Armada I'm pretty much neutral to, I liked a coupla characters, but the show was more rush-production'd into oblivion than G1 was. Cybertron was a'ight. It started off meh, but as it went on and the dub actors basically started MST3K-ing the whole thing, it became thoroughly enjoyable. Still, if you like that series, you should really talk to Scourge.
No freakin' way, seriously? I thought
I was the only one who liked BM!! Ok, this is getting weird now...
Yeah, I got the rushed feel from Armada after the third episode. In fact, I remember that week well as it was the week when both Star Trek and Transformers both became unwatchable to me. I was watching Armada and Optimus Prime had called Sparkplug Leader-1 and two seconds later the VERY NEXT LINE OF DIALOGUE had Megatron address his mini-con as Leader-1. I gave up trying to count how many levels of editing should have caught that. Then that same week the Borg were on Enterprise. It was all very distressing
. At least Enterpsise had the perfect ending to explain it's unwatchability... Riker walks out of the TNG holodeck, says "End program" and everything disappears. BAM!! Etcha-sketch! Never happened!
I liked what I've seen of Cybertron so far, but I need to finish watching it. I bought the DVDs, but then my birthday rolled around and I had to start watching G1 again (as I do every year on my birthday), a marathon that starts with G1 and doesn't end until I get through everything TF. I'm so behind this year, I'm not even through disc 2 of BW.
Anyway, back to hauls (so as not to get TOO far off topic
) got Mixmaster yesterday and spent today transforming him. And I'll review that in the reviews thread. Now I have to track down Demolishor and Rampage. I'm going to try to make a G1-esque movie Devastator out of them.
