"the autobots got corrupted and now rule Cybertron as tyrants.... They recruit Megatron’s and bots across the multiverse to fight this evil Optimus to take back their world."

I had the same idea once with having all the Stunticons embody different types of racing (Street racing for Breakdown, NCTS for Dead End, Baja for Wildrider), complete with Motormaster as a massive race transporter that could carry all four of them in alt-mode

Taking a break from the negativity to talk about something I DID like, the designs! I think both the upside-down cities of Cybertron and (as unnecessary as they were to the overall movie...) the biopunk-esque designs of the Quintessons are both wonderfully inspired-

Looking at tfwiki now and apparently Sentinel's guards are supposed to be non-sentient drones The film doesn't make any real attempt to signify this to the audience but sure lets roll with it, now TF One Optimus is slightly less of a hypocritical dumbass, who hoo

Thoughts of mine I wrote down while watching Can you tell I didn't enjoy this films final act
Current thoughts:
-god damn these designs are fugly
-not even 1 minute since his introduction and I already wish it was Bumblebee who Megatron ripped in half instead
-Even ignoring my complete distain for both sympathetic miner Megatron and the 13th Primes as concepts this film is just... sloppy
-When I got to the scene where they used plot-device Airachnid to broadcast Sentinel saying the most obviously evil shit ever I audibly fucking groaned
-When Optimus shoved Megatron out of the way of Sentinel I audibly fucking groaned a second time"We're better than this, don't be like Sentinel" OPTIMUS YOU FUCKING RIPPED A GUY IN HALF EARLIER, BUMBLEBEE IS RUNNING AROUND KNIFING PEOPLE TO DEATH WHILE LAUGHING, HOW IS WANTING TO KILL THE FASCIST DICTATOR WHO MUTALATED AND ENSLAVED YOU AT BIRTH WORSE THAN THAT
-Megatron has a point why tf did you take a bullet for mecha hitler Orion you dumbass
-"Noble sacrifice for the greater good" I'M FUCKING SORRY?????
-THIS GUY TOOK A BULLET FOR THE GUY WHO BETRAYED YOU AND SOLD OUT THE PLANET WHY TF ARE YOU REWARDING HIM
-"You betrayed everyone just like Sentinel" oh brother shut this guy upppppp
-So Megatron was the only one of the hundreds of thousands of miners to feel the level of resentment towards Sentinel? Nobody else felt the same way and joined him? Sure man whatever-Gotta love how in a movie where every character looks exactly the fucking same we still gotta make sure all the women are skinnier and petite than the men to really beat into the audiences skull that these are The Female Ones
god this franchise is never escaping the misogyny mines is it

Really do wonder what L. B. Billinton's reaction would be to finding out that one okay-ish shunter he designed back in 1913 would later become the basis for one of the most famous steam engines in the world (At least the most famous in fiction) #ttte

There's also Megazarak who I somehow completely forgot about while making my original post And if you *really* want to count it Titans Return Blitzwing was technically a retool of the Megatron from the same toyline

There was a few from some of Megatron's Generation 2 toys (half of which are basically identical to the original release...) but that's about it off the top of my head

If we are going to be stuck in the Sunbow nostalgia slop mines for the rest of time they could at least give us toys of characters from that cartoon who haven't been completely done to death like Elita's squad I know damn well they wont but it'd be nice

Y'know if Lego really wanted to do another set of blind boxed buildable cars why not just, make one for the Pixar movies? it's a theme they just got the license back and because the characters aren't copy and paste recolors of each other it'd be way more appealing

There's probably something to be said about how, with every new reboot/revitalization of the franchise the previous main girl character(s) gets pushed to the back (if not outright dropped entirely), I'm just not smart enough to put my thoughts about it together coherently #ttte
