Siege The Worst Transformers Commercial Ever Made

Transformers Siege is, on the merits of selling the toy line, the worst Transformers serries ever made.
And it's existence actively makes the line less profitable.

This idea goes against the 2-pack, but I still think it works: Thundercracker should have been in Impactor's place. He was already doubtful of the Decepticons so it would make sense.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

That would have made sense yes. It could have been done with any character who was actually a deception though.

[@slave7022]

"Everyone looks like they don't wanna get shot" lol I wonder why.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

There's cool action and there's realistic action, and there is a mixture of cool and realistic action. This is not cool action. This is boring action.

[@HORRIOR1]

I think the biggest plot hole in Siege is the fact that the whole conflict could've been ended far too easily. Ultra Magnus: "Look, we have an arc. If you let us gather enough fuel, we can just leave the planet." Megatron: "If you promise not to come back I will give it to you." Not at ANY point was it conveyed that both sides wouldn't have agreed to this.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I think they were under the idiot impression, that both sides are actually war mongers unwilling to let the war actually end.

Thanks netflix for giving this trilogy series little budget so we have 6 episodes each series and making a lot of plot crammed of each other (sarcasm)

I think that was more the writers fault for not working within his constraints.

[@mattyboyanderson]

Remember there was a terrible Combiner Wars show? No? Exactly. If the toys are good (and agreed, they're great), it's all good. The toys will always outlive the taint. Ahem. (Also in fairness to a bad show- traditionally, a blaster wound to the shoulder kills a Transformer.)

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Ok that blaster wound went through the top of Brawns shoulder and out his lower back. Essentially it went through his EVERYTHING. They are not identical wounds. And I'd say the G1 show, and Beast Wars out lived the figures by a wide margin.

[@jawanzamarsh3867]

@@PerspectiveEnd true. There's also the fact that that blaster wound came from Megatron in his gun mode. Regardless of the series, just about all of us would consider a blast from Megatron to instantly be far more powerful than one from Jetfire.

[@warriorking4ever]

