After watching the movie lastweek on the Hub can anybody explain why all the Dinobots appeared in the movie except for Snarl yet he's seen in a few episodes during season 3?

He was, for some unknown reason, left out of the movie's script.

Though, he isn't completely absent from the film, appearing in three shots ( the first two of which are in the same scene):

And while we're at it...can we name charecters that were not seen in the movie AT ALL and generally accepted they died? Such as...

Trailbreaker
Sideswipe
Gears
Inferno
Red Alert
Blue Streak
Hoist
Grapple

Who else am i forgetting? I have notes elsewhere on another computer, but would like to get a concensus...

I myself can think of a few Autobots and Decepticons that weren't seen in the movie.

Autobots

Powerglide
Seaspray
Omega Supreme
Cosmos

Decepticons

All of the Stunticons

That's all I can think of for now but I'm sure that I'm still missing some.

its easy to do if your not looking out for it. the scenes in which he's actually pictured feature fast panning camera angles so its easy to miss them

Right. The script specifically states only four Dinobots at a time, not five. And what's even more interesting is that in the trailer and the promotional video for Hasbro execs, Snarl is seen more than Swoop.

As for the source,

TFWiki.net wrote:The Dinobot Snarl is mysteriously absent from almost the entire movie, even though the Dinobots as a group are featured prominently. Copies of the script which have come into fans' hands repeatedly list the Dinobots, but never make mention of Snarl by name. In fact, at one point the script refers to "the four Dinobots". Despite this, Snarl does appear in three very brief shots—in which at least one other Dinobot (Swoop in one, Sludge in another) is entirely absent. Hmm.

I missed your post.............but as to your source, I dont see any evidence he[Snarl] was treated any differently in the script.
I'll admit its been a while since I read trew the script...........but from what I recall ,other then Grimlock, none of the other Dino's were mentioned by name very much, if at all.
