Terribly disappointed of Beast Machines

SpriteSODA · 08-11-2007, 07:21 PM

Hi guys,
Recently I've finished watching the Beast Wars series, and it simply rocked - the great story line, the references to G1, the amazing voice acting and so on.
Excited and eager for more, I started watching Beast Machines. Man, what a let down. I've only watched the first 4 episodes, but I can already understand that this is not the same thing. the new robot modes of our fellow comrades looks disgusting, un-transformers like, everything is too chaotic and disoriented, and Megatron stopped saying "Yesssss!".

Am I nuts? should I just keep watching hoping its going to improve?

Thx.

Your not nuts...Beast Machines started out great, but quickly became a terrible terrible show.

Everybody is dissapointed in Beast Machines, though for varying reasons.

I hope you like bickering. Lots and lots of bickering. Because that's what you get in Beast Machines.

I thought it ended well. and i really liked beastchanger and obsidion.

I'd say, don't set your expectations too high, and you might end up liking it. The ending is pretty weak though; everything leading up to it was really cool, but man ... you'll see what I'm talking about if you keep watching it.

Yeah, pretty much. It could have been so much better than it was. I liked that it was much darker than anything seen in Transformers before...but there was just so much wrong with it, I felt horribly let down in the end.

yup its such a shame, I already miss Megatron saying yessss, brushing his T-Rex's teeth and playing with a rubber duck =P
