Optimus Prime

[Bobzeaux]

I'm not even talking about the "outdated" vehicles. I'm talking about how needlessly complicated they made the robots.

"how can you compare the variation in a SUIT as compared to a full fledged ROBOT."

Very easily. They somehow made Iron Man look realistic (which is even harder than a Transformer, considering how much bulkier the suit would have to be to cover a human body), and they still made him look almost exactly like the comic Iron Man, and it was great. Couldn't the do the same for TFs?

let's not mix metaphors here. iron man is a super hero..a HUMAN wearing a suit, so elements like certain vehicles becoming outdated doesn't count.

And also how can you compare the variation in a SUIT as compared to a full fledged ROBOT.

note my comparisms are only in the response to the "it should look like g1" argument, not the FACT that the movie had a weak story..i think that the juvenility of the plot is without question.

A. The voice actor who did Spider-Man isn't anywhere NEAR as iconic as Cullen's Prime.

B. Peter Parker was a genius. If the script called for artificial web-shooters (although it does make more sense to make them part of his power set), they could have done it in such a way to make it believable.

Since we're apparently talking about Marvel heroes now, the treatment of Iron Man is what they needed to do with TF; obviously update it, but still keep it in the same vein as the source material.

i see you like a good argument just as much as I do...riddle me this.."if" the voice actor from the spiderman 90's cartoon "actually looked" like spiderman and they casted him in the movie, do you think for THAT reason alone, they would have used the mechanical web shooters, even if its IMPRACTICAL, for a college student to be able to make it. C'mon man, some sort of logic must be applied.

[Bobzeaux]

NOW I'm getting somewhere? I've been saying this ever since the movie came out. :S

Did it need to be a G1 movie? No, not at all. If it needs to be a G1 movie, it's only because they used so many G1 characters (including the Witwickies) that don't appear in other incarnations, and they used Peter Cullen to reprise his role as Optimus Prime. Any talented voice actor could have played him, but if Cullen is used, only THEN does it need to be a G1 movie.

[vincymon]

well..now you're getting somewhere--instead of the "its not g1 style, so it must be retarded" complaint i've been hearing all the time.

[Bobzeaux]

I haven't seen Speed Racer in either medium, so all I can do is take your word for it.

I can accept change, so long as it's still the property it's supposed to be. I.E.-Tim Burton's Batman VS. Chris Nolan's Batman. They're both different, but still the same character.

The movie would make me feel like Transformers is retarded because the writing is juvenile, the TFs as characters are meaningless, and the humans don't even need the Autobots' to help fight the Decepticons, so what's the point?

[vincymon]

why would it make you feel transformers is retarded, because it has CHANGED, did you see the speed racer movie, people hated because it LOOKED too much like a cartoon! the speed racer movie was exactly like the cartoon and was hated for that!

"have you seen "mirasol twins" do you think we would have seen any of their great stop motions if optimus looked like 1980's"

Given their extensive talents in stop-motion, I would sure as hell HOPE so. The toys are WAY more dumbed down (and realistic) than their movie counterparts. You'd really not look at it if it were the same thing, but with movie classic-looking toys (with the same articulation and animation potential)?
