Why I think the New Bionicle Story will be Terrible

LEGO BIONICLE

I want to revive this topic to say that I completely agree that the new Bionicle will not have a good story as we may have liked.

We just have to see how acceptable the new story is…when the books come out.

103

I wonder how many books there will be?

I have since left the camp of MT that says all the pessimistic things.

Hope has been restored and I now look forward once more to seeing what will happen in the future.

You mean like the plethora of G1 novels were? This is only going to be a problem if the author thinks “for kids” means “for toddling idiots”, a moronic but depressingly common conclusion some writers tend to come to.

As has been pointed out before, I just wanna say that not all kids books are bad. The previous BIONICLE books were for kids, and we seemed to enjoy them. (Other examples include Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, Narnia, The Hobbit)

Erhm, well, then.

I guess I say I can agree with you, MT. My thoughts kind of ran the same way from the get-go, though I never took the time to think all that out. Only argument I have is that I feel Lego did indeed make good characters, with the only exception being the later villains. Matoro, the Chronicler’s Company, among others were prime examples of great characters.

Lolz for this, though.

It seems to me MT hasn’t been reading Lego Magazines and really analyzing some of the back-story to the mythos of the new BIONICLE like I have.

And, like TTV said, that he seems to forget most of the major BIONICLE media came out in 2002-2003 (besides the comics, but even then, those came out in the summer, like the new BIONICLE books and comics). BIONICLE hit it big in 2002. It’s a bit unfair to compare something that just started to something that is complete.
