In the movie, the 2007 one that is, and especially in the game of the movie they are. Otherwise I can't remember any other ocations where they are surposed to be related.

Nice!

And hey um...is it normal for me to feel like a complete A** for being the only one voting for Megs? I'm feeling mighty down on myself now.

Anyways...In the prequel to the movie Prime and Megs ruled together on Cybertron. So that can explain them saying "brother".

Since they didn't elaborate on that in the movie, I'm ignoring the literal sense of the word in this instance.

In the comic version Prime can't stop calling everyone his Brother... So he either means Borther in arms or his Mamma was a big fat hussy.

Either that or he learned English by watching Hulk Hogan promos.

Timescale fits, in 1984 Hogan's star was rising, and they did crash land in some hick backwater didn't they?

Thing that gets me is that in TF:TCOM, when they give the Insecticons And Those Two With The Cool Powers But No Personality the ol' heave-ho from Astrotrain, someone goes "Brothers! No!", and yet aside from rabid lunatics who believe things like "e-Hobby's character bios shouldn't be ignored", no-one's claimed all the Decepticons had the same dad. Yet it comes up in the film, and everyone takes it as literally as possible.

I dunno, were all the Marvel Headmasters blood-related?

Wouldn't that be all in the oil?

It'd explain a lot of things, the stupidity of many of them, the physical oddities, the strange genetic mutations...

Yup, traveling circus act, the whole changing the way the legs bent was a front for another bunch of inbred outcasts.

It was actually the Transformers attempt to open out the Gene pool, bless their underdeveloped brains.

It's probably because this time I think the original intention was that they were "brothers" in the familial sense. It is certainly unequivocally stated in the novel (by Ratchet, I think) that Megs is Prime's family brother.

But, because I think that's stupid, and it is left ambiguous in the movie, I choose to ignore it.

But that's probably why it has picked up so much steam as compared to other instances where the term is used...just a guess though.

Yeh, that and the fact I think a lot of fanboys wanted it to be true so they could just hate the thing without having to think that hard probably helped it snowball a little.

The way I see it is if I'm gonna fight for something I want a leader I can rely on, so I choose Prime, Megatron would abandon you at the first opportunity.
