Carnage in C-Minor. TF review

transformers episode 83 - Carnage in C-minor part 3

Ah, yes. Here’s another third season episode from the old Transformers show. The TF fan base rates this episode as one of the worst episodes ever created in its four seasons. And, there is a reason for that.

This episode is full of animation flaws. And, it is to the point that it’ll make you laugh watching the episode.

Given that the third season is full of animation errors, Carnage in C-minor is one of the worst. The reason the animation is so poor in this episode has something do with the owners of the show switching to cheaper Korean studios after the second season. And, this one really shows the difference from the second season.

The sizes of all the robots change from scene to scene.

It’s a real shame they decided to cheapen the show, because it could have easily lasted a full fourth season and maybe a fifth.

The plot isn’t that much compelling and does seem a little out of place given the darker Sci-Fi tone of the third season. Plus, alien singing voices are annoying to say the least.

Grade: C- (minor, he-he)

Interesting points

~The sound effect for the music is the same sound effect used for the probe signal in Star Trek IV The Voyage Home. Listen closely.

~The plotline from this episode seems like a throwback to the second season.

~Yes, this is the same episode where Perceptor owns Devastator.

Uh, two of these characters are supposed to be dead, because they died during the movie. Yet, they show up for this episode.

Ultra Magnus is way oversized here. There is no way he can grab both of these guys like basketballs. It just looks like Magnus has his own toy Constructicons.
