Ok, this almost guarantees that the level of humour for TF2 will probably be even below what it was for TF1.

I feel bad for all the little people actors out there, the only roles they can ever get in Hollywood call for "midget jokes" so that a bunch of ignorant, feeble-minded morons can laugh at people who look different than they do.

You're all wrong. They're starting the pretender series. Those are the "people" inside the "shells"

That was the first thing that came to my mind as well seeing the level of humor in the last film.

And by many of the comments posted so far, the spirit of ignorance and intolerance is alive and well at Seibertron.com.

These that I quoted being among the highest.
