Also, I really hope they lean in HARD to the world building. Like the different cities and cultural differences etc.
just saw TFone trailer!
thoughts. i think the art style is kinda goofy but it works okay. the character designs are very blocky but i prefer the blocky over micheal bay metal bard realism.
the casting is... fine? i mean it works for what they're going for but I think optimus and megatron should be more serious sounding. i mean, this plays into my other criticism of the trailer which is that i wish they were leaning more into the political drama aspects of the war origin stories because the darker sides are some of the best of the franchise....!!!! but whatever, i know that's too much to expect from movie producers that need their films to be palatable to the DUMB KIDS who couldn't possibly understand more complex plots 🙄 they're obviously going for an action comedy vibe which is whatever. i think there's still some substance there if they handle it well.
i at least DEMAND they don't have a completely happy ending. like, im gonna be pissed if they pull a "cruella" with megatron and give him a villain origin that isn't a villain origin at all actually. i think this is why im not happy about the quintessons being what looks to be the big bads, because it pulls a ton of attention away from the structural inequality that's supposed to drive all the prewar main conflicts.
AND by making orion a worker at the same level as megatron you REMOVE the unbalanced power dynamics that contribute to the interest of their relationship!!!!
im just saying i think i could write a better movie if i had the chance 😒
but i digress. I've been begging for a prewar movie for ages now, and even if it doesn't look incredible, it looks LEAGUES above ROTB so i am going to shut my mouth and be grateful. especially if this does well!!! MAYBE!!!! WE COULD SEE MORE ADAPTATIONS OF FRANCHISES NOT ON EARTH!! LOST LIGHT ANYONE??????
overall. My expectations are 7/10. I'll cry if I'm disappointed.

happy valentine’s day y’all! but especially Min (@noir-wing), my sheith valentine~
the prompt was an alternative universe thing so i thought i’d combine my two favorite aus, college/frat au and soulmate au, into a corny little comic that i like to refer to as the red solo cup of fate
just wanna see my sweet boys have a good time (and also kiss a lot)

The production value here is off the charts but this is also literally just what it feels like to play Uno.

americana manifestations of the 14 powers
The Vast
the american interstate highway system: driving into texas or montana or california and realizing how many more exits you have to go before you cross into another state, driving in the interstitial parts between cities with one eye on the gas gauge hoping you make it to the next gas station before you run out, the brief vertigo of glancing up through your sunroof on a clear, cloudless day on the road and seeing nothing but blue, or at night and seeing nothing but black
The Lonely
the american interstate highway system: road trips alone between the reach of local radio stations, hearing only the passing static as your stereo tries to latch on to any thread of contact, but you’re gone too fast to ever hear it clearly, stopping late night at empty gas stations on empty roads, meeting only the reflective eyes of a racoon near the dumpster and wondering if you’re the only person left on earth
The Dark
the american interstate highway system: the parts of it too distant to justify the cost of streetlights, the moment of panic when you turn off your high beams too soon and nearly miss a curve, swerving out of the way of a deer who seems to have materialized from nowhere, the blanketing blackness that seeps into your cab when there’s no other cars around at all
The Desolation
the american interstate highway system: seventeen-car pileups at poorly conceived city exits across nine lanes of traffic, the explosions of semi trucks and gas carriers, road rash stealing the skin from motorcyclists, the scream of ambulances carrying the burned, broken, crushed, impaled, shattered
The End
the american interstate highway system: the moment of panic when a truck turns too close to you, when you lose focus for a moment and almost don’t hit the brakes in time, when someone cuts you off, when you sneeze and lose the wheel for a moment, when you shift and the gears don’t catch, when you drift to the side and the road guard snaps you back to awareness
The Eye
the american interstate highway system: the surveillance state that exists when driving through large cities, the watchful eye on medians and under bridges for cops waiting with speed radars
The Hunt
the american interstate highway system: the sound of sirens behind you as you glance down at your speedometer and realize that you drifted up to the 90s without realizing, the brief moment of wondering if you could shake them off if you take this exit real quickly, the urge every time to just keep going
The Spiral
the american interstate highway system: what is this exit doing here. when did this local road turn into a highway. wasn’t that your turn? how the fuck did you end up in Atlanta again
The Stranger
the american interstate highway system: glimpses of people’s faces as you drive past, the false cheer of the people laughing on billboards, that one driver you saw years ago whose face changed every time you looked in the mirror
The Corruption 
the american interstate highway system: vultures lurking over dumped garbage bags, piles of fast food waste, the smell of a killed skunk contaminating the air for miles, the damp pull of asphalt under sun hot enough to melt
The Flesh
the american interstate highway system: you pass a dead bird. you pass a dead racoon. you pass a dead dog. you pass a dead deer. you pass a dead alligator. you pass a dead
The Slaughter
the american interstate highway system: the simmering rage of being eight hours in when the traffic congests and you slow from 85mph to a crawl, the force that drives men to lean out of their truck cabs with guns
The Buried
the american interstate highway system: you are driving through a tunnel under the bay and it is raining and the water is rising from below and pressing down from above and the tunnel gets smaller and smaller and you are driving through a tunnel through the mountain and the ground is shaking and the rocks are falling to block you in and you are driving through a tunnel and honestly who decided tunnels were a good idea
The Web
the american interstate highway system: self explanatory at this point really

13 year old Clark Kent learning about brood parasitism in middle school biology class and barely touching his dinner that night.
When both Ma and Pa are asleep he climbs out onto the roof, shuddering in the dark, because the teacher said some species' biological parents will secretly come by night to teach their young how to be a proper cuckoo or cowbird even as they're still steadily starving their foster nest. Maybe he can just convince whoever left him here to just take him away again--find a different nest. He doesn't want to hurt anyone here.
