You complain about people being condencending and disrespectfull and this is your response. Right dude.

Now what i find funny is by your response your basicly saying there is a continumity problem in the movies, constantly bring the movies down for it, yet you support it (continuity) by removing the twins intirely.

Guess its ok as long as its to your benifit.

Thanks. :D

What gets me is if you don't like the Twins why wouldn't you want to see them get killed? In the book didn't take the hits for Bumble Bee and the other Autobots? (Minus Ironhide of course) At least it would have been an honorable death

Too true. I can't remember which twin died first, but one of them jumped in the path of the blast to save Bumblebee. The other, enraged by this, tackles Sentinel, gets a few good whacks in before, during and after being shot with the barrel in his mouth. He crumbles and Sentinel brushes him away like nothing had happened and continues his rampage.

People hated the twins so much, they didn't want them to have a hero's redemption. They wanted them gone, no matter the cost. Their hatred is out of control.

If people had problems with the Twins before, painting them black and killing them off probably wouldn't come across as "redemption."

I've never minded the Twins. I guess I see them more as part of a much broader stereotype than some people do--they're just Two Stupid Guys to me. Bill and Ted, Beavis and Butthead, the nontalking Darryl brothers from the Newhart show (the third brother was relatively 'bright' by comparison), the two twits from the Dumb And Dumber movies, hell, even Cheech and Chong, if you want to go back that far...all examples of Two Stupid Guys and their relationships to one another or their specific racial types or even their species don't much matter. Two Stupid Guys should not be confused with Two Dumb Gals or The Idiot Couple or the more solitary, case-by-case Bimbo and Bozo stereotypes.

Stupidity doesn't necessarily negate courage either. Chalk me up as another person who would've enjoyed watching the Twins go out in a dissolve of glory fighting Sentinel Prime.

If they died heroically enough, that could "redeem" them in some people's eyes.

It would have in mine, especially if they got the audience to bond with them alittle first! they would be warriors by this point in time,and if it was anything like Q's death, then I would have cried, probably.

Theres been enough bitching about arcee, she didnt make the cut cause she wouldnt fit, and like jolt, wasnt supposed to be in the third film from the get go. it's not like she was in the movie and edited out for some dumb reason. barricade came back in 3 huh? Yeah, and jolt was just a chevy volt product placement, and we were told from the beginning that he didnt make the cut. the twins were bitched out of the film!

well i dont blame bay for the continuity flaw of the twins, if the reason the coninuity error is because the editors included scenes with the twins

that was just retarded and shoddy

First of, i loved the Wreckers. Probabaly my favorite characters in DOTM. I felt there accents were fitting, but am I the only one who thinks they were given the scotish accents so people in no way shape or form could claim they were stereotypical nascar fans?


Yeah, you probably are the only one who thinks that. :grin:

The Wreckers had accents that originated from the UK because the Wreckers first appeared in comics from the UK. It was a nod to their history.

Now I'm thinking of how awesome it would be if he took the Novel into consideration and had Bumblebee die (because of no Twins) to show that political correctness ruins everything.... that would make me laugh pretty hard

Why would you doubt it was that? They made a couple nods to the comics, including using the same name their ship had in the comics.

The honest truth? Bay usually doesn't go for fanwank, period. He most certainly wouldn't go for one that obscure.

I'm almost certain he went for rednecks, but at the last minute just decided to stop the potential backlash.

If I'm wrong, so be it, but I have a feeling this is the honest story.

Your not getting my point. Arcee was not planned to be in DOTM. Neither was Jolt. The point is the twins for all intents and purposes were in the 3rd movie. They were filmed in scenes, they were writen in the script and they served a purpose. Then they were removed because political correctness. So in this case i'd put it more on fans about continuity than Bay.

*psst* C'mere...

He does get it, has all along. I still think he was trolling. He got called on the carpet for it and is now trying to back pedal. Don't feed him. He wouldn't have laughed and treated your post as asinine if he was being sincere.

And you're right. They did screw up the continuity and flow of the film by cutting them out. Those scenes involving the hangar when they're supposed to be around are choppy and feel rushed like something was there but now it's not.

I have a feeling that it was either this or as an homage to Scotty from Star Trek (engineers who work on a starship and have Scottish accents).

their absence did not take anything away from the story, it didnt leave a gap in the story

loads of things are planned in movies but dont happen, arcee was meant to be in the first movie

no i really am sorry, sorry that fans care mor about continuity than bay

i wasnt laughing at his opinion, just that he thinks the twins ruin the continuity

what about jolt, potentially one of the arcees, barricade in the second movie

none of those were removed because of political correctness were they


Your not getting my point. Arcee was not planned to be in DOTM. Neither was Jolt. The point is the twins for all intents and purposes were in the 3rd movie. They were filmed in scenes, they were writen in the script and they served a purpose. Then they were removed because political correctness. So in this case i'd put it more on fans about continuity than Bay.


*psst* C'mere...

He does get it, has all along. I still think he was trolling. He got called on the carpet for it and is now trying to back pedal. Don't feed him. He wouldn't have laughed and treated your post as asinine if he was being sincere.

And you're right. They did screw up the continuity and flow of the film by cutting them out. Those scenes involving the hangar when they're supposed to be around are choppy and feel rushed like something was there but now it's not.


where did you get the power to interpret others thoughts and actions

Mods ahve already warned people for accusing others of trolling because they disagree. im sure you are not immune to that warning !

I would have laughed and i still do when someone believes by cares about continuity. he had an actor play two different roles in the first two movies for example

and what are the excuses for the choppiness and rushed scenes in the first two movies

The Difference is Arcee was cut out in Pre-Production, she was replaced with Ironhide. The Twins were cut out in Post-Production, they weren't replaced, that's why the hangar scene feels rushed. That's also why there's no explanation for a destroyed smart car, and why there's no explanation for pieces of them lying around when Sentinel betrays.

thats just poor editing

the parts remaing should have been removed in post production

they could have cut around the bits to tighten up th scene
