I watched Transformers a few days ago, and I noticed something about two of the Autobots in the movie. They were twins and they both portrayed stereotypical blacks. They talked that way, fought and bickered all the time, one had a gold tooth, and they both were illiterate. Does this not sound racist to you? When I saw it thats all I was thinking about when they were on the screen; how incredibly racist Michael Bay was being with those characters. So tell me what you think, was Michael Bay being racist? Or do you think not?

I agree it was racist.
RIGHT when the movie starts, it shows an AFRICAN-AMERICAN tribe and guess what happens to them? They die.

There's a difference between racism and stereotyping.

Wah let's complain about something no one cares about from a popular movie other than overly sensitive idiots.

Perhaps those werent actors and just regular black people from the hood and they were told by michael bay to just act how they would normally act.

Stereotypical..
People who adhere to the rap subculture are a stereotype, not a race.

Dude I hope you were attempting to be humorous (which, if so, was an epic fail) and you aren't really that fucking stupid. Everyone is African American? Really....?

They are comic relief for the movie. The fact that they are black stereotypes, really doesn't have to do with racism. It wasn't geared towards that, in the first place. Besides, it's better than two white guys crackin' jokes, right?

It's not racist you idiot, so i guess it's racist when they show a white family, talking like white people, eating white food, and having normal white lives RIGHT?!! GOD NO ONE KNOWS WHAT TRUE RACISM IS ANYMORE.

So every movie, book, and living person is racist. This is based off of your logic.
Why the hate? Where is the love?

That was evident in the last movie, when the only Autobot that died was the black one.
Just like in this one, the black autobot twins can't read, have gold teeth, and generally parade around being OH SO DAMN FUNNY, MASSAH!
...But you know what? You hear no complaints, because Obama's president, bitches.
Autobots ROLL OUT, I got my twin Glock 40's...cocked back, me and my homies, so drop that.

"Actor Reno Wilson, who is black, voices Mudflap. Tom Kenny, the white actor behind SpongeBob SquarePants, voices Skids."
They just HAVE to put that? They can't just add some mystery to the reader in finding out their race?
