Not that I care AT ALL for the character, but really, It just NOW accured to me, that he WASN'T in the movie, and unlike mikaela, he wasn't even mentioned, and seeing as how he knows the whole alien secret and the whole shibang, shouldn't he have at least been in one scene, just for the sake of, well, I guess, continuity? or did I just miss something major that flew right over my head? 8-} Leo, the twins, anyone else?

The same thing with what happened to Maggie and Glen. They all moved on with their lives.

:lol:
sorry, just the way you phrased that made me laugh. seriously though, I thought the way they clipped him, maggie and glen and the twins was all just terrible. I would mention Barricade, but they brought him back in the very least....

I think Soundwave dispatched Laserbeak to kill him. He was probably still scooping in alien stuff and Soundwave felt that he had become too curious and... BOOM! A little technical glitch that caused his home to explode. And the only thing left would be a huge boombox, which just "disappears"...

Or maybe he was getting too close to NASA's secret files and...

Hey, I wonder if they'll make a Xantium toy like they did with the Ark?

He quit school after ROTF, only in college for two days (did you see him sitting back to class at the end of ROTF? No, only Sam did). He now works at Simmons Deli along with Simmons mom. The second job is taking care of Simmons secret meat locker.

Maggie? Oh, I missed her. She was an better actress than other girls in TF. IIRC from somewhere, she kept her job at NSA and Glen were hired by NSA as well. No show? Of course, ROTF is about CIA and NEST and DOTM is only NEST. Nothing to do with NSA.

He was awful. Thank God he's gone. The only thing I enjoyed about him is the way Simmons kept leaving him out of his "One man..." speech. :lol:

Originally, I thought that he and Mikaela ran away together in Skids and Mudflap.... but since learning what actually happened to the twins, I guess the two just ran off on their own.

Obviously, I don't really think that's what happened, but it's possible! ;)

Or maybe they're all part of another branch of N.E.S.T? I Mean, Jolt, Arcee, Skids, and mudflap are the robots on the squad, while leo and mikaela are the human subordinates. I smell epic fan fiction here! Anybody mind if I jump on it? Or you guys gonna do it? Either way, It just fits together rather nicely IMO. Credit were credit's due!

Go for it man! I do think, however, that Skids and Mudflap got killed off screen in DOTM, if the book and comic are to be taken as canon. However, Leo, Mikaela and Arcee are all perfectly alive AFAIK!

The obvious answer is he wasn't used.

The correct answer is Bay had intentions of using him in early drafts of the script. Then as those moved along, they moved him out of the picture. Probably around the same time they axed Megan/Mikeala.

They Axed Megan because of her big mouth, not because she didn't belong on screen. Hence the fan-fictional re-write, wich is in fan fiction BTW! But all that aside, was there any Logical reason they left him out without so much as a mention? I mean, is there something in the comics? Books maybe? he die? I just want to know is all. lets keep this on track though. Mods don't like it when you go off track. Not saying YOU did, but with the whole "Fan Fiction" Thing, I kinda did...

The prequel graphic novels for DOTM didn't mention Glenn, Maggie, or Leo at all. The prequel Graphic Novels for DOTM did mention what happened to Arcee, Elita One, Chromia, and Jolt though...

Ironhide got sick of Leo snooping around the base to film for his website, so Ironhide "Showed him his cannons"

I hope he died. Let's all pretend he never got away from Devastator.

I have no clue what a spoiler tag is but ok. Caution SPOILER which is located in the two prequel graphic novels for DOTM.

Chromia and Elita One were ambushed by Shockwave in a forest and died.
Arcee got killed by Soundwave...i think.
Jolt gets killed defending the NEST base.
Spoiler Over.

I could have gotten some stuff wrong. But got to TF Wiki and type in Transformers Dark of the Moon Rising Storm and read through the four issue descriptions. Forgot some of the details already.

That is a spoiler tag. When you are typing your message in the text box, highlight the words you want covered up. Then hit the spoiler button along the top of the text box.

It's good to use when sharing new information which not all want to know. It's something that some jack's don't know how to use.
