    What happened to Brawl and Bonecrusher? I saw them at the end of the movie and they died but I didn't see them on the carrier, dropping them into the ocean!:confused:

    Maybe they were already in they ocean? I mean, there was a lot of wreckage, it seems as though only Megatron was left semi-intact. (though it does seem that Meg's arm was cut off) How do you know they weren't there? (actually, if you look, two guys are hauling off what appears to be Bonecrusher's toe)

    Actually, it wasn't, man. :rolleyes:

    According to the Jungle Bonecrusher toy, he got away. He went down to South America, I think.

    If secretary defense Kellar says that they were dropped off in the bottom of the sea, that is what happened.

    Just cuz you didn't see it happen, doesn't mean it didn't happen

    Sheeeeehs, did they need to have a scene where they drop off all the Decepticons one by one??? We get the point after they dropped off megatron

    'Pics or it didn't happen' is a sadly rampant attitude nowadays.

    well brawl might have been dropped, but the constructicons are going to be in the next movie, and they already used bonecrushers name as a non-constructicon, so will they reuse bonecrusher, or give on of the guys a new name?

    I think it might have fallen under that Decepticon fans don't matter so lets not even bother to waste any time showing them getting dumped into the ocean since they were only there to get killed and not really there to be any sort of character.

    Dumped in first, dumped in on another trip out there, made into cans by Dew Bot, does it really matter what happened after they were dead since they were not important when they were alive?

    They appeared to be dead at the end of the first movie.
    That doesn't mean they won't be making a return in the sequel.

    Orci has hinted at it, and creatively speaking it would make sense for the decepticons to use their 'dead' from the previous movie to bolster the power of a certain bot who has too many minds anyway.

    This also curtails the name issue. All we know for certain is that Jazz isn't coming back.
    Characters having died in a previous movie, are often used for story points later. Like Barricade's cut so he would live. A different movie example would be X3's return of jean, and X4's potential to bring xavier back. And don't forget the countless uses of this method throughout 70s-90s media scifi media.

    All we know for certain on Bonecrusher and Devastator is that they were heavily damaged into stasis lock. Their bodies may or may not have been dumped. We do know that Blackout and Megs were dumped over the edge. I would assume Brawlstator as well. Bonecrusher having been dismembered before the main warzone leaves him room for barricade to clean up, or others, as the secretary of Defense and military may not have been aware of his outcome till after he was hauled away by someone. Therefore, to their knowledge all the bodies were dumped, even though some escaped notice.

    This story point will probably be highlighted in the next film, unless Devastator is entirely made up of new robots.

    Well if we're going to get a Constructicon team that forms Devastator they will already be reusing one name.

    They are gone, long gone!! It was just poor script writing, just like Barricade just falling of the planet!! Thats what you get when you start filming with a unfinished script!!
