I have to admit it makes me feel bad for the Autobots; Sentinel Prime is not exactly the guy I'd want naming me.
I think Bumblebee got off pretty lightly, all things considered.
(Also, as the wiki points out, you have to wonder what Optimus and Elita did to get those names, exactly...)
I hadn't thought of that, but they must have been pretty impressive recruits!
That was extremely creepy, especially given the minimal nature of the evidence. I'm not sure I like the Animated Autobots. (Available evidence is that the Decepticons are worse, mind you.)
This is why I want a flashback to how the war started - I'd love to know if they're acting like jerks because there's a war on, or if there's a war on because they acted like jerks ... Not that there's anything that could justify Megatron's behaviour, but I do wonder if he has a point about Decepticons being mistreated on Cybertron. And if so, what the Autobot justification was.
Also: Shockwave! Glee! I almost thought it was Ironhide, on the grounds that it's always the guy you least suspect, until Longarm started getting all buddy-buddy with Bumblebee. Even then, I did not catch on to his alter ego.
Apparently Ironhide was listed as a Decepticon on the CartoonNetwork site months ago, which threw even the spoiler hounds off the scent. Someone is either really smart or really dumb.
(Due to a mistaken IMDB listing, I'd been kind of worried that Blurr was going to be the traitor. This is much better.)
Way, way better! Blurr is awesome just the way he is.
Oooh, yes, please. I know Lockdown and Prowl have all that chemistry, but Lockdown/Swindle is considerably more plausible.
They have spoken to each other, which is more than some Transformers pairings have going for them *g*.
