Paramount has two Transformers in the works. One is based on Beast Wars. And the other is a Spinoff of Bumblebee.

Beast Wars was my Transformers show. I knew of Transformers and saw a few episodes back in the day but I didn't care for it. The only other thing I liked was the 2007 Transformers movie. I actually like that one. Beast Wars is my Transformers show but I really hope they don't mess it up. I'm very cautiously interested right now.

Oh my gosh Beast Wars was also what got me into transformers. I still have all my toys except one that got damaged and one was I lost. Have not gotten the Masterpiece line but I really want to. Hope they do trans metals.

Please be live action!

Beast Wars was the one of the two Transformers series I've watched (the other one was Robots in Disguise) and I really loved it.

Giving that BW was a rather dark and mature show with intelligent and interesting writing, I am pretty sure, that new Beast Wars will be nothing like that and therefore just another failure.

And what does spin-off of Bumblebee means? Isn't Bumblebee itself is a spin-off? Is it a spin-off of a spin-off?

The first 5 minutes of Bumblebee was great. They should have continued with that.

They have it entirely backwards - they spend 5 minutes with robots, and 90 minutes with humans. Flip that equation and you have the formula that made G1 so incredible.

They need to stop thinking we give a damn about the humans.

That's interesting, considering that Transformers movies/cartoons have pretty much only stuck to the American G1 characters since 2007, arguably even before that.

What exactly gives you even the tiniest bit of hope that they won't?

You've probably much summed up for the most part what I dislike about the live Transformers movies.

Nothing really but if Bumblebee is any indication of the Transformers franchise its slowly getting better.

It's Spielberges fault. He thinks the best point of view characters are children, who must overcome a relatable and universal obstacle, and the titular characters must be supporting and backdrop.

Every scriptwriting class demands the same thing, so execs copy pasta the same damned narrative over and over again.

They really don't get it.

My thoughts exactly. Bumblebee was close to correct as the movies have come.

Glad you read this before a Mod decided it wasn't in line with the forums agenda.
