Shut up. I'm me a blockbuster.

First off, I want to thank everyone who made the first three SRM Transformers movies a success. They did really well here on Newgrounds, and I've gotta thank everyone who voted 5, got them their awards and front page honors.
Now. I said I wouldn't, I said I couldn't, I said I shouldn't, but I finally made SRM Transformers 4. The script was wicked long, so I'm splitting it up into 2 flashes. The next part should come out before Spring, if I get to work.
So here we go. 22 frames per second and 6 minutes long, so you might wanna get some popcorn. Also, 10 megs might take a bit to load, but I didn't want to sacrifice sound quality. Endless issues plagued this in it's production, ranging from sounds going out of sync to Blue Screen of Death errors. Everything that could go wrong, did go wrong, but it somehow made it this far. This part is completed, and up for you fine folks here at Newgrounds.
So here you go guys, my 40th flash animation (not counting voice acting projects or Hitler's Strawberries) and possibly my best. Part 1 of the 4th and final episode of the SRM Transformers.
PS: Check for the easter egg at the end, and enjoy the kickass menu!

Wow, what an exciting episode of plot holes, merchandise pushing and over the top sound effects, compared to the music. A shame that your animation is too advanced for G1 Transformers, but I still keep coming back for more - this stuff is awesome and it really gives me something to enjoy, while in the mood for some proper nostalgia.
The way that you bring in new characters all the time and they keep coming out with new moves that I'd almost forgotten about, much like Jazz getting torn in two by Melatron (I noticed that you spelled his name "Megatron" in one of the bios :P) is brilliant. Keep that old skool humour coming!
With how you've added blurbs and bios about the characters, you've made one crucial error - the buttons for next and previous are the wrong way around for convention. If you think of it like turning the pages of a book, you'll have previous to the left and next to the right. I moved straight to the menu key,l which confused me, to be honest.

Huh. I never noticed that the menu buttons were the wrong way around before. I don't think I did that in my other cartoons with menus. Welp. I did notice the Melatron/Megatron misspelling, but whatever.
I was really happy to work in a few references to Michael Bay's Transformers with this cartoon, just to keep things current. Conecrusher's design and Jazz's death are both awkwardly translated from the movie for whatever effect.
SRM Transformers 4 Part 2 didn't get made until like 6 months after this one, just because I was so worn out by this cartoon. It was a huge undertaking and the two parts were originally written as one 15 minute epic. It turns out a lot of that is because I wrote way too much dialogue, but it worked as an ending to the SRM Transformers cartoons. Once you see SRM Transformers Part 2 you'll realize I'd pretty much hit the peak of the series and wouldn't go further. I did start a 5th cartoon, but I scrapped it due to low quality, comparatively.
