SQL?

It had to do with a font I was using in my post. I found a workaround and the post is now up!

Pretty much everyone here hates those films.

As for Ascoobis, I'm waiting on IRE.

Are you talking to anyone of us in particular?

Visually, they were okay. The CGI was phenomenal(If a little too generic), but they overdid it with the explosions and weird camera angles, and mistakes in visual and audio editing.

Story-wise, its the most inconstant, plothole-ridden, and terrible written cinematic universe that I really know of. They show no love or understanding for the characters. Character development is almost nonexistent to the point everyone is in 2D(Especially the villains). The problems, not matter how earth-shattering(literally in the fifth) are resolved and the 99th age-old conspiracy that the series has been leading up to is solved....again....until the next big conspiracy....

That's all I came here for, to check to make sure. :p Leaving, I may check in to read the RP from time to time.

Are you sure? We'd love to have you around in the RP. It's easy to join. :)

So, I guess it's okay if I post my arrival on the bridge?

Yeah, it's cool. IRE is having some technical issues but he'll be good to go tommorow or thr day after.

Also, I agree with your thoughts on the movies. I'm not a "GEEWUNNER" who thinks that anything that's not G1 sucks, though of course I do dislike some installments of it. I do like most versions though, other than the movies the only one I strongly dislike is Kiss Players, but I think that everyone agrees that that's actually worse than anything Bay ever did.

I do like most versions though, other than the movies the only one I strongly dislike is Kiss Players, but I think that everyone agrees that that's actually worse than anything Bay ever did.

I'll be sure to post tomorrow then. Should I just burst in or wait until whatever dialogue your characters are having is finished?

I'm no Gewunner either. I'm quite open to new ideas if done in a smart way, and as I've said before, my preferred series was Prime. I felt it was the perfect mix of impressive animation, intriguing evolving characters, and an almost series of solid story arcs. Those are concepts I'd love to see come to cinematic universe. Unfortunately I see that they blow too much of the budget on gunpowder and on how the movie and robot looks rather than on how well-written and consistent to existing canon its story is.(They've changed Bumblebee's and Megatron's forms five times already and they're still pretty much the same characters as when we met them in 2007) And even there they have work arounds(They constantly use the same character models. in TF5 Canopy and Onslaught are almost exact copies of Longhaul, Grindor is a copy of Blackout's model, Nitro Zeus is almost Shockwave, Berserker is Crankcase, Dreadbot is Crowbar, and clones of many Decepticon characters, like Sideways, Brawl,and Longhaul are seen throughout the Battle in Chicago. Let's not mention the two/three varieties of "Deception Drone". Talk about having quantity over quality.....).

But there's hope. TLK was received poorly in the US compared to AoE and got most of its profits from China. Hopefully that kick some sense into Hasbro's head on what to do with Unicron(If anything, he's the victim in this universe. He's the one being attacked without providing any provocation, after all) in TF6.

Okie-Dokie. Since it's so soon, should I just wait for you to post before continuing?
