As horrible as Transformers 2 was, you knew there was going to be a third installment…in 3D. That’s just how things work. You get suckered out of your hard earned money, get bent over by another Hollywood blockbuster, and you come crawling back begging for more.

Oh, but this time Michael Bay has a gameplan. He claims, “One thing we’re getting rid of is what I call the dorky comedy.” First of all, anyone who calls something “dorky comedy” has no capability of knowing a damn thing about comedy in general. But the most revealing, is Bay’s revelation that the racist robots Mudflaps and Skids (yes, that was their name) will not be making an appearance in Transformers 3. Does he finally realize how 1930 that comedy bit was? After seeing Transformers 2, I was inspired to write a poetic review .  Part of my review was dedicated to the racist robots:

Black Robots

Robot with gold tooth, standing with a grin.

Speaking jive, bumping fists, everything but eating chicken.

It was shocking he could not read or that he only spoke in slang.

Was this OK’d by execs in ’09? I’m just sayin’… dang.

I’m not sure what saddens me worse: The fact that I won’t be able to rip apart all things Michael Bay comedy anymore or that they are actually going to continue taking turds on my Transformers. I wish they would have stopped at the amazing first installment.
