SWQ: So... I guess we ought to do introductions.
TD: I guess so.
I'm Silver Wolf Queen. I'm an avid transformers fan.
I'm the Director of the Transformers Trilogy.
But I guess you already knew that.
Kinda... yeah.
Okay. So I hear you have some questions regarding the movies...
Why'd you kill Jazz?
Straight to the point... okay. Well... I didn't personally kill him...
Yes you did.
No. Technically it was the writers.
O.O... Trouble me not with your logic.
…
Just tell me why you did it.
To create drama. We had to create the feeling of dread in
the viewers some how.
As if the deaths of seemingly hundreds of people wasn't enough...
Exactly.
Okay... but was it really necessary to rip him in half?
Isn't that a little over kill?
You tell me.
Yes... it was.
And that's your opinion.
You still killed him.
Drama.
Drama doesn't change the fact that you killed him. And you didn't
even bother thinking about reviving him with the Allspark shard. It
was Megatron who was revived.
Are you going to obsess over this the entire time?
Maybe...
Okay... is there anything else you would like to discuss?
Yes.
Care to elaborate?
How about I give it to you as a list of questions and/or topics?
If you feel the need.
You killed Jazz.
1. You killed Ironhide.
2. You killed Arcee, Chromia, and Elita One.
3. Why wasn't Sunstreaker brought in at the same time as Sideswipe (blasphemy!)?
4. Who the heck are Dino and Que?
5. If Dino and Que are supposed to be Mirage and Wheeljack, why didn't
you just say that? 'Cause personally, I was confused.
6. And if Que was supposed to be Wheeljack, then you killed Wheeljack
(yet any other fan favorite casualty).
7. AND if Que supposed to be Wheeljack, why wasn't he accompanied by
more explosions?
8. Did Bumblebee's legs really have to get ripped off in the first movie?
9. And if the Cybertronians have never been to Earth before, then why
does Bee have the name of an insect native to Earth that bares a striking
resemblance to his color scheme?
10. Why wasn't there more elaboration on what happened to Barricade
after the 1st movie? He completely disappeared off the radar.
11. Why did Chromia and Elita One have weird colors?
12. Why was there no real interaction between Chromia and Ironhide
and Elita One and Optimus?
13. Are Optimus and Megatron brothers?
14. I consider it a crime that Prowl hasn't made an appearance. There's
not even a mention of his name.
15. Are you related to anyone who worked on Season Three or movie
of G1?
The last one's a little random... don't you think?
It's very relevant to me.
Okay. Well, we already discussed topic one.
We're still not finished with that one.
Oh, I have no doubt in my mind that we're not. Okay,
yet again, Topic Two was to create drama and suspense
and also meant to show just how bad of a guy Sentinel was.
I don't like Sentinel.
You weren't supposed to.
Good. 'Cause I don't.
*sigh* This is going to be a long chat... Topic Three
was also for drama. You can't have a movie about wars
without some casualties.
Because Cybertronian casualties are so much
more gut wrenching that human armed forces casualties.
Moving onto Topic Four. Sunstreaker was just considered
to moody and unrelatable to be in the 2nd movie.
Or the 3rd.
Or the 3rd.
Just like the concept of female alien robots was
too much for people to wrap their minds around in
the 1st movie, but was acceptable in the 2nd.
No comment...
Uh huh. That's what I thought.
Okay Topic Five. Dino and Que were meant to
be Mirage and Wheeljack.
Then why didn't you just say that?
Well... technically that's Topic Six, but okay. We renamed
them because Dino and Que sounded cooler.
Yes. Because randomly changing the names of
beloved Transformers characters won't confuse
anyone. While you're at it, why don't you change
Optimus's name to Steve... or Ironhide to Phil.
Oh and how about changing Bumblebee to Chuck?
'Cause that's more relatable...
I believe I detected some sarcasm there.
What would make you think that?
Absolutely nothing. My answer to
Topic Seven is yet again drama.
You just love that excuse.
Yes. Yes I do.
I dislike that excuse.
Moving on the Topic Eight... do you have a thing
for explosions?
Yes... Why? Who want's to know?
Just checking. Well, it wouldn't exactly make much
sense to have explosions at the beginning of the movie
before any of the adrenaline pumping action began.
But explosions are Wheeljack's- I mean Que's-
shtick! You can't have one without the other. It
like having the PB without the J or having Prowl
without the cold hard logic.
I didn't know you felt that strongly about the subject.
Well I do.
