Yes. And episode 2.Stormer wrote:Sabrblade wrote:At least three years.Stormer wrote:So, how long have the Autobots been on Earth,
For some reason I had 3 years in my head - was it said in episode 1?
It's a forced continuity, like how Cybertron/Galaxy Force was forced in with Armada/Micron Densetsu and Energon/Super Link.Stormer wrote:Sabrblade wrote:The Ark, which we saw in WFC and read about in Exodus.Stormer wrote:how did they get there,
Sorry, don't have the game. I did read Exodus, but not convinced that these three are supposed to be tied together.
Beast Wars had a total of 3 seasons, which were put on three DVD sets in 2003-2004 (which are all currently out of print).Stormer wrote:Ok, stop rolling your eyes at me! I'd love to see Beast Wars...is it on DVD?
It's too early to declare TF: Prime as being better than Beast Wars. Beast Wars has had 52 episodes and 10+ years of legacy to live off of. TF: Prime has only had five episodes on a channel that's still not that well known to people (half the TF fans I talk to in person have never heard of TF: Prime or even the Hub), and those five episodes weren't even the main story; just an introductory mini-series.HoosierDaddy wrote:I disagree that Beast wars owns this series.

Maybe they all got caught in the explosion with Megatron, what with them being so close to the Space Bridge (almost touching Megatron's fingertips) when it blew.Dorca wrote:So, just watched it again with my roommates, and thought of something that I don't think has been mentioned yet--
What happened to all the Zombicons? Does anyone else find it absolutely horrifying that Cybertron is just full of zombies now? So much for ever going home, Autobots. See what you did, Megatron? See what you did?

Just thinking out loud here. I'm really not that much of a stickler for details like this...

Great comment.
I like you, Burn. You're as cynical and surly as I am!

1. MIKO's Voice Actress.
-She's supposed to be voicing an exchange student from Japan, however her accent is Mexican. Living in Southern California, this is quite jarring and difficult to believe. Even the actress herself is Asian--at least get the accent on the correct side of the globe.
2. ORCI & KURTZMAN.
-These guys can't write human kids.
Not only did they fail effectively address "why" these kids are important--because they're not. And yet they allow them to get in the way all the time forcing the kids to have really precocious skills such as advanced understanding of computers, reckless behavior, and emo-ness. I think that if the kids were advanced on their own terms, having them actually be employed as "interns" by the Autobots like Fowler is some sort of liaison might be better so as they aren't a hindrance/burden, but an asset.
-Momentum
Episodes 1-2 were excellent in terms of pacing.
Episodes 3-5 became increasingly less interesting. There could be a number of reasons for this, but whatever, I'll just leave that at the discretion of the viewer.
>>Keep the action going, and stop using lame plot devices (Dark Energon, Satellite Arrays, Kids).
3. DULL SURPRISE.
-Beast Wars got the facial expressions down very well. Gaping holes as mouths do not impress. I think they could have made this a lot more dynamic. Oh well, at least Megatron looks good.
Some praise:
I like it. The first two episodes are absolutely awesome in terms of story. Yet, the final three episodes seemed lackluster, and thus while I like it, I don't love it. If this series is to top Beast Wars in terms of quality, there's a lot that needs to be stepped up in terms of writing.

Rumored to have Khan in it from the old movies will now instead feature an old scool 1966 original series villain in it instead such as Mudd they had a poll asking us which of the Villians from the 60's would they like to have in the new Star Trek film.

No. The movies have nothing to do with WFC and Prime. They're separate realities altogether.Rodimus2006 wrote:WFC is in the beginning of time eons before the crash landing of Earth. on how it connects to Prime in the timeline i guess it takes places before the movies some point around or before Movie-1.
