Carly would never have said that

In the classic 1980s Sunbow Transformers series, Spike Witwicky’s girlfriend is Carley, a blonde teenaged supergenius who, IIRC, just graduated from MIT.  I forget where teenaged Spike and his dad Sparkplug were working when they got attacked by the Decepticons–I think it was an oil rig–and met the Autobots, but they always wore the same hardhats, jeans and tan jackets.  Sparkplug turned out be some kind of blue collar worker who was smart enough to invent stuff with Autobot scientists Wheeljack, Ratchet and Perceptor (in the comic book, he was a mechanic and only had a relatively minor role).  In 1986, when the timeline jumped 20 years, Spike and Carly were Earth’s ambassadors to Cybertron.

In 2007’s Transformers, “Sam” Witwicky’s girlfriend knows about cars because her father was a car thief.

Asked in a recent interview how she might stop Megatron from destroying the earth, “actress” Megan Fox said she would, “barter with him…and instead of the entire planet, can you just take out all of the white trash, hillbilly, anti-gay, super bible-beating people in Middle America?”

O-kay.

So, not only does that show absolute contempt for the people who pay her salary, but it shows complete ignorance of her material.

First, her character is what most people would consider “white trash.”
Second, I realize these “adult” Michael Bay live action/CGI films don’t have half the plot of the Sunbow cartoon (and that’s not saying much) and don’t hold a candle to the comic books or the excellent Animated series that just ended after only 36 episodes on Cartoon Network, but humans aren’t even worth bargaining chips in Megatron’s eyes.  We’re no more to him than tiny robot toys are to us.  He’s interested in  energy, and power.  If he can strip earth of its natural resources without killing humans, so what.  If he has to kill all of us to get the planet’s resources, so what.

Seriously, though, who does this woman think she’s appealing to?

Isn’t that hate speech?
If someone goes on a killing spree against Middle class Christians, can we accuse Megan Fox of inspiring it?

Meanwhile, sorta has-been (her most successful films in recent years have been the Shrek movies) Cameron Diaz says she thinks there are too many children in the world.  Now that’s an ogre for you.

 What if someone suggested that alien invaders should just take out all the airheaded Hollywood starlets?
