I feel like maybe I should keep this at the top of my profile for anyone peeping and wanting to assume/cherry pick rather than actually look at the whole picture.
You have the right to bear arms.
You have the right to film feds.
You have the right to protest.
These rights don't go away simply because they're inconvenient for the government.
@Sorakotv When are people gonna get the memo lol. This is ALL TEMPORARY. Everything changes after Secret Wars. The whole universe is gonna be reset with a bunch of new people and a few old people. One streamlined timeline. None of this shit is gonna matter in the grand scheme of things.
@celestialdevils Lets see. Doomsday. X-“MEN” not mentioned as appearing:
Wolverine
Iceman
Colossus
Angel
Bishop
Sunspot
Warpath
It’s almost as if they are saving the BIG fight for Secret Wars. Where I am sure legacy Storm, Rogue, (maybe Jean?) and others will be back.
Jon Hamm says he accepted Top Gun: Maverick before hearing the salary and told his agents they were fired if they lost the role
“I’m driving down the road and my phone rings. It’s my agent: ‘They want you to do a part in the Top Gun sequel’”
“I was like, ‘Well then, the answer is yes’”
“They’re like, ‘Well, we don’t know the money and this and that.’ I was like, ‘No, no, no, no, no. The answer is yes. You work out the details, but the answer is yes’”
“‘If this goes away, you’re all fired’”
“To flash back to being 13, 14 years old in 1985, be asked to be a part of the next chapter of this, and then basically have all of my scenes be with Tom Cruise - it was like, ‘No, this is a no-brainer’”
“‘The answer is yes. I’m sure it will be a big hit.’ And it was”
Fun fact @TFHypeGuy. The original working name for Nexus was Maximus Prime. That evolved in to Nexus Maximus when Hasbro was like “we gotta keep the name ‘Prime’ special”, and then finally Nexus Prime when Hasbro forgot to remove the safe search while checking the previous name.
@DNabrotzky@Protoman@TFHypeGuy Technically he debuted via the TCC. Skyfall made his first appearance in 2005 with the final Nexus Prime mode revealed in issue #30 of the Transformers Collectors’ Club Magazine. Concept originated in 2004 via a thought I had and a formal blessing from Simon Furman.
Not sure why Skyguard is red and Breakaway is blue, but I’m not losing any sleep over it. Miss them more not being clear plastic. That was all based on my fondness for early 2000’s Japanese clear plastic editions, specifically the Spychangers.
The ‘crazy’ part of this is when I first proposed in late 2004 the yet to be named original 13 Prime character (with Simon Furman’s blessing) the initial idea was that the center part was the Prime, the limbs, drones. Forest Lee reworked it to the split in to 5 parts story. ->
At that point, realized this was perfect. The idea of them thrown across various universes was then developed. The issue with Heatwave being a Decepticon was solved via Shattered Glass. Speaking of new names, still hilarious I submitted Breakaway cuz… Kelly Clarkson song. ->
@TFHypeGuy I picked the colors, the molds, and choose the two new names (Breakaway via Kelly Clarkson and Heatwave)… My main issue is that it’s not clear blue and red plastic. But it’s all good.
I’ve literally been saying this for years. It was obvious. Everybody’s getting older. It was getting too confusing. You take it back to its roots and have everybody from the X-Men, Fantastic Four, and the Avengers start from the same point in time. A new slate of young actors.
Kevin Feige says ‘AVENGERS: SECRET WARS’ will introduce a new universe that is easier for audiences to follow.
“It will establish a streamlined, simplified, single universe that’s easier for audiences to follow. Some aspects will feel familiar. But many, many things will be entirely new.”

Fun fact
Mini pigs are way cleaner and smarter than you think. They can be fully litter-trained, learn tricks like a dog, follow routines, and even recognize 100+ words.

@ScottMendelson As someone that watches the box office, you should know it all boils down to the second weekend drop. I mean, you can’t be that fucking stupid right? I don’t have a dog in this race. But don’t be fucking stupid. We won’t know anything until next weekend.
@DiaBraveSid@TRUCKvsGUN Because that was the only date available at that location in July. Also, in 2026, basically no vendors cross the border and most shows are localized. Anyway,
there are no ‘hard feelings’ that would have a date chosen for a show lol.
@LavenderLsbn Well, when you charge premium prices for admission but then go with super cut rate facilities for your show to boost profits, what do you expect? Something has to pay for that new mansion… (that’s not a joke.)
The lengths people are going to say this is 100% fan made and it’s not official in any way is really kind of silly. You really have no idea how much stuff makes it to market that doesn’t go through every proper official channel and so on. Whatever I guess.
@Ivysaurus4@TF_Moments At this point who cares, you know? You have all these people that have/had officially worked on TF media. They all truly care about the brand. Just enjoy what everyone is putting in to these projects.
America turns 250 today.
Let me read back the resume.
We started by telling a king to pound sand, in writing.
By 1803 we bought half a continent from France for about four cents an acre.
We fought a war with ourselves and somehow stayed one country.
We strung a railroad across the entire thing.
We handed the world the lightbulb, the telephone, and the airplane in about thirty years flat.
Then a man named Willis Carrier invented air conditioning and made half the planet actually livable.
You are welcome, Texas. You are welcome, Dubai.
Twice the whole world caught fire, and twice we showed up and helped put it out.
We split the atom.
We put men on the moon in 1969.
Then we went back and hit golf balls up there, because why not.
We invented jazz, blues, rock and roll, and hip-hop, and the whole planet is still dancing to it.
We put a burger and fries on every corner of the earth.
We built rockets that fly themselves home and land standing straight up.
We flew a helicopter on Mars.
We launched a car into actual space and it is still out there cruising.
We also invented ranch dressing and somehow talked the entire world into putting it on pizza.
Priorities.
We even invented three of our own sports so we could win them.
Baseball, basketball, and football.
Real football, the kind with hands, because we named it and we are not taking corrections.
The rest of the planet can keep soccer, which is fine, we are hosting it in our backyard this summer anyway.
And yes, Canadian football exists, wider field, extra man, one fewer down, and we try very hard not to think about it.
Frankly it was generous of us to invent our own games.
If we put all that energy into soccer, nobody else would ever lift that trophy again.
We would win it so often they would just rename it the America’s Cup and hand us the keys.
You are welcome for the suspense.
And in 2026 we threw a birthday so big a German tourist live-tweeted our gas stations to 750,000 people.
Not every chapter was clean.
We argued, we stumbled, we fixed what we broke, and we kept building.
That is the whole trick.
Two hundred and fifty years in, and we are still the loudest, brightest, most improbable experiment on the map.
Not bad for a country that started as a strongly worded letter to a king.
Happy birthday, America.
