Easy. Bay includes Waspinator, patterned fairly closely after his classic "Beast Wars" incarnation, complete with the original voice actor.
...and manages to screw it up in the only way possible: he ends up making Waspinator, a lovable and oft-mangled comic relief character, into a figure of genuine pathos, and tragedy. He actually does a good job at it -- too good, in fact. In the only place and time in the film where it would have been uncalled for.
The audience ends up feeling bad for Waspy, to the point where it starts getting depressing. For once, with no warning or fanfare, Bay has actually managed to tug at the audience's heart strings on a deep, honest level; beyond any cloying formula or even pretensions of "high art," but from the simple depths of good storytelling at it's most pure.
Then Waspinator dies.
Onscreen. In a brutal, savage fashion, bordering on vivisection.
It takes six minutes.
He only stops screaming at the very end.
People are traumatized. Not just children, although they're the largest share----but grown men, too, many not even Transformers fans, just action movie fans coming in to see a monster flick on a hot summer day. Weeping, like they'd had to put down their dog with their own bare hands.
The Scene, as it quickly becomes known, is iconic. Like Old Yeller, or the Velveteen Rabbit. A generation grows up in America hesitant to crush an insect...or even throw away a broken machine.
The worst part, of course, was in the movie itself. Where, after finding Waspy's corpse (possibly his corpse----there's uncomfortable speculation that he might not be completely dead), Optimus Prime...makes a one-liner, then tosses the husk into a commercial recycling dumpster.
Whats left of the head pops off, rolls a few feet, then comes to a stop, leering a death-grin at the audience.
Then the movie goes on, as normal. As expected. With many explosions, but nary a look back.
...THAT is how you fuck up a movie!
And equally brilliant is Flying Noypi's (abbreviated) entry:
The last scene show everything is alright as the world was once again saved by the Beef and he and Megan Fox are now looking into each other's eyes. As they are ready to kiss, Megan Fox's eyes widen and blood trickles out of her lips. The camera pans down and we see a blade sticking out of her belly.The next shot shows the blade connected to a robotic arm and the arm is connected to................
A kid with a rose in his other hand, wearing a pink shirt, shorts, and looks like he's from the 80's.
duhn-duhn-DUHN!!!
Seriously, if Transformers 3 had a cameo by the Megan Fox Yellow Rose kid, I could probably forgive it even if it had Ranchoth's Waspinator scene. Congrats, you two -- and well done to all of you who entered. Here's hoping none of this actually comes true.
