I have a question....out of all the continuities, who was actually the best leader (good or evil) of the Transformers?
>>
>>94412144
Bay Prime. Or Murder Prime.
>>
Animated Ultra Magnus

It may have happened before the start of the cartoon, but Magnus was the one who led the Autobots to victory and ended the Great War, reducing the Decepticon forces to scattered pockets of guerillas and what not.

And when he ended the war, it DIDN'T result in the death of Cybertron

>>94416492
Five was fucking unwatchable

I don't udnerstand how anyone could rank it above anything.

2 and 4 sucked dick too but 4 had two decent scenes: Megatron's confrontation with Optimus was p. cool and I unironically enjoyed seeing Optimus ride Grimlock into battle. The dynamic shift was somewhat interesting. not enough to save the movie from everything else wrong with it but seeing discord among the autobot ranks from being tired of fighting was at teals an okay concept

Four was utter shit and here I am feeling nostalgic about it because 5 was so bad. The British chick was great eye candy at least I guess.

I liked the idea that each side's ship had such extensive defenses, and they were so evenly matched that neither side had the firepower to assault the other's base, but the writers too often ignored that the Maximals should actually be trying to win the war instead of merely surviving.

And this:

Confirming the previous info, Hasbro confirmed a Transformers Animated Theatrical Feature Film during their annual Investor Day today.

Hasbro owned Boulder Media Studio will produce the movie along with other animated films for My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic and Stretch Armstrong.

Hasbro is set to deliver at least one Animated movie each year to the theater. Release date for the Transformers movie was not revealed during the event.

However, based on the comment by the Writers’ Room, the movie will explore the origin myth of the Transformers linking with the Live Action Movie Series.

Update: When inquired more on the Animated Feature Film during the Q&A session, Hasbro confirmed that the movie is based on the current Movieverse. Hasbro will partner with Paramount Pictures via their own Allspark Pictures.
>>
So,Transformers Universe:Bumblebee finally got a new release date. December 21st, 2018. Same date as Aquaman.

Was that really the best date they could find? Aquaman will beat it opening weekend and then Mary Poppins will probably do good business the week after.

I know there's no escaping good movies but I think they could've found a better date. But, Christmas is getting turned into the second blockbuster season so it may have better chance of being successful if it's a good movie. At the very least, it's got a much better shot than it's previous spot where it was gonna get destroyed.

A while back they had plans for a half CGI half live action Littlest Pet Shop movie, and a Monopoly movie, yet no word of those since they were first mentioned

Micronauts thread when? For the new cartoon.
>>
In AoE, Lockdown spouts a ton of crap that turned out to be totally wrong by the time TLK came around.

He mentions taking centuries to collect all the knights, but he's only got Prime and the Dinobots, and we see the rest of the knights were hiding out on Earth. So he was wrong about that, and then his comments about the Creators plural imply he was working for someone other than Quintessa, who didn't at all seem to have a problem of "species mixing with species" and wasn't concerned with "wiping the chessboard clean" as Lockdown put it.

I know realistically it was probably the Writer's Room saying "screw it" and throwing all that out, but now it feels like a huge disconnect between AoE and TLK.

Oh,TLK also did nothing to answer who that organic hand at the beginning of AOE was.

>>94425085
I found her story more compelling than the main plot. A victim of the cybertronian wars living in the ruins of a city also a victim of their wars, but finding her own family with Autobots? But then they dumped her and Cade's new buttboy and most of the Autobots for shitty robot Arthurian legends. Then when she shows up again at the end her only real contribution was ordering her little friend on a suicide mission and didn't even have the guts to pull a Lennox from the first movie and ride out there with her scooter pal so she could shoot the cannon in the balls. Poor Blackout. Fucker had it coming, though, it was personal.

Really, Magnus is better than he gives himself credit for, while Grimlock is so bloody-minded he can lead you through swamps of shit.

