News Credits: 1 | No. Just because a few people feel sour towards animated doesn't mean the world shares their opinion. Beleive it or not, most kids actually like that style of animation.
It's only fair some won't like it, after the uber-realistic-ness detail and PG-13-goodness of the movie it's hard to go back to the kiddie style so soon. (Though it'll have been roughly a year since when it hits) XBL GT: SPLITTLIP Quote:

It may not be everything you want but if you were 9, you'd skip dinner to watch it. |

If the new cartoon fails to deliver then it fails I don't think it will spell the demise of the franchise. Its hard to tell if the new TF toon will be a hit or not. I myself is not a fan of the Jay Leno type drawings and ala Batman animation style characters. If one things certain its not going to be a classic like G1. |

I think it will keep the "dream" alive and be the G1 to kids these days, that will be on boards like this in the future. |

Thanks for the honest answers and I am glad we can still look forward to more Transformers in the future regardless. I was just thinking about it because of the overall comments. Quote:

Older fans like us will still buy the figures, keeping Transformers alive.

The opposite case which is probable as well would obviously be financially and goodwill inducing to the Transformer brand. Quote:
