My sincere heartfelt thanks to you all, I’m so proud of this scene and the work all my fellow colleagues put into this amazing series. Thank You 💫 #starscream #transformersarmada

It was always those final words that Galvatron remembers that stuck with me the most. "I tried to gain favor from you, but nothing was ever good enough. No matter how many battles I fought, you always found fault! Then I saw how Optimus treated his men, and I realized he was a leader of integrity. Unlike you..." Those words stuck with me for a long time, and I found myself thinking about them the other day as I was putting on my uniform for the army. A leader of integrity who recognizes those under his command. That's something I aspire to be now.

He's like a slightly more useful Krillin.

But I look at the character developement and depth. Sure, I really like Prime Starscream, but he lacked depth. Character development was a cycle of him bouncing from the Decepticons and back and trying to take over Megatron. A lot of character events, but hardly any character change. This Starscream, however, did look like the stereotypical Starscream in the beginning, but has had struggles of morals, self-esteem, and acceptance. Something that can make a viewer sympathize with him and watch the character grow and change. What pisses me off about the other Starscream's is the lack of utter character development. Often, he just becomes mostly comedy relief (animated) or any meager development that has been created is just whisked away (I mean, did you see the way he just dies in the original movie??!). Though Starscream might be the embodiment of a stereotype, I feel like it gave him a depth that other Starscream's lack. To me, this Starscream is the transformer's version of Zuko. (Sorry for the rant, but I'm passionate.)

@guillemmoreno5522

7 жыл бұрын

Nicole Zhang Prime's Starscream may have lacked other things, but depth is absolutely not one of them. The problem is you're mistaking shallowness for faithfulness to the original character. Prime's Starscream is a conniver, a coward and a traitor, like the original Starscream is supposed to be. He starts the show as the leader, intends to terminate Megatron to keep his post, tries to control dark energon for himself, is eventually punished and forced into exile, attempts to force his way in again and manages to make a deal with them, and in the end he actually becomes loyal to Megatron after being saved from Dreadwing. In addition, he offers comical moments alongside Knockout. This Starscream has a better personality, a better design and a better voice than Armada's who, despite how different he is in his own lore, is still a completely predictable anime stereotype. That alone doesn't make a character deep. And Zuko's actually a more refined and well driven case of this stereotype. He has a greater backstory, and overall the character is just more interesting.

I just realized one extra tragic part about Starscream's sacrifice: he'd never know if his sacrifice actually meant something. He gambled his own life to convince Galvatron that Unicron was a threat, without even knowing if it would work. For all intents and purposes, Galvatron could have stubbornly ignored what happened and continued to wage the war, and the Autobots likely would have failed to stop Unicron from fully reviving.

I just realized something after watching this again, Galvatron doesn't seem like he really wants to kill Starscream. He keeps offering him chances to just back off. For as much as he disses Starscream, Galvatron seems to actually care about him quite a bit. Him being harder on him than on the other Decepticons I think is his way of showing that he respects him.

Out of all the other Star-screams of the past that were cowards and manipulators but this one was an honorable, brave and loyal soldier who lived a soldier and died a hero. Not only that, he shouted his words towards Unicron as a way showing his defiance against tyrants and shows the Autobots and Decepticons that they must work together to topple this tyrant and bravely stared at the face of death himself. We miss you Armada Star-scream, you deserve followers and a statue with your strong sword to be remembered forever.

One little detail I've never seen anyone mention in this fight is that, Megatron/Galvatron is using the Star Saber, a mythical weapon said to cut through almost anything... And Starscream fought a duel against this legendary, incredibly powerful weapon with his own wing sword. Think that one over.

The real reason why he loses that development? In Japan where the Unicron Trilogy shows originated, each show was completely separate, but in the localization and dubbing process, Hasbro decided to make it so that Energon was a sequel to Armada, and Cybertron to Energon. Therefore Energon's version to Starscream is not ACTUALLY supposed to be Armada Starscream, but the dub writing forces it to be so

@chrisjoseph4224

7 жыл бұрын

BlueScarabGuy Energon seems like a pretty clear continuation because of certain details, but it makes sense with Cybertron.

Armada Starscream will always be the best version. He was an hounerable warrior, a soldier with heart. He only wanted to please his commander, and be a good warrior. You can tell when they plotted to destroy him, and left him to be destroyed how hurt he was. To be betrayed by those he swore allegiance to, man... But the part i liked most, was after this, when Cyclonus mocked his sacrifice, the anger Galvatron showed towards Cyclonus. Galvatron realised just what Starscream did, and honoured his sacrifice, even leaving his sword where it stood in tribute. Armada was an amazing show, full of some really great character development.

How he went from being a mere soldier, to a key figure that prompted the Autobots and Decepticons to join forces against the greatest threat to the universe. How he had formed bonds with a few characters, even with the humans. He lived his life as a warrior, and died a hero. (At least until Energon, but we don't talk about Energon here.)

I only watched Armada, Energon and Cybertron and because I watched Armada first, I really liked Starscream's character development and loved it even more in Cybertron. Energon's Starscream made me so confused though, at that time I didn't know he was always a jackass in almost every incarnation.

Some of energon starscream’s personality can be explained as him being reborn incomplete by alpha Q

I was 8 years old when I watched this scene.. 18 years later, tears still come out of my eyes. Armada was my first introduction to The Transformers franchise, and therefore will forever be in my childhood heart.