Decepticons:
Shockwave
Ratbat
Soundwave
Megatron

Megs is actually a pretty shit leader. Shockwave is smarter and sees the bigger picture, Ratbat is a great businessman, and Soundwave is a sneaky fuck.

I miss having heroic protagonists instead of a bunch of murder-happy sociopaths who are nearly as face hungry as Optimus. Hound wasn't too bad, at least. But early on it was only Ironhide and frankly him shooting Sam's parents was something I'm sure we'd all have enjoyed.

In retrospect it makes me pine for the movies where the autobots had zero personality since when they give them personalities they're all mostly insane. At some point you begin to wonder why they're even supposed to be the good guys, especially when they talk about killing humans so much.
>>
>>94423021
One of the reasons Grimlock does nothing in the movies. The whole conflict he has with Prime in the comics is made redundant by Prime being so fucking ruthless even Grimlock would go, "hey, hang on a minute, Prime".

Just putting it out there, but "winning" doesn't necessarily make you a great leader.

Scorponok was more of an idiot savant, I think.

Making that designer virus was, iirc, the ONLY technical thing he ever did. And even that did the exact OPPOSITE of what it was supposed to do.

Other than that, he was basically Waspinator without any memorable character traits.

Kind of a shame. He was the S-I-C, and he had those spy bee drones, he could have easily been the BW equivalent of SOundwave, to go along with Megatron, Terrorsaur and Tarantulus being the Megatron, Starscream and Shockwave

What you need to remember is that Beast Wars was set during a rather unique time for Transformers lore. That is, they were at peace, and had been for centuries. Megatron's sudden dramatic attack and theft of the golden disks was alarming, shocking, and completely unexpected by basically everyone. Even when we get a brief interlude with a shady Predacon council back on Cybertron in a later season, they're talking about how reckless and stupid it was.
Primal's Maximals weren't even a police or military force, they were a band of scientists and explorers that just happened to be in the way of the Predacon ship and tried to slow them down. Optimus doesn't WANT to win the war. He doesn't want a war at all, because it's a horrifying throwback to the most bloody time in their history that lasted for millennia. That's why he's always so reluctant to engage in battle for a good part of the show. He DESPERATELY wants to find a peaceful solution, and it takes Megatron blasting off G1 Optimus Prime's face in the last season for him to really take the gloves off.

Also, of course, it was an episodic cartoon, and winning the war means the show is over.

Not really. In the Allspark Almanac, they revealed a bunch of possible season 4 episode synopses, none of which mention Blackarachnia or any other organic Transformers.

For all we know, they were going to do the exact same thing Prime did with Airachnid and the Insecticons: Teleport them away to get them out of the plot and out of our hair and leave them there to rot.

Personally, I wouldn't even call it a "major" loose end.

BA and Wasp were stranded in an unknown time and place with like no other technology at their disposal. It's not a huge logical leap to assume they just stay stranded there alone forever. It might not be satisfying for you, but hey, that's just how some shit ends up.

For that matter Lennox was pretty damn useless in this. I don't think they know what the hell they were doing.

Hopkins realized that Unicron's horns had been separated by continental drift and they'd originally circled Stonehenge. It was about the only clever thing in the movie.

does anyone else think optimus is the shining definition of cuck?

Hm. That wasn't how I took his reaction when I saw it. When I was watching it I was actually contemplating the possibility that he'd been discovered and replaced by another Alice-former. May have been because of the (it turns out accurate) rumors that Quintessa disguises as a human in the movie. Knowing about Unicron herself and having time to figure how the trail he would follow, or even plant the clues herself, it wouldn't have been a bad way to infiltrate and manipulate the Autobots.

This is objectively correct, they are the only universe where Transformer civilization is basically utopian and there are no factions or warfare of any kind.

The superior Prime

It's still better than the weebs who insist on calling him shit like DESZARASU. This shit has been a point of contention for fans for twenty-some years.

any other OP that his megatron actually lamented he killed him (got sad that he was gone/glad that he came back to life)?
>>
>>94445301
I'm assuming they mean Bayformers Optimus, because of how much shit he takes pff humans but one guy being his friend is enough to turn him against his own race.

