That's Wheelie, he appeared in a lot of the old cartoons, also in the '86 animated movie. Annoying little bugger, always spoke in rhymes and never could do much.

got tickets to a midnight showing booked for this, sorta excited at the FX, but apprehensive again about the story!

I'm in my early twenties too, I just enjoy the old cartoons a lot.

Well you'll learn to hate him like us old farts do, in time as you become aqquainted, no doubt.

Jar Jar 15 years before there WAS a JarJar.

That little orange f***.

I didn't really like the CG Beast Wars, I enjoy toons, so I loved Beast Wars II/Neo. I liked Dinobot, Cheetor and Rattrap, but it just didn't click with me. Energon and Cybertron also had CG animation that turned me off of it, but it was alright I guess. I still love RiD so much cuz of Scourge.

i remember rattrap, i had a toy of him lol...i also had one of optimus primal and the megatron (cant remember his proper name from beast wars)

Why do you hate Jar Jar so much? Fair enough he is a F***
Is barricade going to be in ROTF i havent seen him mentioned anywhere
but Robert Orci said his disappearance was a thread for movie 2?

Spoiler:
Barricade is gone, he's seen getting killed in one of the comics, I don't remember which one, but we do see a possibly reformatted Barricade, since Sideways almost looks exactly like him.

Which comic though cause in Alliance you see barricade spying on the autobots and in Reign of Starscream he has recovered.

'Cause Jar Jar is the classic case of something that is bought into an piece long established in tone.... that almost completely, and either singlehandedly destroys the tone, or is the figurehead of what destroys the tone. (For another example of this, see "Itchy and Scratchy...and Poochie".)

A quasi literal Jar Jar moment was when T3 had 'comedy' scenes in gay bars, glaring, cynical reused "inappropriate sunglasses choices" gags etc ruined the serious scifi nightmare tone set out by the 1st movie and most of the second.

Badly handled infantile comedy and things of a more serious gritty nature do not mix well in instances like this: It winds up detracting from the ability to take the situation's gravity seriously.

And they always use a stupid adult/baby voice for these f***s..
adding further to their irritating qualities:

Wheelie.
Slimer in the cartoons.
Scooter from those f***s, the Gobots.
Jar Jar.

Fine I guess for 3 yr olds, but highly, highly irritating to adults.

Ladies and gentlemen I rest my case.

I'm not sure, I missed out on most of the tie-in movie comics.
