Transformers Animated

Okay since I haven´t got any thing to record other than a grainy webcam nor even a remotely idea as to how to make outtakes of different movies or shows like some of you do and that my voice isn´t something to say hurray for, I will just have to use the old fashion text when reviewing the newest television Transformer show.

Transformers Animated are made by the same guys who made teen titans so it can be all bad right, well not as such for the sake of my limited vocabulary I will only say what I think of the show.

First of the animation is a lets down some of them looks okay enough, but the humans are most of all just ugly.
The characterization: surprisingly its actually pretty good, the characters have a lot of depth and their lines aren´t all that cheesy though team work gets mentioned a little TOO many times in the pilot.
The voice acting: Corey Burton makes it perfectly as Megatron and Ratchet (though ratchet is a little to grumpy from time to time for my taste) David Kaye makes a good optimus not as good as Gary Clark or Peter Cullen but okay he later voices Grimlock and does a decent job whit that too.
Tom Kenny´s Latta sound alike voicing for Starscream actually works quite okay, he makes Starscream just as tretsures and devious as always.
Bumper Robinson can´t recall who he is haven´t heard him before, but I don´t like his version of bumblebee it’s annoying to hear at.
Jeff Bennett his version of Prowl is quite good he is gloomy yes but is fascinated by earth, so his voice isn´t bad.
Tara Strong If you seen Ben 10 or almost any other modern day cartoon it is quite likely that you have heard her, she delivers the part of Sari the autobots human companion, and she does a great job at it.
That her character is a bit annoying in the end is the writers fault not hers.

All in all a good show could have been A LOT WORSE.

Had a look at it myself briefly over at Jason's house yesterday. I couldn't bare to look at it for too long.

To qoute from diskworld(though a little edited) once you get over the bad animation style, the show isn´t half bad.

The show is ok. The animation style is mediocre. I really think they made the show to capitalize on the attention generated by the Transformers live action film done by Dreamworks. I absolutely hate the all-spark storyline but they are trying to make it more appealing to youngsters and aren't concerned with the previous generations who watched the 80's or other franchise shows. Not exactly my cup of tea, I'd give it a 6/10.
