    Well, the Movie had a more realistic take on war, a body count was inevitable. I maybe might have liked Wheeljack to survive, if only because if he'd continued to be sold afterward his toy wouldn't be so hard to get ahold of now. I actually wish more of the storyboarded deaths had been shown. For example:
    *Mirage being blasted by Megatron after nailing Bombshell (explaining Mirage never appearing later and how Bombshell came to be injured. Shrapnel took a hit from tank-mode Blitzwing thanks to Kup and got run over by Optimus Prime. Kickback got his head smashed by Kup when Kup used him as a ramp. But Bombshell was never shown getting hurt. Or at all until the scene aboard Astrotrain)
    *Red Alert and some others falling at the hands of the Constructicons after splitting Devastator with a missile (explaining why he's split when Optimus Prime enters the battle and how Frenzy and Rumble were able to disrupt his combination aboard Astrotrain so easily)
    *Shockwave's death scene
    To above: Face it, Ironhide's head got blown up.

    Face it......we never saw it so you cant prove with out a doubt it happened from within the story.

    You know, I've always been a bit supprised that some fan boy hasent already attempted too do so.

    Brawn since we really didn't get a musclebot in Season 3. We got a substitiute for every other character listed on there except him and Starscream (who came back as a ghost).

    Now you're just really splitting hairs. This notion of "If it didn't happen right on the screen, center-framed, and in complete focus, then it never happened." can be taken a bit too far.

    It wasn't even "offscreen" so much as "out-of-frame". It's a discretion shot: Gory Discretion Shot - Television Tropes & Idioms so they don't have to show kids Ironhide's head exploding and then his stump leaking fluids all over the blasted deck.

    In Alien you never actually see Lambert be killed. There is no doubt the xenomorph did it, though.

    I'm not splitting hairs at all.

    I didnt say it wasnt implied or could not have happened.

    I said we didnt see it.

    And thats a fact.

    BTW I've never seen all o Aliens or any of the related films.

    yeah, especially with how advanced technology is now, i'm sure someone has the ability to create these scenes. You don't even really need a voice over, just get the sounds and explosions right!

    Shockwave appeared in the "Call of the Future" video game serving under Galvatron. Since this game does take place in the G1 continuity, he survived the Unicron attack.

    Correction......the game takes place in "A" G1 continuity not "THE" G1 continuity.

    Specifically the Jaspanese G1 continuity, which is a different continuity that the US continuity.
