yeah, the guy was basically a cardboard cutout. The best thing I can say about the character is that the part didn't call for comedic buffoonery or babbling gibberish. Already you could probably lift the majority of his scenes out of the movies and it would make little difference.
Yep, he was the one (aside from Simmons) behind getting the air teams to Chicago while Sam and Epps got a group of people into Chicago from the ground. Sad that Lennox won't be in the movie but actors shouldn't be forced to be in a movie because of popular demand. I wish Josh well in his career. jD001
And fangirls weep. Apparently so do some fanboys. He doesn't need to be in it. Frankly none of the past human stars need to. If this is supposed to be a story separated from the first trilogy, they have no reason to show up anyway.
Indeed. Out of the large number of human characters in the Bay films he was one of the few that didn't annoy. The films could've probably done with a few more like him. Perhaps. Apart from a few little speeches here and there any random military guy that stumbled into the scene could've delivered his role.
Assuming that NEST is dissolved after DOTM, it easily explains why Morshower, Epps and Lennox don't appear in the film. Shame, as I didn't mind the characters. Sure they didn't have much in the way of personalities (just as any character doesn't in a Michael Bay film) but they were at least enjoyable human characters to have around.
Lennox and Epps (along with Maggie) were my favorites out of the humans, but at this point, with my feelings on TF4 (not interested in seeing it in theaters), even if he'd been in the film it wouldn't make a difference to me.
