--- Quote from: Storm Rider on 23 Dec 2006, 09:33 ---You guys are missing one crucial point: Nothing with the Transformers name has ever been good. The original cartoon was good only because it was so awful, a fact that was made even clearer by the original movie. Obviously, all the cartoons after the original were just terrible without being funny. So, the fact of the matter is, the possibility that this will end up being terrible does not mean it will not be worth watching.

Speaking as a big G1 fan, I challenge you to a duel sir. A duel to the death!
In fact, the reason I'm a little bit warey over this film (other than that fact it's Micheal Bay directing it :|) is that to me it seems so far removed from the original G1. The designs, the storyline..... I'm not suggesting that things wouldn't have to have been changed, but I am still waiting to see something from this film which will excite me as much as I wish it would.
Ozymandias:
If you're a fan of G1, I don't blame you for being worried, but let me put it like this:
At least it will be entertaining to watch, as opposed to Beast Machines, Energon, or any of the hundred other shitty spin-offs since Beast Wars.
elcapitan:
My first reaction was, "They're going to fuck this up and ruin my childhood!"
Then I realised that I still have my old Transformers somewhere, and while I have them, I can relive the original G1 goodness in all its poorly-animated glory. This movie is essentially a chance to go and, as someone else said, watch some massive robots fuck each other up. I'm all for it.
Also, Optimus Prime. Didn't know how he'd translate to a long-nose truck with flames down the side, but it looks pretty fucking sweet.

Possibly. Megatron's design though has been p**sed all over. I can understand the idea of him transforming into a pistol a little hard to carry over into the movie, but then what about his other design as a tank? That would have been a lot more sweet than some metal-predator looking robot that turns into yet another jet....

Hell yes.
Somewhat off-topic question: can anyone confirm that there was swearing in the original Transformers movie? Maybe I'm just fabricating this, but I swear one of the autobots actually says 'shit' in the first half-hour of the movie.
