Talk:Transform and Roll Out!
in the credits there is only one A in Teletran 1 should that be reflected when talking about Animated Teletran 1?Gspro15198 16:50, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
- Yes. --ItsWalky 16:52, 29 December 2007 (UTC)
Long Synopsis
I'm thinking enthusiasm has made the synopsis way longer than it needs to be. Opinions? JW 15:12, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Looks fine. It is three episodes, after all. —Interrobang 16:43, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- For comparison, the synopsis for MTMTE, part 1, is 502 words. The synopsis for T&RO, part 1, is 795 words. Alternately, the wordcount for the synopsis of TFTM is 1,151 words. The count for T&RO parts 1-3 together is 2,094 words. I think T&RO is great, but I don't think it inherently needs this many words to synopsize. JW 17:13, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Dudes, what it needs is screen captures to space out the text. Which reminds me, I need to rewrite my entire recap for Beast Wars Part 1. I was soooo into it I went way, way, way overboard compared to this. --FFN 17:32, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- "More Than Meets the Eye, Part 3" gets 1,006 words. Obviously, the size is variable, fitting to the needs of the plot. If you see a part that can be summarized, then go ahead and do it, but I don't the need to make it a priority. —Interrobang 17:45, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, I don't think it's a huge priority, either. I just wanted to make sure that if I edit it for length, a few months down the road, there won't be a bigass hue and cry. JW 17:58, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
- I'm going to screen cap the episode now, if nobody minds. Of course, I have to watch through this episode again to get the screencaps. --FFN 18:11, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

- I think Interrobang has a point: it is three episodes. Splitting it up would make it much shorter, but do we want to do that? -- SFH 19:03, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
Megatron's hand
I'm pretty sure Sumdac's Megatron hand-chair was intended to be the hand we see removed. Why else would the camera linger on it so long after it's blown off? That's prime "You'll be seeing this later" cinematic language. --ItsWalky 04:04, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- Well, considering the target age group of the show, I suppose it's not asking too much for viewers to believe the hand could've come off during the battle above Earth and somehow stayed with Megatron all the way down to his landing in Paw Paw...--Apcog 04:20, 6 January 2008 (UTC)
- I think they made a minor error here, the chance of the hand landing right next to him wen he falls off the ark is unlikely. besides, what kid would ever even depict WHAT hand got blown up, and is used as a chair now? on another note, does anyone notice that megatron's head is already in his earth mode's form?--Grand-majin 19:16, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
- It isn't, really. The outer helmet area is gone, simply revealing some stuff that was underneath it, or so it appeared to me.--Apcog 20:03, 11 January 2008 (UTC)
- Maybe Sumdac reapers it?--IguanaNik
Ellipseseses
Getting nitpicky here, but I learned the rule of ellipsis punctuation as three dots with no surrounding spaces if it was in the middle of a sentence, unless it represented portion of text specifically omitted, as opposed to a dramatic pause. I'll go along with trimming four dots down to three, but why insert spaces when I took the trouble to remove them some time ago?--Apcog 22:00, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
