Hey, I liked beastwars, but then again I was born in the nineties. Chronologically though I think beastwars is supposed to be after every other Transformers series, except beast machines but that show just sucked.
I just want to agree with Brian you should kill Brandon just saying
“If Jesus had never died? What would that have done to the religion?”
Hey, he wasn’t supposed to, not according to the “prophecies”. So when he did, that pissed off his fanboys and then they had to write him back in on the story good time after the original story was written. . . Sound familiar?
@AntiLuke make me feel old
I used to watch all three shows (trans. gi joe and tmnt) not sure where im going with this….
even with owning the dvd of the movie when Cap said “Dare” my first thought was Weird Al’s “Dare to Be Stupid”
@AntiLuke
Actually I think most of us are in agreement- Beast Wars was pretty damn cool.
I’m guessing Brian didn’t find his Transformer/Commie paper. This makes me sad, though I got rid of most of my non-major work almost immediately after graduation, so I can understand.
@twomper Yeah, no dice. But if he ever does, he knows we’re interested! I’m sure it’s in his computer somewhere…
Phew! Yeah this was a step back in time. And it wasn’t until listening to those two songs at the end of the episode that ensured the craving set in. Now I absolutely must dig up my vhs copy for some good old transformers nostalgia.
