If they can play out the inner conflict of being a Decepticon for millions of years and finally making the decision to stop conquering well, I'll be happy. This could ALMOST be a sequel to Prime where Megatron changed and left the 'Cons after Unicron subjugated him...
Prime did it well. I'm dreading that they will draw from the IDW version. Which cut corners to push the story forward. That was completely at odds with all prior in-universe characterisation.
Yep. "Ex-soldier who fought in the Great War" is her main personality trait.MaximalNui wrote:Isn't Dot an ex-soldier,
Basically an "Eggman/Robotnik" situation.MaximalNui wrote:Also, good to know Mandroid is a nickname that stuck instead of something he chose to call himself. Lets me take the villain much more seriously.

Oh great. Now people on Twitter are taking that footage at face value and thinking this show is literally set in the same universe as the G1 cartoon. It's like Animated all over again.MaximalNui wrote:New trailer/clip on Nickelodeon Twitter.
Nice to finally see some of the G1-esque flashback animation. And I really love the mix of 3D environment & characters with 2D effects.
That's all true for this show's continuity.MaximalNui wrote:Though it is kinda awkward to hear them call Twitch & Thrash the first Earth-born Cybertronians (weren't some Transformers like the Dinobots built on Earth all the way back since the G1 cartoon?) or that Twitch is the first Transformer with a drone alt-mode (sorry Prime Soundwave!).

Aside from his appearance in TF:TM, Sunbow Megatron was never a threat. Much like Filmation Skeletor and '87 Shredder. They were part of a very strange trend of utterly ineffectual villains in the 80's. I still don't get the reasoning for it? Since there were other 80's villains that didn't go down this route.
Also ironic, considering the comic book counterparts of each* were often the opposite.
BW Megs only really did "terrible" things, when he arrived on Cybertron after the Beast Wars. Arguably under the corruption of G1 Meg.
*Not Mirage Shredder, obviously.

Beast Wars Megs tried to extinguish the human race and kill G1 Optimus Prime. Both are terrible enough to me.

The god complex sorta began in the last episode of Beast Wars, when he started claiming to be the Alpha and Omega and spouted about how his victory was inevitable and preordained.MaximalNui wrote:Also funny to see how easily people look at BW Megs' megalomaniacal comedy and forget his plans often involved a lot of genocide and risk of destroying the space-time continuum. Really, the biggest change between that and BM is that he got a god complex and stopped being funny and melodramatic about it (also for some reason began to care about honoring deals even when he had no reason to).

1. Soundwave isn't even in this episode.
2. Elita's head crest off centre is a criticism of what, really? Aside from anal retention..
3. If they haven't had a human protagonist you have liked since 2005. That doesn't sound like a problem with the show either.
4. The Sunbow animation was a call back. But the story it was telling was new. There is no confusion if you actually listened during the scene.
5. I didn't see any issue with any of the voices? No one else who has watched it has said otherwise either. Which everyone did when WFC debuted.
I don't think anyone is blatantly ignoring anything with this show. Just not hopping on a bandwagon of irrational hate. It's been one episode, get a grip.

1. Soundwave doesn't need to be in the episode for my point to be true, read what I wrote.
84everfan wrote:2.Its a tell that these designs weren't an err of a human being as it was made several times and hasn't been corrected, attesting to the laziness
84everfan wrote:3.Sari isn't a human, and Jack was nothing, Miko is an idiot and almost gets herself killed constantly, Raph exists, Danny and Russel exist. Coby, Bud, and Lori provided something every episode, Coby even building his own mech to help fight.
84everfan wrote:4. The animation has nothing to do with it, I'm referring to the Mom having the kids with her during the war despite the war being in 1984 AS STATED BY THE FATHER making the kids roughly 38 years old.
84everfan wrote:5.The direction is bland and stale, Of course Union voice actors like Garry, Peter, David getting the shaft once again, with the exception of Nolan North who is also given terrible direction.
84everfan wrote:And lastly, there's no irrational hate, it is a bland, stale, forced attempt to put out a transformers show with no new concepts because the investors are pushy and greedy.

Its kind of like Basic Instinct, but not in a good way...
Goddammit, now I can't unsee it.
AllNewSuperRobot wrote:84everfan wrote:
Yes it does. To critique someone that hasn't yet appeared in a full episode, is a redundant point to make. That's judging something you haven't seen. Which is asinine.
No, just anal retention. I could point and laugh at the real example of that being virtually episode of Sunbow.
Again, these are your problems. These are favourite characters to people that actually go into these shows to enjoy them.
Did she state that she had kids in 1984, the inciting year of the war and that the war only lasted a year? I must have missed that line...

Based on half a dozen voices from a relatively dialogue light pilot episode? That's reaching, at best.
No new concepts? So you didn't actually watch the episode. Or take note of the subtitle??
...Ok
