Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
ShangLuda Admirable film.
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
jack blurr transformers g1 is the first incarnation of the transformers in television history, and the beloved show of all fans, if you ask someone what is the best transformers show, they say g1, and that's it, no hesitation whats so ever, but is it really that good?, can some one watch it right now and admit that it is awesome?, the answer to that is unfortunately no, yup, you just read that, no. transformers g1 benefits from its 80's era where many of the TV shows where a 20 minute advertisement for their toy lines: GI Joe a real American hero, teenage mutant ninja turtles and many others, fans love g1 because they remember holding that optimus prime action figure while watching that episode where he kicks the decepticons butts which is really what happens in almost every episode, characters come in and die just like that for the sake of selling toys, there are so many characters and i mean so many, you get like 20 of theme in just the first episode( you can count them), i do find certain guilty pleasure watching this, and there are some good episodes here and there, but the transformers is far, so far from being perfect, it has a good animation and some good stories but so many were wasted. it is better than so many incarnations but definitely does not match transformers series such as beast wars, animated, or transformers prime, and this is where the problem kicks in, people bash all the other transformers iterations as they are not as good as g1, but the problem is they will never be pleased as g1 is the first, g1 is the cartoon they grew up with, period, they even bash transformers prime as is not as good as g1, really?, really?, yeah. i know that this review is gonna get some hate, but from an objective point you all know what im talking about, go watch a random episode from g1, animated, prime and beast wars and tell me which one is the best and which one is the weakest, i kinda feel sorry for Hasbro for trying to please the transformers fandom throughout the years and god most of them are unbelievable children dressed in a 40 year-old body.
TheLittleSongbird I love this series, it was a childhood favourite and I still am a fan of it. The animation is decent enough with the odd understandable inconsistency, with the robots wonderful to watch and the backgrounds and colours quite bold and fitting. The music is great, memorable while with an essence of complexity in some of the orchestration, the narrative is cool and does justice to some outstanding if simple story ideas. The writing is intelligent and humorous, in short enough to satisfy anybody who watches the show, and the characters are some of the memorable characters in a cartoon series for me, especially Megatron and Optimus Prime. This is helped hugely by a top notch vocal cast with Frank Welker and Peter Cullen born for their roles. All in all, an excellent cartoon that has something for everyone. 10/10 Bethany Cox
SuPeRCrAzYoi Overrated and only for those people in their 20's whom wear particularly thick rose tinted glasses, who never actually saw it in the first place because they were to young. Awful animation, dialogue and a tired narrative. A real product of the 80's, the novel gimmick of a puzzle TOY (thats right, TOY not the absurd, pretentious and child alienating "collectors action figurine"), sold on the back of a poor cartoon and other paraphernalia, only matters to those who bought the TOY when they were "actual" children in the period of '84' to '87'. It Has become cult because of those same adults are to immature to let go of their memories. Avoid.
Aaron1375 Transformers, for me were the coolest toys as you could actually do something with them, hey they transformed. The cartoon was a very good compliment to said toys. It followed the story of the Autobots who were good and the Decepticons who were well not good. They raged most of their battles on earth and the show was at its best during the first season and parts of the second season. The ones that occurred after the movie were pretty good, but then I thought the headmaster and target master miniseries that would mark the end of the Transformers generation one was very weak as it was nothing but one big toy commercial and featured many Transformers that were never introduced before playing a rather large role. My favorite episodes usually involved the Decepticons called Constructicons. Six robots that formed the super robot Devastater. They were my favorite toys as a kid and I actually still have them. The show was not without other problems than just the weak ending. A lot of problems stem from problems with the plot and origins of some of the robots. Apparently, they didn't think a kid could remember how a robot was introduced so they created a new origin. Such as Devastator. Clearly introduced in season one as being created on earth they would in a later episode show them having been on Cybertron and they were good guys no less. Also, it was clearly shown you could make a new transformer on earth, but in later episodes it was shown you had to use a special device to infuse them with personality. Still, the problems were not enough to steer me away from this cool cartoon.
