Am I the only one who thinks Michael Bay has totally ruine arcee from being in the movie? Because I don't think shes going to be in TF 3 because of what happened in RoTF.

I hope so, her death didn't look certain so it's possible. I'm one of those people that liked their design and I'd like to see more of them.

She and all of her components are kinda dead.
I mean, you clearly see Chromia escape the huge explosion, but she's still dead.
Dead, dead, dead.

Plus, Bay hates them, so probably not.

Oh come now, death means nothing in these films...if they could bring back Bonecrusher they can bring back Arcee.

They must revert back to the original Bill Proctor design however verses Gizmo Duck. Or just make her a car, and state some giberish like the Bike-Bots were drones or something.

If she does come back, and they do keep Gizmo Duck, I think they'll try to re-introduce to combiner concept that was done for her and said siblings. Which if thats so, that thing needs a major rehaul...i mean, serious design work.

True, but Bay loves Bonecrusher.

We dont know if shes officially dead, I mean in G1, peope got shot all the time, blown to bits then in the nex scene they're fine. Arcee and Elita 1 just got shot, Im not sure if they're dead.

From TF Wiki:

"Arcee arrived with Ironhide to escort them through the warzone, but unfortunately, her purple and pink components were disabled in battle, and only the blue component remained operational when she was last seen."

Arcee and Elita-1 are definitely dead. Chromia, who knows? But, I doubt she'll be back. Guess we'll have to leave it to TF3 prequel comics to reveal her fate. It's not that I don't like Arcee; she's a great character, but you just have to face facts. I think Chromia should be back in TF3 but have you seen a blue motorcycle anywhere on set?

And while we're on this subject, soes anyone know what happened to the bikes after RotF was done filming? Where are they now?

Now i think the director should listen more to the fans of the film and not just jack up the movie if hes a fan of bonecrusher fine but stll there are still people out there that would like to see arcee just as much as kup or hot rod. The only reason they brung back bumblbee is because he was awsome in G1!!! It wouldn't bee the same without him. Which makes me think wouldn't they bring in hot rod in tf4 with sam's sun? Makes you think. But then again they wouldn't make a tf 4 if this one is terrible or michael bay just doesn't want to make another(story line wise)

Dunno that I'd call a two second shot of an FPI Buffalo that doesn't transform "bringing Bonecrusher back". There were a lot of duplicate alt-modes in ROTF, even Wiki lists that one as Buffalo MPV Decepticon.

I think I read someplace, maybe it was on his blog that he hated Arcee.

No, he was there fully transformed blowing things up like everyone else was in Egypt. If you didn't see him, well I cant say that I blame you for not picking him out of that mess of XCU and camera tilts sprinkled on with Smash Cuts galore. God, that just reminded me how much my eyes hurt when I saw this film at the Arclight. Ugh......

Anyways I could go the whole Blackout route.....being the bot is never addressed as Grindor save for the toys, which I don't recognize being Brawl was Devastator and so on and so forth. Or the mystery Constructicon that was ripped apart in the ocean but appearently was still functioning when they got out of the water.....or pretty much all of the constructicons really being they had dopplegangers.

Or Megatron himself....

Or Sam and the whole robot heaven thing....

So on and so forth.

Though now with all the new Autobots hitting chicago, alas I fear there's no room for fair Arcee. Unless she turns out to be one of those cars....hum wouldn't that be interesting?

Now if death doesn't matter how DOES bonecrusher comeback in ROTF if his head was sliced of his body by optimus? Also if they can bring back bonecrusher then explain why they couldn't rebuil Jazz? I know ratchet said they couldn't fix him but bonecrusher was clearly killed and yet returns?! Why couldn't they give jazz a new body like they did with bonecrusher as a cunstructicon? Explain that.

Going by the Decepticons ripping apart "ze little one" for the parts to fix megatron. I'd say they're willing to sacrifice the small and weak to revive the big and strong.

That still doesn't explain why!
