Why didn't Starscream just...

Postby nbnguy98 » Sun Jul 15, 2007 4:03 pm

Okay... In the movie, when Rachet and Ironhide were covering for Sam and he's running. Starscream comes in and he's whipping both Rachet and Ironhide, totally dominating them. All he now has to do is get the Autospark from Sam. However, he doesn't, but transforms and flys away. That didn't make any sense what so ever.

I'm I missing anything here?

Starscream knocks Ironhide down, and is shooting Ratchet while Ratchet is shooting him, he flies off just as Ironhide gets back up.

nope, it's pretty much been confirmed that the plot sucks, just watch it for the action.. don't try to make sense of any of it. you won't have much luck.

Weapon: Sniper Rifle
Even if he did take out Ironhide and Ratchet, he still have a really pissed-off Megatron to deal with in order to take the Allspark for himself.

He takes damage while you see him from Sams angle. You can hear him wince and then he takes off. Just as Starscream would do. Hit - and run when the tables turn.

I might be wrong, but it almost seemed to me as if he didn't even notice Sam, and he was just atacking Ratchet and Ironhide.

Yeah, I think he was evading what ever hit him like right after that.

Or he saw something shiny, who knows?

You don't collect post-battle loot until the actual battle is over.

i was under the impression he took off to deal with the other f-22's although it seemed to take ahwile before he got there...in real time the battle was probably only about 10 minutes... but they needed to show you a little of everything going on, so it probably seemed like everyone else just stopped doing stuff while they werent on screen... i dont care though i loved the whole last battle

It was like he was dipping in and out the entire fight.

What didn't he do. He started the whole attack by shooting missles that injured bumblebee, he Shot down SOME f-22s, He shot down the chopper that sam had to give the all spark to, and he fired at ironhide and ratchet blocking their path temporarily.

he only showed up when the heroes made progress

I'm pretty sure he flew off to deal with the F-22s...

Either way, it was classic Starscream.