My favourite part of this episode was that during Unicrons attack, Starscream ejected Swindle. Considering how much Starscream cares about his Minicon, it’s sweet to see that in his final moments his last thought is to make sure one of his friends didn’t have to go down with him…

It's such a mesmerizing scene. His cry of "You're all mine Unicron!", to his cries of pain as he's being turned to ash. The struggle he has at pulling the sword from his chest, and the realization of what he must do. I'm sad we don't get more Anti-Hero Starscream, but in a way, it helps us see how amazing this Starscream is.

Transformers Armada is the only one series Starscream become good.

Starscream was never a coward in Armada, he was a brave, valiant & honorable soldier who was respected amongst most. It's why Optimus, Megatron & the kids felt sadness when he died. And his death was catalytic in the *RARE* truce of the Autobots & Decepticons to bring down a common enemy.

@mgh7634

The Starscream of Armada was anything but a coward. This version of him was a soldier that desired for nothing but to be a good soldier and was spat on, betrayed, and punished for his loyalty. Mocked for his integrity. When he does betray, its completely justifiable and even honorable as he saves lives. It's why when he finally dies, it's not seen as the death of a coward and a traitor, but of a hero and warrior. Humans and Cybertronians alike grieved his death because he was nobler than he ever had to be, kinder than he should have been, and better than what Galvatron deserved. And Galvatron knew it. A Decepticon with an Autobot's honor.

Seeing Starscream disintegrate into nothing but a crater on the surface was the saddest act of bravery I saw as a kid.

The end of the Armada series was sick, with a very strong story. Minicons causing the war so Unicron could feed the hate of the Autobots and Decepticons, then the hint of fate with High Wire. As a child, this moment made me fall in love with Transformers and have been obssessed with all things Cybertron ever since.

I think the saddest part of this death scene is that the last thing Starscream does is try with all his spark to destroy Unicron and his attack never even hit Unicron.

In the whole armada serie, the only thing Starscream ever wanted was to be acknowledge by Megatron and gained his respect. But when Galvatron said to him that he was to weak to ever gain his respect, I think Starscream got tired of living, and even if he knew that he could never destroy Unicron with one attack, he just tried to serve his leader one last time by sacrificing himself.

Starscream even though you were a Decepticon, and your traits of being a, coward, suck up, liar, and a maniac, no offense, but your rebellious side made you a true Autobot, when Thrust planned to use you as a diversion to get the Requiem Blaster you saw the Truth that Megatron uses his Decepticons as expendable minions but those close to him live.

I never imagined that Mega/Galvatron would have such deep anguish in his voice for the likes of Starscream. For only just this moment, I feel that Galvatron did feel a great deal of regret after Starscream's death.

SO MANY FEELS THIS EPISODE!!! Starscream was one of the best characters in both Armada and Cybertron

When Galvatron thought about what Starscream said to him. It made it a lot sadder for me. Part of the reason why this is personally my favorite incarnation of Starscream.

Starscream in this series was the original Prince Zuko, albeit without a happy end. Rather than having the typical boss/servant relationship, his dynamic with Megatron/Galvatron is that of a son trying to earn the approval of his abusive father figure. He nearly joins the heroes, but his selfish desires win out and he rejoins the villains. But in the end, Starscream calls out his leader for his failures and does the right thing. Ironically, in death, Starscream finally earned Galvatron's respect.

Starscream's always been my favorite in any continuity (well, except for ROTF and DOTM, in which they fucked him up badly and his death was IMO the worst death you could give to any character). Unicron Trilogy Starscream is my favorite out of all of them. Michael Dobson was a tremendous voice for him and he was a badass in combat.

I think this applies to this Starscream “ He lived a warrior and died a hero. Let his spark join the matrix. The greatest of Cybertron.”

...Despite everything, Galvatron continued to refer to Starscream as a soldier, no matter what came with it, he was still a soldier to him. His soldier, constantly giving him chances and refusing to cut him down with conviction. Aside from constantly calling him a fool, coward or weak, he was still spared and at some extent even a father of a foolish son.

Starscream was a brave soldier until the end.

I loved Starscream so much, standing against a litteral Transformers God without any fear of him neither his imminent death. The greatest Starscream and Transformer i've ever seen in my life. I cried at this scene when i was a kid.. And Megatron's character was great too in Armada, he was powerful and crual, Yet did really cared so much about Starscream in the show, this made me feel bad for him. They seemed being old wars-comrades and friends but in conflict each other for a long time.. Armada was very tragic.

This Starscream died fighting not for the Autobots, not for the Decepticons, but for ALL of Cybertron. This is why Armada Starscream is the superior Starscream.

Starscream shouting as he fires the Proton Cannon and also when he gets hit by Unicron, that's deep. That's honestly some epic voice acting we all know it. It's sad but you know he's suffering in pain in that scream.

So beutiful. This perfectly captured Starscreams character. Noble, kind, determind, and selfess. This is the best Starscream.

Such is the fate of those who followed the ways of power, fearfulness, and destruction. Once one realizes the truth, about how much blood was shed with one’s own hands, and how there were always better ways put in place, isn’t the universe at least righteous in giving the courage to admit when one did wrong? In this case, isn’t the memory of going out with honor comforting to someone whose whole life was misled?

This version of Starscream will forever have my respect. And it was the first time I cried... for a DECEPTICON 🥺😭💔

I always found it interesting this version of Screamer is reformatted in blue, with a red face. Red being the colour most associated with the Autobots. Also remember that chronologically this is only the 2nd version of him, the first being the snivelling coward in G1.

This Starscream went out like a true Transformer warrior.

This Transformers universe is very much different from any other, with a very different Starscream. This Starscream was more badass then any other, and follow the path of the warrior. Even more of a twist this Starscream even becomes an Autobot for the time being. Crazy right?
