I've been watching Transformers Animated. Currently in season 3 episode 5. Taking time to gather my thoughts a little, I think I've enjoyed it thus far. It is its own bubble of continuity so there's that. I like TFA Megatron, has a pretty solid presence until toward the end of Season 2. Even as a head back in season 1, the VA really sells his menacing character. His charisma and cunning really shine with manipulating Isaac Sumdac. Occasional annoyance can be funny too. Starscream's a little... I'd say his backstabbing characteristic got pushed so comically far along with his incompetence (season 2 episode 3, what he does with the fact that Megatron keeps kicking his ass while he's kept somewhat immortal by the shard is pretty stupidly hilarious, as is being thrown into the river a total of 4 times). He's also very... loud. Before my decision to start watching it again, I just about remember only that bit of him, being very loud. Beyond that, the small time villains are kinda okay but not terribly memorable. They're fine for side plots or set up (like the monster in S1E14). Poor Blurr though, holy shit.
>>487016 >Transformers Animated Sorry to say I never made it far past the pilot. I don't remember anything being wrong with the show itself though: the story and approach to TF just didn't grab me personally. But it's spoken of very highly in the fandom, and your post has given me the kick up the ass I need to give TFA another shake some day.
>He's also very... loud. Yeah. I remember liking the voice Tom Kenny adopted for the part, which made him sound like a more savage Chris Latta-type Starscream, but also wishing he'd varied the tone a bit.
>>487022 All good mayne. First impressions are important after all and if it didn't grab your attention the first time around, then it just don't. I'm just re-visiting it since I have seen it years ago but with life throwing shit at ya left and right, it's easy to lose track of some things. Primary and secondary school years didn't really leave me much time to catch everything from episode 1. Season 3 definitely felt rushed, as if they were told to wrap things up quickly with no next season in sight. It left me wanting just a little more because there were a few loose ends. >Starscream voice At the very least, being loud stuck to my processor, haha! He's more of a weasel in Transformers Prime, if memory serves.
I'm going to (try to) post a classic theatrical cartoon each day. Feel free to watch along, or just check in from time to time to catch up on several at once.
In honor of January 1st, I'll first focus on newcomers to the Public Domain.
Today's picture is the first cartoon to come out of the Terrytoons studio, Caviar (1930). If you enjoy rats acting Russian and getting into various winter hi-jinks, this might be the cartoon for you.

Disney - Three Little Pigs - The Practical Pig (1939) https://www.supercartoons.net/cartoon/the-practical-pig/
These guys were supposed to get their own ongoing series, but it didn't pan out. Maybe audiences didn't like seeing their human flesh-tone asses wiggling about and getting spanked. Maybe no pigs could compete with the popularity of Porky. We just don't know
This has been a slow year for us furries, didn't have to start a topic all year. But then again, much of the new reveals happen at the obscure anthro character discord nowadays.
Just posting her about a godsend I received recently - I have been trying literally for years to get Mutant Rampage: Bodyslam to work on a Philips CDI emulator (yes, that infamous system - and yes, that same company who made the creepy Zelda animations made this game). Well, that still didn't succeed, but the next best thing did, a guy I found on spriterresources managed to extract the sprites from the game! So now I can finally check out the naked Centaur and Cheetah ladies, topless Rakshasi, and sexy swimsuit Gazelles and karate-robed Lionesses up close, not to mention the boss of Animorpha Roma, Tina Felina!
