Title: Run! Jump! Pontificate! Run again! Remember when we had good animation, Big Bot?
Review: Episode 1: Vehicons shooting at us! Run! Episode 2: Vehicons shooting at us! Run! Episode 3: Vehicons shooting at us! Run! Oh yeah, you get the picture. The evil Megatron seeks to destroy the Maximals because... um, I think because their animation and robot-forms suddenly look like crap. He's also really angry and wants to take over all of Cybertron because any sense of continuity the planet or series once had got really messed up by bad writers that couldn't live up to Larry DiTillio and Bob Forward. That's right, jettison the guys who helped make Babylon 5 memorable, get some cheap hacks, and stretch a 3-episode story stretch over two seasons. THERE's a recipe for success. I have no illusion the old G1 stuff was Shakespeare, and Beast Wars was no Tolkien epic, but this was a sad swan song.
Is the review positive or negative?
