Transforming Transformers - The Symbolism of Transformers #1

The Symbolism of Transformers Episode 1 - Transforming Transformers
Welcome to the Symbolism of Transformers, a series where we go through the symbolic and typological patterns reflected in the Transformers franchise, particularly through an Orthodox Christian lens. In this episode, we lay down the framework of this series by answering questions like "what is symbolism?" "Why does symbolism happen?" and "how does symbolism happen in fiction and in real life?" Lastly, we talking about the core theme of Transformers, that being "change."

I love the over analysis and how deep this goes, can't wait for the rest of the series

[@CommanderRadix]

Thank you so much for your kind words!

[@bradp366]

Im very excited for this series. Its obvious if you look a bit below the surface that this franchise is deeper that it initially appears. The name Logos Prime was the thing that really made me start to see it.

[@Travelerfrom2024]

It's more than meet the eye

[@scrungowungo]

Great concept for a video series

[@TFEES]

The first piece of transformers media, the marvel comics, mentions the heavens. In its first issue.

This is more interesting than my minor historical courses.

Just finished Transformers #4 of the new run, I see an Optimus with Megatron arm and cannon attached to him figure in the near future

[@AngelTorres-oi6pj]

Already can't wait for the next episode. Guess that just as in the transformers there's more to you than meets the eye

[@CommanderRadix]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@edsbread1422]

This is going to be quite epic

[@warmachine4791]

This was a fantastic video man as always great work I look forward to the rest.....any chance for a Primal Prime video lol?

[@CommanderRadix]

Thank you so much, I really appreciate it, especially for such an experimental video as this. There is a chance for a Primal Prime video.

Fabulous. I love this sort of stuff. I even attempted to go into interfaith miniseries but in the end i think I should have went to school for comparitive religion. Ah oh well.
I wrote an entire creation story for the Transformers. Primus. Unicron. Physics. Im on break right now. Lol. Let me know if you want to check it out. Have a great day, good luck with this.
