This is a cartoon for kids. Huge plot holes for calling them dumb when in the last Season of Episode 1 teletran 1 warns them of the Constructions intruding on their base & they quickly understood that. Then in this episode they fly but now can't at the end.

I mean it seems very easy to go on Cybertron in this show... Maybe the bots that were still there decided to join Optimus, and the same goes for the cons.
I've always assumed they were all staying on Cybertron and decided to join everyone on earth, Optimus did say in an episode in season one that there were still friends in Cybertron
Dinobot Island is still one of the best stories ever seen because we had so much fun learning about the dinosaurs. Also we learned so many life lessons from watching the Transformers Generation one .
I had a similar experience in the early 90s watching Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the first Jurassic Park film. At perfect timing, my 2nd grade science teacher had us learn about dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures which got 8 year old me excited.
It’s a shame Dinobot Island wasn’t used or expanded upon in any other TF series. Closest one was Animated, but that’s about it. Kinda wish they’d bring back the island in some way. Maybe include more dinoformers other than the just Grimlock and the gang.
They have expanded the Dinobot ranks if you count other continuities additions, including Slash, Strafe, Scorn, Skar, Grimstone, Grimmaster, & Paddles. Also, apparently, Baby Dinobots from the Bay movies.
yeah. Here he needs autobots to save him from cassetes and in third season he is bravily going with Rodimus and Blitzwing to ambush on Shartikons. For me most badass Spike was in Rebirth. He created Fortress Maximus and was his head.
“Whoa we found living and breathing dinosaurs on an island!” “Nice, oh no, the Dinobots, are wrecking everything around them!” “Oh I have an idea, let’s put the Dinobots, who are known for causing mayhem, on an island full of the LAST ENDANGERED DINOSAURS!”
The animation in this episode is definitely a step up from previous episodes. More fluid and dynamic animation, and the art itself more dynamic. Seems like the colors are all a bit dulled, though, but it’s nice to have an upgrade.
You'd think the Dinobots would be a little more ticked off at the fact that the autobots are basically kicking them out. And Swoop would be at least a little homesick. But hay. They must be going under "Dinosaurs cool, me likey". Despite the fact that there alternate modes are Dinosaurs. But I can totally agree with them. If I was a dinobot. I too would wanna see real Dinosaurs too.
like they want to help the autobots but they are too big and powerful and training them as already shown is painful whenever it takes place but I do believe in at least a logical context it would have been a good idea to have at least wheeljack on the island as well helping them and improving their weaponry at from time to time
love G1 Bee. hes such a well thought out character. my dad had one of those fancy models with all the bits and pieces standing on his work desk where i had the Transformers Prime Bee standing on mine.
Funny story: I definitely think this was inspired by Marvel's The Savage Land: isolated island with dinosaurs and achres of wilderness on it? Heck in the Marvel Transformers comic, the dinobots got their alt modes FROM the Savage Land, and here they are in the cartoon stomping about dinosaur island. Feels like more than a coincidence.
Every Dinobot episode was epic but the Dinobot Island two parter for me was the best one, aside from introducing us to tons of new Autobots and a few new Decepticons too, we got to spend more time with the Dinobots with every individual member getting a good amount of decent screen time especially Grimlock who really came into his own as a leader and they were fleshed out more as a team. It was cool to see the Dinobots act as their own unit instead of always being used as only backup to stop disasters or even up the sides during battles against the Decepticons. Even though they display aggressive animalistic traits in personalities from time to time, in their hearts, the Dinobots are very much Autobots, whether they'll want to admit it or not.
This is season 2's opener, there's about twelve episodes that could be considered season 1 eps in that they feature 1985 characters and then have a cameo or two of season 2's cast like Powerglide appearing from nowhere in Prime Problem just to resolve the episode.
this was part of the afternoon cartoon block on my local TV station, hosted by the great Major Astro, "live" from his space shuttle in orbit where he would comandeer the local airwaives to bring the latest and greatest in cartoons. Great times. Would be cool to see locally produced cartoon blocks again instead of the dry mass produced and packaged content from national providers shipped to their affiliates
Major Astro was legend who can't be replaced. I remember watching Astro Boy on the Major Astro afternoon block. Good times. Good memories. Thanks eh :)

9:27 Soundwave surely is Megatron's right hand man. Bro has proven his allegience to Megatron, head and shoulders above all the other "disappointing" Decepticons.🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌
The Transformers season two: Dino Bot Island Parts one and two are best stories of all time. In second place are War Dawn, Bot , The Girl who loved Power Glide because he is smart, friendly, patient.
I don’t think he did because he was getting them to move. They were probably just covered by the explosion. This Megatron is way more polite than other incarnations have portrayed him to be. For example instead of blowing up the Lincoln statue like Bayformers, he picks him up and sets him on the floor rather gently
It looks to me like Sludge was trying to leave after Grimlock told him and Slag to go away as he didn't want to damage anything or cause any trouble but him stepping on Slag's tail by accident angered Slag causing a big mess......
Why did they not ever just upgrade the Dinobot team to be smarter? And no, I'm not talkin' about how they had Grimlock actin' like Jeffery from Fresh Prince lol. Grimlock in robot form is SUPER iconic with the blue visor!
You know, most of the problems with the dinobots could be solved if they just did these tests outdoors. It's like practicing football in the living room and getting mad when they knock over a few lamps. edit: they wouldn't need to take them all the way to the island, is what I'm saying
[10:40] "room to move, room to FIGHT, room to S T U M B L E" (also "SWOOP! Do flying stuff! SLAG! Do fire stuff! SNARL! Do tail stuff! Getting better, but still not more better enough."[16:19])

