Transformers Blackout Appreciation Thread

[pergdaddy]

I loved Blackout in the movie. I really wish he had even more screen time and less death time. Oh well, they can't all live. I would have liked it more if he would have stepped on Josh Duhamel. THen wiped his foot off.

 

[Grievous]

he was awesome.

 

[Remy LeBeau X3]

The beginning scene where he demolishes the Qatar base is one of the best scenes imo. He was extremely beastly.

Remy,
That's when I knew the movie was going to be awesome. When the beginning of your movie starts with a bad mo' fo' transforming and demolishing an entire army/air force base in the fashion he did, you know it's gonna be non-stop coming at you. I liked Blackout from the very beginning. I just wish he would have put up a better fight against humans OR gone 'bot-o y 'bot-o with Ironhide.

Great 'bot

The best part is he was bidding his time on that trip to the base. You just KNEW he was anticipating blowing everything up

yeah..pure appetite for destruction (w/c i bet all the decepticons have actually)

 

[jnpoe]

It was indeed an awesome scene , And One that many people were really up for a deceptcion meaning > people against US foreign army actions loved it

 

[shigsy2003]

Well he was an awesome Transformer and got the first action scene in the film. I loved how he mercilessly demolished the Qatar base.

My only complaint which isn't Blackout's fault but Michael Bay's; is the fact that they reuse his 'holgram human turning head' footage when he reports to Starscream...CHEAP.

 

[gregtestagent]

At least he gets to say "All hail Megatron!"

 

[FatA$$]

he kicked major a$$ in the movie

 

[Orb]

Was Blackout in G1? The old cartoon? I don't remember him.
EDIT:Nevermind.

 

[Starscreamer]

I loved Blackout. I do feel the honor of destroying the base should have gone to Starscream but there you go

 

[gregtestagent]

Blackout and Skorpinoks made the attack on the base right?

 

[Starscreamer]

yep that was them

 

[rmix]

I (l) BLACKOUT!

The first scene when Blackout transformed was just awesome.. I'm still watching it over and over again It would be great if he came back but if not, I'm glad we saw him.

I would have liked it more if he would have stepped on Josh Duhamel. THen wiped his foot off.

Josh Duhamel is a good actor, how dare you, lol.

 

[Jake Cassidy]

It would have been better if Ironhide took out Blackout (even though I think he's cool).

 

[skorponok]

The part where he is destroying the jets with single shots...

 

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

Balckout was amazing in the movie, wish we would have gotten more of him. And that opening scene with him destroying the base was just golden!

 

[portland2002]

He needed more personality, notwithstanding he was one of the better-designed Transformers.

 

[The Dutch Hulk]

Was Blackout in G1? The old cartoon? I don't remember him.
EDIT:Nevermind.

You meant this one ???

Or you found an other one ???

His transformations were some of the best in the movie IMO.

His bio in the "official Transformers movie book" actually says that he's a coward at heart, and chooses to attack from afar or sneak up as opposed to attacking someone head-on.

Well he did sneak up on the army base didnt he, and he was sneaking up behind Prime for the Megatron fight, so maybe that was accurate. Saying that, he did kick major ass in the movie.

 

[A Dark Knight]

Loved Blackout! His scene at the start of the movie was truly amazing, it may have been the best one in the movie, I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see him land and Transform and when it happened it blew my mind, I loved the fact he destroyed everything at the base, I only wish he would have helped out Scorponok in the desert and destroyed the humans, ah well, hopefully he comes back for the next one.
