Barricade in ROTF

[neevnav]

So I think I've found fairly solid evidence that Barricade is in ROTF.

Caution, spoilers from Alliance #4 below, so if you haven't read it and don't want to be spoiled, turn back.








So part way through issue 4, the Autobots are hunting Cons all over the world. However, at one point, Ironhide tells Prime that Barricade got away again says he'll notify Bumblebee, who is with Sam. Here's the panel that it appears in. http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3463/3400547886_067840b3a9_o.jpg

So I think we'll see Barricade once again hunting down Bumblebee and Sam, since this issue ends right as ROTF begins. So he's definitely alive at the start of the film.

Thoughts?

Bay edited out his death scene from the first movie due to his popularity, so I'd be surprised if he wasn't back.

I think he was cut for budget, actually

[LightningFlash]

He's in the movie; we've seen pictures of the Saleen already.

[CyclopsSummers]

Barricade may be a cameo
Hes not mentionned on the transformers 'list

[LightningFlash]

And neither is Megatron, but we know he's in it.

[Anubis Raptor]

There's always a possibility...

[powerbomb1411]

But Megatron is plastered all over the trailer. I'm almost wondering if Barricade won't be in it, maybe they had him on set just to throw us off, or maybe he's in a cameo just to die. I mean, there were a few of him, maybe he needed to be blown up multiple times.

[shigsy2003]

Barricade doesn't appear. Sorry.

[protocida]

Barricade has to appear in Transformers 3.

And fight Prowl.

[LightningFlash]

That's one thing I hate about the films.

Barricade shows up in the first one, then disappears, and now won't even be in ROTF.

That's pretty lame if you ask me.

[DW4]

Agreed, very lame and lazy.

[protocida]

He got cut. There were pictures of his alt-mode on Set. I believe he was supposed to attack Sam's college.

[LightningFlash]

So why does he keep getting cut then?

Bay has said before that his death scene got cut because he was a popular character in the first film. And then they focused some on him in the prequel comics, but yet, he's still cut from ROTF.

He better be in the third movie though.

[Superhero 101]

i thought barricade attacked Sam in the Library. That sucks.

[protocida]

I believe he was going to. They problably cut him due budget and/or overcrowing.

[Aesop Rocks]

In Transformers: Reign of Starscream 1 or 2 we see that after he drove off (in Transformers 1) he was killed.

[protocida]

No, he survived. Starscream told him to stay on Earth as a spy.

[Aesop Rocks]

Oh, alright. He looked pretty messed up so I figured Starscream just left him there to die.

[Grievous]

Barricade attacks Sam in the college he goes to in the movie. It's in the trailer when Sam gets under the table and you see the wall being knocked down in the background but it stops there because Bay wants Barricade's apperance in the flim to be a surprise for all the Barricade fans out there, like me!:yay:

[Aesop Rocks]

Alice the Predator informs Barricade Sam is there.

[Mantis Rapture]

Barracaide AINT IN THE FILM. AT ALL.

Alice is the one who bursts through the wall during the college scene.

[Aesop Rocks]

Because she has the strength to do something like that? Doubtful.

[Mantis Rapture]

I've seen the film twice, dude.

Only one of those times was out of choice, by the way.

No Barracaide.

[Aesop Rocks]

Cool story, bro.

[Mantis Rapture]

Its not a cool story at all, Mr Aesop. It is true though.

Sam and Alice are in his dorm room. She's trying it on with him and Sam is trying to resist. She straddles him. A robot tail comes out from under her skirt and comes round to attack sam, but someones coming into the room and the tail goes back (into her ass, i like to think). Mikela walks in, see's Sam and the hot bot seemingly at it and ****s off. The next thing you know the hot bots tounge comes flying out a starts strangling Sam. Mikela and his roomie hear the ruckus and burst in the room and **** kicks off...anyway, they end up hiding in the libary - Sam and Mikala have a funny exchange, hotbot bursts through the wall and causes havoc. They make it outside, Mikala hotwires a car, the hotbot gets it's ass handed to it alongside one of the worst oneliners you'll ever hear.

