already been said she's human:

But, who knows, things can change.

I said along time ago ether on this thread or in one of the others about TFA that I thought that interview was trying to hard to say she was human and that they were trying to trick us because so many fans had guessed she was a robot pretty early.

If I'm wrong so be it.

I just got done watching "Elite Guard" and I like Sentinel Prime's Cybertron mode better.

Anyway a few thoughts.

1. According to this page Ironhide is allso supose to be a member of the Guard with Ultra Magnus, Sentinel Prime, and Jazz. http://transformers.wikia.com/wiki/Cybe ... lite_Guard

2. Sari sure likes to say Sumdac alot.

3. Where were the Dinobots when they were all fighting the Decepticons? They show up to attack Autobots whenever they show up on the island but Decepticons, nothing.

4. I like this version of Jazz and he's verry simular in many ways to Prowl. Both ninjas, both interested in organics, and both don't allways follow orders well.

5. This is the first we've heard that "Prime" is associated with rank in this series. Ultra Magnus outranks both of them though. I wonder how the series is going to play out now that Optimus has to follow orders from someone else.

6. Anyone else notice Sentinel Prime and Ultra Magnus seem to have powers based on Captain America and Thor.

7. Sari apperently ISN'T adopted as there are no adoption papers. She was allso never born... maybe there is something to this robot idea... Is this season going to be all about finding the fragments of the Allspark and revieling what or who Sari really is?

8. Porter C. Powell had a much larger part in this episode for a guy who before this only appeared to fire Prometious Black and appear in a crowd scene.

9. Something to notice. If you look at the Autobot symbols not only does the Elite Guard have wings but their basic symbol designs are allso alot more detailed than the ones on Optimus and his crew. The Elite Guard symbol looks more like this :BOT:

and less like this. :WRECK:

10. Megatron looked to be in much better shape than he was at the end of the last episode. Lugnut however is in horrible shape, his arm fell off and he can't reach to reattch it. In the words of Starscream "Poor Lugnut".
