Re: NETFLIX War for Cybertron: SIEGE discussion WITH SPOILERS
The problem is that Hasbro thinks it's the next Marvel. Much like Marvel took over their own films, Hasbro is taking the same strategy but WITHOUT the quality. The non-union actors, the slavish adherence to the toys, and the writing/directing that is just barely there to push said toys.
Cyberverse is the same. It's a shame, because if they went the Marvel route and SPENT some of the money they have been raking in they could really impact fans new and old alike to take their stuff to the next level. Instead, it all just rings hollow.
This show looks nice, but it cheaps out on every aspect. Writing, story, repeating characters, voices, episode count... all cheap. It's not far off what they're doing with their toys... building up hype and banking on fan enthusiasm and forgiveness while cheaping out on the end product.