No Barricade

[LightningFlash]

No Barracaide.

But yet, you don't know how to spell out Barricade correctly?

[Mantis Rapture]

I apologise profusely for my slack use of grammar and inadequate spelling, Mr Flash.

And how would me having seen this film twice influence my spelling of the word Barricade? (Did i spell it right this time?)

No Barricade


sorry but I still say Barricade is in that scene

[Mantis Rapture]

Where?

[LightningFlash]

I apologise profusely for my slack use of grammar and inadequate spelling, Mr Flash.

Well if you didn't spell it right this time, it would've been disappointing since I spelled it right already beforehand.

And my last name is Flash...so why call me Mr. Flash? LF will do just fine, thank you...

Mr. Rapture?

Haha

[Mantis Rapture]

I was just joking around mate, ****ing hell.

[LightningFlash]

Lol.

I'm pretty sure you got angry before me. Hence me saying 'haha' at the end, and you say '****ing hell'.

[shigsy2003]

sorry but I still say Barricade is in that scene

Woah. What's with all the tension? To those who are insisting Barricade is in ROTF you are all going to be disappointed. Alice attacks Sam in the college. You will find that out soon enough anyway.

[Stealthmanx]

hey i meant to ask you about the score in the film, are there any of the already known themes, in this sequel? cause i have heard bits of the new score and so far everything is new.. and i mean themes like when frenzy was on airforce one, or when starscream calls on the decepticons

[ChicageauxTiger]

No Barricade!? REALLY!?!

Mr. Bay, that's pretty lame / lazy / stupid / bad storytelling / wasteful / shameful / craptastic.

Unless, of course, that he shows up in Transformers 3: The Rise Of Barricade! :oldrazz:

[CelticPredator]

He probably will....Maybe they want him to live until the third.

[ChicageauxTiger]

He probably will....Maybe they want him to live until the third.

I just wonder what Bay's explaination as to where he's been this whole time?

Michael Bay: "Um, yeah ... Barricade. Right. Well, he, uh, broke down on the interstate in the 1st movie, you see. And he's been sitting by the side of the road waiting for a jump start ever since. Seeing as it was kind of a rough neighborhood, LAPD's been kinda slow to respond in that area."

:oldrazz:

[TheVileOne]

Barricade is nowhere to be found.

Just more idiocy and plot holes in this mess of franchise.

LOL that people actually thought they were going to explain why Barricade never showed up.

[Mr. Earle]

alongside one of the worst oneliners you'll ever hear. [/spoiler]What one liner? I want to hear it!!!!

[CyclopsSummers]

He's in the movie; we've seen pictures of the Saleen already.

Yeah but why did we show the saleen if he doesnt appear in this movie :huh:


I've seen the film twice, dude.

Only one of those times was out of choice, by the way.

No Barracaide.

Im really really really disapointed. What is he doing so ? hes totally absent during T1' final battle, totally absent in T2 ................... WTF ????!!!!!!!!!!!!!


No Barricade!? REALLY!?!
Mr. Bay, that's pretty lame / lazy / stupid / bad storytelling / wasteful / shameful / craptastic.


I agree with

[Raiden]

Maybe Bay has ADD that's why he forgot all about Barricade. This may explain his movies alot. :oldrazz:

[Nibune]

Perfect solution would have been Barrciade lands in Paris & abducts Sam's parents

then BB finally puts him down for good

Barricade would have been perfect to use for kidnapping/hostage crisis

[NightCrawler]

Funny how those who were arguing went hiding after proven wrong... no apologies guys?

[Wolfwood]

Seriously, poor Mantis. Everyone was turning and picking on him, yet he was vindicated in the end.

[sauronthegreat]

First I thought that this thing would bother me the most about this film, but after seeing it I really don't care anymore.

The film is so stupid and without a point that this detail would fix nothing.
When everything is in a mess with these films then everything should stay that way.
How do you all explain different (but the same) constructicons, blackout's return and sudden demise, new and old autobots without ANY character developments, a new villain that looks the same as all other Primes, but when it comes to Optimus - he is distinctively different... the things just go on and on