The answer is yes. Yes, Bayformers Optimus is the shining definition of an uncle tom mindbroken into humanity's little bitch after having to justify killing so many of his own kind. When Megatron called the planet hell, he was being all too literal.
>>
>>94445946
Was that Armada or RiD? Because Armada Megatron also killed himself for the good of the world, before being resurrected as an insane megalomaniac with a god-complex.
>>
>>94429603
>Movies 2-3 makes a point of showing Megatron being concerned about baby transformers' future
>Movie 4 has him calling his ressurected soldiers comrades instead of minions or slaves or anything like that
>In movie 5, it's Megatron who reminds Optimus they were bros once not the other way around

You can't make this up

3D special efects.

also britbing faggets.

the irony about this last piece of crap is that the story would be with japanese instead britbongs much much better.

but now we got etrnal anglo jerk off and fucking planet crashe where the mother natur ignores the gravition-attarction of the mass double size of Earth and a jew what is blabering about some "planet energy".
>>
>>94446064
That's Armada, anon
>>
>>94446064
Armada. He went kinda mopey after the hydra cannon did what it was supposed to do.

Their final battle in armada was awesome. i like it when mechs really take advantage of being robots (using their own wrecked parts to beat each other to submission).

Despite its faults, I liked Armada. It gave us the best Starscream, and a Unicron figure. Then Cybertron gave us a Primus figure.
>>
>>94446215
Armada would have been 8/10 without the fucking kids. Those annoying shits turned it into 3/10
>>
>>94446337
The adaptation of it was spotty at some points as well.
>>
When's the next TF issues, anyone here know?
>>
>>94446215
Armada Jetfire was pretty based too, especially thanks to Scott McNeil. I was pretty mad when they replaced him in Cybertron.
>>
>>94447808
>Armada Jetfire
You mean the guy who was nothing but a power up for Optimus?
>>
>>94448217
He's had it so much worse. At least he didn't crash into an iceflow and despite being perfectly fine and easy to rescue the others just leave him there because of how little shits they give about him. Also being betrayed by his science boyfriend Starscream.
>>
>>94448217
I mostly liked his personality making him somewhat unique for a second-in-command Autobot made him a nice contrast to the sterner Prime. It made sense to since Jetfire is pretty much the good counterpart to Starscream. It helps he was one of the few Autobots that actually wanted to use the fuck-powerful combiner minicons to end the war.

Also like I said; Scott McNeil.

But Starscream was the good counterpart to Starscream

It looks like we have First Strike #1 and Till All Are One #12 to look forward to.

Galvatron from the Beast Wars II Anime is knocked out comatose or completely piss-drunk for half his series but his master plan still manages to run rings around the Maximals and very nearly achieved a complete, perfect victory. Dude's intense.

I'm surprised nobody has ever made a Transformers version of that reaction image. Using either Overlord or I guess one of the Legions from Kiss Players? Either would be suitably horrifying.

TFs are not mechs, really
They're basically people who just happen to be made out of metal and machinery as opposed to flesh and bone

Unless you go by Japan's weird ass G1 extension series, in which case they promptly turned everyone into fucking mecha because for some reason, if it's a robot, it has to have a pilot, even if the pilot is just a smaller robot.

