Manipulations: the Transformers Earthspark Tale
9 months ago
Nice title. XD
OK, I'll be the first to admit that Transformers: Earthspark ain't the best. It dropped the ball a but during its 2nd and 3rd seasons, but that being said, it's not as bad as so many Gee-whiners make it out to be. And it definitely doesn't deserve the crazy hate it's getting. People say it's 'manipulating kids'. Why? Cuz of this crazy stigma of the culture war of 'pronouns'? Talk about exaggerations. This is just like the dumbass argument, that if you like the Decepticons, you're a terrorist. Yeah, the show has its moments, and finally gives Optimus some much-needed levity. They say the show 'ruins the legacy'. *sighs* It's crap like this when confidentially yelled out by the craziest of nerds, makes me not wanna take 'em seriously. So yeah, the show works as a pseudo sequel series to the original G1 cartoon. For those who haven't seen the show, Megatron becomes a good guy. Yeah, I would've liked to have seen where he got his change of heart, but I like his interactions with Optimus. And what with 'Transformers: One', it's fun.
'Destroys its legacy', said by the same crazies who kept yelling out, 'make it different', and when they do, 'it's too different'. They've done with Marvel movies, Star Wars, the list goes on. Please, tell me what 'legacy'? Since it seems to vary in the different shows. Nah, I find this show wholesome. Not the best, but definitely NOT the worst. Aaaaaaaand, we finally get a Prowl who DOESN'T DIE! And who's become my second favorite Prowl next to Animated's version ^^
But that's just my two cents on this whole thing. With this new 'Cyberworld' thing coming up, maybe those opinions will change. I'm just a schmuck who doesn't like jumping on the bandwagon.
Thanks for your time. ^^

I also like the exploration of Quintess Prime and his legacy being more than just the creator of the Quintessons.
However I did start to roll my eyes when the kids started getting super powers that basically made them the heroes instead of the Autobots or even the new Terrans.
Then again, it's better than Kicker's ditty
So all of the people who asked for change only to complain when the change was too much. Honestly have they all forgotten what made it special to them?
To me what makes Transformers special is that it was a show that me and my uncle watched together
