EPISODE 19: CALL OF THE WILD

Paul: Speaking of man-gay
 

Paul: ep. 19 CALL OF THE WILD
 

Paul: That's a zalda game.
 

Paul: Cheetar is dreaming of hunting gazelles, then falls into a pit, then ONCE AGAIN THE PREDS ARE JUST THERE ATTACKING although this time it's en media res so okay better.
 

Paul: What are the psychological effects of living in beast form -- even sleeping in beast form -- for so long?
 

Paul: On robots?
 

Paul: In space?

 

Paul: It's like how soldiers can't come home from the war because in war they wear a different personality.

Paul: However good this episode is I'm afraid it will have at best half the power of the one Animorphs book where Tobias eats roadkill.
 

Paul: Or the other one where Tobias maybe fucks a bird.
 

Paul: The lady-hawk.
 

Paul: Um Dinobot and Cheetar are complete bad-asses and charge machine gun fire to TACKLE THE GUNNERS ??!
 

Paul: Nice.
 

Paul: I love the semi-seriously storyline and all the missiles and explosion and theeeeeeenn...Dinobot throws Scropbro into a rock and he is flat because funny cartoon!

Paul: I love that.
 

Paul: Guns are fun, kids.
 

Paul: Megatron laughs maniacally and the camera goes inside of his mouth??
 

Paul: Omg everybody is having beast nightmares.
 

Paul: Dinobot picks up an ENTIRE Hadrosaur and worries it like a bone.
 

Paul: Um sorry weren't those the size of elephants?
 

Paul:

Paul: The lack of articulation in the Hadrosaur model makes it look like a gummy dinosaur.
 

Paul: Okay so they all beast-sleepwalk into the jungle!
 

Paul: Although I remember this all being cliffs and rocks actually.

Paul: But now it's a jungle.

Paul: Ummm?????!!!!!
 

Paul: Megatron is being carried on a litter???? TONIGHT WE HUNT and Black Wifey has a tiger-skin drum?!?!
 

Paul: Daaamn this is insane.
 

Paul: This entire hunting scene is so fucking surreal and so incredibly bad-ass.
 

Paul: Hunting from the air with automatic weapons...now that's a sport!
 

Paul: Omg yes.
 

Paul: This entire episdoe was bad-ass.
 

Paul: They accepted their animal selves.
 

Paul: So Freud.
 

Paul: Then they pulled off some insane stunts and the baddies ran away, go team!!

Paul: Megatron's bone and tiger-skin hunting litter won't leave my mind. What a batshit episode. They had fun with it.
 

Paul: You aren't a fan of the original Transformers?
 

Me: I loved it when I was like 10 but it hasn't aged very well I don't think. The more distinctive and memorable characters are fun but the old episodes are kind of hard to sit through, especially the post-movie seasons where the entire original cast was dead and all the new characters sucked.
 

Me: The movie is badass.
 

Me: Technically probably not that good but who cares.

 

Paul: A phrase applicable to so many things.
 

Me: Like life.
