    Bonaventura: Pet Detective. Sorry, that one's been eating at me for awhile.

    You can keep the maximals, just make them actually important to the plot. I've harped on this before, but the whole thing about Scourge and his crew is that they are too powerful for the Autobots to take on alone... So adding in the Maximals could have evened the odds. Get rid of the crappy...

    Don't forget that Hot Rod has a flame motif going on, so his name has a double meaning.

    RotF just doubled down on everything I disliked about 2007. Even more juvenile humor (I spent that movie just non-stop going "really?") even more meaningless characters, more ridiculousness with the parents. DotM was better, but man Bay really can't stop being Bay. "Deep Wang" good lord. AoE...

    Concepts and Character arcs to fold into a rebooted G1.

    I would have definitely liked to have worked Junkion and Lithone into things, but I do like the number 13 having cultural significance to Transformers. Junkion definitely feels like a non-colony that's too stubborn to die out: without a source of new sparks, they just learned to recycle...

    Concepts and Character arcs to fold into a rebooted G1.

    The thing about colonies is space is BIG. You could literally drop a hundred colonies throughout the galaxy and never, ever have them interact and it wouldn't be outlandish. And that's not even getting into intergalactic travel. Anywho, my ideal 12 colonies (Each founded by a "Forge Titan"...

    Really, the biggest issues with Rodimus Prime is 1. Hot Rod is written to be responsible for Optimus getting got 2. He spends almost all of Season 3 being mopey about not being as good as Optimus, and then when he finally reaches some character growth and is able to move past that, they...

    The problems I have with the first movie: 1. The Transformers aren't characters. Bumblebee is limited by the radio gimmick, the Autobots are basically two dimensional and the Decepticons aren't even that. 2. Way too juvenile: Bumblebee pissing on a dude, the "Sam's happy time" conversation...

    Concepts and Character arcs to fold into a rebooted G1.

    I'd keep the 13, at least as examples of alternative religions to Primus. (Primus worshippers, as they take over the planet, eventually fold other religions into their own by making their dieties "The 13." So you're still free to worship, say, Solus Prime, so long as you acknowledge she's a...

    I don't disagree that it's probably the best live action film and is a very good movie overall.

    In case you guys don't know

    I like transformers bunches. Like probably more than anything that isn't a person. I could NOT imagine liking Transformers so much I need an e-mail every time a news article is posted. :D

    Bumblebee is basically "What if we took this first movie and slid the knob away from 'Michael Bay' and back more towards 'Stephen Spielberg' and whoops we basically just remade ET, only with a big transforming robot. Also we got a bit of Iron Giant in there somehow?"

    Better to think of them like the greek gods (who were all up in everyone's business and were generally flawed and terrible and in-faught constantly) than mysterious old ones.

    I'm be more okay with painted windows if they had the paint budgets to actually paint all of the windows. (Looking at you, Studio Series Brawn)

    Well, aligned Prima isn't really an Optimus Prime arch-type, what with him basically being the party's uptight rules paladin.

    The problem with Hot Rod in the film is that the movie isn't that well written, so instead of, you know, SHOOTING MEGATRON with those arm blasters he has, he had to interfer in a way that gets Prime killed. Like, what if Megatron shot Prime BEFORE Hot Rod got there and it was Hot Rod's...

    Did we ever find out if Hasbro was indeed retiring the "Generations" branding with Age of the Primes?

    I hated the twist when I first saw it, but I love it now. I had such a wave of confusion when it was first revealed and it's rare to get that strong of a emotional reaction from a superhero movie. The twist of making the "Mandarin" such a blatantly artificial character - He's middle...

    Given how many people I see complaining about the price of that set, I'm not sure I agree. Especially since the numbers for the Haslab were actually improving before this news hit.
