Talk:Beast Wars II: Super Lifeform Transformers (franchise)

2 or II

Say, should Beast Wars the Second stuff on this Wiki be called "Beast Wars II" or "Beast Wars 2"? A search shows twelve occurances of the former and ten of the latter. --KilMichaelMcC 13:15, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

The onscreen logo itself uses the Roman numeral. -LV 15:02, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Then I will go ahead and change those ten 2's to II's. --KilMichaelMcC 17:19, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

What's that? Official Romanizations you say?

From ISBN 4-06-103322-0 (a BW2 guidebook from 1998)

Destrons:

• Megastorm, not Megastrom
• Starscream not Starscrem
• Darge not Dirge (?! I'm inclined to ignore this one...)

Maximals:

• Apachi (a romanization I consider far superior)

-Derik 05:04, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Because Japan never ever fucks up English because they only use it because it looks cool.

No.

--M Sipher 05:41, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Thus- I rpefer Apachi, not 'I insist everyone use it.' OTOH, I loathe Megastrom and Starscrem, which I've actualy seem language-faccists use. And I rejoince at seeing actual japanese--used correct romanizations to IN YOUR FACE WILLIS them. -Derik 06:27, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

IDW

Okay. A version of the Beast Wars II story now exists in IDW continuity, they've slowly been revealing portions of it through the profiles. Since we can now peice together at least a passing idea of how it went and how it differed from the anime story I think THIS version of the BWII story could really use a page to bring all its disperate facts together, but what sort of page? [[Beast Wars II (IDW)]]? or and [[IDW Beast Wars Timeline]]? What would be the best way to work this story info in? Thoughts? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 71.235.142.128 (talk • contribs).

[[IDW Beast Wars Timeline]] seems more prudent. While events in the IDW Beast Wars continuity might parallel BWII and Neo, these divisions do not exist in the continuity itself. So a unified timeline seems to make more sense.--Rosicrucian 02:55, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

Works for me. Which would be the best parsing then: [[IDW Beast Wars timeline]] or Beast Wars timeline (IDW)?--ZacWilliam 10:40, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

I think we can create [[Beast Wars II (IDW)]] linked from Beast Wars II and another article named Beast Wars timeline (IDW), something likes that. --TX55 11:05, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

• A toyline.
• A manga series.
• A [[Beast Wars II (IDW)|comic]] series(note: I don't know how to name it.) publish by IDW Publishing.
• A television series.
• A theatrical-release movie, Beast Wars Special.

I started giving it a shot but went with a generic Beast Wars (comic) page and then added links to a potential Beast Wars timeline (IDW) from there (and from the BW2 and BWN pages. Sound good to folks?

Again, there is no Beast Wars II in IDW Continuity. There are events that parallel the events of Beast Wars II, but unless IDW starts a series named "Beast Wars II" or uses that name to reference something I don't think we should start [[Beast Wars II (IDW)]] as these events are just backstory to the continuity.--Rosicrucian 14:57, 1 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree. Which you'll notice is why I made the pages the more all encompasing Beast Wars (comic) and Beast Wars timeline (IDW) rather than what was originally suggested, so that they can include the parrallel BWII/Neo info but don't imply that the info was released under said label.

Apology In Advance

I am here to just say that on youtube I am creating a Beast Wars II Abrdiged Series, and in it basically all the Destrons hate this site. (Starscream hates it because this site says he probably sounds like Maximillion Pegasus, and due to this he does, and the rest of the Destrons hate this site because their pages are incorrect or incomplete, except for Galvatron.)I am just saying this is a joke, and I do not mean anything bad against this site. I have a lot of respect for this site since I first joined and I am just saying please don't get mad at me and complain. I have not started this series yet so If you do not want me to do this, I shall respect that and walk away. Basically I am asking permission to make these jokes. If you wish to see this series, it can be found under my Youtube account with the same name. So in summary, would it be okay if I have the Destrons mock this site in my abridged series? MrLordGalvatron 13:54, 13 January 2011 (EST)

Wait, hold up, do you have like, access to the whole series? I don't speak for the wiki, though I think most of us won't mind being mocked in an abridged series on youtube, we would appreciate some help over on the Beast Wars II part of the site. Our episode summaries for Beast Wars II are themselves dismally incomplete. You could ridicule us all you want, but if you found time to fill in the holes we're missing about the actual series, that'd be awesome! --Ascendron 15:33, 13 January 2011 (EST)

The problem isn't availability. The problem is that it's in a language only three or so regular editors understand. —Interrobang 01:54, 14 January 2011 (EST)

Well, I don't have every single episode, but I have enough to fill in some missing points. I can get to work on that ASAP. MrLordGalvatron 11:32, 14 January 2011 (EST)

I have all the episodes... --Lonegamer78 15:22, 14 January 2011 (EST)

Every episode of the series is actually available, last time I checked, on You Tube (albeit in raw Japanese, but under this guy's account). So we all have access to the episodes. I started summarizing them for about 5 or so episodes after McFeely dropped off, but I just hate that series so much and get so little enjoyment out of watching it that I can't find the enthusiasm to go on. --DrSpengler 17:11, 14 January 2011 (EST)

If I told you it would make you my hero, would that give you the enthusiasm you needed? --Ascendron 17:54, 14 January 2011 (EST)

Well, I'd certainly deserve a Medal of Valor for sitting through that whole rancid series...DrSpengler 18:02, 14 January 2011 (EST)

Don't worry, I'll soon be joining you watching every episode and then translating it. Do any of you know where I can find the movie without subtitles?MrLordGalvatron 11:35, 19 January 2011 (EST)
