The Transformers (TV Series) Hoist Goes Hollywood (1985) User Reviews

It's like watching a parody while watching toy advertising

This episode is too good to be missed. I think even a non-transformer fan would love it for it's Hollywood satire and odd premonitions of the Transformer movie series of this decade. The Autobots go Hollywood, specifically Sunstreaker, Trucks (um, I mean Tracks), Powerglide, and Warpath. Moist (I mean Hoist) is the first but it's more in a technical adviser type of role. Hollywood actors and directors get lampooned and praised for their character traits in this episode. The director is at least shown to have some innovation and creativity in his bloodstream. The actor's are shown to be inept and self-entitled. The featured decepticons are Megatron, Starscream, Thrust, Soundwave, Ramjet, Astrotrain, Dirge in plane mode only, and Rumble.
