Optimus' catchphrase: "Freedom is the right of all sentient beings" doesn't seem like it would be well supported in China does it?

Just sayin...

Why do you think he's there for? To free the oppressed. ;)

FYI, the people there, like people everywhere else, wish to live in freedom; it's just the ones in control who think otherwise.

Michael Bay has already run the Transformers Franchise so far into the ground I guess that is how they ended up in China! I am looking forward to a great movie with "Pacific Rim" by Guillermo Del Toro maybe if he directed TF5 there would finally be a decent live action TF movie! :sad:


We never got any racist stereotype TFs. The only ones who came close were the dreads. Big black SUVs with... dreads who can run fast and have nose piercings... but they were such a small part. See, you're making assumptions that just because the story takes place in China, there will be racist Transformers. Where are you getting this? A lot of ROTF took place in Egypt; where were racist Egyptian TFs? Basic Bay-hater's response...

....Are you serious...

Seriously, the Twns from Revenge of the Fallen we're blatant examples. How could you have missed them?

Ok, my little rant's over. Don't want Burn after me.
They call me “Tanker Chungus”!

Explain to me how they're racist stereotypes. I've heard all the BS before. It doesn't work.

The only racism we saw concerning the Twins was viewers applying a non-race specific lifestyle to a specific race. The Twins were fine, the viewers were at fault.

Back on topic from here on out.

So the twins are supposed to be suburban white kids acting like the in the hood black kids or the majority of Xbox Live users?

I don't know how to respond.

Having your little say and then trying to get back on topic does not excuse the fact that you've contributed to driving the thread off-topic in the first place.

Seriously people! You're all bringing up topics that have been discussed in other threads, and can be easily discussed again in those other threads.

No more chances. Keep it on topic or I'll be splitting posts off and moving them to the junk forum.

That'd be great, but he'd probably be too expensive. They've probably already spent a lot getting Mark Wahlberg to star in TF4. They'll have to save some cash for the 3D rendered TF's...and the C4 and dynamite. :grin:

For the love of Primus, If I had known this thread was going to be this entertaining and so rife with ignorance I would have popped some popcorn before the show started. I need to spend more time on here because this is certainly more entertaining than anything on cable tv. :lol: 8-}
