I actually still kind of like that one.

what about the guy who was a boom box? loved that one. or was that a go-bot?

Blaster I think was his name.

I'm confused. Were the Transformers those little tigers that you put together to a form a huge robot?

Nope. That's Voltron

That would be Voltron I think.

*edit*

Big dick wins

1. i believe that was voltron

2. are you seriously saying that you are unfamiliar with what transformers are? what did you play with when you were a kid?

dont answer that 2nd one

I played with Barbie dolls. And I played Play Doh Barbershop.

i think i had that playdoh barbershop thing too. man voltron was pretty badass from what i could remember.

That's usually how I feel, but the fact that Spielberg is executive producer might mean its not a pos. Bay is a bit of a hack director, but with a little guidance, I feel like he can do some good things.

And we know how any trailer can make a movie look good, but I think this could actually be really good.

g.i. joes were my favorite along with...

I also had a huge collection of Playmobil. I don't know how popular they were in the U.S., but in Europe, they were huge.

my grandma had a bunch of those playmobil things. i always hated them and wished she had legos instead

I bought a Transformer (blitzkreig) online one day 4 years ago in a fit of nostalgia. I can't wait to see this shit. IF THEY HAVE OLD SCHOOL CHARACTERS. If it's 40 newbies and 2 old schoolers screw that.

When I was a kid I was crazy for these pre-Transformer Japanese robots called Shogun Warriors.






Apparently they're worth a lot of money now.

I think someone has a clever way of blocking image bandwidth...

Yep. and the sad thing is that i've been on the internet too long, as i just scrolled past and said, "oh man, someone's posting tubgirl. how - yawn - clever".

holy crap, I haven't thought about that movie in ages...I must have rented it 15-20 times growing up.

as for transformers...meh.

But Transformer did have Voltron-like characters such as Omega Supreme, the Dinobots and the Constructicons.

I'll just go and kill myself now.

i am going to guess that spielberg had zero creative input or influence. dreamworks is a producer and distributor of the film is all. i notice they already have a sequel on the breadown.

also, i will mention that while it looks like i am in this thread just to poo-poo the movie, i obviously hold out some remote hope that it could be good. it's just highly unlikely.

If Spielberg puts his name on something, he's usually involved at some creative level. He was very hands-on as an exec producer for Tiny Toons, Animaniacs, Pinky & the Brain, and Freakazoid.

What about Monster House?

That I can't say. Perhaps there's a TV film/distinction here, but I still don't see a strong basis yet to assume he's there in name only. While he technically may be an exec producer for Shrek because of Dreamworks, he's not credited.

Any chance of a Mask movie?

now, that was a great action cartoon!
