A fan made Season 4? A Transformers Fanimated, if you will. A whole series comprised of maybe 10 minute episodes, continuing from the end of season 3. Whoever is interested, please post below with comments and ideas (not story plot based). If you want to contribute, please post on my actual page with what you'd be interested in doing (story, character design, voice acting, etc.). Of course, I don't know if this will take off or even begin, but just a general idea of how you guys would feel would be nice.
Well, I can help you make some plotlines/storyline/standalone story's if you want. Iv'e had some crazy idea's in my head.
You know there's already something like this. http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/trans...4-what-happens-next-season-4-round-robin.html Just drop by and see and add to the story.
Story and VA. But I'm anal about story, and refuse to give in to "fan demands" ... like bringing Blurr back from the dead, or renaming Female Starscream, or anything like that.
I can voice act whenever, but that's about it. Don't feel like touching the story with my own writing. I'd be interested to see what we could pull off though, especially if you get Kickback writing.
I know bout that thread. commented a coupla times, but i'm talking about making an actual cartoon continuation not driven by spontaneous thoughts and ideas, but a thorougly planned concept. totally agree. Blurr's death, however tragic, can't be changed or whatev. while i do enjoy pleasing fans with little g1 homages or characters, the set story shouldn't be altered in such drastic manners.
I was toying with ideas and plot ideas for a 4th season. I wasn't going to bring Blurr back either, doing so misses out on the chance for some character development with Bumblebee. I was probably also going to give Sentinel Prime some kind of eventual redemption, he's a great character but he's at the point where he's either got to improve himself or go downhill. At any rate, I'd be happy to discuss and bounce of various character and plot ideas and maybe write some plots. I could even do some character designs as well. But, I don't have the skill to properly animate anything so I can't really help beyond that.
I have the idea for the overall plot outlined, but the character-centered episodes such as "garbage in, garbage out" or even "human error" (not important to the plot but drives the story nonetheless) will be ones i need help on. Yeh, animation is my main concern at this point. I'm still pretty amateur at animation so if I don't get better or can't find anyone capable, then it'll just have to be in comic format.
I would love to contribute my voice to the cause, sign me up for VA. Other than that I could help write depends on if you think I got a good handle of the characters, check the aforementioned thread for details. I was also thinking, you could shop around Newgrounds for animators. I know there are som real great guys there that would prolly love to help out.
You should post your idea for the season and we can help you flesh it out. I would like doing some episode treatments just for fun I honestly think animated style could work with just flash animation or something
How do you rename a character who has already been given a name? Its being shown in the allspark almanac and was mentioned at TFcon and Botcon...I'd say that makes it pretty much official. But yes Blurr is dead....but the fanboys make me remeber something An Art Director enters Botcon Mr. Wyatt: 'Ello, I wish to register a complaint. (The Fanboy does not respond.) Mr. Wyatt: 'Ello, Miss? Fanboy: What do you mean "miss"? Mr. Wyatt: I'm sorry, I have a cold. I wish to make a complaint! Fanboys: I'm goin' for lunch. Mr. Wyatt: Never mind that, my lad. I wish to complain about this Autobot what I killed off not half an hour ago from this very fandom. Fanboy: Oh yes, the, uh, the Cybertronian Blue...What's,uh...What's wrong with it? Mr. Wyatt: I'll tell you what's wrong with it, my lad. 'E's dead, that's what's wrong with it! Fanboy: No, no, 'e's uh,...he's resting. Mr. Wyatt: Look, matey, I know a dead autobot when I see one, and I'm looking at one right now. Fanboy: No no he's not dead, he's, he's restin'! Remarkable bot, the Cybertorian Blue, isn'it, ay? Beautiful transformation! Mr. Wyatt: The transformation don't enter into it. It's stone dead. Fanboy: Nononono, no, no! 'E's resting! Mr. Wyatt: All right then, if he's restin', I'll wake him up! (shouting at the cube) 'Ello, Mister Zippy! I've got a lovely fresh energon cube for you if you show... (Fanboy pushes the cube) Fanboy: There, he moved! Mr. Wyatt: No, he didn't, that was you hitting the cube! Fanboy: I never!! Mr. Wyatt: Yes, you did! Fanboy: I never, never did anything... Mr. Wyatt: (yelling and hitting the cage repeatedly) 'ELLO BLURRY!!!!! Testing! Testing! Testing! Testing! This is your nine o'clock alarm call! (Picks up Cube and thumps it on the counter. Throws it up in the air and watches it plummet to the floor.) Mr. Wyatt: Now that's what I call a dead autobot. Fanboy: No, no.....No, 'e's stunned! Mr. Wyatt: STUNNED?!? Fanboy: Yeah! You stunned him, just as he was wakin' up! Cybertronian Blues stun easily, major. Mr. Wyatt: Um...now look...now look, mate, I've definitely 'ad enough of this. That bot is definitely deceased, and when I purchased it not 'alf an hour ago, you assured me that its total lack of movement was due to it bein' tired and shagged out following a prolonged run through space. Fanboy: Well, he's...he's, ah...probably pining for Iacon. Mr. Wyatt: PININ' for IACON?!?!?!? What kind of talk is that?, look, why did he fall flat on his back the moment I got 'im home? Fanboy: The Cybertronian Blue prefers keepin' on it's back! Remarkable bot, id'nit, squire? Lovely transformation! Mr. Wyatt: Look, I took the liberty of examining that bot when I got it home, and I discovered the only reason that it had been movin' about in the first place was that it had been NAILED to a skateboard. (pause) Fanboy: Well, o'course it was nailed there! If I hadn't nailed that bot down, it would got free, and VOOM! Feeweeweewee! Mr. Wyatt: "VOOM"?!? Mate, this bot wouldn't "voom" if you put four million volts through it! 'E's bleedin' demised! Fanboy: No no! 'E's pining! Mr. Wyatt: 'E's not pinin'! 'E's passed on! This autobot is no more! He has ceased to be! 'E's expired and gone to meet 'is maker! 'E's a stiff! Bereft of life, 'e rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed 'im to the board 'e'd be pushing up the daisies! 'Is cybernetic processes are now 'istory! 'E's off the twig! 'E's kicked the bucket, 'e's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' well of allsparks!! THIS IS AN EX-AUTOBOT!! (pause) Fanboy: Well, I'd better replace it, then. (he takes a quick peek behind the counter) Sorry squire, I've had a look 'round the back of the shop, and uh, we're right out of Blurrs. Mr. Wyatt: I see. I see, I get the picture. Fanboy: I got a Name for the Female Starscream. (pause) Mr. Wyatt: Pray, is it the name I gave her, Slipstream? Fanboy: Nnnnot really. Mr. Wyatt: WELL IT'S HARDLY BLOODY CANON, IS IT?!!???!!? Fanboy: N-no, I guess not. (gets ashamed, looks at his feet) Mr. Wyatt: Well. (pause) Fanboy: (quietly) D'you.... d'you want to come back to my place? I've got Battle Beasts. Mr. Wyatt: (looks around) Yeah, all right, sure.
