Be patient. I'm sure Auroratron will get it uploaded eventually. In fact, he's uploading right now as of this typing.

EDIT: It's up now.

Slag was already real. Same with Grimlock, Swoop, Snarl and Sludge. And my Dinobot pun quota has been fulfilled.

You say that about everything and it never even happens.

So was the second quote a joke? Because if it was fine, but if it wasn't I refuse to believe Megatron would so easily decide to join the Autobots to stop Unicron. He has been screaming like a mad profit for days now all of a sudden he decide to kill his god because he was yelled at? Also good job on giving the key to your GTFOH to a kid Prime I really hope you die down there (and how much you wanna bet that won't happen?)

He wanted so badly to serve hisidol, only to be smited like some worthless maggot. His pride and rank have been disgraced and now he seeks to prove to Unicron that he is not one to be trifled with. Megs doesn't care if Unicron even is a god. He's gonna teach Unicron a lesson in respect that Uni will never forget. And he's gonna use Optimus as his tool to do so.

Dude, combined with Ratchet's mentioning of how Optimus used to be like Jack in episode 23, this act of Prime giving him this key is so obviously some kind of foreshadowing to something big involving Jack that is likely to come later on.

My Dinobot pun was a joke. I even call it a pun right after.

It wouldn't be the first time.

DJ1107 wrote:He has been screaming like a mad profit for days now all of a sudden he decide to kill his god because he was yelled at?

At first. But now he's had his ego deflated by his former idol, and now he's out for some rejection-based revenge.

DJ1107 wrote:Also good job on giving the key to your GTFOH to a kid Prime

Yes, Optimus, good job giving the key to the Ground Bridge's power supply to the intelligent and resourceful kid who closely resembles yourself when you were young. What were you thinking?

DJ1107 wrote:I really hope you die down there (and how much you wanna bet that won't happen?)

How about we make a bet. If he doesn't die, you don't post anything in regards to season 2. If he does, I will agree and vehemently defend every point you make in regards to whatever you say from now on.

See I missed most of episode 23 so does that mean Optimus was a brooding little nobody who only stayed on a team because a brain dead bimbo who 80% of the population wants to see dead told him he was more then a library clerk? speaking of brain dead bimbo good job yelling at the huge robotic warlord with razor teeth, and a arm cannon Miko Lets pray he made a mental not of coming after you when he's done with Unicron and the legion of losers you look up to.

Wait, you only missed episode 23? Here I was working on the idea you missed every episode.

Watch Predatory, or Rock Bottom. He's very cautious and a bit on the awkward side, but he's a quick thinker and very resourceful when he needs to be, and tends to make good judgement calls.

Don't forget "Crisscross".

@DJ1107: Seriously dude, why do you constantly hate on this show? It's like you've got some personal sore with it that goes beyond the realm of honest criticism. What did this show do to you to make you despise it with every bone in your body?

Sun Oct 09, 2011 2:03 am

No I watch almost all of the episode I watch Rock bottom which was crap in my eyes, I didn't bother watching Predatory because why would I watch a Arcee centered episode? Arcee my least favorite character of this show next to almost all the good guy (except for June, Agent Fowler, Raf, & Ratchet). Also keep your bet I'm done after the finale. MECH project Chimera, Whatever happened to Starscream can all go cuss themselves I'll be watching ponies

@Sabrblade Because I'm old, bitter, and jaded.

He was later retconned into being a god. So, his being a "person" preceded his established godhood as a character.

Thats not exactly right.

Floro Dery's production notes show that his designs/intent for Unicron (then "The Entity") were inspired by the planet Saturn,His quote.... "Saturn sounds like Satur [presumably meaning satyr]. Satur is synonymous with the Devil. The Entity is a Devil-like planet. This is the reason why I designed the Entity like the planet Saturn."

You skip episodes, then complain about characterization and story elements that you don't fully understand. That's just...wow.

How about we compromise, you be done now, and we'll enjoy not seeing you constantly complain about a show you supposedly hate yet you keep watching anyway.

1) you realize that the finale won't be a finale, right? It's going to lead to the next season. That's how these things work, so expect the biggest cliffhanger ever I would guess. So.....

2) it's not the fact that you have criticisms that I think anyone questions. It's the anger and bitterness that is hard to get around. Sorry you have issues with characters (though the venom in your posts suggests that your issues might belay a deeper unhappiness), but perhaps you have unrealistic expectations from this show? Maybe any show. It's an animated advertisement for a toy line, not Chinatown. It's for enjoyment. That's all. For my own sake, I'd hope you could try to be more thoughtful in your criticisms a bit less hostile and a bit more constructive.

I am happy to consider your points, and might even agree if I could get past the vitriol.

Sun Oct 09, 2011 2:36 am

oh, and on a sidenote - I'm on board with most everything going on in this finale. Understanding the target audience and the requirements of the brand and story, I think it's exciting, effective and emotionally satisfying. And you're dead wrong about Arcee. She's certainly the most complex character on the show so far followed by Starscream (having revealed the most internal motivations and emotional scars to date), and I think that resonates with fans. I am sure we will get to see more on each character as we go along, and I can't wait. Rather than thinking , "it makes no sense that Bulkhead would put up with Miko" think "I wonder what it is about those two characters that can bridge this species gap to make such a strong bond?" Every episode a bit more of that is being shown. IMOP, of course.

Sun Oct 09, 2011 2:50 am

I keep watching the show to find something good all I found for the 20+ was Knockout, and June Darby I'm only sticking to this season finale because I hate to leave on cliffhangers. And yes I know this is a show for kids but you know what? I've seen kids shows that raised the bar and actually feels suspenseful. Prime feels empty in my eyes. And if its a show to advertise toys they're doing a pretty crappy job at it killing 3 off and advertiseing for the wrong brand (Unicron=Rocklords Ha I made a funny) And don't give me the whole Arcee is a "complex character" Every times I see her on screen she's either a bitch or talking about her dead partners and Starscream I'm just sick of. I will always be dumbfounded on how you people like Miko. I have not found a shred of likability to this character AT ALL. so please tell me fanboys what is it you guys think makes her a great character name one damn thing that makes her likable that I don't start a petition to tell the writers to kill her off or turn her into a decepticon spy.
