@jcburcham Using a Porsche Martini and saying it’s not Jazz is like using a fighter jet (granted, not an Eagle) transformer with red highlights and a black helmet and saying it’s not Starscream.

@NAFEDUDE It’s difficult to say for MoM in particular because I can’t really understand what arc Strange is meant to be going on, if he is going on one at all. I get the sense that the script is a couple different ideas thrown together, so the through-line is a little muddled.
@GreatCheshire The actual argument is usually “inconsistent with what we know or have seen about the character”, but you can pretend otherwise to reinforce your opinion.
@chrismcfeely I find that a series is a better format for Transformers in general. The Cons always fall into the movie problem of being disposable bad guys, when arguably the appeal of TF was having recognizable characters on both sides.
