Transformers (cartoons)

You're only speaking out of anger because he replaced Optimus.

Nope , I liked him in film when he did replace Optimus but for mer personally all of season 3 sucked. in regular cartoon Rodimus just got on my nerves it was like WOW he's so bland and boring.
 
*shudder*.....i hate rodimus..i mean if he didnt get in the way Prime would have lived.

I just don't like the charracter at all. The fact he got in the way was ok but damn he just annoys me. I would of rather they put Bumble bee in charge than Rodimus

Agreed,I mean rodimus came out of nowhere

Optimus was partially to blame, too. There was a large amount of Megatron's body sticking out from behind Hotrod, he could had shot at that. But, I guess the poor guy's optic sensors were starting to go at his old age.

Yep , the movie and season 3 was made to launch new toy line , thats why they got rid of so many people and brought in lame transformers.

I liked all of the new characters in the animated movie, I just wasn't too keen about all of their vehicles modes looking so futuristic... every era before the 90's had such a grand interpretation of technology and society in the future, silly cave-people.

New poster of new cartoon = Same pic but has decepticons added to the back

 
I've watched Transformers Cybertron every morning for the past month. The last episode was today, (in my defense not many things are on at six in the morning).

I was appauled at how bad the storylines were, how cliche everything was, and the animation, man I couldn't tell one bot from another. It was horrible.

I think this new one will be in the same vein
 
Cybertron was bad , I think this new one might just be a nice surprise , looked bad until i saw clip and thought "that's not as bad i thought , might be good"

The following profiles are the characters in the television series Transformers: Animated.

AUTOBOTS

Bulkhead
Designed for demolition, Bulkhead is a one-bot wrecking crew. He's great in battle, but sometimes Bulkhead doesn't know his own strength. He may look like one mean machine, but he's really a softy at heart.

Bumblebee
Bumblebee is the youngest and least mature of the Autobots. He's a bit of a showoff and always acts on impulse. The fastest of the Autobots, Bumblebee is always rushing into situations without thinking.

Optimus Prime
Optimus is a young commander of the Autobots. He's a born leader who is humble, fearless, and friendly. Armed witha rocket-powered laser axe, Prime knows how to handle himself in battle.

Prowl
Silent and stealthy, Prowl prefers to let his actions do the talking. He's a natural spy that can infiltrate any location unseen and unheard. Prowl's jump jets allow him short bursts of flight.

Ratchet
He's short-tempered, grizzled and seemingly older than the AllSpark itself. Ratchet is the team's medic. He may be an expert healer, but his bedside manner is a bit rusty.

Sari

She's the outspoken daughter of the brilliant scientist Isaac Sumdac. Sari has a mysterious key that came from the AllSpark. The key gives her a special bond with the Autobots

DECEPTICONS

Megatron
Megatron is the ruthless leader of the Decepticons. He demands unquestioning loyalty from those who serve him. Armed with a destructive fusion cannon, Megatron takes pleasure in the suffering of the Autobots.

Starscream
Megatron's scheming second-in-command would like nothing better than to take control of the Decepticons. Starscream's powerful nullray cannons and incredible speed make him a dangerous opponent.

The reason why TF Cybertron sucks *** because it was a badly-written anime show that was dubbed badly and forced into continuity with the previous series (in Japan it was rebooted).

This on the other hand is something Cartoon Network actually put money and quality on, and is purely made in America. I'm not knocking anime, but the Japanese has been doing it poorly for TFs. I see this as the return of good storytelling and characters which I missed since Beast Wars.

I was thrown back the character designs too. But after seeing the toys and they are the most show-accurate toys ever made in TF history, I'm impressed. I also like the concept here that they won't let the Decepticons show up in every episode. I mean it would be lame if Megs loses in every episode right? They're going to make the 'Cons a more threatening force which will only be undermined if they lose every time.

I'm the only one watching this?

I'm pretty satisfied with it. The idea of the Decepticons making appearances every once in a while is working pretty well, with Megatron, Starscream and Soundwave proving a good threat. (Though the B-villains they made up when they don't show up arren't giving them much competetion...)

The only major complaint I have is the B-villains (the Blight wannabe was just stupid) and the
implied Optimus Prime and Blackarachnia romance.
