"flagrant racism in new transformers movie? (swipe)"
judge for yourself, but this seems pretty blatant to me:
"There are two robots in the film called Mudflap and Skids, and despite being red and green, respectively, they are voiced in a way that clearly designates them to be the “black” robots. Also, Skids has a gold front tooth (no, I’m serious) and both cannot read."
8. Throughout the film, an evil government bureaucrat keeps making reference to a president who authorized him to override the plans devised by our benevolent military heroes. Right when you start wondering what paycheck-gobbling veteran actor they’ve tapped to play this president, a character announces, “President Obama has been taken to an underground bunker.” So that’s kind of weird.

I have no doubt in my mind that we can not beat Michael Bay in one on one combat. We are going to have to blow up the entire state his house resides in

Megatron defrosted and could speak English straight away doesn't it?
Plus The Fallen, Starscream and Megs converse in English when they're on Cybertron too.
In fact the Decepticons got no business speaking English at all. they should be bitch slapping robots speaking Earth language for selling to fuuuck out.

Like, LOVED them. They were the biggest hit of the film. I wasn't laughing, but literally everyone else was, in a theater audience that was half-black.
I'm not denying they're racist, of course they are. But Michael Bay knows what his American audiences want-- and I'd be willing to bet the majority of his white and black audiences in America will think the twins are hilarious.

but Bay should still have a better conscience about something like that. like racism is the only cheap way to entertain audiences... cmon, we still have sexism.
