You know that post that was going around a while back, talking about how one of the buckwild things about Transformers is that it's like a few dozen major players on both sides of the war and they all know each other?

Because that was genuinely hilarious (the idea of seeing the enemy general across the battlefield and thinking oh, no, it's THIS asshole again is just gold), but also, on a serious note: I think this is actually one of the real draws of Transformers.

It's warfare made intimate. Modern war stories usually depict it in all its vast, impersonal, mechanical real-world horror, for obvious reasons - and Transformers can do that, too, sometimes - but there's something so... awful and compelling at once, to think about what it would be like to fight a war where you come to know so many of the enemy by name. What it would mean to live for eons and eons and spend them all fighting this one guy. What it would actually be like to live that scene in MTMTE where everyone's talking about their personal archnemeses in the other faction - that strange paradox of not really understanding the enemy at all, and knowing them better than you know yourself. It draws on images from legend, of war as it probably never really was: it's Hector and Achilles at the gates of Troy, it's samurai calling out their enemies to duel on the battlefield, it's Hannibal and Scipio secretly meeting the night before one of their armies will annihilate the other.

And that will always be fascinating.

Idg why people are against busty women in turtlenecks, literally who cares if you have “uniboob”? To whom do you owe separate and defined titties? Only cowards and fools fear the breast monolith