Okay, sorry for the super long post, but yeah, you pretty much nailed everything I found to be an issue with this latest series. Oh sure, everything looks nice (except for Megatron's hideous lips, which make me think Megs is going through a mid life crisis & had some work done on his face by Knockout & it went HORRIBLY wrong XD), but the show FAILED to make me care about anybody or what was going on. Oh sure, I know who everyone is because I've been a TF fan since the good ol days of G1, BUT the new series was unable to make me care about these new incarnations. For example, when Magnus died, instead of being heartbroken over his untimely demise, I was at best disappointed that they wasted his character potential so completely. I mean heck, watch any episode of G1 & you'll see plenty of examples of random characters who never received a focus episode but were always there as part of the cast or who joined the ranks offscreen one day without a major introduction, & yet nearly all of them remain iconic & memorable to this day simply because the writers did such a good job of making you care about them as people, or because the voice actors performances gave them so much personality and/or a unique voice, accent, or manner of speaking that made them stand out. The Siege cartoon on the other hand, doesn't do any of that, the majority of the cast have little to no personality & bland, forgettable voices that don't stick with you at all, which is a problem for any television series, not just one who's main purpose for existing is to promote interest in a toyline, especially when the target audience are older, more critical fans with higher standards than a much younger audience (not knocking younger fans or saying they have no taste, just saying they're easier to please than longtime TF toon fans or adult collectors who've been following along since the beginning). I too think I would have preferred evil & loving it Megatron, I mean yes, I don't mind his background as a working class hero who's fallen from grace to become far worse than his former oppressors, but I feel like at THIS point in his reign Megatron should be beyond self-doubt simply because of how far he's gone, & that characters like Magnus & Jetfire should have KNOWN better than to expect, well, better of him. Megatron CLEARLY believes that he and he alone knows whats best for Cybertron & that anyone who stands against him must clearly be evil & must be dealt with using extreme prejudice even if the one opposing him used to be his dearest friend, thats not the sort of person who doubts himself, thats the sort of person who doesn't doubt himself ENOUGH. The idea of Prime, Magnus, & Megs having been a band of brothers once upon a time & fellow pupils to Alpha Trion could have worked, but the way it was executed just didn't work, especially given the limited episode count & lack of any flashbacks of their past together. Also, yes, Siege Prime comes off as being too weak & inept to be the leader of the autobot resistance, he doesn't have to be absolutely perfect or invincible mind you (that would be boring), but he SHOULD be the big damn hero of the team, the one bot who can give Megatron a run for his money & send lesser cons running for the hills, the one everyone looks to for guidance instead of the one obviously everyone doubts (I assume the only reason why there aren't any power plays against Optimus is because no one else wants to take the blame for how seriously DOOMED they obviously believe themselves to be lol). I said before that the Kingdom toyline, which currently doesn't have an animated season of its own yet, is what got me back into transformers collecting, out of nostalgic love for Beast Wars, whereas I might have let the Siege toyline pass me by completely due to how bad the netflix series has proven to be thus far if not for online reviewers like you who stood up for their quality despite their crappy animated counterparts tainting their characters...Netflix seems to have bad luck with animated reboots of shows based off a toyline these days, makes ya wonder why toy companies keep trusting them with their intellectual properties. P.S. sorry to go off topic, & no offense to autobot Megatron fans, but I personally CANNOT stand that concept (its one of the reasons why I lost interest in collecting the IDW comics), its one thing for Shattered Glass Megatron to be a benevolent alternate reality counterpart to the wicked Megs we know & love, but I just can't take the notion of a brutal warlord like Megatron "redeeming himself" & going good seriously after he spent millions of years pillaging & plundering his way across Cybertron & the universe at large in the name of tyranny & megalomania. I do believe in second chances, I do believe in redemption, BUT I also believe there are limits to how much evil one can do before the very notion of redemption becomes a pipe dream. Someone with Megatron's bodycount can't just decide "I don't wanna be evil anymore," slap an autobot symbol on his chest, & avoid life imprisonment or execution for crimes against all sentient life.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Damn you weren't kidding. I looked at the unextended version and thought it didn't look too long. Then I opened it. I think they trust Netflix with it not because they have a proven track record, but because they are cheap. And I think while the switch to Good was Abrupt and poorly handled for Megatron in the IDW comic, after it was done they did a good job convincing you that he finally realized how truly rancid he let the movement and his actions become, and had him deal with a crushing realization, that not only did he ruin his own revolution, and legacy, but he created monsters and problems that would continue actively scaring the universe for generations to come. There's even a bit at the end where he creates the Decepticons again, but this time he wanted to do it right, and not let the mistakes of the past happen again. It's really well handled AFTER the start.

@warriorking4ever Can't tell if you're saying that because you dislike Unicron Trilogy and Beast Wars or not.

[@existential_narwal9257]

Yeah Roosterteeth, the creators of the show, are know to screw up a lot of their good shows like Red vs blue, and Rwby.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Well actually Roosterteeth are just the Producers, what ever that means. The Writer of the show is FJ Desanto who wrote the PWT long before RTs involvement, and the Animation is done by the same company that did TF Prime's animation a decade ago, plus the Voice Acting is provided by yet a third company. I have no clue what Roosterteeth does in their producer roll, as it seems to actually be nothing, but it's fair to say that it's other peoples fault way more than it is theirs.

No recreational activities. They are not relatable. I either want WEIRD season 3 sci-fi or the Autobots working with humans so I have some thing Earth-related I can get on board with.

The Fulton Ansley Project transformers have all of those like he said you should read the comics.

