Jetfire.  He was a plane.  But he was an Autobot.  <img width="180" height="240" border="0" src="http://static.flickr.com/22/26893122_dcd27bd72e_m.jpg" alt="Jetfire" title="Jetfire" /> Of course, it is because Starscream screwed him.

it was spike who said holy shit in the movie. it was awesome when they killed starscream though, if he had to go that would be a great way. bumble bee was even GAYER in the other transformers series (maybe very close to the end of the original series) when he became "super bee"  anyone see the other G1 series, headmasters, masterforce, and victory. only way theyre available in english is with britsh dubs, alot of the names are different but still good. the best is how gay they all sound, and that blasters name is billy, and when he dies they go oh no they killed billy. might be a had to be there.  also anyone check out some of the transformers fan remixes... alot of them suck but there's a few that are good like autobionics, and planet cybertron rock.

I was watching the movie the other day.  It was pretty gay.  There were so many 80's songs in it.  Pretty funny.  Orsen wells was the voice of unicron, or whatever that planet thing was called.  And the guy from the breakfast club was in it too.

I of course loved Optimus Prime over all other Transformers, mainly because of his kickass voice on the cartoon.  I think the idea of the live action Transformers movie being made is beyond stupid and unecessary, but they need to get <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0191520/" target="_blank">Peter Cullen</a> back to do the voice.  I still hear him doing voiceovers for commercials and movie trailers he still owns.But beyond Prime, I really liked Shockwave.  Dude had the weird face that was just one glowing eye, and he turned into a huge purple gun.  He was like the Prince of Transformers.Overall, I really couldn't stand the toys.  Loved the TV show and comics, probably a little too much, but the toys were always such letdowns.  The vehicles looked great, but the robot forms usually looked nothing like how they did in the cartoons and comic, which in my mind was how they were supposed to look.

did you tell her "If you really love me you would buy it for me" line? that might have changed her mind.

My friends were evenly split between the Dinobots and Insecticons as far as teams went.  And for some reason, Jazz was more beloved than Optimus Himself. Me, I liked Hot Rod.  But anytime I think about kid toys I can't help but think of this kid Jimmy Kennedy. His family would come down from North Jersey every Summer. He was what Ronnie would call a "Waterhead". And to make up for that, I guess, his parents got him Every. Toy. Imaginable.  He had all the coolest toys before anyone else. He had toys that I didn't even know existed. Death Star Playsets, Cybertron, strange G.I Joe stuff etc.  So this made him very popular with all the neighborhood kids. The only problem was, quite literally, his Superhuman strength and inability to control it. For some reason any playtime would result in wrestling, followed by four kids trying to pull him off of some unlucky bastard. As mean as kids can be, we were never really mean to lil Jimmy Kennedy. I owe it all to his endless supply of super cool toys. His parents were goddamn GENIUSES!

I'm still waiting for both Voltron DVDs to come out.  I liked them both, but the vehicle version was hard to find after time.  Also, Lance kicked ass compared to the fucking princess angle they went with later.   Here's a great site:  <a href="http://voltron.purrsiathunder.net/index.php">http://voltron.purrsiathunder.net/index.php</a> Perhaps we should start a separate thread for this.
