The Intergalactic Highway

A while ago someone generated the anime laws of physics which was a comprehensive list of all the laws an anime series would obey to tell the crazy stories. I got to thinking about teh things within Beast Wars so here is what I have so far.

1. Waspinator will ALWAYS get hurt.
2. Whenever a Predacon is thrown against a cliff face, there will always conveniently be a rock teetering on the balance which is gauranteed to fall on said Predacons head.
3. Unlike the anime laws of physics, an enemy may not necessarily wait for you to complete your transformation before shooting. This becomes more true the further on you get in the series. The pilot episodes were all about showing off their shiny transformations .
4. The power of a Beast Wars character is directly proportional to the amount of damage sustained, see Code of Hero.
5. Hero music will always play when Silverbolt comes on to the scene.
6. Where does Rhinox store his guns?!!!
7. Optimus will always have a new body within the first few episodes of the season.
8. Characters who can fly will forget how to when it is plot convenient (Terrorsaur in Aftermath)
9. A CG Unicron head always looks cool even if it really isn't him.
10. Megatron is always right.

Well there's ten to get you started. I'm interested to see where this goes.

11. An energy shield around your ship is only a good defense so long as it does not interfere with the plot.

12. No one can fire a shot that is on target unless they save/wreck the day by doing so.

13. The radios will cease to function whenever it is least convenient.

This is rather entertaining!

14. Energy Shields do not just die, they shatter and splinter in a really cool effect like glass.

I don't want to fill this out myself so I'll limit my entries to one at a time from now on.

OooH! Let me help:

15: The characters will always say The Pit whenever Inferno is around.
16: Taratulas will always come back, whenever it is convienent.
17: Lower characters (Terrorsaur and Scorpinok) will always die in lava but Higher characters (Megatron) will survive.
18: Unless made correctly, Viral Minds are a No No.
19: Energon Discharge viruses are double edge swords.
20: The "Bad Girls" always fall in love with the Knights
21: Creating a Transformer with Starscream's spark is a No No.
22: Emesaries and Colebot agents will only last a few episodes.
23: BWINT is a good thing
24: Giving early humans a controling object that is also shiny is a No No
25: If sentinal rebels, call Rattrap.


That's all for now.
