One word........Pointless.
Get to back Megatron already. Enough with the story arc crap. I just watched 20min of something that does not progress the story at all. Now the writers are just jerking us around. I'm so tired of Megatron always being incapacitated in every frigging universe or series now. I don't see any reason to make so many filler eps. Good writers could come up with continuos connective stories from one ep to the next And not have to drag it out.
It's like if I talk really slow and say,
I..........have..........to...............go..............to................the..............store............today.
And saying that I have a lot to say.
Get to the point!
Starscream had the Harvester for a whole 3min and then it was destroyed and then he flew away. That's it?! All this waiting around all week for that? Waste of time. This ep was more about Miko's dumb book report than anything else.
10 episodes into this series already and I'm still waiting every week for the story to continue and pick up where it left off. Definitely my least fav episode. It's not even favored at all in my book.

Shadowman wrote:That was fast storytelling because stories were over in 20 minutes. You're complaining about how this series doesn't move on with it's main story, well, G1 didn't even have one of those. Beast Wars did, Animated did, the Unicron Trilogy did, G1 had no such thing.
Shadowman wrote:So then what's the problem? Kids have short attention spans, so, filler stories.
Shadowman wrote:We're only 10 episodes in to a 26 episode season. Not even the half-way point. So you don't know that everything that's been done so far was pointless.
NiteStar wrote:Im sure that everything serves to a greater purpose of the story but Im simply pointing out this on going theme they have of having a huge occurrence take place then just dropping it for months at time. It can be and is a huge nuisance to many viewers.

Stop asking these questions. All anyone can tell you is "WE DON'T KNOW!" All you ever post are questions that have no answer.psj333 wrote:Last week, when I saw Breakdown and Knock Out in the Prime series, they're awesome. Furthermore, they both survived their own fates in the debuts, along with Wheeljack. While it is very likely that Breakdown will get an action figure, Wheeljack and Knockout are currently listed as cartoon-only characters. Does that really mean that Wheeljack and Knockout will always remain as cartoon-only characters and never become action figures forever, as opposed to their G1 counterparts? Or is there still a chance that they will still likely to become action figures, only not for this wave?![]()

Why not post something that isn't a question for once and actually contribute to discussions every now and then?

Thank you!
As for the question, the answer is "Maybe." This is a marketing-based franchise, it exists to sell toys. Even characters that only appeared in one scene in one episode (Rodimus Prime, for instance) got toys.
Well, according to Exodus, there are Constructicons, Combaticons, and Protectobots that exist in this canon. So, there's always a possibility.Red 50 wrote:They should sometime introduce some other Wreckers.
Also, they should bring in flying Autobots and at least one combiner team per' side.
But something other than the Constructicons. I would be happy with Combaticons.

No matter how you look at it, any point that Megatron were to come back in season 1 would be a rehash of something. If he doesn't revive until the season 1 finale, it'll be a rehashed of Animated. If he comes back sometime sooner, it'll be a rehash of Beast Wars II. If he doesn't come back until after season 1, the fans are gonna be ticked. It's a lose-lose-lose situation.DJ1107 wrote:Just saying it be good tension and the Decepticons will actually have a win. be better then rehashing Animated season 1 ending

Yeah, and , while Starscream most certainly wouldn't be above torturing children, we've already seen him torture a human (Fowler), so him doing it again would be a rehashing of itself.Shadowman wrote:I think torturing children is where this series would draw the line.

He would only do it if Megatron ordered him to. Even if he is the true second-in-command, he was ordered to remain on Cybertron.DJ1107 wrote:Sabrblade wrote:Yeah, and , while Starscream most certainly wouldn't be above torturing children, we've already seen him torture a human (Fowler), so him doing it again would be a rehashing of itself.Shadowman wrote:I think torturing children is where this series would draw the line.
okay instead of torture how about mind probing that one thing Decepticons are good at doing Soundwave did it back in G1 to Chip and The Doctor (the robot not the time lord) did it to Sam in ROTF with that worm thing. That plus no comment on the whole "Shockwave puts a bullet through Starscreams head"?

Optimus, Bumblebee, Arcee, Ratchet, Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave, and Breakdown were all in WFC and none of them are dead.DJ1107 wrote:But then again for all I know like everyone else in Prime any other Character from WFC is probably dead.

The point of Starscream being in charge and failing is to make Megatron look better for when he comes back.
DJ1107 wrote:you know what be a cool twist that will make the show actually interesting. Have Shockwave come in near the end of season 1 have him put a bullet in Starscreams head and take command. Have Soundwave track the kids down abduct them, then torture them into revealing where the Autobots base is (money on Jack squealing first) Then use Nemesis to blow up there base to leave a cliffhanger until season 2 to reval that they are alive. Just saying it be good tension and the Decepticons will actually have a win. be better then rehashing Animated season 1 ending
