And what an enjoyable roller coaster ride of an action fest it was. And to think i thought the movie was gonna suck because of the un - G1ishness of it all.
Then I realized something. The G1 era was over. Time to move on. By wanting the movie to be like I remembered it in my childhood, it wouldn't have been a good fit for today's world. Times change, and as proven with the TFs, they've undergone the most compared to any series out there. I enjoyed the G1 era for what it is, and I can understand the decision to make it more relevant. And they did pay homage to the G1 characters so its not entirely a lost cause. Design changes were definitely gonna play a huge part in that.
That being said, Its still has its good and bad moments. For the so called 'G1 fanatics' and 'Bayhaters', I seriously hope that you give the movie a chance. Maybe you'll still hate it, maybe you won't. But if you still consider yourself TF fans, then at least give it a go. Its not a thought-provoking movie by far, but definitely the most action packed out of all the other summer movies I catched. Bottom line is - giant effin' robots beating the crap out of each other has to be the main draws of a TF movie right?
Gotta go now.... I can probably expect some amount of hate mail sent my way from people reading this post......
Til next time,
