I don't know why people have to like him. Jazz was my least favorite autobot and skorpinok was my least favorite decepticon. They could have made jazz seem African American with just a good voice, they didn't have to turn him into an 80's break dancer, all he was missing was some MC Hammer parachute pants and a red Micheal jackson leather coat. And "whats up little *****es" not only was it stupid, it was totally out of character for the Jazz I remember.
I liked blackout and all but, isn't there enough decepticons from g1 and other transformers' series to come up with a name instead of just making up a new one, because I can not for the life of me find anything about a transformer named blackout aside from movie blackout. Please correct me if I'm wrong tho.
