Christ. 😒

NETFLIX gives us a CG-animated Transformers series set on Cybertron in the distant past, with all the characters looking exactly G1, and it's appropriately dark and serious... but so frustratingly hamstrung by its limited budget that every voice actor is a non-union hack and every character model gets reused ad nauseum.

Paramount gives us a CG-animated Transformers film set on Cybertron in the distant past, with all the characters looking generic and childish, and it's wall-to-wall jokes... but so well-funded that every voice actor is an established movie star, and so heavily-marketed that a whole generation of kids will associate juvenile humour with the brand.

After 40 years of this franchise, it's sad to realize that James Roberts' run on IDW comics (and Transformers: Prime on television) was the pinnacle of the brand... and it's all been downhill for the last decade and change. 😐