[@MmMm-sf7pe]

Spot on video! And yeah, they even screwed up Starscream x Jetfire. And also Starscream's interactions with Megatron are weirdly impersonal, so there's also no Megatron x Starscream potential. Like, the trope is called "enemies to lovers", not "impersonal coworkers to lovers." I think that kind of sums up the overall problem, which you mentioned: there are almost no personal interactions. Of any kind. It's just a bullet list of "things the writer thought would look cool" with no connective tissue. The most Siege scene of all is Ultra Magnus in that cloak. It makes NO sense, it does NOTHING to hide his form. It would only work as a comedy beat. But because the writer thought, "Wow, wouldn't it be cool to have UM in a cloak dramatically revealing himself" there it is, played completely straight.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah I wasn't exactly gunning for those romances my self I was just saying you gotta give people something to latch onto, and they had nothing, and a relationship of any type would have filled that gap. Yeah The cloak scene is dumb, not the least reason of which being "THEY HAVE FABRIC ON CYBERTRON!"

[@Megamanlanprime]

Well… a plot centered story can work just fine but there needs to be an actual plot - one thing Seige has an issue with is too many plot points (Megatron’s decent into the cruel tyrant, Taking the Allspark off of Earth, Jetfire’s betrayal, Starscream’s rise to Megatron’s right hand man, The attempt to rewrite the Autobots, trying to leave Cybertron on the Ark, Optimus learning to be a leader, etc) now most of that would be fine… with some writers that know more then the G1 cartoon and the Movies but also that really only works for a 25-52 episode series. The series isn’t horrible… but it’s certainly not good either.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

I'd say that a 52 episode serries crammed down into 6 episodes would by it's very nature have to suck no matter what.

[@Megamanlanprime]

@@PerspectiveEnd for sure. This story just was such a mess that was desperate to get all of its plot points out that the story and characters suffered for not having time to flush them out.

The marketing of WFC Trilogy was so Awful, it's supposed to be hyped as characters who are in the war, but they're just there to window dress saying "Woah, it's that blue and white robot who turns into a racecar" or "OMP, it's those random decepticons who barely have screen time". If it was focusing on the characters, it would've been like a 7/10 for me, but.. stories in the Transformers universe are being hammered by many people's throats by Hasbro's evil executives just to milk the Transformers franchise to make more money. The creators would be like " Yo, we can't have a War For Cybertron movie, because people aren't going to see it in theaters, so let's just let Netflix make it a TV show and have only 6 episodes to pander to g1 fans to get money from those Netflix subscribers". The trilogy has been rushed since episode one till episode 20. We don't need slow dialogue to pad out the runtime. Another thing that's rushed is the voice acting. Most of the actors suck like even my favorite anime voice actor Keith Silverstein is wasted. Most of the actors lack the energy and due to the nonexistent writing, the acting is all over the place. Overall, The Trilogy got even worse when watching it again on Netflix and it felt like a waste of time. I give it a 4/10 instead of a 6/10. Earthspark has originality and clever dialogue and has a great connection of G1 rather than pandering. The acting in Earthspark is really good, even the weakest voice is better than Optimus Prime's voice in WFC. If a show by NICKELODEON by all companies is doing better than a streaming service, something is absolutely wrong. I'm glad Netflix cancelled the series and I don't want it to be greenlit ever again..

Look how DC comics is doing animations based on previous and current stories.

[@warknightxl2167]

I may be late, but I have this to say. Great video on Netflix series man. At first, I like it, but over time, I eventually dislike it, now I consider Netflix's WFC series the worst TF show I've watched and the worst cartoon show in my opinion. I don't really a lot of positive things to say about, just my dislikes. What with the poor dialogues, story being rushed, lack of character development/personality, poor voice acting and my biggest issue with it is that the show tried so hard to be dark and gritty to the point I don't even care for the characters, not everyone needs to be a tough guy. I much prefer Bumblebee being a light-hearted and kid appeal character. One of the reasons why I really love the transformers franchise is that every characters has their own/different unique personalities. Optimus Prime is a noble and inspiring leader, Bumblebee is scout who acts like a little brother and so desperate to be accepted, Ratchet is a medic who dislikes violence, Ironhide is a tough and old soldier, Jazz is a cool bot who adores music and earth culture, Arcee is a deadly warrior, hunter, but still kind, and more characters with unique personalities. I don't mind if anyone likes this series since everyone has an opinion, I respect that, but when some people think that making a show that is dark and mature automatically means it is great, but it's not. What makes a good content is not the tone, but the writing and direction quality. That's all I have to say. It's just my opinion on this series. Thanks for this video man. 👍

