Ah, so what we saw in theaters a few weeks back, but without the distracting animation.

Reminds me of Gene Siskel's old question of whether any given movie is as entertaining as would be a film of the same actors sitting around talking over lunch for 90 minutes. Not the greatest metric, but more worthwhile that the current trend of politicizing all entertainment by claiming that every installment of an established property that fails to live up to your expectations/fanfic is the result of a globalist-LGBTQIlluminati-pedolizionard conspiracy. Or the Bechdel test for that matter.

And I'd forgotten, I need to repurpose either Classics Starscream or one of my CHMS KO Starscreams into "Decepticon Leader". Was it intentional weirdness to have Skyfire's voice actor now also voice another high-ranking Seeker with Starscream's exact color scheme? I need to finally read Secrets and Lies...
