I am not one. I do say that Bay and crew proubly will put him in the sequel though. Any one want to speculate how he will arrive. I say that even though I dont want it to happen. Jazz will come back, but he will be rebuilt as Hot Rod. Think about it, Ratchet or by some other means fixes him and his original form wasn't good enough for him seeing as how he was weak and he chooses a new faster form. He also chooses a new name and is still Primes second in command. THis could lead up to Prime being taken out of the picture(only speculation, I dont want this to happen) then Hot Rod taking over and becoming Rodimus. I say it could work.
 
My friend thought you meant the New Movie called Hot Rod, starring Adam Samberg. LOL.:woot

But seriously, it would be nice to see Hot Rod in TF2.
 
I think Hot Rod would be great in the sequel.
 
He'd be best used as an Autobot who is the most interested in Earth's culture...and maybe one who is reluctant to fight.

HOT ROD does NOT instantly mean that OPTIMUS PRIME dies...which seems to be people's automatic objection to him.

Aside from that, the basics of his character make him something that the general public (which is now well aware of Transformers) will relate to. He's more or less the Peter Parker of Transformers (cocky, Brash, but a heart of gold, etc)

Ya I have been thinking they will do something like him and BB competing for Optimus attention.
 
I'm not opposed to Hot Rod or any of the other TF:TM characters appeaing in a sequel, but I don't want that to happen before the third movie.
 
I'm a big Hot Rod fan, but I'd prefer to see more of the classic Autobot cars, like Mirage or Hound.
 
hate him. Bay has already gotten the audience attached to bumblebee, a stylish sports car. We can't have another one of those can we? Never made sense to me, just because hot rod has the spark he's the leader? Nah, we need Ironhide or ratchet to step up!
 
I think hot rod should be more of a tuner car... like a highly tricked out Honda Civic, imho, would be awesome for a youthful exhuberant Hot Rod. I agree the sports car is well covered... that's part of why I'm not really looking to see Mirage or Jazz revived. And I think that Hot Rod should exhibit NO leadership qualities WHATSOEVER!

EXACTLY.

Hot Rod is THE PEOPLE'S AUTOBOT...

...and people should stop saying that Bumblebee and Hot Rod are too similar...espescially since once Bumblebee spoke, he was obviously quite a bit older than one would have expected. Hot Rod can be the brash youth of the Autobots/unlikely hero. It's basically a classic story/character arc, which always works (Star Wars anyone?)
 
No one has even pointed out what I stated earlier on when I began this thread. I want to know what you all thought about my idea about how Hot Rod could be introduced. Does anyone else think that Bay has it in him to rebuild Jazz into Hot Rod?
 
No if they bring back Jazz it will be Jazz with the G1 repaint like the toy.
 
I think it would be HORRIBLE to rebuild Jazz as Hot Rod. Jazz's persona doesn't really match Hot Rod, and using Jazz just for parts sounds really morbid... ESPEICALLY since Autobots should be raining from the sky in the sequel, y'know? Why bother messing up an already horridly done death...

Plus, it disallows us from being able to use Hot Rod to introduce new story, if he's really just an old autobot with a paint job and some body work.
 
As long as they're not gonna kill off Optimus Prime, then I'm down with having HR in the movies.
 
Like Iron Hide said to Optimus about the parents, " Its an option."
 
I think Ultra Magnus would be a better movie choice if were going for season three Autobots
 
If they wanted to include the brash and young Autobot in TF2, then I would prefer to see Sideswipe fill out the role. However, I wouldn't have a problem if they used Hot Rod for that. Still, I would prefer to save any of the TF:TM characters for the third film.
 
Bumblebee and Hot Rod are my favorites, but I do feel that a talking Bumblebee who's bbfs with Sam will probably be similar to Hot Rod. They might want to introduce Hot Rod since he is a popular character, so they could bring him on as an incredibly youthful ******* who listens to speed metal or something. The presense of HR doesnt mean the death of Prime.
 
I do like the idea of Jazz returning in a different form, but I really dislike the idea of him becoming someone else.
 
Hot Rod could be Mikaela's car/friend/guardian just like Bumblebee is to Sam. He's always gotten along with humans pretty well. Just a thought.
 
You want Jazz to be rebuilt as Hot Rod?

Absolutely not.

I think I stated at the begining that I dont want this to happen. I was just thinking that Michael Bay and his crew would do something like this.
 
I see that now...

But even then, I don't even think it's that likely... did you see how quickly and totally Jazz was thrown away? I'm pretty sure Bay doesn't care about him, and he did a big setup for more Autobots coming from the sky...

I just don't see it, not based on what I saw in the first movie...
