There is nothing douchey about it. They used TWO lines to write the character out. They didn't harp on it, they didn't dwell on it, and not once did they use a swear about her. One TF called her mean after she tried to light his friend's eye on fire.

I don't care if you hated the film. Go ahead and hate it! But don't try saying that there are things there that aren't.

Agreed. It was a nessasary scene as it explained why Sam wasn't with Micheala. There was nothing disresepctfull about it. It lasted a mear 10 seconds in one scene, and 5 (if that) in another. NO harm, no foul.

it did strike me as weird that from 30 seconds before BB saved sam, to then be under armed guard about to be executed.....

also it stated 4 bots were captued, but the scene had BB, ratchet, Q, silverstreak and dino...

I think that could be part fo the film that had been cut, who knows maybe we find out in the DVD version what was ment to have happened....
I'm also looking for G1 Scattershot - complete with all parts for computron (i've got all the other techno bots, just not got their leader! If you have him and are looking to sell or swap for something please let me know - cheers

1. It's possible that he had stormed off directly into an ambush and was caught off guard, surrounded, so he had no choice but to do what they said.

2. Silverstreak? Don't you mean Sideswipe?

ah i'm useless with names, and silverstreak sounds so much better for a silver car, than sideswipe :P my point was there were still 5 bots under guard, and only 4 mentioned by the us troops :P

i just feel that the film could have done with about 10 seconds per bot showing them being captured, and the death of Q could have been put into that, rather than an execution, then BB almost being executed, before everything kicks off

Minor details in the script are usually the first thing to get overlooked in the final editing process of most movies, especially ones like this where they need alot going on at the same time. It's not the first time a mistake like this happened anyway, in ROTF they counted five Decepticons going down to where Megatron was, and then they counted six coming back up when one was killed to use as parts for Megatron. If they have sonars that can pick up something as small as Scalpel then they'd also be picking up every fish and crustacean within range too.

Well, i thought the surrender scene was pretty good. And for a second i actually thought they would kill Bumblebee. it went like this;

Q dies
Damn. well that sucks. I guess op saves them now, right?
BB is put on the block.
Pfft, no way.
it continues.
...your not gonna kill him are you?
Soundwave gets ready to pull the trigger.
HOLY @#$% THEY'RE GONNA KILL HIM!
Prime saves them.

Phew. i totally knew he would live. >:oP


In fact, i saw a few kids hugging their parents in relief. Wussies. :P
