Were the Transformers Homosexuals?

Recommended Posts

^ The same closet that had Cybertron's two moons. Haha.

 

As someone said, it was that final "fuck you" to all of the G1 fans by taking out one of their idols in the most hum-ho of fashions. No fighting, no giant battle, just ZAP! and it's over.

 

Like Prowl's death. He died from being zapped once in the chest, by a shot from Scrapper, a lone Constructacon for crying out loud. At least let Soundwave kill him, or something.

And then Ironhide got shot in the head at point blank range with a bazooka, although it was offscreen.

That one's on my list of movie murder scenes that totally make me mark out.

 

Ironhide feebly grasps at Megatron, who looks at him in disgust and points the tip of his cannon right at his head, and says:

 

"Such heroic NONSENSE."

 

Bang. No more Ironhide.

 

Just tremendous.

that was one thing the movie did right, firmly establish just how evil Megatron is...the regular seasons just kinda made him look like a clumsy, bumbling leader...

They established in season 2 that Optimus Prime and Ironhide at least had girlfriends, they were just in hiding with the other female transformers.

 

The movie was weird in a lot of ways. I've always wondered how Wheeljack and Wind Charger got offed during the battle at Autobot City.

they were victims of an elaborate marketing scheme...

 

I guess the best explanation I can give to the previous poster about someone like Prowl getting easily dispatched by a mere Constructicon is that the Autobots were in an extremely weakened state at that point in time and needed energon in the worst kind of way...

 

Indeed, you really do have to wonder about their sexual preferences since we only see about 4 females throughout the shows entire run...kinda reminds me of the Smurfs...

I hated the Ratchet and Ironhide toys. They were terrible.

Didn't they bring back Starscream as a ghost? (a robot ghost?) Or am I trippin'? Keep in mind I haven't seen an episode since my childhood days. Hmmm. Might be worth a rental.

 

Is it just me or did the Decepticons have WAY better character designs than the Autobots? With the obvious exception of Optimus, and some may say the dinobots (never cared for them.)

 

The Autobots just have a BUNCH of cars, and look pretty uninspired in robot form (except Optimus) compared to guns, jets, construction vehicles, animals, and the giant robots formed out of Constructicons and Predacons. And the Decepticons' boom box was way better than that pansy Autobot piece of crap. They should have just given the Autobots a gramaphone while they were at it.

Yeah, they did, for one episode at least. He kept possessing people, and Galvatron kept shooting them trying to kill Starscream again, it was kinda funny.

 

I seem to be the only one on earth who feels this way, but I actually liked the 2005 version of Transformers more than the original series. Maybe it's just because I thought Rodimus Prime looked cooler than Optimus, I dunno, he also seemed like a more interesting character because he was always so insecure about following in Optimus's footsteps.

 

Anyone ever read the comics? I still own a bunch of those. They were kinda cool, but they seriously suffered from Marvel Syndrome where no character that got killed ever stayed dead.

There was also the episode where Unicron's head came back to life and employed ghosty Starscream to connect the head to Cybertron for use as Unicron's new body, and I think Unicron even resurrected Starscream

 

This is all from memory though and I'm too lazy to look it up

I remember now. Before Starscream is going to connect Unicron's cables with the central cables to Cybertron, he demands Unicron resurrect him. Unicron does so, and Starscream says "Fuck you!" and takes off.

Nah, they had some big ass gangbangs on Arcee every now and then.

You know Optimus was tappin' that ass.

I always thought she must have felt sore every now and then. Oh, and of course Optimus was nailing her. They didn't call him Optimus *Prime* for nothin'.

The Autobots had giant robots too... Superion ruled j00. Period. Then again, they also had Computron, which I believe made Grimlock smart....or, Grimlock was made smart and built Computron or something. I need to visit the TF Encyclopedia again.

correct on the second part, Rando...he was made "smarter" by some lab explosion, he was actually talking in that "British Scholar" type accent and created the Technobots...

 

the Decepticons had the kick ass Gestalts though...pretty much all of them: Devastator, Bruticus, Predaking, Menasor...the only one that was lame was Abominus...

I was pretty fond of Shockwave...Predaking was pretty fucking cool though, unfortunantly he was only in maybe 2 episodes...now that I think about it, was Devastator in ANY episode of Season 3? I know the Constructicons were, but I don't think they ever appeared as Devastator...

off the top of my head, I can't remember devastator making a big appearance in season three. It seems like that season was all about Predaking and Abominus.

I was always fond of Cyclonus from season 3. He had an amazing jet mode. Shockwave was another favorite. I think in the movie, he was supposed to be seen being killed off by unicron, but it was never put in.

eh, like I said, Predaking was hardly featured...the predaCONS were featured a lot, but hardly ever as Predaking...it was mostly Abominus with Menasor and Bruticus thrown in from time to time as background characters...for the Autobots it was Defensor and Computron...again, marketing...

 

Check out the episode "Call Of The Primatives" from Season 3...best animated episode of the entire series including the movie...it almost looks like they hired a whole different animation staff just for that one episode...the story sucked, but hey...

 

I dunno about Cyclonus. If any Transformer seemed gay, it was certainly him...that guy was way too into being submissive (always getting beaten up by his master) for my liking...if Starscream defined "Leader's Bitch", Cyclonus perfected it...

You can actually read the 1st draft of the movie at TF Archive. In it, as Shockwave is barking orders to the Decepticons, he looks out the window to see Unicron's giant hand coming at his tower. The tower is then crushed and thrown into space, I believe. So yeah, I think he was supposed to die (he doesn't appear, except discolored in huge group shots in Season 3, so I think you could consider him dead as of that battle).

The animation in Call of the Primitives was awesome, the best animation of the entire series. I think the episode Dweller in the Depths had very good animation as well.

Megatron had Soundwave as his super loyal guy similar to the Cyclonus/Galvatron relationship. But the latter's relationship went farther. You could tell especially in the Webworld episode, it seems like Cyclonus really cared for(or even loved)Galvatron when his personality was going to be wiped out.

I always hated that verse because he screwed it up saying that Kareem Abdul Jabbar did crossovers.

 

 

Unless he meant like crossover from sports to movies in which case the verse kicks ass again.

Let's just pretend it was from sports to movies so that it kicks ass. Because things that suck suck.
