1. All cuz its the last movie, doesn't mean he has to die. 2. Starscream hasn't had his chance. If he isn't going die doing something potentially important then they wasted one the biggest characters in the TF Universe. That is the fail here. 3. Megatron is still running around in the end of DOTM. Now that is ****ed-up. Better if Starscream becomes leader without an army to lead. It would be harmless, hilarious, and in-character.
Also this is the first starscream to be a competent leader of the decepticons. Hes motivated to do whats right for the race and if that meant making peace with the autobots at the end of the movie I believe he would do it. Oh well. Wasted talent.
He reforms. And if he's just playing around, Prime could easily stomp a mudhole in his ass. Megatron is beyond weakened at that point. And it's cute that you think that idea would work out. Are you trying to say that Starscream would just laugh at his misfortune of having no army to lead and leave it at that? No, he would go on a murderous rampage because that's all he would have left to do. He's a bloodthirsty, human-hating piece of shit. Leaving him alive would be completely irresponsible.
Starscream also knows not to hang around when he knows hes screwed. Thats why he tries to flee when sam shoots him in the eye with the grappling hook. I doubt he would rampage like that.
Eh. With nothing left anywhere, I like to think he'd just declare "Man, fuck it" and just start shooting shit in the streets.

@1- Sure it does, what would he do had he lived through this WAR? @2-Hasn't had his chance at what? How do you know he's not doing something important? I fail to see how he is wasted somehow. Him being in all three movies doesn't seem very wasted to me. @3- So basically you're mad because what happens isn't what you would like? How would he be the leader of anything if he had nothing to lead? I can't seem to find the hilarity if that happened.
"At last, I am now leader of the Decepticons! Which is really about one or two or three of them... ugh." - some Cybertron parody on YouTube.
I...might not want to go to see the movie with my friend because there won't be just one, but two twelve year olds screaming at the movie...
Either he suffers grevious damage that puts him into a robo-coma, or he actually dies. If they are planning a #4 I'd love to see the writers pull an "Animated" and have him resurrected by an AllSpark shard. Maybe by Thundercracker and Skywarp. Or just replace him with Thundercracker and/or Skywarp in the 4th movie. I'm just spitballing ideas.
Right, I don't know what you were saying in the first paragragh... 1. Cute? It's a little strange that you think that..... 2. Laugh? I didn't say laugh. It would be hilarious if he finally became leader of Decepticons(his life-dream) and then it turns that he has no one to lead. I don't understand why such a simple point isn't coming across here... 3. The Autobots wouldn't just leave him alive. Screamer would fled and never comeback unless he had plan for revenge. He would never go on a rampage. He would likely beg the Autobots to let him join them since he is such coward and would probably give the backstabbing nature another try down the road.
I know this will not be a popular opinion, but I could give a fuck: Sam's endeared himself enough that I think he deserves a scene where he's actually cool. Killing Starscream would do the trick.
