Actually, ignore my previous post on the topic of “wheelie”.. I think that it’ll be a great idea to have him in the sequel, at least Michael bay will make himself useful and do something right for a change..

If that happens here’s some possibilities;

1. Why not get Sam run him over with bumblebee.. Or
2. Get Mikaihla use a circular saw and cut him up into little pieces and feed him to ravage (even though ravage is a decepticon… maybe while being chased with Sam alongside here, she can throw bits and pieces of wheelie in front of ravage to throw him of track..??)
3. Get Optimus Prime to step on him by accident (or maybe it wasn’t an accident) and then go “my bad”
4. Then again, you can always feed him to the Dinobots, since grimlock never liked that little shit to begin with… Or
5. Or have Wheelie and mojo in an ultmate deathmatch as a fitting end to the sequel…??

well put..

sow hat is the reason for their change?? I am sure it wasn’t for “realism”’s sake.

here is one post you can viewhttp://www.transformersfans.com/the-movie/sightings/exclusive-chevy-vehicles-get-transformers-of-their-own

The equinox and (to a limited extent)the silverado have a “BOXY”
feel to it.

I am sure this is what W00kie meant that they would have made the compromise closer to G1 since these designs seem to contradict the reasons given that it doesnt work in real life.

The sad thing it is a chevy.

shawn, beastwars never took place on earth. this movie was to be the begining of it all. nobody ever talks about beastwars, that lasted 1 year. g1 lasted a hell of lot longer than that. Even the cartoon movie stayed within the realm of the original. The target audience of this movie should be between 25 n 40. The cartoon came out 20 years ago. Bay n Speilberg should have kept the original decepts., the three planes and soundwave.

That’s so true what you said scott.. Why change something that need not fixing..?? As you said, add to it, instead of fucking it up.. Yeah, i feel your pain… they built the hype so much and milked it for what its worth based on a brand name.. That’s all it was.. Oh and rumour has it that Arcee is not cybetronian coupe anymore, she’s a bike.. But these rumours are sketchy at best.. Can it get any worse..??

eh, I’m ok with it. In my mind, this movie is no more of a departure than Beast Wars. Different subjects and history, same kick ass universe.

but the movie has been builing up for over 5 months. is this the best they could come up with. this ranks as low as waterworld, batman 4,the hulk. Never try to reinvent the wheel. add to it,but don’t take it apart and put it back together

I AM HUGE FAN OF G1 AND ACTUALLY WANTED MY MONEY BACK AFTER WATCHING THIS CRAP MOVIE. THE FIRST HOUR AND A HALF WAS RIDICULOUS. THE BEGINNING WAS GREAT BUT THEN DROPPED OFF. WHY COULDN’T THEY USE THE NAME SPIKE INSTEAD OF SAM. THE CUBE IDEA WAS A JOKE, G1 DID IT BEST. ORIGANALY, THE AUTOBOTS LEFT CYBERTRON IN SEARCH OF ENERGY FOR THEIR PLANET, DECEPTICANS GOT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT, BIG WAR, AND THEY ALL CRASH LANDED ON EARTH IN SEARCH OF ENERGY TO TAKE BACK TO CYBERTRON. WHERE WERE ALL THE AUTOBOTS HIDING IF THEY HAD TO TRAVEL IN SOME COCOON. BY THE WAY I DIDN’T KNOW U COULD SEE THE BAT SIGNAL FROM OUTERSPACE. IF MEGATRON WAS ON ICE FOR SO MANY YEARS, WHAT DID PLAN DID HE SCAN IN ORDER FOR HIM TO TRANSFORM INTO A PLANE. THE CAMERA WORK WAS TO SHAKEY IN THE BEGINING WITH THE CAR CHASE OF BUBLBEE AND BARACADE. WHY DIDN’T THEY USE SOME OF THE ORIGINAL DECEPT. LIKE SOUNDWAVE AND THUNDERCRACKER. IF THAT WAS RUMBLE, I DIDN’T KNOW. WHEN THEY WERE BOMBING THE HELL OUT OF THAT INSECTICON LOOKINGTHING, WHERE WERE THE CRATERS AT FROM ALL OF THE BOMBS THAT WERE DROPED. COULDN’T U RENT A BACKHOE FOR TWO GRAND AND DIG ONE. THE MOTORCYCLE SCEENE WAS ALSO A JOKE, SLIDING ON HIS BACK FOR A HUNDRED FEET WITHOUT A SCRATCH. HOW IS IT THAT HUMANS R BETTER SHOTS THAN MACHINES. THAT DECEPT. IN THE BEGING WAS SO POWERFUL WITH HIS GUN. THREE TANKS FLEW IN THE AIR WHEN HE FIRED, DID HE FORGET TO USE THAT IN LAST FIGHT SCENE. IN THE END U DON’T KNOW WHICH DECEPTS. GOT AWAY. SUCKED TO SEE MEGATRON FOR ONLY FIVE MINUTES. WAY TO GO JAGOFF. U BUILT THIS MOVIE UP SO MUCH I ALMOST KNEW IT WAS GOING TO SUCK. DAMMIT I WAS RIGHT.

I don’t know that I’d call it ‘creepy’ but I am on a similar page as you. I loved the cartoons and the movie from ‘84. I also really liked the movie and look forward to wherever it takes the Transformers universe next.

I also liked Beast Wars and pretty much everything else that’s come out from different Transformers universes.

I understand the viewpoint of G1 purists yet I’m more of a see where it takes us kind of guy.
