[Animated] Who's planning on watching this one, then?

Post by Denyer »

I might. It'd be a break from habit (haven't watching anything from RiD onwards, and haven't really skimmed Beast Wars or Beast Machines either) but this sort of recalls old characters and could be fun... [/unusual optimism]

Don't know until it comes out, really. Guess I'll just suck it and see... but what I see so far looks somewhat sour lemon. Well, got to give it a chance. :glance:

Well, I'm yet to soldier through Cybertron. I've always liked the highly stylised art in Batman of the Future (Batman Beyond) so I'm anticipating good things from that.

I'll be happy if there's another Skywarp toy to add to my collection :)

Well, since RiD was the last TF cartoon aired on a channel I get...I wish I could, but I probably won't be able to.

It's going to be fun. Something Transformers has needed for a while, frankly. The film's shown that doing basically the opposite of what loudmouth fanboys want is A Good Thing, and this looks set to continue that trend...

If its anything like everything else Transformers it will be six months late and twice the price over here;)
Loss of job. Will sell for food here.

I'll give it a shot. I gave Armada and Cybertron a shot too, but they were both pretty lame, so I stopped watching after a some episodes. Hope the same thing doesn't happen with TF:Animated....

Possibly. The stills I've seen can end up being really great or really terrible, I'm waiting to see it actually animated.

It's terrible.

The characters are all drawn wrong with the wrong names.

The designs SUCK.

It's not REAL Transformers.

They should stop raping my childhood already.

People who like it aren't REAL Transformers fans. Or at least not the sort of people who I think should be Transformers fans. The only people who'll watch it are the people who don't know what Transformers IS. This isn't Transformers - this is Pokémon. And we don't want people who watch Pokémon liking the same stuff as us.

It's pathetic and terrible and NOBODY will watch it. They've just killed the franchise stone dead in my eyes.

Worst. Thing. Ever.

Let's go back to 1996 when the only people who knew anything about Transformers was me and three of my mates and nobody else was allowed to join and the toys were good and the cartoon was good and nobody knew that Road Caesar was a crap toy because I was the only one who had one.

:rant: :(

Well, I love most of the designs so I'll definitely give it a shot. If it's rubbish I'll leave it for a while -- and then give it another shot, á la Armada. The later episodes were pleasantly surprising. :)

Edit: My one-liner was rubbish. Removed and replaced with a funny face -- don't ask: :U

I dunno.

I'm not 'anti-new-cartoon' or anything, but trying to find anything on Cartoon Network and not getting either 'Lazlo' or 'Gym Teacher' is a Monkey is a painful exercise.

These days, I'm far more likely to pick it up on disk.

It looks like harmless "watch whilst ironing" fun at the very least.

Oh, and Brend, you forgot to complain about the Forum for this being put above the real Transformers Forum.
