Nelson mentioned two more tidbits about the upcoming third Transformers movie at Shoot For The Edit.
“Uhm…. silver Benz is a car that Carly drives, and no Jeep Rollbar.Wheelie (or Wheels like Bay likes to call him) is in.”
When asked… “I understand the Silver Benz is a car she drives but why has it on site with all the other Autobots?” by a S4TE Member, Nelson replied…
“Because they carry all the cars with them to the different sets. They don’t send the car[Silver Mercedes] back to LA just because they’re not using it anymore.”
Many fans correctly guessed that the “Sliver” Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG is actually Carly’s car based on the Milwaukee Filming.
With this, we do know one thing; If you happen to spot “Wheels” rolling across the End Credits… Yes, that would be “Wheelie“.

Well, the Twins are back but we've seen them what? All of maybe two times, in brief shots. It's apparent they're not around for much of the filming we've seen so far, so as it's been said, they're having minimal screen time.
Wheelie is likely the same as without Megan Fox around there's likely to be less leg-humping.
To my knowledge Bay never said he was going on one of his 'misinformation campaigns' for this film. It's entirely plausible to bring Wheelie back to some extent as he was a more important character in ROTF than Jolt was. Casual movie-goers will remember Wheelie, not Jolt.
Even though i'm not Wheelie's biggest fan, I found he made better comic-relief than the Twins did, and am glad he's back for TF3.

Well that’s subjective. As long as there aren't any crude humping jokes, I'll have no problem with Wheelie.
The Twins are a tough call though, cause they have been publicly marked as politically incorrect stereotypes. The only thing they could do to avoid massive political outcry, like with ROTF, is to limit them to background characters. Though really, any screen time at all will probably be enough for people to start complaining.

Stop taking these characters seriously.

I just don't how it's possible to tone down wheelie & the twins to make them better. they'll still have the same annoying voices & talk like street talk.
they'll still act all clumbsy & make crude & rude jokes.
they'll still ruin all the scenes there in.

Or maybe there wasn't anything for a robot the size of a chihuahua to do when there's a 100 foot monstrosity lumbering about.

Yeeeaaah…

I guess Michael Bay is not a bad filmmaker after all. Bay didn't forget to put Wheelie in act 3 of Movie 2. The character didn't just disappear. It wasn't sloppy crap filmmaking and poor editing after all. Wheelie was too busy to show up in the 3rd act of Movie 2 because he was busy shooting his scenes for movie 3. Makes so much sense. I can rest easy now.

Good point! I take what I said back about getting worried that he lied about reducing the stupid humor. (now it just depends on what his definition of "reducing" is!)
Awesomus Prime
He lies about the characters and plot to throw fans off, but he wouldn't lie about trying to fix the movie! That's just plain ridiculous, and you know it.
Yeah… apparently, not a lot of people on this forum know how movies work… It's not about the characters. It's the writing!
Starscreamownz
Good. I was afraid Bay sent Wheelie the way of Old Yeller like Barricade and Jolt.
Jadryx
Yeah, but you can never tell what will turn out to be true and what is false until you acutally see the movie. (he doesn't lie about everything does he? ) We can't assume that something he has said is false because of the misinformation campaign….but people have to realize that it MAY be false.
The whole misinformation thing actually kind of drives me crazy. I can't get my hopes up for something that Bay says (like a reduction of stupid humor) only to find out later that he lied (I really hope that one wasn't a lie!) Humor is ok. The first one was better than the second in that regard. A few things definitely coulnd have been left out of ROTF.
I know Bay wants to keep stuff secrect. I don't want to know EVERYTHING about the movie before I see it (I should stop looking at all the boards then, huh?) but I also want to be able to trust at least most of the info that comes from the director's mouth about the movie. If he doesn't want to reaveal something just don't say anything rather than lie.
Autobot_Wall-E
I was hoping Mikaela would take him with her. Sure Sam would have to pay child er… alien support but at least that would be one less nuisance in these movies
Sideswipe80
Bay lies man. It's part of his misinformation campaign.
Opticron Primal
Yeah because there's no way in hell they can re-write their characters to tone them down a bit this time around, right? -_-
DecepticonSpike
As long as he's not humping legs, I can deal with it.
MetroBub
We might as well add its ok for megatron to say no i want both when he rips Jazz in half, But Prime to rip a transformers face off is just down right……… *shurgs* low ?
