The Warden Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 If you payed attention, you'd see that many of the Predacons were based on mythological beings. Which in Transformers cnon means that the myths surrounding them were derived from many of the Predacon remains. One we saw in Shockwave's lab was a gryphon.

Whenever I first watch through an episode I never pay attention to background elements. I just focus on what is being said and how it is supposed to or how it might connect with the future plot. I haven't bothered looking back on any of the new episodes to look at the background things and see if I missed anything with my first watch through.

Jake the Sage Posted July 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hey you watch Transformers your way let me watch it my way. Though I have to also admit that I kind of chuckled when Raph started to act like Rachet when he was working on turning Laserbeak's transponder so it could be remote controlled. I actually like how much the humans are contributing to this series unlike the others where they were there mainly to remind you you were . . . y'know . . . on Earth still.

The Warden Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 But, it was deliberately said that human myths were based on the Predacon remains. It was LITERALLY STATED. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted July 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Well yeah, but now the question is how soon are they going to get to Nemesis and save Rachet? And is Rachet going to actually complete the synthetic energon formula, get saved so it can be used for the Autobots, or make a faulty version so it (perhaps literally) blows up in Megatron's face?

Mugendramon Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 How soon? One episode. He's probably going to complete the formula right as he gets rescued, too; so they can make the show longer and milk the cow some more. There are some toys we haven't seen, after all.

Jake the Sage Posted July 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 So, there is a role play I'm in and we kind of need new people to join in . . . so if anyone is interested I suggest you check out the link, please -> Tournament of Legends Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kazooie Posted July 18, 2013 Report Share Posted July 18, 2013 So, there is a role play I'm in- No dice. Well, that and the fact that the RP has legendaries just being handed out, which seems bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jake the Sage Posted July 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Has anyone seen the previews for Legend of Korra, Book Two: Spirits? If you haven't then you need to go look at it. Not only do we get to see the very first Avatar ever, but we also get some cool cameos from old spirits like the Knowledge Spirit and a few others that we've never seen before. The music sounds amazing and the animation is just what you expect from Avatar. And even better is that it is out in two months, coming in September.

Christian Exodia Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Meh. The main reasons i'm in it are the decent line of people and the fact that it's probably not going to be those overpowered roleplays where somebody tried to godmod through it.

Fusion X. Denver Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Korra looked pretty good from its trailer, as did Walking Dead. I can't wait for the Fall for these. The Batman/Superman movie and Avengers 2 being about Ultron are absolutely amazing, though. I figured we'd have to wait until 3 for Ultron, but I am totally okay with this. And the fact it's about Ultron means we'll be getting Ant/Giant Man in the next movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(T_-) I thought they were going to do an Ant-Man movie on his own where Ultron was the main villain. Wasn't the main villain in Avengers 2 supposed to be f*cking Thanos? Why the Hell did they change that? Another thing I'm kinda pissed off about it that LEGENDARY REFUSES TO GIVE ME MY GODZILLA TRAILER!!! I seriously have been waiting for years so that I can get me a good American Godzilla movie, but Legendary won't give me anything to work on. There was rumors the preview was going to be at the end of Pacific Rim. It wasn't. Then you got San Diego Con and they showed a trailer, but won't let ANYONE RECORD IT!!! Give me something Legendary!

Thanos will appear in Guardians of the Galaxy and most likely make his presence in the Marvel Cinematic Universe more widely known before being the villain in 3. And the first time you see a Godzilla trailer should be in HQ, shouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they made everyone believe that Thanos was going to be the villain for Avengers 2, but I'm not opposed to having Ultron be the villain. In fact Ultron might be better since he is something that Antman creates that goes haywire. Not to mention Ultron takes over machines which, for our day and age, would be incredibly fun to see how they might use it.

I recently read the Marvel event "Age of Ultron", and while it was a little lackluster with its pacing, I think it'd be amazing to see as a movie. And it'd be a good way to create hype for the Ant-Man movie as well. Plus if you think about it, Thanos is probably as big a threat as you can get for the Avengers to face. Ultron's a global threat, but Thanos is a universal threat. So it makes sense for them to do it in that order. And HQ=High Quality. There were a few camrips here and there of DBZ Battle of the Gods a while back, but I persisted in staying away so I could fully enjoy it in decent quality whenever it gets subbed.

I just want something . . . anything just to see and be sated. Not to mention with Legendary being hush-hush about the Godzilla movie, not many people actually KNOW it's coming out. That was actually something Godzilla 1998 got right. It had MASSIVE publicity that was constantly in your face but never showed what the American Godzilla was going to look like; save for the one f*ck up where the toy line came out before the movie, other than that no one knew what Zilla looked like. Legendary hasn't let the general audience know that there is a new Godzilla movie coming out. One of the major complaints about Pacific Rim was that Legendary didn't advertise it enough and raise the hype. Yes, die hard Godzilla fans like myself immediately caught wind of Legendary making a new Godzilla movie, but the average run-of-the-mill guy doesn't know about it. Give us SOMETHING so fans can spread the word so the theaters will be f*cking packed when this sh*t comes out! Also, on a side note, after reading that one of the monsters Godzilla is supposed to fight is an insect . . . I have mixed feelings. I mean Godzilla's already fougth giant mutated insects/animals before: Kamakuras / The Giant Mantis Kumonga / The Giant Spider Eborah / The Sea Monster / The Giant Lobster Megalon / The Giant Cockroach Biollante I / The Giant Rose Mothra / The Giant Butterfly I mean come on . . . can't you think of something a bit more original? I'll admit Mothra and Megalon don't bother me because Mothra got her own spin-off, meaning she was popular, and Megalon doesn't look anything like a cockroach . . . and Biollante makes up for being a mutated rose in her first form by becoming one of the most epic Godzilla monsters ever in her second form. But we've still seen this before! Unless . . . Legendary . . . those sly b*stards . . . showed Kamakuras and it isn't actually one of the new monsters Godzilla is supposed to beat the sh*t out of. To be honest I think it might be one of Kaiju Samurai's monsters, since he actually works as an artist for the Godzilla comics and REVAMPED THE ENTIRE GODZILLA CONTINUITY ON HIS OWN!!!

Jake the Sage Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Okay so I set fire to my burn pile outside and I discovered that there was a water moccasin that had been hiding out in the pile. Normally I wouldn't bother trying to kill the snake but since it is poisonous and we have dogs I had no choice . . . Unfortunately I couldn't give it a quick death and instead let the fire do my dirty work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spirit of DMG Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Good. You are learning, young Sage. Well, under any other circumstances, I probably would have relocated the snake to a nearby deserted plot of land and let it go about its day, but watching it burn alive is almost as good.

Mugendramon Posted July 27, 2013 Report Share Posted July 27, 2013 Hehe, setting fire to a snake. I normally wouldn't say animal cruelty doesn't bother me but... snakes are abominations and they should die in fires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