>internal explosions rip Optimus apart with an obvious line of energy arcing out of his crotch

Damn, son, Transformer orgasms are dope but I see why they just stick with budding. It's only slightly less agonizing/horrifying.
>>

Not even once, for me.
>>
>>94451033

Good designs but stupid fucking lore is pretty much what I took from Japanese G1. And just trying to read some of their more current lore is fucking ridiculous because they're bending over backwards trying to make shit fit their already backwards lore that no one else follows.
>>
>>94412144
IDW Megatron.
It literally took a sapient dead universe to just temporarily cripple him.He's intelligent, charismatic, and most importantly a really good speaker so his troops be it through admiration of intimidation, mostly followed orders (all save for Starscream and even more so Thundercracker). Both he and his forces would have defeated the autobots otherwise. Optimus was pretty much fucked up until D-void popped out of nowhere.
>>
>>94451097
I have no qualms with Japanese Transformers toys, because as you mentioned they make some cool designs now and again, but as far as fiction/media goes I stay far away from it
>>
>>94451097
It's not like non-Transformers G1 lore is all that great. Not that I'm trying to be insulting. Might be my nostalgia gland but I love G1, goofy warts and all. The inconsistencies, the animation errors, even Brawl's brain.

Honestly it's pretty damn hard to find any TF lore that isn't vulnerable to claims of being fucking stupid on some level or other.
>>
>>94450829
Only for one show, and that still had regular transformers in it.
>>
>>94451159

Oh thats true. Just I consider the Japanese stuff even weirder because it goes from a goofy sci-fi robot show from the US straight into MOST HONAHRABOU COMMANDER-SAN MUST GATTAI WITH DOUBLE REBORN OPTIMUS RION TO DEFEAT THE GREAT EVIL...And whatever.

Like, it doesn't even pretend to follow whatever came before it, it just goes straight off the deep end into anime tropes.
>>
>>94451214
I think that's perfect. The US takes shit like Dairugger and decides, hey, let's just make it Voltron with cars and shit. Meanwhile Japan sees Transformers and decide, "Hey, this could really use some breastforce, you know what I'm saying guys?"
>>
>>94451159
Most of the Japanese G1 stuff can be considered non canon to the Western
>>
>>94451285
No arguments from me, but honestly canon in transformers is always pretty iffy anyway, especially the further back you go. Frankly it seems a tad more Serious Business these days, or at least it sort of did during the rise of the Prime continuity family until it quickly became apparent that continuity was more of a very rough outline than a strict roadmap.

Weirdest G1 moment is still probably Munka Spanka Jazz winning the space robot Olympics.
>>
>>94451371
Also sad because we'd lost the Scatman.
>>
>>94451388
Saddest part of Transformers G1 is we never had Jazz singing those sweet Cybertron blues demanding Megatron set his people free.

Since nothing else is going on in this thread at the moment I have to admit I hear IDW Jazz as classic G1 Scatman Jazz. Dude just wants to share the music in his spark with the universe and his last chance at peace on Earth seems to have been a complete bust.

I'm sure there are still people upset Megatron wasn't convinced to help them save the day. Bonus points for the badguys just wanting to destroy Unicron, I guess, whom the good guys technically saved.

At least he got to pull a, "Decepticons! Let's get the fuck out of here!" Must have felt good for Frank, just for old times sake.

That is such a fucking understatement. 5 was objectively shit. And 4 was effortless "fuck you, I can do what I want" trash.

8/10 with or without starscream?

because if it's 8/10 because of starscream but no kids it presents a paradox
>>
Transformers The Last Knight was the best movie ever. Masterpiece.
>>
>>94454541
not that anon but with starscream and without muh handstiched towel and the xenofucker loli id say 7.5/10
>>
>>94444159
Huh, I don't recall that being in there at all.

>HER army of PRedacons
In this case, part of me is glad it ended. The idea of BA being the leader of the Predacons disgusts me.
Although I suppose she COULD have been teleported to a planet populated by organic transformers and she just gets accepted into the fold by a BW Megs expy
>>
>>94453381
I dunno. That sounds like something Starscream would do.

Megatron was not the leader of the Predacons. He was just a random criminal using Megatron's name.
>>
>>94455160
Yes, and that is relevant because...?
>>
>>94455195
Because you don't like the idea of BH being the leader of the Predacons because muh Megatron even when he was not their leader in BW.
>>
>>94454717

It might be austistic since i'm a huge BW fan but I don't like the BW being alongside classic G1 styled characters. I always consider these characters the future.
