    We would lose one shelf clogging yellow camaro, and gain one shelf clogging yellow cheetah!

    But, thats a sacrifice I'd be more than willing to make! It could still be set in the same universe as the bay movies, but I'd like to see it all CG, but REAL nice CG, Avatar style.

    If it were done well enough, I don't see why not - I never gave two craps for the "Trukk Not Munky" mentality, myself. Though it probably would have to be altered somewhat to accommodate the GA and casual fans who only care about the movies, I don't think that'd be unreasonable, either.

    Please no. Any of the Beast series had to be hands down the worst thing to ever happen to transformers.

    Trust me, not fixed. Anything beast wars is epic fail. I praise god that it didn't kill the transformers franchise.

    I don't know. A huge humanoid robot with a gorilla head hanging off of him while he chats to the President might be a little distracting.

    Then again, a giant robot gorilla hanging off the Empire State building, banging his fist while Steve Jablonski music plays in the background might be pretty epic.

    If anything, Beast Wars saved Transformers. If BW flopped, then Transformers would be something like Masters of the Universe now, not a multi-million dollar film franchise with toys and tv shows every year.

    I don't even know what the trukk not munky gang of haters is.

    Yes, I watched the series. Terrible CGI, hell, my girlfriend remembers the show cause one of her art instructors brought in an episode for her class to watch as an example of bad 3d animation.

    Premise was bad, story was bad. I tried to give it a chance but it never grew on me.

    Ok you're trolling not gonna waste my time on you.

    Btw it was 90-ties early CGI weekly show. The fuck did you expect? 2010 Pixar?

    I'm trolling? My opinion differs from yours, get over it. I strongly disagree with you over the story. You find it to be a good show, that's your choosing and your liking. I'm not calling you a troll cause your opinion differs from mine.

    For me it was bad. And no, I didn't except 2010 pixar, especially considering 2010 pixar didn't exist when I watched the series in the early nineties. For its time the CGI was bad. Once again, that's my opinion. Try to not get upset over it.

    If they ever did a beast wars movie, I probably won't be at theatres to see it, but regardless I'd still give it a chance when it released on dvd.

    If a Beast Wars movie was made, it would be the first live action transformer movie I would see. I would love to see the characters I grew up with on the big screen. I do think it could do just as good as the others did. Being honest, Hasbro took a chance to keep Transformers from ending in the mid 90's. The risk paid off as an entire new generation fell in love with characters like Rattrap, Waspinator, and Dinobot and saved the Transformer line from going under.

    If animal transformers could do that back then, if the movie is done right then it can happen again.

    That there is the single biggest problem with the movie industry. There have been a many great potential block busters and award winners that have failed cause it wasn't done right.

    As it's obvious, I don't like Beast Wars, but I agree with this statement. It could potentially big huge, if done right.

    You know, since they had a pretender chick in ROTF, there really isn't any reason that there couldn't be Beast Formers in the movie-verse.

    Personally though, I don't really care too much for the idea. I liked Beast Wars as a show, and I don't completely hate the concept behind it. But I like robots turning into mechanical type alt-modes better.

    I personally don't see a BW film ever really happening. It was kind of one of those things that only really worked for it's time. I don't see the concept really going over big as the premise for a blockbuster film.
    Especially with how cynical most critics are these days, the normal concept for Transformers is probably already pushing it.

    No offense meant here, but how old are you? Are you an older fan, or a younger one. Because honestly, considering the time bw came out, the cg work was freaking phenomenal.. Even now it still hold up fairly well. Don't get me wrong, it isn't tfp good, but the animation of bw only got better and better as the series progressed. Im not saying you're wrong for disliking the show, to each their own, but bad animation is a bad argument.

    Older fan, I watched Beast Wars back in the day when it was actually aired. You're welcome to enjoy the animation. I'm just saying that even to me, back then, the cg wasn't that great. If the animation got better as it progressed I don't know, I gave the show about half a season and just couldn't get into it one bit. I generally found myself distracted cause I wasn't intrested in what I was seeing.

    I won't say it wasn't a great show to some people, it definately was. I just wasn't one of those people. I'm sorry to say, i disagree that bad animation is a bad argument. It's one of the reasons I disliked the show.

    I was in high school when BW came out so I think that's why it didn't go over well with me. Too many other things to worry about lol.
