A moment of perspective.

From a CNN article on Orson Welles and his last role as the Transformer "Unicron":

Back in 1986, though, [the concept of celebrity cartoon voices] wasn't the payday it is now. "Transformers: The Movie" yielded less than $6 million at the box office. The new live-action "Transformers," which opens in theaters July 3, hopes to reap that in a matter of hours.

Wrap a few grey matter cells around that one, and then go get a beverage.

I didn't see the Transformers film until much later, so when the new series of cartoons started I had no idea what the heck was going on.

On the other hand, the later series did give us an episode where Grimlock saves the universe by being incredibly stupid. That was pretty awesome.

I've added you to my friends list because your userpic rules so friggin' hard.

Mr. GFB rules as much as his userpic, so you're in good company.
