[Sam]

I saw this trailer the other day, and am looking forward to the show.

Yup, looks like fun

Will be interesting to see how MOTU works with an actual continuing storyline to it.

I'm going full negative Nigel on this one, But I hope I will be presently surprised.

I'm looking forward to this take of MOTU. I like the way this one is animated, compared to what we're getting with the current Netflix TF trilogy, which will not age well. Also, hoping for better voice acting. The TF one's awful.

Watched it. Loved it.

I kinda liked it as a kid, but re-watching it is not the same for me as re-watching Transformers. Both were low-quality pap aimed at kids to sell toys, but for me Transformers has a certain spark, and MOTU doesn't. The toys manage to fascinate me (come on Big W or Target, sell them to me), but I can't see the cartoon the same way I did in the 80s.

MOTU Revelation, though, does a lot of work to have that spark. And it pays off.

I won't spoil anything here, but I will say this - if all you do is listen to the spittle-flecked rantings of the man-child "fans" who can't get over women taking centre stage for a change (and this does seem to be the big objection that I've seen; tells you quite a lot about these supposed "fans"), then you'll miss out on something pretty good.

Very much looking forward to the second half.

Finished it this morning, it's okay but not really for me although I liked the choice for the major story arc to reference a Teela centric episode from the original series
