Screw Transformers; when are we going to get a modern Gundam flick that doesn't suck? G-Saviour was terrible.

Oooooo! A movie based on a CARTOON! We've certainly come leagues since the cinematic medium was developed, haven't we? I only hope this will be as good as the Power Rangers movies and those wonderful Pokemons.

I always thought transformers were lame. They should bring back micronauts, 'cause they were cool.
And when will we see the next Thunderbirds movie? That's what the geek-American community really wants to know.

The will ONLY tehy will make money is if they use the original series, and original characters, including the original Megatron, who turned into a P-38 pistol with scope, stock and silencer.
Of course in the original series, there is a nice gap between season 2 and TF Movie/season 3 (1985-2005) to play around with.

Hmmmm...certainly there is more than meets the eye, here.
Transformers was probably the best comic book based on a toy line of its era, with GI Joe coming up later and having a good run. Transformers comics eclipsed the toy line and was much better than it had any right being!

I always liked Optimus Prime's style. Brave, determined, and supremely confident without a touch of arrogance. Most heroes these days come of as being either so good that they're preachy and obnoxious, completely lame, or so angst ridden that they're not really all that heroic. Optimus Prime never felt anyone's pain or wrestled with inner demons; he simply fought with unyielding conviction, and without malice.
Try watching Captain Planet, Pokemon or just about any of the other cartoons out these days, and you'll see the difference. (Although I am a big fan of Justice League and Samurai Jack)

Everyone just curious. What is you favorite one-liner from the TF Movie.
My favorite one-liner is, Springer saying, "I have better things to do tonight than die."
