That time my friend and...
I rewatched Armada more recently than Prime, and I had a great time. It's a flawed show, but it's a fun show. And I don't think any TF fiction has managed to do Unicron as well as the back half of Armada did. Yes, including the '86 movie. Armada is the closest Unicron gets to being a...
I can't speak on how that would have worked as a full length feature, because it would just be idle speculation.
That being said, RotF's suckitude was born out of very specific circumstances, namely a writer's strike. Bay just started filming action sequences while writers couldn't actually...
Just to add to this...nerds in general (and make no mistake I'm including myself in this because I'm about to kvetch about stuff I've been very guilty of) need to get over the idea that if they don't like a piece of fiction the creator must be the worst person imaginable.
I'm not going to go...
I watched it as it aired. I've never felt compelled to go back to it.
Armada and Victory and Masterforce jostle for the top spot of my TF show rankings because I'm a child of the 90s and early 2000s and therefore damaged anime-pilled.
I can respect Prime's aspirations and the stuff that it...
Steevy compared her to Windblade, but I don't think that's accurate. She's kinda Drift coded in retrospect. New character introduced to a popular Hasbro brand in the late 2000s, given a ninja theme with multiple swords, pushed as the new hotness that got blowback for being suddenly presented as...
While I would like to see G1 toy decos on some SS '86 moulds, I think Magnus is one where it's just not needed. The inability to do the "inner robot in armour" means the mould is exclusively animation Magnus.
Now Kingdom Magnus... yeah I need that one in toy colours.
Optimus was slinging '86 quotes back in Cybertron. The '07 Bay movie even had "one shall stand, one shall fall."
It's clear that the show runners for Prime weren't uber nerds for this stuff, but that doesn't mean much when we're talking about this. The '86 movie is probably the most iconic and...
It's interesting. I genuinely have no issues whatsoever with '07. For all the kvetching over Bay, Optimus feels like Optimus in that. He's all about protecting humanity and seeing the best possible side of us, even when our government kidnaps Bumblebee. He flat out tells his troops to shut the...
While the movies had questionable lines, you can never say Cullen lacked energy or passion in them. Same for the WfC and FoC games. He have pretty solid performances in those.
But Prime? Cullen's so flat and bored sounding in those. And again, between the movies and games we know Cullen still...
