An excellent companion piece to what is, to my mind, an under-appreciated movie. Warning: there's a lot less giant monster battling, and a lot more quality character development, than you might have been expecting!
The two pilots/ one mind concept raises some interesting psychological, philosophical and theological questions. Would need several years of an animated series to just begin to explore. Of course the movie, not yest seen, will totally ignore.
@droctogonopus123 Transformers are NOT piloted by humans. Never have been. Kaiju are from the Godzilla franchise anyway.
Cool idea, but disappointing. It's a comic book about a monster movie, but it didn't have that much monster-fighting. More monster-fighting would have been nice.
looks like the new transformers
