    Well, see, here I just can't avoid the easy Bay dig.. I actually can't think of any other way to say it.

    If the storyless clusterbombs we were given did, I suppose alien mutants will for them as well. /shrug

    Who cares? It's an 80s cartoon. Why do you keep posting about things you hate about G1?

    Regarding 1984forever's complaints:

    Shakespeare's works have been adapted and updated many, many times. We've got versions of Shakespeare which didn't require ancient or medieval settings, and where the cast wasn't required to dress up in Elizabethan garb - or required to be white, English actors. We even have versions of Shakespeare where at least part of the dialogue has been updated.

    Why should Transformers be exempt from being updated? If Hasbro is still cranking out Transformers 50 years from now, don't you think they need to adapt to what would be current in that time period?

    Oh, wow, that is a perfect response to that. I guess they DID turn him into a damn dirty ape at some point.

    I'm betting that 1984forever is much much younger than he wants us to think.

    Eeh - it's one guy's deeply-rooted opinion. Why waste the effort and brain cells trying to change it when you know you never will?