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Yeah, it's really annoying to talk with people about it when they think being dark is an Inherently positive quality. A dark show doesn't make it good, it makes it dark, and it's up to the show maker to make being dark, good.

I mean the designs were just ripped from the toys, so anything they didn't have control over was good I suppose. And oh yeah, the Prime voice Sucked.

[@0pt1tr0nD27]

I mean to be fair its probably the most realistic fight scenes not a lot of real world gun fights are gonna involve someone charging in with a knife while the enemy is safely behind cover

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Beast Wars had a lot of fight scenes from behind cover, and they were better handled. I'm not saying that this kind of action can't be good, I'm saying it wasn't done well here.

The other thing that annoyed me is I feel this series is inaccessible to people who aren't already TF fans. They don't introduce half the characters properly, they don't explain why the war started (blink and you will miss the inference that there was a caste system like IDW), and they don't even really explain what the Matrix of Leadership is. It's so stupid. This is on Netflix, it would have been the perfect opportunity to get new people on board.

Oh absolutely. The serries was set up in a way that you needed to be Eminently familiar with the franchise to understand it, but it was set up for fans to enjoy. They appeased no one with this.

I can understand dissliking some of characters aka (Niko, Wheeljack) but even do Im not the biggest fan of TFPat least we can agree(or at least I hope we can) , it is better them most of Japanize G1 continuetion and most of Unicron TRILOGY put together (at least in my opinion).

Well Miko and Wheeljack are absolutely HORRENDOUS. Two of the most Insufferable characters I've ever had the displeasure of watching, but I got more reasons. I plan to make a video about it one day. But I guess, a preview would be that when the show isn't being Obnoxious, it's being boring.

@@PerspectiveEnd I don’t mean it’s written nearly as well as beast wars, but to me I like the animation and while arguably lazy I like the complete accuracy to the toys.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

@@Milliethepumpkin I'd say it had good concepts but terrible execution. And I'm the exact opposite on the Designs looking like the toys. I think the shows should always look better than the toys so future releases like Masterpieces have something to strive to perfect. Look at Beast Wars, there isn't much rush to make things past the beginning of the Transmetals in the Masterpiece line because the toys were basically already exactly the show models.

I think Transformers fans are 2nd only to StarWars fans for how toxic they are. No matter what they do it's never good enough, figures are too small, the story for kids isn't exactly how each individual adult wants it, too much clear plastic. And for the love of god stop with the comparisons and "homage" to G1. They came out almost 40 years ago and are ugly and stupid as hell looking now days. Its fine to love them and what not , hell i have a G1 Devastator but the figures we get today are 10 fold superior and are just incredible, especially the Studio Series! The amount of detail and weapon storage among other things they manage to do while paying respect to the past is unreal especially in the Dulux and Voyager classes. We should be over the moon with what we can get and encourage new ideas and designs.

[@PerspectiveEnd]

Man that was all over the place. You seem to be criticising people being to discerning with toys, but you did it on a review of one of the WORST shows Hasbro has ever made. Yes I'm also very critical of the toys, but not because they aren't G1 enough or something like that. I'm actually very happy to see new designs. I don't want to go back to the old days where toys were worse, but I do see when Hasbro decided they could be cheap with this figure. Just look at the difference between Deluxe Siege Ironhide, and Deluxe Legacy Wildrider. Siege Ironhide was cheaper at the time, is bigger, has more articulation, and a more fun transformation. It's better in all ways when compared to the Legacy Wildrider.
