While we're on the subject of Transformers, I came across a YouTube vid pretty much saying 'Toxic Positivity is ruining the franchise!' As oppose to being constantly and toxically negative about something???

Y'all should know me by now that I ain't one of those kinda terminally online douchebags that are hyper critical about ANYTHING and EVERYTHING under the frickin' sun, and think they're the supreme arbiters on what they think is good and bad for everybody, and think they speak for everybody. I'd rather be toxically positive than negative, but that doesn't mean I'll like everything about certain things in a franchise. And that crap has been plaguing the internet for well over a decade with the MCU and Star Wars.

I've explained why I don't like the prequel trilogy and love the sequel trilogy based on the character likeability. Yes, there's issues with the movies, but I feel that way with the original trilogy too, especially with 'Empire Strikes Back'. But the good I feel from those movies; from 'New Hope' to 'Rise of Skywalker' squashes the negative points I'll have. And that's how I feel for lots of movies I like. There's some Disney+ Star Wars shows that ain't my cup of tea like 'Acolyte'. I know I've explained more than a couple times that the only MCU film I've genuinely hated has been 'Iron Man 3'. Yeah, certain movies that people just love to bash on, I genuinely love for different reasons. The shows too; 'Inhumans' was crap, and 'Secret Invasion'.... well let's just pretend that show never happened. I'm waiting for more episodes of 'Agatha All Along' to come out so I can full stream it from beginning to end so I can make my own judgement on it. But I ain't gonna bash people for liking or disliking something. I'll just say

And that's the same thing with Transformers. And these are the same guys that will continually phrase G1because of nostalgia. Like with the '86 movie, but those nostaglia goggles are stapled so well on peoples' heads their phrasing do becomes cringe at times. Fans worship Transformers: Prime. While I do like the show, it can be overrated as hell sometimes. I was indifferent when I first saw 'Transformers: Rise of the Beasts' last year because of how the Maximals were treated. As I saw more of it, I thought at first I misjudged it the first time. But as I thought more of it... yeah the movie's bad. Mirage was cool, but even he couldn't make this movie better. This movie's up there with 'The Last Knight' for me. And as for 'EarthSpark', sheesh people are just bashing on it. Me? I've been digging it. Cuz it's FINALLY different from all the other shows. They're crapping on Megatron being a good guy and being redeemed after all he's done; genocide and whatnot. First off all, it's a different continuity (maybe G1, but that's bit of a stretch. Also kid's show) Yet people loved that in the comics.

How do I feel about 'Transformers: One'? I dug it. But apparently with the box office drops, it might not get a sequel. Only time will tell. Would I wanna see a Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover. To be honest, no. Not because I don't like G.I. Joe, I just ain't a fan. Call me a slightly less than casual. Seen the movies, and 'Retaliation' is my favorite one. The only Joe I'll always like is/has been Snake Eyes. I mean, c'mon people. When have ninjas never been NOT sexy? I wouldn't have given a crap about G.I. Joe if it weren't for Snake Eyes.

If anything, just make the Transformers/G.I. Joe crossover a show. Who knows, they might make TF: One a show.

Point is, I like think I don't take things too seriously with what I like and don't like with franchise. If I like it, I like it. If I don't, I move on. I think that's my life's slogan, because I DO NOT wanna make that my defining personality like sooooooooooooo many of these wastes of oxygen have done.

Thanks for coming to my TedTalk. Have a good day/night.

Thanks for your time. ^^
