So, do you mean you only rewatched the episodes you saw before, or did you also watch ones you hadn't yet seen? As I said, only three episodes are filler (but one of those three, will later no longer be filler).DJ1107 wrote:So now that I rewatched mosted episodes I've grown accustomed to the show
Simple. The games take place eons ago, body changes and modifications happen over time, and Rescue Bots has as different an art style as G1 and the Beast Era did.DJ1107 wrote:(Still confused as to how Rescue bots are in continuity with Prime and __ of cybertron but whatever)
Oh, and it's been officially confirmed that Miko isn't dumb.DJ1107 wrote:I still stand my thoughts that "Convoy" & "Rock bottom" are crap episodes, My hatred for Miko, Starscream, & Arcee still stands,
Yeah, that's something. On one hand, they played the ultimate villain card so early in the game, that anything afterward shouldn't be able to top it, or if anything does top it, then it would disgrace this show's portrayal of Unicron. but on the other hand, now that they've gone and gotten the cliche use of Unicron out of the way, they are nowfree to come up with more original and creative stuff.DJ1107 wrote:& My thought on using Unicron too early haven't change that
But it's getting a third season.DJ1107 wrote:plus MLP is ending soon so hey I might as well come back.
They say he's supposed to have a "compelling character arc". But, we've seen his toy, so we now know what he looks like.DJ1107 wrote:But while we're on subject with characters: I just hope Dreadwing isn't a throw away character like the last two con's we had (okay Skyquake returned but he's a Zombie in a alternate dimension.)

Go back and watch ones you haven't watched. There's a lot you missed.DJ1107 wrote: rewatched alot of episodes I've already watch with an open mind because I was too angry after Darkness rising part 3-5. I hadn't watch T.M.I. or Strong Faster but I do know it's building up to something with the sinthetic energon.
Cliffjumper wasn't advertised as having a whole story arc to himself. He was just advertised as some cool dude to be seen in episode 1.DJ1107 wrote:You say that now about Dreadwings "big character arc" but you know who else was getting heavily promoted? Cliffjumper, and we all know what happen to him.

Seeing as how that's the most he's done up until now, it's a start. But Soundwave needs to do more than just be "Mr. Creepy-vibes".Gyrotron wrote:I just hope Ironhide gets a spot in Season 2. That'd kick ass ^_^DJ1107 wrote:The character I want to see some development is Soundwave.

I get that they're trying to make him like Snake Eyes, but Snake Eyes was more active and did more stuff. Soundwave has mostly just stood around looking ominous.

One for each year of the Movieverse's decade strong tenure. Here's to a few more explosive years!
Marvel UK personified Soundwave greatly! In those comics (but sadly not the American ones), he was diligent, cunning, tactical, ingenious, and even had a slight shred sense of morality. He was something of the Decepticons' de facto leader whenever they became leaderless. That's right, he took command when there was no leader, in spite of Starscream holding the title of Decepticon Second-in-Command. And of all the Decepticons to ever take command throughout the course of the comic, he seemed to be the most competent and most successful, coming up with plans that not only worked but worked more than once! Of course, his terms as leader in the present day were always short, as he was still loyal to the likes of Megatron and Shockwave, and so would willingly step down whenever either returned. After all, he was a de facto leader rather than the official leader.TulioDude wrote:If we think we think about it,in many continuities we never get to so what's on Soundwave's head.I think one of the best character development of him was Transformers Animated,were he though Machines were genuinely better than humans and preferred converting the Autobots than destorying them.

Very well put. However, most of that was stuff that, if one followed the rest of the Aligned material beforehand, was already known. The show hasn't developed Soundwave any further than what's written on his bio. He's been like this all throughout the first season and, up until the last episode, never really did anything that major. He's be a static character who is mostly just intimidating in appearance alone (up until, again, the last episode).Volrathicus Baenimus wrote:Well, Soundwave is more than just Mr Creepy in Prime.
One thing that has been well established is that he is Megatrons most unwaiveringly loyal minion and the second most feared of all Decepticons. When Megatron was comatose, Starscream didn't dare simply dispose of him and take over. Soundwave was always there, always watching, and it was clear that Starscream wouldn't dare try to take him on. He had to appeal to Knockout to try and convince Soundwave it was a lost cause. That makes it more interesting that Starscream would nominally be in charge during that time. The only reason Soundwave wouldn't have been is a lack of ambition to do so. But he could be. Also there is the fact they almost convinced him to pull the plug, as it were, at one point. That may mean his complete loyalty is not to Megatron personally but to the position of rightful leader of the Decepticons, willing to transfer it to a new leader only when the old one is truly a lost cause.
So, to sum up:
> Watches from shadows, ultimate spy and observer.
> Fiercely loyal to Megatron, but possibly more so because is the current rightful leader than personally.
> Second most feared of all Decepticons and incredibly powerful fighter, but has no ambition to lead, only to serve the rightful leader. He lives to serve the Decepticons.
Plenty of personality, and he's never spoken a word of his own :p

I'm not saying he needs to speak or anything, but he at least needs to do more than just "stare and scare" the other Cons.
Amazingly, there's been very few comics for this continuity, and he hasn't been focused on in any of them.Volrathicus Baenimus wrote:Fair enough, I never did read the comics so all this was just based on observations of Prime.
Yeah, that aspect of his is very cool. Makes ya wonder how he'd convey himself when put in a solo situation.Volrathicus Baenimus wrote:I do find it interesting, in Prime he's only spoken by echoing others, and all we know of him comes from how his presence echoes off others.
