Great Idea for new Transformers Armada Theam song

[MikesPizzaShack]

well armada doesnt have much of a theam song. i own the Transformers movie soundtrack and after listening to it the movie theam song which isnt much diff the the original theam would be perfect. not only does it rock but it mention Unicron and Galvetron both of which are in this season, the onlything it doesnt say is about mini cons but hey cant have everything but i think it could work...oh and by the way i think this is a good series to. the only thing its mising is good old Bumble Bee. i think they finnaly got back to the Transformers roots w/ this series.

[MikesPizzaShack]

so no1 has a say on this?

[Bowser_Koopa]

maybe ninjatron will, he likes trnsformers

[PizzaPower]

never say the show or the theme song.

Transformers: Armada..back to Generation One's roots?

Beast Wars did that, don't insult Generation One by saying Armada is anywhere NEAR it's level.

Armada sucked, only the second season redeems it (not to metion Alex's romance with Starscream) but the kids, the crappy Pokemon-style story (Mini-Cons: GOTTA CATCH 'EM ALL) crap like Hotshot, and the usless way Megatron was transformed into Galvatron was stupid.

Overrated garbage

Dude, please, stop. Just stop. He didn't give you any reason to post another of your little rants. Seems like every time I turn around you're talking about how much something sucks. Stop. You're sucking the fun out of every thread you do that in. Start your own thread with your hatred if you must share your opinions with us.

I just saw the last episode tonight and it kicked ass.

I suppose that the movie theme song could work with Armada, but I think that the movie music is so associated with the movie that there's no reason to do it. I like the Japanese theme songs a lot.

Sayonara.

[GK Punk]

Never heard the japanese theme, but When they Start airing Energon they should use the Movie theme. I always loved that version.

It was a Friday night! I was out having fun... on other forums. Yeah...

*lol* Well yeah, I also think the movie sdtrk kicks much skidplate compared to even first and second season G1 cartoons. *bows down to Vince Dicola* But they always do that for movies, since it's a longer production that's supposed to have a greater impact that the carton series.

Although, I thought the Armada theme is pretty good too. It has a nice backbeat that fits this time era. As scary as it sounds, if I had to pick between the Armada theme and the new TMNT theme... I'd go for Armada. It's still very catchy, like G1 S2 and even the old TMNT cartoon theme.

TF:TM focused more on the 80's metal bands, which made sense in a way to use those because of the metal machine sort of analogy. To me... Armada is based more off Japanese concepts, and the hip-hop style of music fits that better. Somehow, 80's metal sounds like a funky mismatch when placed with today's Japanese anime cartoon. But that's me....

[Ninjatron]

You know what's really funny is that Armada reminds me a lot of the classic 70's super robot shows like Mazinger and Getter Robo. The more recent incarnations of both of those series featured 80's style metal music that rocks just as hard as the Transformers Movie soundtrack, and maybe harder. Remind me a lot of the movie theme by Lion.

Giant Robots = Wailing guitars?

Err..how about NO Scott?

It's an opinion, sorry if you have a problem with that

I also gave Armada it's good points in that post as well, saying that Season Two redeems it in a lot of ways, not completly, but it does enough to warrant a little respect

That song ruled

[Voltron]

I wrote my own theme song:

*ahem*

Transformers Armada
This show really sucks
To get this kind of plot
you'd pay a 4 year old 2 bucks

Why Bother
watching this lousy toon?
If you continue
it may kill you soon

Commercialization
Why not make the Autobots insignia a giant McDonald's Golden Arches while the Decipticons have a Burger King logo
The only plus side
the robots don't look like lego

[Ninjatron]

Err..how about NO Scott?

My name isn't Scott. It's Ninjatron.

I've got no problems with your opinion. You're entitled to it. I've got big problems with the way you tend to present said opinions. I am asking you nicely to try and show some manners.

Now can we please stay on topic in regards to the theme song rather than if this or that sucks? Thank you.

Sayonara.

Well before you get back to that topic, I gotta question. Is Starscream a good guy in Armada? Because last I saw, he was actin' pretty chummy with those kids.

Yup, Starscream ended up redeeming himself, with a little help from Aleixs (in a new multi-episode twist on the Generation One classic, "The Girl who Loved Powerglide") in the eyes of the Autobots, true he would switch sides every so often at the start due to the Autobots distrusting him.

By the time they arrive on Cybertron though, after Starscream's upgrade to Thundercracker form, Alexis and Starscream were pretty much doing everything BUT doing it

[Dane E5R]

...And..That's a good thing..?

[Ninjatron]

Starscream was betrayed by Megatron (used as bait) and so Starscream joined the Autobots in order to get back at him. He wasn't exactly a team player, though, as you might imaginge. He ended up going back to the Decepticons when Thrust convinced him that would be the best way to get back at Megatron, but that was mostly just to further Thrust's own agenda. When Unicron entered the picture, however, Starscream wanted the Autobots and Decepticons to team up. There's a bit more to the story but that's about the jist of it without spoiling anything major.

Mmm.. yes, you do have a point. It's the heavy metal rock n roll association. I love it too.

But I fear... that they might mess it up and have some kind of frunky sounding theme song if they were to do so. *eyeshift* One can never be to sure anymore.

Or wait.... what about the Energon series? Who's producing that for America?

Uh... huh? Dude... have you been reading too many of those frighteningly bad fangrrly fanfics again?

Man.. all he did in the cartoon was save Alexis from her own stupidity. It's a tough fact to deal with, it really is. I liked ARM Starscream cause he was just... flat out strange. Hard to predict, and now very dead. But why... oh WHY did he have a soft spot for those annoying kids!


Well, anywayz... I don't know if you and Ninjatron know each other from another board, ZariusTwo. But as a mod, I will second Ninjatron's request for you to refrain from excessive bashing. He asked once already, play nice now. Please.
