J'ai vu le film Appleseed.
'88 Appleseed or '04 Appleseed?
Transformers G1 -
Finished season 2. Next up is the movie, which didn't come with the series and I currently have on order.
Season 2 is fairly atrocious on the whole if you're looking for sane plots. Disc 2 of season 2.2 is probably the worst.
Sea Change - Seaspray falls in love with a humanoid who has access to a spring which lets him be transformed into a human himself. When this doesn't pan out as he can't fight any more like that, they both use it to change into robots instead.
Triple Takeover - Not sure whether the writers even knew where they were going this episode. Starts off with Starscream, Blitzwing, and Astrotrain planning to betray Megatron, with Blitzwing and Astrotrain intending to include Starscream in the bargain, which goes off without a hitch, but then... Blitzwing
takes over a football stadium and starts misinterpreting the frightened babbling of a team coach as tactical plans, and Astrotrain adds token artificial intelligence to a bunch of trains. Astrotrain's story is probably best displayed by
this clip. It's not explained how the trains ended up like they are at the start there - maybe it's supposed to be implied that they're just painfully stupid. It doesn't help that they're on the worst railroads of all time - in addition to the track that runs straight into the wall as seen there, earlier on they were opening electrical cables which were hanging low enough across the tracks to allow them to just run into them. Furthermore, the water main that's ruptured there floods the city to several stories deep in a matter of minutes. Blitzwing's insanity results in a number of Autobots being thoroughly crushed (literally) which was a nice change, but by the end of the episode they're all back on their feet without having been tended to somehow. Um.
All up, the episode does lead to
this exchange at least.
Prime Target - A big game hunter is aiming for Optimus Prime's head.
Auto-Bop - The decepticons are running a disco which is hypnotizing people into constructing a building the purpose of which is never revealed.
The Search For Alpha Trion - FEMALE AUTOBOTS
The Girl Who Loved Powerglide - A girl falls in love with Powerglide sort of. He doesn't appreciate it. At one point he punchs her to the ground at one point which is not really something you see Autobots getting up to but sadly I cannot find a clip on short notice.
Hoist Goes Hollywood - Hoist gets noticed by a bigshot director and invited to work on movies. A bunch of other Autobots get in on the action only to find that it is not what they expected.
And of course there is the final episode of season 2 which is pretty atrocious in general and should be
read about.

Started watching this. Not much to say about it yet. So far Butcher is nowhere near as
fabulous as SRW had for some reason made me expect. It is saddening.
