Starscream (Michael Bay pentalogy)

Starscream is a major Decepticon who occurred in the first three films. He was Megatron's 2nd-in-command until he died, and thus got succeeded by Barricade.

He is voiced by Charlie Adler.

Why He Sucks

 * 1) Like Megatron, he has a stale and flat personality.
 * 2) The Cybertronian language on his jet mode (F-22 Raptor) in Revenge of the Fallen was never explained at all.
 * 3) His death done by Sam Witwicky was very unsatisfactory.
 * 4) He was flanderized from being the silly comic relief of the Decepticons to being a huge murdering psychopath.
 * 5) His design is grotesque to the point that he is considered a scrappy.
 * 6) Like most Starscreams, he was a huge punching bag, making him a Butt-Monkey.

The Only Redeeming Quality

 * 1) In the first Transformers movie, he had a more commander-worthy personality and was more competent than he is in the later 2 movies.
