Do you like where the Transformers franchise is heading?

Hey guys, so I just watched the reboot of the new Thundercats series and man am I impressed at what I saw - thought the show was fantastic! So much so that I watched it twice and can't wait for the new episodes to be released. I am very excited about this show.

I can't say the same with Transformers franchise - I have been disappointed with EVERY series after G1 except maybe Beast Wars and Beast Machines. Even the movies weren't good (looks-wise). When I thought about it, it occurred to me that I only went to see the movies because they bore the name "Transformers" and I can't say that I feel excited about Transformers if it weren't for the G1 reissues and the classicsverse releases of the toys.

With regards to TF:Prime again I find myself 'only' watching it because it's Transformers but if I'm honest, the show is bad.

I suspect that I am part of the minority and that there are probably others that like all the other series and movies. I also know that a brand new fanbase has been created with the release of the movies who would disagree with me about the old G1 series being better.

I just can't help but feel disappointed and only wish there was a reboot of a cartoon series that stays close to the G1 cartoon. I find myself trying to get a G1 kick from comics but its not the same as a TV series. I wish Transformers can excite me as much as this new Thundercats series.

What do you think?
