The end of 2010 also brings us something to look forward to in the coming year, with the recent release of the Transformers: Dark of the Moon teaser trailer. Your friendly neighborhood hoodlums examine the TF3 Teaser in classic Twincast fashion, with punches and counterpunches, and speculate on what the third installment of the film franchise is bringing to the table.

If the live-action movies aren't your thing, have no fear! 2010 isn't over yet, and neither is our discussion of Transformers: Prime. In our first episode since the conclusion of the five-part miniseries premiere, the Twincast gang weighs in with a high flying, fiery analysis of the latest in Transformers animation.

So, the end of the year is all about looking back, right? Well, why stop with 2010? In our 'Ask the Twincast' segment, the gang rolls the clock all the way back to 1993!

Finally, we're waxing nostalgic, looking back at some of the most notable events of the past year:

I really enjoyed that podcast! Helped keep me awake on this overnight shift.
So many great Transformers came out this year. My shelves are overflowing. It's time to get another bookcase. I can't wait to see what 2011 is going to bring. This will be my first Botcon, and I am definitely going to grab a beer or six with the podcast crew in Cali.

Passing out in elevators?

Passing out in hallways?

Falling over planters?

Man...I gotta go to BotCon with the Seibertron crew! That's right up my alley.

Great Twincast, guys.

Great job guys (and lady). I have to agree with everyones thoughts on TF: Prime, excellent so far. I don't look at the Protector as harshly though. I don't know how else they could have done the head.

Btw, after watching Tron, I can confirm that the TF: DOTM trailer looks a LOT better in 3d on the big screen.

Ah. Thanks a bunch

EDIT: Wait, that's seriously from the original Lion cover of the theme? I guess I never really listened that close to that song. I feel like something of an ass for not recognizing that. Granted it is after midnight in my timezone.

No it's not the Lion theme. It's Stan Bush- Till all are one.

I'd put money on Fansproject's Warcry and Flameblast being G1 Growl and Fireshot (the names alone are enough to go by, let alone the new headsculpts/accessories).

But they'd make a half decent Battle Gaia if that's what floats your boat. You'd need to find a blue Onslaught, a beige Brawl and a green Vortex though.

Always love listening to you guys (and gals - Beth)!

And since you always entertain me, I thought I would return the favor. Check out my forum post under Live Action Films, it's called: My letter to 'Bay & Company'. I wrote it last week after finally seeing the unimpressive announcement/teaser trailer myself - and I think you will find it pretty funny! And I'm sssssoooooo happy to hear I'm not alone! So far though, most everyone can't get passed the fact that I used adjectives like True fans and Bonafide in the beginning!?! And then that started a new life of it's own and so I started another post which is under the Transformers General Discussion Forum titled: "You Might NOT be a True Transformers fan...if..." and that is catching on! (Think Jeff Foxworthy)! 8-}

So have some laughs, enjoy my video, add a few "if's" and have a great holiday season!

Oh, and I COMPLETELY agree with Beth - and wanted to say to whoever said that 'Bay & Company' wouldn't or couldn't put a lot of the robots in the teaser trailer cause they cost like a million bucks per second - well, they didn't have to. A shot of Optimus hooked up to his trailer (which by now, we all know he has) followed by the new and old Autobots chasing those 3 NASCARS down a street would have sufficed! No Transforming needed! And you'll see I got that shot on my own...and it didn't cost me a dime! That would have really "Teased"...

Well, take care and thanks...for being "True" fans! :grin:

Oh and here's the video link - if you don't feel like searching for my post:

Awesome podcast as always

.

Yeah I wa yelling at my computer when the AVGN called trypticon mecha Godzilla. Also there is really THREE deception logos in Convoy No Nazo. TJOmega aka plastic addict on YouTube did a good review on it, better explaining than the nerd's review, but I digress.

I totally agree with you guys (and gal) about Prime. Great first five episodes so far and can't wait for the rest, and what they'll do with cliffjumper.

Happy Holidays!

Personally I think he was being sarcastic when he said that, which in my opinion makes it alot funnier, but maybe thats just me. =L

I enjoyed listening to this episode, and as always, was fully entertained.

I'm going to the 2011 BotCon, so I'm really excited about meeting some of you there - Pyro, I sure hope you can make it! I literally wanted to cry last year when I saw the pictures of past events and heard some of the stories. I just couldn't get the finances together to go to the 2010 BotCon, but I've got all my ducks in a row for 2011! It sounds a little like the Sturgis for TF nerds! (For those who don't know, Sturgis is the annual motorcycle rally in South Dakota where all the bikers go to have fun.)

Also looking forward to watching Transformers Prime. I really liked what I saw in the mini-series and I have high hopes for the regular series.

Excellent.

Though, it may be better to hear of stories rather than become one.

Heh heh! Yeah, becoming part of the Twincast's year end wrap up as the one who passed out in the elevator might not be a proud moment! I'll be there to take the black-mail pictures!

Man, that was a great listen. You Twincasters always seem to be having so much fun, and really provide a great cross-section of the fandom in general. I look forward to hearing from you all again in 2011 (and if you ever find yourselves in need of a guest Twincaster, I'd always be down with ranting TFs with you)
Keep it up, these 'casts are fast becoming my favourite thing to listen to!