Topic Nine: The simple answer... yes. Yes they did.
You made my little sister cry.
Well this movie was not made with kids under 13 in mind.
What makes you think she's a kid under 13? Grown
women are aloud to cry.
I like Topic Ten. It's less controvertial. In
simple terms, his name roughly translated from
Cybertronian is Bumblebee.
But as far as I know, Cybertronian doesn't
have anything resembling bees.
Insecticons.
But their altmodes were only a wasp, a dragonfly,
and a beetle. No bumblebees. And they only got those
altmodes after waking up on Earth. So Nyah!
*immaturely sticks out tongue*
Real mature.
I know. I'm a great communicator.
For Topic Eleven, we didn't think the fans cared.
Well we do.
But we had no way of knowing that when we did the
2nd movie... or the 3rd for that matter.
You know... there's this little sight called FanFiction
where fans write about their favorite fandoms. You
should check it out some time. It's real helpful in
researching what the fans want to see.
You're impossible.
So I've been told. So what happened to Barricade?
That question wasn't on the list.
Okay, now you're just trying to annoy me.
What would make you think that?
Just answer the question.
Okay. Well, the best I can give you is an 'I don't know'.
An 'I don't know'? That's it? You guys never
put any thought into where one of your major
bad guys from the 1st movie went when you started
the sequel?
No. Not really. We didn't feel we needed to.
Well you were wrong.
Topic Twelve: I can't really answer that one. You'd
have to talk to one of the character design artists about that one.
Oh believe me... I will.
I send my prayers to that poor artist.
Hey! I'm not that bad!
I beg to differ, but moving along. Topic Thirteen: We didn't
feel we needed to. Plus, there wasn't enough time in the movie.
Stupid time restraints.
I know. It's tragic.
Yeah, especially since you found so much time to
highlight Sam's awkward relationship with his girlfriend.
Topic Fourteen: Yes.
That's it?
Yup.
No more elaboration on the point?
Nope.
Okay...
So I guess you're a Prowl fan.
Yes. As Topic Fifteen so clearly implies.
Well, Prowl's cold hard logic was considered too unfriendly
for the movies.
But it's so endearing!
You think so?
Yes. Very much. I also like when he glitches. It
adds humor to any situation.
I'll keep that in mind for future movies.
You'd better. Prowl for the win! *Proudly waves
banner that reads 'I Luv Prowl!'*
Now on to the random sixteenth question.
It's not random to me.
So you've said... and no. I'm not related to anyone who worked
on Season Three or the movie for G1. Why do you ask?
Because in the G1 movie, the majority of my favorite characters
died within the first 8 minutes of me turning it on. Then in Season
Three, they were replaced by less appealing characters who I thought
were kind of naive with no redeeming qualities, but that's just my opinion.
That's a rather grim outlook on the third season.
Maybe. But the way I saw it Prowl, Ironhide, Ratchet,
Brawn, and Optimus Prime were dead; Bumblebee and Jazz
were rarely in there; Rodimus was so stupid he didn't deserve
to survive half the trouble he got into, let alone be Prime (someone
obviously wasn't using the wisdom of the Primes properly);
and the Decepticons were just pitiful. Anf Bumblebee's name was
changed to Gold Bug (Who's bright idea was that?). So the show
no longer held any meaning for me.
You really dislike the third season.
Yes. Yes I do. And I guess watching a "futuristic show"
set in 2005 while living in 2013 wasn't helping either.
Plus, the theme song got worse every season.
You do realize this chat about the Bayverse movies
has completely derailed into you ranting about G1, right?
Yes. And I apologize to any G1 fans out there.
I really do like G1... just not Season Three.
Okay. Well if that's all the questions you want to
ask, then I guess I'll get going.
Who said I was finished?
Are you?
Yes.
Then what's the problem?
Nothing. I was just testing you.

A/N: Hey everyone! Thank you so much for reading this. Honestly, the plot bunnies attacked and wouldn't let me go until I wrote it down. So I hope you all enjoyed it! There are more chapters to come! But I do need your help to keep this story running. I can only come up with so many questions off the top of my head, so if you guys have ever had any questions about the Transformers movies that you've wanted to ask Michael Bay, send them in as a review! If I use your questions in later chapters, I'll give you credit. And best of all, you'll finally get an answer to your questions! I'll answer all questions to the best of my abilities, and if I don't know the actual answer, I'll just make something up :) So please send in those questions that have been gnawing away at the back of your minds!