Very gentle 👍

holy Jesus, Teletraan 1 needs an award of some sort for being destroyed around like every other episode.
Yeah, Spike's concern for Teletraan rings a little hollow, since it's blown up every week.
😂
Trypticon destroyed it once and for all

And grabbing an Autobot's blaster and fighting back against the Decepticons when the other Autobots don't. (Divide and Conquer, and The Ultimate Doom)
Why are the Dinobots so freaking cool. I love them, and so do my kids. Guess we all have a nostalgia for dinosaurs in general.
Yes!
Dinosaurs are cool.
Robots are cool.
Robot Dinosaurs, logically, are extra super cool.
There robot alien dinosaurs I don’t think it’s physically possible to get cooler than that
i wonder what other dinosaurs that would make good dinobots?
@@Xalerdane Shockwave: “I find your statement to be… logical”
It always amazes me how many Star Wars sound effects were used in the G1 cartoon
ikr?! Also I love your name ✨👌
i like that these new characters like Powerglide and Blaster just kinda showed up out of nowhere and nobody's questioning it
My theory is some Autobots were in stasis lock pods on the Ark before the ship crash landed on Earth
I mean it seems very easy to go on Cybertron in this show... Maybe the bots that were still there decided to join Optimus, and the same goes for the cons.
@Travelerfrom2024 Well the Decepticons has a Space Bridge
I've always assumed they were all staying on Cybertron and decided to join everyone on earth, Optimus did say in an episode in season one that there were still friends in Cybertron
I mean Cybertron was warped within the vicinity of Earth for a period, it wouldn’t be to hard to believe some bots hopped over in that time

Swoop: Stay out of trouble Spike.

Spike:HEEELLLPPPP
😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Yes, he's annoying AF.
At this point I don’t think Star Scream’s trying to take over the Decepticons because of an ego
He’s just honestly more qualified
Exactly
Megatron was a moron in many episodes of the second season
I love how they gave only bumblebee a jet pack while everyone else is still casually flying in the air without one lol
They took their jet packs off the wall.
The others probably have turbines to fly on their boran compressors
I can’t believe spike became so badass in season 3. I forgot how helpless he was in the first 2 seasons.
yeah. Here he needs autobots to save him from cassetes and in third season he is bravily going with Rodimus and Blitzwing to ambush on Shartikons. For me most badass Spike was in Rebirth. He created Fortress Maximus and was his head.
There is a difference between a teenager and an adult. It is likely that adult Spike has some training with the EDC.
@@miyako1909 or even with autobots. He's basically war veteran and honored autobot
@@miyako1909 spike must have studied autobot technology or pit in some extra hours at college because he created fortress maximus
He was in fact kickass in several season 2 eps, including his ludicrously implausible stunts in "The Insecticon Syndrome".
The Dinobots gave Optimus so many headaches lol
Right, they are always causing mischief.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🙌

"Lightning, Megatron! A bad omen!"-
megatron has had it with starscream's concerns
And that's why Megatron's so thick-headed to heed the advice of others.
and starscream should have used this event to his advantage and take control with reason
It's funny how even though starscream has wishful thinking, his situational awareness is the best

The Dinobots are left alone with each other and they can do whatever they want on that island without fear of hurting anyone. Sounds like a win
love G1 Bee. hes such a well thought out character. my dad had one of those fancy models with all the bits and pieces standing on his work desk where i had the Transformers Prime Bee standing on mine.
Spike in this episode is like Miko throughout all 3 seasons of Transformers Prime. Always getting into trouble-
No way, Miko went out of her way to find the trouble, Spike just got into a series of accidents in unfamiliar territory.
It is part to Sparkplug's poor judgment. Spike should have been in school instead of doing adult wort at 14.
At least Spike actually went into a lot of accidents instead of finding ways to get in trouble on purpose
No, Miko IS the trouble. She manifests it.
Probably Swoop is the only Dinobot with emotion express 😅 13:50

when venturing into unknown territory, be mindful of the local wild life
Wonder if this episode inspired the writers of Jurassic Park? 🤔
Jurassic Bark
Yes I think so
The Transformers season two: Dino Bot Island Parts one and two are best stories of all time. In second place are War Dawn, Bot , The Girl who loved Power Glide because he is smart, friendly, patient.
On Dinobot Island, take only photographs, leave only footprints.
06:31 BEST picture of Trailblazer we've ever seen in animation.
Close second to Trailbreaker's transform animation in Ep 1.
only 2 dinobots I love......swoop....Cause he shows little more intelligence and can Fly duh....and Him Grimlock too famous to hate
Wow, Spike is such a damsel in distress in this episode.
I think Spike was kidnapped by the dinosaurs more then decepticons in one episode. lol
First thing out of the time vortex? Thundar the Barbarian riding a wooly mammoth! Ariel, Ubra, ride!
And in 1990, Michael Crichton published "Jurassic Park." Coincidence?
I’ll never forget this episode in a hurry

Optimus was very kind to recognize the dinobots needs and very perceptive of Bumblebee to suggest the island.
