3 minute preview of new Transformers cartoon.

[Joe Redifer]

Did Snarl die before the legendary year of 2005?  He was not in the movie.

Also, where is Autobot City located?  Does it have a Best Buy?

FOKISSED TRANSFORMS INTO A REFRIGERATOR BECAUSE HE'S SO DAMN CHILL!

[ParanoiaDragon]

Nah, Snarl's fine, & was in one of the later episodes.  I've seen a pic of Snarl in the movie, I think it was when they're all in the ship at the begining, but, I'm not sure of the exact scene.  Him not really being a part of the movie though, was a mistake on somebody's part, maybe the writers.

It seemed like Autobot City ala Metroplex was located somewhat near the Ark in the Volcano, which IIRC was in Oregon.  They only had a Kmart sadly

New series on now on Cartoon Network 

[ParanoiaDragon]

Yup, watched some of it, but want to wait for the wife & some friends to come over before I really watch it.  What I saw, I like, though, some of the animation, IMO is kinda jerky.  Diggin the characters!

[nectarsis]

Not to shabby so far...like I said before, some of the voices are...meh..and Detroit...C'mon........

[ParanoiaDragon]

Ok, finished it.  I don't know that it'll ever be as good as G1 or BW, but, it seems good so far.  Sari isn't as annoying as I feared.  I love all the bots voices, ....I love all the bots so far...well, except Blitzwing might take some getting used to.  But, he was only in it for about 10 seconds or less, so there's time to develop him.  There's a good amount of humor, & when I say good, I don't mean a large amount, I mean, it was actually funny at times.  The humans in general, I think, will take some getting used to, which, atleast for me, is normal.  TF shows don't need humans for them to be successful.  Btw, anyone catch that glimpse of Spike, Carly, & Daniel   That was cool.  There's a lot of nods to stuff, especially G1. 

I'm not sure that I like the Autobots struggling against just 1 Decepticon, that might take some getting used to as well, though, from the looks of the episode guide, it probably won't all be like that.  Either way, it looks to be the best new TF series in years, since the Unicron trilogy & RID didn't really do it for me, though, atleast when it comes to both Cybertron & RID, I really liked the designs of the bots alot better then in this, but, that goes without saying.

Weird you feel like this about it,when I look at the art direction and marketing,I think of Playskool.

[ParanoiaDragon]

The art direction, I feel Play School might be appropriate, it's just so basic looking.  And marketing, just like G1 & BW, is for young kids, but, like G1 & BW, I think this series will be enjoyable.  I would've atleast prefered something more along the lines of Justic League, but, this'll have to do.  But what's wierd is, even though I'm not big on the designs in the show....the toys are a different story, that actually look like they might be cool.  Infact, a million times better then the recent movie toys, which, were really flimsy imo.  The Decepticons look the best, & the least childish...if childish at all.  They're still in the same direction, but, they just look more mature to me, so, I have a feeling I'll really be digging the con's toys more the the Autobots.

Hopefully, they'll go the route of Beast Wars and have some sort of electromagnetic storm (or whatever it was) change the forms of the Transformers. Because, like the Beasties, these guys need a facelift.

I gotta admit, that scene was funny   But, isn't Sari supposed to be 7 or 8?  How much could she really know about sex, that's one thing I was thinking at the time.

[Joe Redifer]

Why does that "Transformer" have human lips?

[ParanoiaDragon]

Because that's the way they designed him, plus, he has a battle mask that comes up, sort of like movie Prime.

[Joe Redifer]

How extraordinarily gay!
